If they're like the 4-9 the exhaust manifold they link the outer and the inner pairs of exhaust ports ie 1+4 aqnd 2+3 .

That way when the inline four cylinder goes through its 1-3-4-2 firing sequence it alternates between each side or outlet port of the exhaust manifold . The idea is that each cylinder vents into an area of low pressure because the last vented into the other side of the manifold and turbine housings scroll . This way more of the exhausting cylinders thermally excited exhaust energy (gas velocity) is screaming into the turbine blades .

Where you have a single outlet manifold and single passage or scroll turbine housing all cylinders vent into the common manifold/housing meaning the average pressure inside it is higher , because of this each venting cylinder is venting into an area of higher pressure and can't exert as much energy or gas velocity into the turbine blades because of the lesser pressure differential .

You can reduce the pressure in a single scroll system by increasing the size of the turbine housing but you lose turbine response by doing it .

Twin scroll systems allow you to use bigish A/R turbine housings without much of the turbine lag so they are a win at low to medium as well as higher engine revs .

Interestingly the Americans have come up with a torque number that they try not to exceed because if they do they bend connecting rods and break pistons - on std 4G63T engines anyway . I think its something like 400-420 ft/lbs they try to torque limit them too and go looking for cams revs and Hp numbers instead .

Personally I like the idea of those sorts of torque numbers at 3-3500 revs because it makes a Lancer with AWD and sort of short closish ratio gearing a slingshot off the line and they pull like buggery in every gear .

My 6 is mechanicaly std ATM but after the first time I chased a bike off at the lights and nearly ran over it I learnt not to do that .

A .

Um BTW , a correctly phased inline six cylinder twin scroll exhaust manifold links 123 and 456 . This is because an inline sixs firing order is 153624 and to alternate evenly between exhaust events thats how the manifold has to be . Its also done this way with parallel twin turbos on an inline 6 for the same reasons .

12cm evo X housing, now were talking business.

I think a call to GTP is in order... I need more info re reverse rotation turbos. There has got to be a reason why they are able to use SL2 and 20G wheels in the reverse rotation housings..

Need to get back on topic, poor Kando!

Try the evo forums mate,

They love those FP turbos !

Good mate of mine is about to put an FP RED onto his V, will be interesting to see the outcome.

At this point thinking around 300WKW with fairly reasonable response.

Will post back when we have data.

those are the ones

massive fan of trust

have had 2530 with a single 20g

WOA, YOU!

How did you find the 20G on power for a 6?

How much power did it push? And what exhaust wheel were you running with what size rear housing?

Sorry for the attack, just trying to gauge as much as I can on the 20G topic.

Thanks,

yea i have heard of people running 270rwkw

but on this engine ( tired a bit... blowby)

the most the poor little sucker could muster was 250rwkw

ran 114mph in a 1650kg car so sounds about right

in the zed it made just over 520rwkw with two of them thorugh a auto( allegedly)

felt dam fast the zed

youve not seen the results from Simon? lol

Im tempted to go the kando SL2 20G but Im not sure if I should try something outrageous and go for an evo twinscoll housing to match.

Your results do give me some confidence that it would be an epic turbo for the RB25, 250kw@12psi and 12psi by 2300 would probably be no more than 1000rpm worse on a 2.5L (more like 500 I think) and would easily push the same figure with an extra 2psi. Evo dudesssss push these things to 1.8 bar NO WORRIES (actually they do that with the stock 16g too).

Majorly considering a simple T3 IW 8cm job when its available.. Kando = winnarr

Love the sound of these turbo's, very impressive!

Finally a turbo that bridges the gap between cheap ebay turbo's and expensive jap ones!

My mate put me onto this thread, but I'm still unsure of which one I should run:

rb30det with stock (healthy) internals....would be happy with 260-310 responsive kw's.....going in an s13 skidder (100% track car)

td06 or t67? 20g or 25g? 8cm, 10cm or 12cm?

If your that excited maybe just read through the thread.

The t67 with 10cm rear that Simon is running would be a great turbo for an RB30 although you will make more than 310rwkw pretty easily. Will you be running an aftermarket manifold and external wastegate?

Just a quick question, as I have recently purchased one of these turbo's (Identical to SimonR32)

One of the first things i noticed after taking it out of the box, was the fact that there was a small amount of shaft play. As in, you can move it from side to side (not enough for the blades to touch the housing) but they come very close.

So my question is, is this sort of thing normal for this type of turbo? SimonR32, was this the case with yours?

Or should I be sending it back for a replacement...

    • Haha luckily we don't have emissions, inspections, or any laws against power adders here. They only thing they somewhat keep an eye out for are ridiculously loud exhausts. 
    • Just wanted to pop in an update on my setup. The CD swap has been great, I love the mazworks housing for the overall simplicity. I ended up sealing my trans tunnel with a thin sheet of aluminum reused some of the holes on the trans tunnel, and laid some window sealing EPS foam around the edges. Works great, really quieted things down and sealed up the car.  As for the power comment. Right now I am also running about 650whp. with the way the bell housing is attached to the face of the transmission I have zero doubts it would be fine, mainly because the input shaft and main shaft bearings are seated into the bell housing adapter. This means the load is NOT on the bolts to maintain the power, rather into he casing of the bell housing; Yes the bolts are doing some work there, but with both shafts locked in zero worries.  End of the day, the Mazworks solution is the easiest and safest. no need to take your trans to a shop to get milled perfectly, it fits with minimal clearancing, and you can use all your existing clutch and flywheel.  Driving wise the CD has been great compared to the big box, I'll probably swap my final drive at some point. The serial 9 shifter is gooooood, my only qualm is how tight it is, it takes a fair bit to get use to, 5th and 6th are a bit eh/hard to find at times, but maybe I need re-adjusting, and I think my clutch master is very tired and needs a rebuild. 
    • If you are keen, have a look at my build thread. Car is for sale for the right money or straight swap for a F80 M3 LCI.
    • Welcome mate.  No point in over thinking it, buying any one of those cars you mentioned is not a smart or logical choice with the availability of many "better" (re price to performance) cars available to you.  The heart wants what the heart wants, buy whatever it leads you too.
    • Hey everyone! Im so grateful to be apart of this community and ill do my best to be apart of this. Firstly, i'm not disclosing my real name due to in real life circumstances surrounding my privacy and public image (sorry lol) Secondly, The only thing personal I am willing to share is that I'm from Sydney and a descendant of one of Sydneys largest mortgage firms. I got gifted my first ever car, a 2022 Porsche Cayenne and I love it to death. Ive been driving it for about 5 or 6 months now and honestly Im so grateful for my parents for gifting me this vehicle. However recently I've been working my ass off to afford my second car (which I need help deciding soooooo community help me out please?). Once decided, im planning to try modify it myself. Recent I've been thinking about getting a Skyline, particularly a 25GT or GT-V, yes I know overrated as hell, but I'm also considering a Chaser which I recently came to love. However my dream is to one day own a 180SX (So hard to find clean versions and im not really into importing).  Lastly before I send this off, I want to apologize if I sound tacky or pretentious. I try not to and want to genuinely learn from everyone and anyone. (Im no expert in this area) Thanks for reading!
