Has anyone heard about mounting a IHI RHC7 turbo on a RB26?

I'm searching some information like RPM for boost peak at different boost levels, maximum bhp output, feedbacks from owners...

I just finished rebuilding one and it just came back from balancing. I'm going to mount it on my forged bottom RB26. Mine is a bit king of hybrid because using a HKS T04R turbine housing.

Here is some information found on internet:

Compressor wheel inducer= 57.15mm exducer=81.91mm

57.15mm^2/81.91mm^2*100 = 49 trim

Turbine wheel exducer =62.61mm, inducer =73.66

62.61mm^2 /73.66 mm^2*100 = 72 trim

Compressor housing 2.27 inches of area / 3.31 radius = .69 ar

T04R turbine housing is T4 inlet .81 undivided

RHC7 seems to be given for 62LB/min

It has very near dimensions with power enterprise PE2220, so it could probably flow 22M3/min. A bit less than 62lb/min.

I have seen 1JZ dynos with that turbo at 550RWHP.

If some of you used this turbo or have information, please let me know. smile.gif

Digging out this thread.

I have been looking for weeks for information about the exhaust housing of this hybrid turbo.

It looks sooooo small! And nothing is written on it.

And it's still a real T04 flange!

it's smaller than all T04R turbine housing I have seen and way smaller than RHC7 stock turbine housing.

In one hand the spool must be sooo quick!! In the other hand there is a risk of early choke. Luckily, the exhaust wheel is damn big, 74/63mm 72trim.

The only info Y have is it's stabilo written "HKS N°=40" on it. It has real T4 flange and 3" 4 bolt outlet.

Have you already seen this kind of turbine housing?

ihi rx8 indy turbo..

the compressor cover and backplate are made from magnesium and hard anodized

the comp wheel is investment cast titanium and is ptfe coated( teflon)

inducer is 74mm,exducer is 91mm

a/r is 1.0

the turbine housing is investment cast from titanium

it uses v band clamps for manifold and outlet.

the turbine wheel is a super alloy inconel 738.

inducer is 89mm,exducer 79mm

the a/r is 1.2

looks completely different to my rhc7, your one seems to have a garrett/khs rear on it?

Mines T4 flange with some sort of weird V band rear.

From what I understand its a touch bigger than a holset hx35, CEFF1E on here has a hx35 on a stock bottom, stock cams rb30DET, 325rwkw, 19 psi, full boost at roughly 3500rpm's.

So theres a possible comparison.

I havent ran my Ihi on the rb30det yet, car isnt finished.

According to the specs, it should be nice on the 3 ltr,see how it goes I guess.

heres a pic of mine

jibe, i forgot my camera today but took some with my phone, I can MMS them to your phone if your interested?

Thanks, but I'm living in France, maybe it's not included in your mobile phone contract and would be expensive?

I can wait, it's not a problem.

If you still prefer I will send you my number by PM.

Digging this old thread.

I'm about to finish my build and now I'm close to first start.

I made measurement of the compressor and turbine wheels and imprecise measurement/calculation of turbine A/R and what I found seems a bit crazy!

Compressor wheel is effectively 82 exducer, but is 63mm inducer instead of 57!!! So that makes the compressor side a good monster though it becomes bigger than a GT3582R and closer to a T04R/Z compressor.

And the second kisscool effect is on the turbine side: the wheel is effectively some Ptrim whith 74mm inducer and 63mm exducer (same as T04R/Z), but my rough measurement of A/R on the T4 housing gave me 0.40!!!!!!! Totally retarded A/R on a RB26! I think I now understand the "HKS N°40" written on it.

Thinking about what it will look like when used, it should be a spooling monster but clearly a power and boost killer at high rev, with enormous backpressure and heat. Looking at the turbine entry, the T4 inlet becomes sooooo small inside regarding the amount of gas that are going to try to pass through it!!!!!!

So I think I'm going to try it at 1bar to see how it behaves, but I really must find an other bigger standard RHC7 housing for a more realistic use of this turbo.

Works 510, do you maybe know where I could find one?

    • This is the GTR fuel pump. Yellow shows 12V, orange shows earth. The ECU provides the earth to activate the fuel pump relay. The ECU side of teh relay will pull low when the ECU activates. This is the RB20 fuel pump. Almost the same, but a little simpler. You can see I indicated (above) where the 12V line goes down to the RB20 diagram on the overall diagram, whch shows both RB26 and RB20. This is where I show it coming in on the RB20 diagram below. You can see that the dropping resistor is handled differently. When the fuel pump control is not providing earth to the pump, the pump earths through the dropping resistor and thus runs at lower voltage (some is wasted over the resistor) and runs slower. I showed that "not 12V and not quite earth" portion of the wiring in a paler orange. The rest of the wiring that I did not colour on that little section below the pump would be orange when the fuel pump coontroller is providing earth. This drop is handled inside the fuel pump controller in the GTR. Regardless, you can see where 12V is supposed to be, where earth is supposed to be. The key on prime is via the ECU providing the pump for only a few seconds the switching off. You should be able to see that happen.
    • Yeah so when you turn key to IGN the fuel pump should run for a few seconds. If you find the fuel pump relay (and have a multimeter, and a second person) to can check the relay inputs.  One trigger pin should be either fully earthed  The other trigger pin should get 12v from the ECU for say 3 seconds when you turn key to IGN, and at all times that key is at START (note, I said this from memory, it may be the other way around, ie one pin always has IGN 12v and the earth has continuity to earth when you turn the key) One Pin should have a good battery voltage The last pin goes to the fuel pump + Also note that if the power to the relay is good, and the relay is working, it is worth checking the pump has a good earth too. There is a computer in the standard system that increases the earth resistance to slow down the pump when not required, pretty old school and it may have failed
    • All this talk about fuel and fancy ECUs, meanwhile my poor old R32 has neither.... When the ignition is turned on, should there be power running o the fuel pump constantly or just for the few seconds it usually takes to prime the pump? About to go have another look at it, have watched some YouTube vids on how to use a  multimeter and looked at some wiring diagrams but really have NFI what I'm looking for because electricity is invisible  
    • Yuh....but weren't all the supertourers, except maybe the Audis, FWD? I don't recall any of the others being AWD.
    • They ran them in Oz Super Tourers too https://www.supertouringregister.com/register/vehicle/212/ (I'm so old I remember racing with Matthew Fox) They ran them in Oz Super Tourers too https://www.supertouringregister.com/register/vehicle/212/ (I'm so old I remember racing with Matthew Fox)
