Overrated mate save your money. Your response looks better than an 8374 for sure.

I have never seen a convincing dyno chart for and rb26 or 28 yet even though these things have been out forever.

Will be interesting to see piggazis and Harrisracings when they eventually post a chart.

Sorry for the delays in my project, but I'm back on it and set my goals to have that thing dyno'd within 45 days. I'm trying like hell! Trust me, I want to see an 8374 efr dyno on a stroker as well :)

theres an RB30 + 8374 dyno chart from Chris Vautier (new zealand) somehwere in this thread: http://www.gtr.co.uk/forum/154737-sub-boys-r32-gt-r-then-now-66.html

Holy smokes is that really 630 whp on PUMP GAS?!

Well I'm hoping to hit my target of 550 whp on pump gas. Any more is Lagniappe as we say down here :)

Anyone running one of the newer T4 TS 6758's on an SR20? Can't find tooooo many people around with the setup. Thinking about going low mount T4 TS manifold and 6758 T4 TS 0.80 turbo (stiffer spring on internal wastegate) on my S15. It's daily driver. Some weekend warrior, and occasional track day. I'm all about that response. Poncam, Z32, 2000cc injectors, Forged engine, RB25 gearbox, Nistune (e85 Fuel).... was hoping for 300rwkw, maybe full boost around 3500rpm. Which seems to be a fantastic package, especially with that off boost and 'transient' response the BW are known for. Can anyone speculate on results of the TS 6758??

I know everyone totes the 7163, and I do love it, was considering in T4 TS version... however I just think I'll end up netting ~350rwkw which I just don't think is useable in an s-chassis.

"slow is smooth and smooth is fast" - some guy probs a while back.

Agreed that housing is more compact in everyway. My boost solenoid (8374) is out on the edge of the compressor housing as well. While mine fit well like it is, I bet the 90 degree is a better fit with piping.

these new BW 90 degress housings? Seems like would make pipe layout on an SR20det (S15 in my case) alot easier.

agreed- for SR20 s-chassis that 90 degree housing B1 turbo posted above can help clean up pipe routings. They are much more expensive housings however

for the bigger 8374 and 9180 turbos, these already come with an optional vband you can add a 90

I have not tried the TS6758 but I agree it may be a perfect combination for what youre considering. You can use it with the 90 degree housing I have a beater S14 with SR20 and was running an old 6258. it works so well on a junk setup for 350hp that i dont plan to change anything

Holy smokes is that really 630 whp on PUMP GAS?! Well I'm hoping to hit my target of 550 whp on pump gas.

yes that is pump gas, on a built/prepped RB30. 550whp seems reasonable if the wastegate actuator is properly sprung and everything is in order.

Geoff, does full race have these in stock?

We stock the entire line of EFR turbos, the 90 degree comp covers are en route to us

AFAIK, They've only released the 90° housings for the 6258, 6758 and 7163...

100% correct. 8374/9180 already have a vband outlet that can serve as a 90 addition easily

Can't believe I have this turbo and didn't notice that? Do you simply machine off the end and then use a 2.5" vband? Does someone sell a 90 with flanged connection already?

I'd really interested. My piping does fit well but it is all silicone. That outlet really gets tight near my shock tower.

yes that is correct @harrisracing -- cut the end off and its a standard vband. the same as any Cummins/Holset turbo and many other BW or MHI turbos. There are cast 90 degree vbands available for this application but you could also just but a vband and weld the intercooler pipe to it

    • Yeah i get what you mean. Mine thought i wouldnt mind being a bit quieter overall as well as have the drone taken out is more what i was trying to say. Im going to start with a mid muffler, and go from there 
    • I'm struggling with a similar issue on an RB26. Make sure you know whether it's volume or resonance. Mine seemed louder when cruising compared to at idle. I downloaded a decibel meter for my phone. Take my less than scientific results with a couple grains of salt, but the decibels were the same at idle and at cruise. Mine seems to be a resonance problem. At 2500-3500 rpm, the sound is different and "louder" to my ear. I think it's vibration from the pipe, the car body, the floor or something creating tone. Anyway, consider that it may not be strictly a volume problem.
    • Does this count as a time trial as well? I got all gold in the master super licence (1 lap time trial) and received a McLaren MP4/4 for my trouble.  If anyone else has done this, did you ride the wall right around the first long right hander at Lake Louise snow track to get gold? I couldn't do it any other way... best I could do without riding the was was within 2 tenths of the gold time.
    • I definitely get the low power, sporty car to drive to smash gears but not be doing eleventy million miles an hour! It makes all the normal drives fun!   Rev match tune sounds like the funs! I didn't know the NC had a DBW throttle!   As for me, still have the Skyline, it still has the Barra in it. It's been pushed to the side of the workshop at the moment. Pretty much waiting on me finishing the wiring, and dropping new fuel lines in. Got myself an ACDC Tig end of last year so been teaching myself TIG welding to build a few things for the Skyline. The missus wrote off her GTB liberty at the end of last year, and got it back on salvage rights stupid cheap. It's also still registered, so will mean easier for me to take to the track already done most of the panel damage, just playing "clear the workshop" to make space to pull the motor and box out, fix some oil leaks, replace the clutch, and replace a few minor broken things.  Also got a Lathe at the start of the year, which is adding to the annoyance of no space, which is another reason I'm trying to build things to get more space, to get the Lathe back in a final home for it. It's a BIG lathe, can turn a 355mm diameter, and 1metre between centres... Got it at a steal! So between it and the TIG and old MIG welder, I'll be fabbing some fun little shit up But we've had a lot of shit stuff happening at home, so it's slow going getting things done. But one step at a time!
    • I love Catalunya.  Got a 1:54.632. The AMG is a hoot.
