Nice! How hard were you pushing the last one?

My ss2 only got tuned to 18psi due to faults/leaks etc that I've mostly fixed. pulled some timing and got it up to 25 last week, almost ready for retune

Pushed the shit out of it, tried screwing 26psi through it but didn't make a single kW more. Turbo rear was glowing as bright as the sun haha. It did make more mid range torque but pointless as it bled down to 22psi up top.

Ended up only making 327kW pulled out some timing and it mad 325kW (mainline). Results did vary from another dyno I which read 340kW (dyno dynamic).

I think Tao uses a different rear housing now, because he warned me my turbo won't line up to my dump pipe now.

E85, but at the time I was tuning it was showing E72 (I run flex, car many runs 98RON).. I doubt a 10% different in ethanol would make that much of a difference in power.

they say it's on par, you would net the same results with E85 vs WMI 50/50 mix...

that was according to Yauvz's engineering mate (which is also on this forum)..

Yes it is more responsive. and can be built in to an OP6 rear housing.

Is it possible to get similar response out of an OP6 housing? Or is the 21U more suited?

10psi by 3250RPM and full boost by 3500RPM looks pretty nice (from the 21U). The biggest issue with all the OP6 high flow charts I've seen is boost comes on at 4000RPM which is far too late in a street car...

Specifically my question is can the OP6 housing produce "enough" power while retaining factory-like response. The standard OP6 boost response on my GTT is fine. A high flow coming in at 4000RPM would not be.

By "enough" power I mean a nice fat curve across the rev band. I care more about the total area under the curve than the peak value.

I'm sure a BW EFR turbo could be at full boost by 3500 their only a bit more than a hiflow.

unfortunately cost as much as our GTS-t rust buckets.

They have some with compressor covers that have a 90 deg bend cast into them too.

So $3K for the best turbo on the planet and $800 for a hiflow.

    • Nah, don't bother doing any actual measurements on the car. Just go ask the inter-f**king-net.
    • I currently have 18 x 9 +30 on the front with 18 x 10.5 +38 on the rear. Absolutely regretted it. Ended up putting 15 mm spacers on front and 25 mm spacers on the rear. Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers. Definitely would go more aggressive then what you were originally planning. Keep in mind my guards are rolled and cars fair low so you might possibly need to roll guards depending how aggressive you go and how low the car is. Im not an expert but the 18 x 8.5 +25 18x9.5 +30 Sounds like it would sit much better.
    • Hey guys, sorry i have been researching for a few months and absolutely cannot wrap my head around this. I am about to order some rims to fit my R34 Gtt with coilovers My original plan was to order Rota grid R in 18x8.5 +30 235 40 R18 Fronts 18x9.5 +35 255 35 r18 rears But then the thought in my head said this isnt aggressive enough. I want the most concave spokes i can get without too much of poke and scrubbing   So my thoughts now is  18x8.5 +25 18x9.5 +30   My question is will this be the most aggressive i could get it without any guard rolling and does the type of rim style affect the offset / size.   Thanks everyone.
    • Lower parts are there. On passenger seat, bright yellow bit is the release mount. On drivers, bright yellow bit is the lower buckle for the other side. My bet is lowers are tucked out of the way as much as possible for visuals.
    • I'm guessing its a 4 point harness, 3 of the 4 belts are visible. I'm guessing the hidden belt is tucked down between the seat and door.
