What's different about the new SS2? Will it be keeping the same response? Mine is a late 2012 unit and I'm wondering whether it's time to send it to you for a refresh.

Also I'm running mine external gated (45mm hypergate) with a 25/30 neo setup. Made 265kw on 10psi and 292kw on 13.5psi.

Going for retune on Tuesday and upped gate spring to 14psi and will be running more boost now. Will post back with results ;)

^ oneday il be calling on you for guidance on how to build a 2530 neo, if wer following trend it should make more power with no loss in response.. i think thats what hes done across his range of turbos lately

engineering a new ss2 at moment. should easily take over 300rwkws on pump. will up result shortly. ss1pu makes similar power then 21u but makes alot more torque. there is also a new turbine wheel on thd ss1pu this year, should up hp by 15kws with no lose in response.

Still very much enjoying my 2013 SS2. If I ever decide to upgrade I'd definitely look into this low mount (or the ATR45SAT if it fits :) ), together with an external gate off the stock manifold.

I reckon the NEO might need some forgies at that point though...

Stao is it possible to modify a JJR bellmouth to work without an IWG or is it best to replace the dump/front when going ext gate?

Neo on forgies oh that would be alot of fun.

When i swapped over to external gate i had my bolton and acuator asembly sent back to stao and he sent the vband housing and then you just need to put a vband on your dump and get the gate housing made on the mani.. definitely worth doing!

Nice!! So the exact same turbo but with ext gate? Would you have a dyno sheet before and after by any chance?

I have an ATR45SAT sitting at home now waiting to go in. I'll probably install it in the next week or so then it gets tuned around this time next month so I can tell you how it goes. Supposed to fit on the low mount stock manifold also.

Watch this space and I'll update you when It's done

SS1PU will work fine it doesn't work with a small exhaust housing like the 21U units. So it will be fine.

The new SS2 uses a different exhaust side, on dyno, compare to the previous model, its been able to take more boost with more timing. I'll still still be aiming at 20psi by 3800RPM in 4th. For predicted end result it will be some where close to 340rwkws internally gated on pump 98 fuel and close to 400rwkws on E85 externally gated.

With the capacity of most common 3 inches diameter exhausts, I will be making some small bits and accessories to come around it.

Do you have a picture of the exhaust housing?

hory shet... makes me want to take out my SS2 and throw it in the bin and get the new version haha..

I'm pumping 24 psi into mine and the exhaust housing glows nice and red to only makeep 340kW. And by that time, my intake air temp is over 60 degrees lol

ss1pu is for 1450 same as ss2. for a r34 because of the cams and higher engine comp, down low torque doesnt change alot between the two. I will be running an ss2 instead.

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
