Twin Td05 16g On Rb26?

[toy515]

hey guys

im thinking of going twin high mount td05 16g, just wondering what power they are good for on 17-18psi

also how laggy they would be on a standard rb26?

cheers

Did Kier Wilson run a similar setup on his OSGIKEN RB30? Might of been TD06 x 2 but that was good for a 9 sec pass on street radials.

I like the mitsu turbos personally and at 18psi you certainly have room for more boost if you want. You'd probably be looking at 500rwhp+ easily.

I have a td05 low mount kit for sale if your interested...

18-20 psi should be siliar response to a pair of T517Z 10cm and result in around 390+ rwkw

The lag on a standard rb26 will only last as long as they take to blow it up

[toy515]

The lag on a standard rb26 will only last as long as they take to blow it up

so are you saying the engine will blow up or the turbos?

the bottom end is built just the head it standard?

Dude, grow up. That is a stupid thing to say.

There have been plenty of stock engine 26 to reliably push over 400rwkw when tuned correctly. I raced a 15yo stock bottom end 26 for 2 drag seasons with nearly 400rwkw's... mid 10's. Willall's put a tdo6 kit on a stock re-build bottom end GTR with well over 400rwkw... that was 4 or 5 years ago at least.......

A correcly tuned td05 kit would actually be easier on a stock engine, as compared to smaller turbos for the same power level.

I'd suggest a set of drop in 260 deg cams to compliment them.

Obviously you will need a fuel system and other supporting mods to get the best out of them.

Considering in your other thread just a few days ago you said...

ive got hks gtss turbos at the moment ... after a single ... set up ... i want it to be responsive im only after 400-450rwhp on 17 18 psi

The answer is VERY laggy compared to what you have on there now (if it was correctly setup).

So... what is it?

400-440rwhp or 540rwhp?

Then you also said...

the reason i want to go single is because its easier to work on as the engine is in a s15 and there isnt much room,

You think two high mounts + gates + plumbing/piping is all going to be easier to work on than int gated factory mounted turbos?

How often do you think you are going to "work" on them? You shouldn't be pulling the turbos off once bolted on...

1. Your current setup (GT-SS's) is poorly setup, you have improvements to make there...

2. You've set your requirements and in less than 5 days have turned them upside down...

I'm sensing a severe case of major indicision - you really need to sit down and think about exactly what you want.

Changing your mind/requirements/goals will lead generally to a hasty decision.

If the guy wants top mounts... he wants top mounts. GTSS's arn't the b all and end all in rb26 turbo's....

If he want's top mounts, td05's are going to be about the smallest top kit he's going to find easily.

Response is relative...

Well regardless, they don't fit into "requirement" of the week, from last week.

1. A single

2. 400-440rwhp

3. Simple to work on

My point had little to do with GT-SS's/lowmounts.

[XRATED]

This thread isn't about singles, 540bhp or how hard turbo's are to work on... reguardless of what else has been posted elsewhere.

It's about TD05's...

We've all thrown around different ideas, asking peoples opinions on different setups... why not? This site's purpose is to gain from others experience and share information.

Back to the OP.

A td05 kit would be unique, powerfull and look good in a S15. Yes the td05's will take more rpm to come into positive boost than gt-ss low mounts... They will also flow -ALOT- more air/hp with much less exhaust back pressure, less shaft rpm and cooler intake charge (all will atribute to more power and easier on your engine).

If you have a built bottom end- even if you dont, 20+ psi of boost will nab you well over 400rwkw... even with a standard head. I made 398rwkw with smaller turbos on 98 pump fuel with a standard 15yo rb26.

Trust turbos produce some good numbers...

Ok then so why don't you put it in plain english then - you highlighted the "pros" nicely, what about the cons?

CON - They will be extremely laggy for the output.

Nice and clear, simple. Addresses on of the questions clearly, rather than sliding it in among "pros".

I'm yet to see a Trust Twin setup be as responsive as a Garrett/HKS setup.

Numbers aren't everything, nor are dyno sheets.

Happy to be proven wrong if you actually have proof?

Dude... I'm not getting into one of your typical keyboard warrior arguments. Especially as your a mod (you will just delete my post... yes you do.)

I did write that they take longer to come onto boost than a pair of gtss's... BUT WE'RE NOT COMPARING TURBOS! AND this is not going to be ANOTHER Trust v's HKS turbo comparison thread. You can't... they are completly different!!!!!!!!!!! I CAN prove that a td05 kit WILL make more power and spool slower than gtsss. I'm not and cant say they will spool faster or are comparitive- where did I post that?

Horese for courses...

They will however, produce the same power as a pair of gtss's at less boost, less exhaust manifold pressure and timing... thus easier on your engine.

Personal note- Nismoid, I do find you very abrasive at times around the forum.

I recall seeing in a Jap magazine an article on a car running the twin TD05-18Gs, the ones with the bigger bellmouth inlets and the thing appeared to be an animal. They looked to be equiv/better then 2530s because the manifolding and twin gates. They are similar sort of turbos to the EVO crowd so dont really understand why they woul dbe lappy, they are only 350hp turbos or there abouts

I don't delete posts unless they are fairly over the forum rule line, don't drag drivel into this. Please stick to evidence.

And... Speaking of which, where is your evidence of said setup? Come on, bit of comparo of results, get this thread going.

OP asked how laggy will they be - answer is without question - very. Results will demonstrate that fact.

I'm all for sticking to "the topic at hand", but broaden your mind a little bit here.

Take into account past questions/history/OP that appears to be asking lots of questions to further his own knowledge

Simply providing a vanilla answer won't help much at all for someone that is eager to learn and be helped.

As for less engine stress, he has a built motor already, scrap that argument already.

Hey Ash, are you calling 2530s VERY LAGGY? The 16G has a smaller compressor then the 18G. I am willing to bet that the setup would be very similar to a 2530 setup. Considering that a TD05-16G is effectively an externally gated T517Z then .... would be interesting.

Can we see a graph which proves that the will demonstrate the other side of the story while we are at it?

Lets get two graphs (doubt we will seen anything that we can accurately compare but lets see if we can) otherwise both sides are speculation.

Lets also get some compressor maps while we are at it and make some more accurate speculations.

We can look at housings / trims, bearing cores and make a guesstimation, but its still a best guess.

Trust and HKS build their turbos (bearing theories) quite different from what I understand. While the plain bearing is more volatile and supposedly not as responsive, a ball bearing provides some friction by its own nature. Tech docs suggest the cost outweighs the negatives and in this day and age why not.

But lets see who has mastered their craft, its an interesting debate and the million dollar question.

Again at the end of the day horses for courses.

this is an old generation kit, it was replaced by the T517Z internal gate kits as the results are similar yet the x gate kits were 4x more expensive.

Td05-16g specs comp (46.5mm in 60mm outer) Ex side (47.6mm and 56)

T517Z specs comp (48mm in 68mm outer) Ex side (49mm and 56)

And yet soo many crack pistons at way less power.

By all accounts the TD05-16g's should spool better than the T517Z's going by the sizes of the wheels. The piping looks like a nightmare though on some of the engine bays I have seen photos of.

cheers for the replys just wondering what are the triangle flanges called (manifold to turbo) cant find gaskets. are td06 td05 gaskets the same, manifold-turbo and turbo-dump?

cheers
