I sort of burned myself recently getting a hybrid Garrett GT BB turbo made up for the old dinosaur Subie daily - mainly because of something I didn't previously know .

In the past there has been confusion over what the differences were between GT25xxR turbos and GT28xxR ones .

How it works is that the GT25 turbine based ones use an older style 53mm major diameter 11 bladed 62 trim turbine .

The GT28 ones use a 53.8mm major diameter 9 bladed turbine in either 62 or 76 trim . For some obscure reason I'd always thought the 53.8mm 62T one was just a slightly enlarged version of the GT25's 53mm 62T one but that's not the case . I will find out later today but ATM I think the GT28 62T turbine may be a smaller trim version of the 76T NS111 turbine and most likely why the 28's small trim turbine has higher efficiency numbers than the same trim GT25 turbine .

Now this GT28 62T turbine I believe is std in the GT2854R and GT2859R/GTSS and the GT2860R-7 . What I had built was a GT2554R with the GT28 76T turbine fitted and its proving laggy on yon dinosaur flatulence four . I'd say its got a bit too much turbine for my engines exhaust gas flow so its not spinning the compressor wheel fast enough to make boost where I need it engine speed wise .

Anyhow I found a few pics of the bum end of a GT2860R-7 and a GTR spec GTSS/GT2859R so you'll know what this GT28 62T turbine looks like . Highly unlikely but if anyone has a trashed one with a usable turbine let me know .

Added two right hand pics of the old style GT25 62T 11 bladed turbines , note they can have hex head or three point stars on their centers for tightening/stripping .

Cheers A .

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.

      Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve.

      I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.

      No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.

      God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
