The compressor map shows it's better everywhere... Where are the 3076R are only different up the higher boost end!

ok not identical, but not hugely different, the results from that subaru thread show a similar thing. Most the gains are to be had at high boost levels.

50lb/min pretty much all the way through the pressure range is fairly significant, considering that translates to around 50hp!

so is any one actually running any of the new GTX turbos,

inparticular the GTX35 on a 26?

Can pretty much get the whole kit for 3700 ... includes turbo, manifold, wastegate, water lines, gaskets etc, just need a dump pipe and intake

sounds alright to me

GTX3076R doesn't look like a big enough step to justify itself and the GT3076R is a little small for a 3litre, anyway :P

I'm not sold on the GTX turbos yet, and await the EFR7670 with interest...

Given you don't still have the stock turbo it seems that you aren't JUST after response, have you driven something with an RB30 in it yet?

haha touche! my setup as is makes me want more response... i'll be checking out al's car before i make a 100%

Haha I try ;) I think folks underestimate the things, RB30s tend to bring spool down 500rpmish which is what people mostly seem to pay attention to, but its worth remembering that the spool is on a bigger engine too - so even if you had a 500rpm laggier turbo on the RB30 it'd argueably *feel* as responsive as the more responsive turbo on the RB25, trick is its actually that much more responsive.

Terrible use of English, but might still make sense? I reckon I'd find a GT3076R annoying on an RB30 after having one on an RB25, and a GT2835 isn't THAT much different to a GT3076R really. For what its worth a twin scroll T04Z on an RB30 makes my car feel like a laggy sack.

Definitely experience it for yourself, but the difference between the two motors is much more than saying "half a litre" justifies.

I have read this post 3 times and my head hurts.

Why would you find a 3076 on an RB30 annoying? too linear and not enough of a hit?

I've encountered some results from a GTX3582R which I know the conservatives and such forth on here will potential throw toys at - don't shoot the messenger please. This is a "full retard" EVO running running 13:1 compression and race gas on around 30psi. Its stock displacement and clearly not set up for low down torque so much as going apesh1t:

Apesh1t achieved, the most generous that reading could be is crank hp which is still mental for a T3 flanged turbo which spools anywhere near that quick - laggy on a 2litre but an RB30 would make it perfectly useable.

I think that's a great result.

It still has a good 3k of usable power after the bullshit steep ramp. Though you wouldn't want to get caught below the boost threshold.

Dunno that it'd work too well on an rb30. Remember you have to keep the revs below 4k becasue it's only a truck engine.

S2000 and GTX 3076 with Tial .82 hsg

http://www.s2ki.com/...c=788561&st=875

Thats very,very impressive for 1bar and pump fuel.

And looking at the 500hp graph, it certainly shows there is much more left in it. Doesnt dive over at all.

Ill be doing a direct bolt off/on comparison between the GT35 and GTX35 in the coming months.

thats got to be predicted flywheel. the GTX35 flows about the same as a T04Z and thats not capable of 920@ the hubs.

Probably flywheel though usually it says it and you see a TCF field, but even then 920hp at the fw is taking nothing from it

You're trolling right? Either that or a retard? Truck engine? Don't go over 4k?

    • Well, the trouble with that ^^ is: The configuration shown is absolutely a 1-way, not a 1.5-way. There is no way that a 1.5-way can be said to offer LSD action only on acceleration. If Nismo cannot get that right, then it is impossible to believe their documentation. That ^ is not a 1.5 way setup. That is a 1-way.   And so now I have allowed all doubts to flourish and have gone back to look at the MotoIQ video. I originally made the mistake of believing him when he said "this is a 1.5-way" at the ~6:10 mark. Because what he did was take the gear assembly out of the 2-way opening and just rotate it one place to the left to drop it into the 1-way opening. When he dropped it in there, the cam was "backwards" compared to the correct orientation shown in all other photos of that config. The flat shold have been facing the 1° ramp side of the opening, not the 55° ramp side. And I thought, "gee that's cute", but I was concerned at the time, when he put the other ring back on, that the gap between the rings looked like it was wider then in the 2-way config. And then I said a lot of things in my long post on Tuesday that could only make sense if the guy from MotoIQ was correct about what he'd done. BUT... I have now done my homework. I grabbed a frame of the video with the 2-way config, and then grabbed another with the "1.5-way" config, snipped out the cam and opening of that frame and just pasted it direct on top of the 2-way config. I scaled it so that the triangular opening was almost exactly the same height in both. AND.... the gap between the plates is wider with the cam installed in the triangualr opening backwards. That is.... it cannot go together that way. There would be massive force on the plates all the time, if you could even reassemble it.  So, My statement on the matter? The Nismo diff is actually only a 2-way and 1-way. There is no 1.5-way option in it, regardless of what they say. Here's a photo of a real 1.5-way ramp opening from Cusco (along with the 1 way option). And the full set of 1 through 2 way options from their racing diff, which is not same-same as what we'd typically be using, but...the cams work the same. A little blurry, but it comes from this Cusco doc, which is quite helpful. AND.... Cusco do in fact do what I suggested would be sensible, which is to have rings that do 1 and 1.5, and 1.5 and 2. Separately.  
    • Welcome Adam. Car looks great!
    • "With a 1.5-WAY, the LSD is effective only during acceleration."
    • Well it wasn't as easy as I thought.... and it also wasn't in my original manual which I did end up finding. They discuss the process in the Nismo catalogue though and it requires slight machining. Page 145.  NISMO PARTS CATALOGUE 2020
    • I'm an idiot, my intercooler is rated for 1000hp. I had clicked on the wrong product. Knowing the delta P would be nice, but I'm doubtful I'll do it. Now as for an EMAP, that would be great and I'll get around to it eventually but from my findings in my last post, I'm considering a turbo swap now.
