Guys finally want to rebuild my engine and move back to twin again, this time top mount two turbos and planing to install two KKR480 ? looking for some wise opinions

Goal is less lag, small boost with max power up to 500hp

Don't bother with high mounts.

Its a large amount of extra engineering you don't really need or want, unless of course you want high mounts for the sake of high mounts.

For below 500hp atw look at.

-7 x 2

-9 x 2

HKS GT-SS x 2

34N1 x 2

None of these will make 500 atw on pump fuel but you did say "max power upto 500"

For a proper 500 atw + possibility for alot more look at:

t517z x 2

HKS2530's

-5

HKS GT-RS

There are a large number of other options also but these are generally the more common ones.

500hp - so 330rwkw

GT-SS or Garrett -9

They are your only choice.

Putting 2x KKR480's on there is the dumbest idea I have heard in a while. 2x 480hp turbos for 500hp?

You'll probably make over 450rwkw. But it will be the most unresponsive 450rwkw+ you'd ever see as they are a terrible turbo for response in single form... Let alone having two of them. I'd say at LEAST 5,000rpm before you see anything useful.

You mean 500hp at the crank ash ?

500hp is 375kw I don't think GT-SS or -9 will get you there but definitely to 330rwkw no problems.

I wasn't sure whether he meant at the wheels or engine either .. ?

NFI either, saying '500HP' would be at the motor in the normal world.

which is pretty much spot on the -9 marker, they will make a tad more, but on target with what was asked... that's if its now rwhp of course.

either way for 500HP or 500rwhp, 2x kkr480 is ridiculous.

i suspect he said two, given he already has one, and wants to do it on the cheap... which just ain't gonna happen.

yeah the GTSS will give you a comfortable 550hp at the engine. even a bit more if you want to push them hard. for 600hp+ you want 2530s.. after that.... well there is no shortage of proven twin turbo options for GTRs.

Agree.

The only reason you would bother going highmounts is because you are using turbos so large you cannot mount them in the normal configuration Ala most of the early Japanese drag GT-R's.

There are ofcourse other engineering reasons for it in certain cases however this is not one of those times....

thanks guys for reply :) that is not my first time with masturbating with rb :) wanna proceed little bit more :):( Just wanted to know, am on the way to rebuild my engine and had single turbo, now want to see twin, what you think how much those china shit will get at 1 or 1.2 bar ? :D :D :D

they answered you above mate.

those 2 turbos will see no power and just lag up to 5000 - 5500rpm and they will make around 600hp at wheels.

maybe 2 x kkr 380's will be better for lag but it will still be laggy.

Thinking about it more, 2x 480's wouldn't be on till closer to 6000rpm i reckon at a stab.

And 380's would also be... terrible :)

I mean a -5 is "rated" at 350-380hp or whatever and they start to come good around 3800-4300rpm, the KKR's would be laggier again.

    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
