Hypergear Turbochargers and High flow Services Development thread


Recommended Posts

We actually build a brand new turbo core with bigger wheels, then machine your stock housings to suit it. We only use steel turbine wheels. So are you actually getting back a brand new turbo inside your factory housings.

yup i understand that but is it possible to just put a standard size steel wheel in there, ie no machining etc?

Yummy.... $1300 basically... what kind of response and power am i looking at with this rb25 highflow ?

I would say around 280rwkws with high pressure actuator. full boost by 4200RPM. be just like this one here:

(Dynosheet below is running a normal 1KG actuator)

and No we can not get standard size wheels in steel.

obviously with supporting mods.

what psi was he running?

With the high pressure actuator will i be seeing better results ? than that of the 1kg one ?

small edit : Even tho i hand you a turbo with shaft play and all that jazz it gets fixed anyway correct? so i can go buy any turbo in hindsight and still get a brand new one back ..?

With the high pressure actautor you will be seen a lot more steady sort of line with out the drop. and will be making more top end.

Once high flowed you basically get a brand new turbo back in your stock housings so it doesn't matter if your current turbo is blown or with heaps of shaft play.

The old and blown CHRA in your stock turbo goes into the bin unless you want it back.

As someone from South Australia where the inspectors will basically look for any external changes from the factory turbo to defect you - is it possible that the external of a Hypergear highflowed RB25 (R34) turbo will look identical to the factory turbo? Are there any lines that require changing? Is it possible to retain factory lines, or is it a requirement to go to something else?

I'm guessing changing the wastegate actuator would be an obvious visible difference too - so despite performance benefits, it would be better to use an RB20 (10psi) one or keep the factory R34 (5psi) one to avoid Transport SA issues?

Well visually the high flowed turbo appears to be same as the stock turbo. You can use your stock actuator. Or we can modify your stock actuators actuation bracket to suit a high pressure actuator.

Few new projects and updates for 2010:

First of all few of you already know We've started developing VARA project in Mid dec 09. Which allows us to change your turbine A/R to what ever we need it to be. Means we can now high flow your stock R33 (yes your stock 2IU turbine housing not OP6) turbos to produce 270rwkws if need to. So we are no longer boxed by the flow limit with some smaller turbine housings.

2ndly as we all aware that smaller turbine housings gives us better response but not good up top. with our Variable Air Ratio (VARA A: actuator controlled) turbine housings. We can start off with a .42 A/R till 7psi and have it increased to 0.82 on 20psi refer to boost increase. Means you can have 300rwkws with stock alike response. This response is also adjustable with a bleed valve. This method has been used on few turbocharged Porches, we will be intergrating this into Nissans.

3rdly We will be building .60 compressor housings with stock size inlets and out lets. So people are no longer required to get any "Kits" as it bolton to your stock every thing.

I will be posting photos once I get back on the 15th of Jan.

Happy new year every one.

Hi Stao,

Can the VARA turbo housings be put onto one of your already highflowed R33 G2 turbos to reach the 270kw mark or do you have to redo the whole turbo.

How much would this be?

We can modify your R33 turbine housing for lot better flow which class under the PU highflow options. So basically yes we have to modify every thing on it.

The VARA is still under development at this stage. will be ready for public soon.

Excellent result Lowrb. Please post dynosheet when possible. Thanks

And will the response still be the same but with more top end?

Nah...you'll have more lag as per a bigger turbine wheel to create more power. More power usually equals more lag when it comes to turbo upgrades :rofl2:

Until Stao gets this VARA thing happening for us :domokun:

that's what I meant Birds, same response with the VARA????

Well that's the idea behind it anyway. I doubt it'll be exactly the same as stock but it should be much better than a straightforward high flow without sacrificing top end :D

    • Just watched the video, that's wild! Could it be there's some tiny air pockets in the caliper causing unequal force when the pedal is pressed?
    • Pedal to floor is not caliper flex. Pedal to floor is hydraulic leaking/bypassing. You quite possibly stuffed the seals in the MC when you were bleeding. A common mistake the unitiated make is to push the pedal down too far when bleeding with an MC that has been in use a long time. Crud builds up on the MC wall just past the furthest it is ever pushed in use. That crud can be hard enough to damage the seals when you push the piston down past when bleeding. Might be time for a kit in the MC.
    • Just buy a software license and put the stock maps into the (tuned for a worked engine) Nistune. It is not difficult. I cannot imagine owning Nistune without owning Nistune Software. Just....how could anyone contemplate it?
    • 25Neo injectors are  3/4 length with 14mm o-rings at both ends and the Denso plug. Like these. https://www.nzefi.com/product/nissan-r34-rb25det-neo-r35-gtr-350z-370z-720ccmin-top-feed-direct-fit-fuel-injector-kit/ You can probably fit any 14mm o-ring injector you like to that manifold, provided they are not too short or too long. And even if they are too short or too long, you can add spacers to the injectors or to the fuel rail mounting legs if you really needed to. Though I'd be hard pressed to believe that you would attempt it with anything other than brand new EV14s like the ones I linked. Having said the above, if the picture of the injector you posted has anything to do with the manifold, it looks like they are specifying full length injectors. So you'd just buy the full length part number instead of the 3/4 length part number. But I can't see any mention of that injector length on that manifold's eBay page, so perhaps you should ask the vendor.
    • Hello SAU, I recently purchased an Alcon TA6 kit through a QLD company who supplies the dog bones/rotors etc. The kit has 356x36mm rotors - aluminium dog bones - TA6 calipers. I used the HEL brake lines I already have. Kit appears to be of high quality.....as much as visually i guess it can be. What I have noticed after install and pressure bleeding (and pedal bleeding) multiple times is that the calliper is flexing a decent amount when the pedal is pushed - enough that i can push the pedal to the floor as the calliper just keeps on flexing. Details: 1. OEM master cylinder @ 15/16" (BM44 - non ABS GTST) 2. OEM everything else on brake system - rear callipers etc. Just braided lines (front/rear) and the TA6 front kit 3. The TA6 calliper has ~2% smaller piston area than the OEM 4 pot sumitomo calliper - so no issue there.....i dont think. TA6 is 27/31.8/38.1 and OEM is 40.4/40.4 4. Have checked the calliper flex with car on (booster assistance) and off - same result just have to push harder with car off 5. Have unbolted calliper from the dog bone so its just resting on the disc and tested again - same thing - so flex of the dog bone doesnt seem to be an issue 6. Tried to measure pedal ratio as best i could - looks to be about 4.8:1 with some margin for error - ignoring the booster with 50kg of leg (beeeefy - but with booster probably fairly achievable) thats about 770psi of brake pressure which doesnt seem super high - but maybe it is?? So 75kg of leg = 1150psi. I guess my question is - is this normal? Alcon distributors over here have been helpful but ultimately have said its normal. I feel like modulation is bad as only the first 30-40% of pedal pressure/travel does anything. After that its a mix of flex....and maybe some extra clamp force. My old setup - Ksport 8 pots with 12 years of track work on them did not have this issue - pedal was solid. Only reason for change was a hub failure caused the disc to tear one of the callipers to bits. Thanks SAU - any thoughts/help would be appreciated. 20240303_124128 (1) (1).mp4
