yeh its works , depending on engines and if its doesn't surge like a mofo. Sometimes all it adds is lag, and it might just out power the smaller comp wheel right up the top of the power curve, whereas 90 percent of the curve is stronger with smaller comp wheel. That $200 hi-flow used to need a $800 boost controller to stop it breaking in half..lol

it was quick, but never stable!.And the surge..oh the surge, it surged under 4000-4500rpm like crazy... I know because i took Boostd in his first ever turbo car and got him hooked in 1998..lol, I have to spoken to Stao a little bit to , he's tried it the other way aswell, when he has been forced to use tighter turbine housing.

all interesting, but generally needs to be tested engine depend, the 3540/66 had been tested a fair bit, 6 boost was saying it doesn't make much more power on 4 litre ford motors as they run out of exhaust flow,

As a guide on a decent breathing single cam Rb30, you would have to run over 30psi, to have a hope of beating the 3540 comp wheel(vs 66 conversion) curve anywhere.

cheers

darren

thats the wheel sizes, physical housing sizes lol....

the t67 has a tiny little exhaust housing and a giant compressor housing. do the maths.........

Sorry I didn't realize that's not what you meant but yeah I get it now

Totally agree, the weirdest and worst combinations in theory can often be used well in practice on the right motor.

hey guys somethings come up and I'm having to bail on my project...

so anyone wants my Kando sl2 with modded housing and Tial gate all brand new never used 1000$..

I will even throw in the 1O mm spacer and 3.5 inch fujitsibo exhaust if you want it..

you wont be dissapointed....unlike me :(

Sorry to hear mate... Was looking foreward to seeing your results.

PM Sent

ARTZ, you make me sad.

i would've purchase your whole setup if only you put it up earlier. maybe convince handaldo to buy it all off you lol

hope it all goes well for you mate.

I actually looked u up straight away cause I wasn't sure if you bought one yet..sorry dude.. >_<

Ah that sucks!

Although that is a really cheap deal for a bolt on tubo kit, actually it's a steal :thumbsup:

aahhhhhhhhh........ok f**k it.....

I'll finish what I started, on the cheap..then if I'm still sick of it, I will sell it...

sale on hold till further notice... :whistling:

one Q...will 550 nismos cut it...???

I know most are running the 740s but how much headroom is there??

    • I know why it happened and I’m embarrassed to say but I was testing the polarity of one of the led bulb to see which side was positive with a 12v battery and that’s when it decided to fry hoping I didn’t damage anything else
    • I came here to note that is a zener diode too base on the info there. Based on that, I'd also be suspicious that replacing it, and it's likely to do the same. A lot of use cases will see it used as either voltage protection, or to create a cheap but relatively stable fixed voltage supply. That would mean it has seen more voltage than it should, and has gone into voltage melt down. If there is something else in the circuit dumping out higher than it should voltages, that needs to be found too. It's quite likely they're trying to use the Zener to limit the voltage that is hitting through to the transistor beside it, so what ever goes to the zener is likely a signal, and they're using the transistor in that circuit to amplify it. Especially as it seems they've also got a capacitor across the zener. Looks like there is meant to be something "noisy" to that zener, and what ever it was, had a melt down. Looking at that picture, it also looks like there's some solder joints that really need redoing, and it might be worth having the whole board properly inspected.  Unfortunately, without being able to stick a multimeter on it, and start tracing it all out, I'm pretty much at a loss now to help. I don't even believe I have a climate control board from an R33 around here to pull apart and see if any of the circuit appears similar to give some ideas.
    • Nah - but you won't find anything on dismantling the seats in any such thing anyway.
    • Could be. Could also be that they sit around broken more. To be fair, you almost never see one driving around. I see more R chassis GTRs than the Renault ones.
    • Yeah. Nah. This is why I said My bold for my double emphasis. We're not talking about cars tuned to the edge of det here. We're talking about normal cars. Flame propagation speed and the amount of energy required to ignite the fuel are not significant factors when running at 1500-4000 rpm, and medium to light loads, like nearly every car on the road (except twin cab utes which are driven at 6k and 100% load all the time). There is no shortage of ignition energy available in any petrol engine. If there was, we'd all be in deep shit. The calorific value, on a volume basis, is significantly different, between 98 and 91, and that turns up immediately in consumption numbers. You can see the signal easily if you control for the other variables well enough, and/or collect enough stats. As to not seeing any benefit - we had a couple of EF and EL Falcons in the company fleet back in the late 90s and early 2000s. The EEC IV ECU in those things was particularly good at adding in timing as soon as knock headroom improved, which typically came from putting in some 95 or 98. The responsiveness and power improved noticeably, and the fuel consumption dropped considerably, just from going to 95. Less delta from there to 98 - almost not noticeable, compared to the big differences seen between 91 and 95. Way back in the day, when supermarkets first started selling fuel from their own stations, I did thousands of km in FNQ in a small Toyota. I can't remember if it was a Starlet or an early Yaris. Anyway - the supermarket servos were bringing in cheap fuel from Indonesia, and the other servos were still using locally refined gear. The fuel consumption was typically at least 5%, often as much as 8% worse on the Indo shit, presumably because they had a lot more oxygenated component in the brew, and were probably barely meeting the octane spec. Around the same time or maybe a bit later (like 25 years ago), I could tell the difference between Shell 98 and BP 98, and typically preferred to only use Shell then because the Skyline ran so much better on it. Years later I found the realtionship between them had swapped, as a consequence of yet more refinery closures. So I've only used BP 98 since. Although, I must say that I could not fault the odd tank of United 98 that I've run. It's probably the same stuff. It is also very important to remember that these findings are often dependent on region. With most of the refineries in Oz now dead, there's less variability in local stuff, and he majority of our fuels are not even refined here any more anyway. It probably depends more on which SE Asian refinery is currently cheapest to operate.
