An update on my TD05H-18g adventure:

Installed the Kando T518Z copy today on a SR20DE+T along with a Kando SR20 manifold. The manifold was really high quality for what its worth, changed the entire sound of the car now. The TD05-18g went on without any drama, replacing the OEM S14 T28. All lined up perfect ETC.

The driving experience surprisingly has not changed dramatically. Under 2000rpm there IS a notable loss, however you only notice this when creeping away at those revs. Any level of spirited drive has a near lossless experience.

I would say the T28 is entirely progressive in its delivery, packing its best punch just before 4000rpm. The 18g seems to have equal effect from 2000rpm to 3000rpm, from 3000 to 4000 you get a significant increase in pull from the T28 and at roughly 4000rpm the power comes in thick and strong with a 'full song' effect.

I am very impressed with it so far, am very much looking forward to the full tune with double the boost.

What power are u hoping for Jase?

I have an S14 thats looking to upgrade from stock. Maybe this is what he needs.

Being Nistuned by Unigroup for this one, expecting to see 240rwkw BUT am hoping for over 250.

Have seen a couple of these doing 240rwkw with very respectable boost (16-18psi). As you know Im pretty gung ho so Im going to have them turn up the whick on this one until it starts to cap off.

I would put it as a little laggier than a disco, yet making GTRS power. For the record the delivery absolutely shits all over a GTRS and I'm expecting it will make the same power.

well to give you a idea i had a kando td05h18g on my 180sx sr20det non vct tuned by unigroup on 19psi by 4200rpm and made 231rwkw

^^^thats sounds like HKS 2530 numbers, response samish aswell

cheers

Really? I get the same boost response and more power from the bigger TD06-20G on an RB20 and people are forever telling me the SR spools turbos better then the RB20

Well its typical to what i have personally done and seen on others..Rb20 wise i have no idea, haven't had anything to do with them, i don't even like Rb25's..lol, to laggy... i like

sohc forklift motors..lol

cheers

What gear and what boost?

This is an old dyno sheet of an old tune...but paints the general picture. This is without en EBC, just straight off the gate with a bleed

But generally speaking I make over 200rwkws from 4,500rpm and in 4th gear the gate opens at 4,000rpm

well to give you a idea i had a kando td05h18g on my 180sx sr20det non vct tuned by unigroup on 19psi by 4200rpm and made 231rwkw

Well they better be ready to man up because I want more than that lol

was the 8cm i reckon on a few more psi of boost and it would of cracked 250rwkw but i didnt try as i only had 555cc injectors and had it up to 237rwkw same boost but tuner finished up on 231rwkw and it backed it up at wsid quarter mile running a 12.5 at 117.9mph with a shit 60ft of 2.19

when i changed it had barely any preload on the actuator so thats why it was a bit lazy on to boost

so its definately very similar in power output to a t518z which its the same as

my brother made 240rwkw on 21psi but with the greddy t518z

so if you really want to crack 250rwkw be willing to run above 20psi the suggested boost is 1.5bar anyway

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
