I thought that the high flowed rb25det turbos were a lot more responsive than the stock one? Would that mean better low end torque?

Greater amount of energy is required to turn larger wheels up to speed, there for laggier. However bigger wheels are capable of flowing greater amount of air through both housings, let the engine burn more fuel and makes more power that way.

That makes sense.

Got my 34 gtt dyno tuned with the G3 turbo (the one rated for 450). Dyno reads 8% lower than actual numbers. Car made 309 whp on 14 psi. Stock manifolds. 650 injectors. Walbro pump. Mac valve boost controller. Haltech ecu.

Is your VCT working?

That curve looks like your VCT isn't engaging

That’s a good question. I’m not sure. It feels laggy for sure. How can I diagnose that?

Unplug it and see if the car makes a difference 

Might also needs a stronger actuator with the right preloading. With older 2019 built bush G3 units, BB upgrade or 21U housing down size makes a pretty decent gain in response as well.

I know this one’s the BB one. My tuner did make mention about the actuator. I am curious about the VCT as well

Updating results from our ATR43SS-1 turbo in T3 .63, OEM bolt dump pattern. Not a big number but pretty sweet for a stock Rb20det. Car's managed to pull 220rwkws at 20psi, perfect boost control internally gated with EBC and excellent mid top end power band as they usually skydive after 5.5K. Usual bolt on supporting mods and inlet plenum and factory location exhaust manifold. Pump 98 fuel was used (Ron 93).

I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here.

a quick run down of what the car is:
Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has:
Stock bottom end
Haltech 1500 ECU
5-0 motorsports trigger kit
Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers
Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams
G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated
ARP Head studs
MLS head gasket
1000CC ID injectors
Walbro 450L Fuel pump
Front mount cooler kit
JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended)
Pump 98 fuel
Hub Dyno tune

So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.

Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus.

Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar

(Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)

We've been working on all sort of different types of turbos with majority of work load shifting towards Euros in the last few years. The Skylines are more of a hobbie then a daily, at least its like that in Australia. I will update photos from some of our latest RB jobs. Whats recent is G30 turbine housing externally gated plumb back kit using T3 .83 geninue housing. It can be made to suit G35, G40 and G42 units. External gate optional.

That’s a beautiful setup Tao,

Have u done any development with the new Turbosmart 40mm electronic straight gate, especially in this G30 configuration?

Sharing results from recent Liberty Walk R35 GTR, since they are still considered as somesort of a V36 Skyline. We do them turbos too. This are high flowed SS-1 models with ball bearing conversion done. 

Car have managed to pull 485awkws @ 20Psi so far pushing limitations of factory built engine. The build list for R35 GTR enthusiasts as follow :
HyperGear high flowed stock turbos in SS1 (G25-660 specs)
Custom titanium intake pipes.
Vspec performance titanium front pipes.
Vspec performance 4" titanium exhaust.
Upgrade fuel pumps.
1200cc injectors.
Ignition coilpacks
Hks intake plenum.
Hks intercooler piping.
Greddy intercooler.

Updating results following our SR20det project. Data collected form improves future turbocharger making and high flowing services. So far differences between G and GT series turbine wheels, we are in the process of making a new turbine, the aim is for better mid top range flow without gain too much lag. 

Result is back to back comparison of G25-660 and GTX2867 spec turbochargers on the same car, nothing changed apart from turbocharger. Both tuned to knock limit from pump 98 fuel (US Ron93). GTX2867 was about 400RPM more responsive making 255rwkws while G25-660 made 17 extra Kws with wider spread of torque after 4500RPM finishing off at 272rwkws.

How does this compare to the internally gated g25-550 in terms of power production at same psi and spool

Consider it as a G25-550 in a T3 .63 rear housing. So performance wise will be very similar.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
