bigmikespec, just want some advice from an expert.. wat are the pros n con of having and not having the surge cover for "my" application on this turbo?

i want to run about 25-30 psi on the street on e85 and keep winding it up for race til it tapers off the power/boost curve...

If you are running a 3L definitely go it to avoid surge issues. 2.5L I'm not sure, you might get away with it, anyone got any first hand advice?

If these cars teach you anything, it's patience....

Every 6766 should have the anti surge cover!! The turbine wheel is too damn efficient. Put a back pressure guage on it and you will see.

THIS IS A POST FROM THE SUPRA FORUM BY SOUND PERFORMANCE WHO HAS TESTED A FEW ON SUPRA'S..

Edited by Ryan1200

Not necessarily; if there is low exhaust manifold back pressure in relation to boost pressure then the turbine wheel is able to utilise more exhaust gases to spin rather than the gases just build up and create back pressure.

True but if the wheel is just smaller then it is going to spin up faster anyway, so you could half the size, make back pressure ridiculous and it would spin up about 10x faster. That's why I don't really get why it is a factor in how much it is going to surge, surge is usually just too much compressor flow for the motor at x rpm.

What do you mean back pressure gauge, as in exhaust side pressure?

I agree rolls it's a bit of unusual statement to make in that context.. Maybe they have done back to back testing of the exhaust wheels and found for a given boost pressure the back pressure is much lower and spools much faster.. Who knows..

Hey gentz,

Ive been meaning to pump my mods into my motor for a while now,

BUT I keep going around in circles :(

Ive got an R34 GTR with a standard motor (stock bottom end RB26) - GTR is currently equiped with a full exhaust (which I will need to change as current setup is @ 2.5inch dump and 3 inch outlet to catback) AND a ARC custom air filter (panel).

I was either going to put in 2860-9's (twins) or now considering putting in PT 6262 BB.

- With the -9's (ill hit anywhere b/w 330kwatw to 350kw on pump fuel, 380kw+ on E85) - with support mods ofcourse (refer below)

- With the 6262 (ill hit anywhere b/w 380kwatw on pump fuel, and 420+kwatw on E85) - with support mods ofcourse (refer below)

The question IS, is running massive amounts of boost on the 6262 to produce 400kwatw+ viable on a stock motor (Im trying to avoid building the motor which has approx 50K km on it - due to extra $ required for rods, pistons etc..)

Support mods:

- Need to change the exhaust anyway to open up top end (will get 3.5 to 4 inch turbo/dump back regardless of which option)

- Already got: Haltech Platinum Pro, Tomei Adjustable Cam Gears

- Need to get: 1000cc ID Injectors, twin fuel setup + regulator, fuel rail to match injector bore, Tomei 260 camshafts (single turbo option) + Manifold + Gate, e85 equipment (sensors)

Those are the rough mods, above figures have been confirmed by Powertune in Fairfield. Though I would like to get feedback from anyone who has previously ran MASSIVE amounts of boost on these PT's on stock motor and how they are holding up (preferably on RB26's).

Thanks.

If you want to run 400kw on a stock motor reliably you will almost certainly want to run exhaust temp sensors for tuning and trim each cylinder individually, or just run it massively rich and be conservative of timing. Any detonation at that level will kill it pretty quick smart.

How good is your tuner?

Thanks for your feedback Rolls,

The tuner would be PowerTune (who have posted up a few posts/comments in previous pages).

They are most likely going to tune feeding of the sensors currently in my GTR (i.e. no new sensors going in apart from increased boost rating sensor and ethanol sensor for e85).

i would strongly advise you to get your tune checked out after to ensure everything is okay.

had my car done twice there only to find issues with the tune afterwards and ended up costing me more money in the end to fix up his mistakes.

You sound fairly switched on so I wont delve into massive detail regarding supporting mods, just search long and hard and make sure you have every supporting mod possible before chasing your power goals.

Two things I want to touch on and a recommendation:

2860 -9s will NOT make 330-350 on pump and 380+ on E85. They will make 300-330 on pump and anyones guess on E85 (quite possibly the 350 mark).

The precisions will want a lot of boost and you are risking your factory motor in the event of a minor fauxpas. For 400kw you will want to look at a 3788R, it is the replacement for 35Rish spool and more than T04Z power. You must run it in its twin scroll form.

Please read the 'who has 400kw' thread, it is the definitive answer to your questions.

Stay away from the Precision turbo option...

Keep it twin low mounts, with good pipe work and exhaust. 400rwkw cam be had around 24psi with a set of 10cm t517z trust turbo's with good response for the power.

Cheers

Scott, a Precision will be no lazier than what you suggested with more power capability, so long as you have the correct sized turbine housing

At a lazy 20psi? Please show evidence to support.

The 3788 gets up and boogies long before 30psi

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
