Kando Dynamics Turbo

if i owned a GTR it would have one of them attached, no ifs no buts.

Only doing it if my twin setup sells though

Man the lines and fittings they supply weigh more then the turbo Would rather save $10-15 off the turbo price to go towards some good speedflow fittings.

Keen to get home and take the T67 apart and compare the turbines

i've noticed how my kando rear housing is bolted to the chra is pretty poor, i've seen some with v-band and some with garrett style fittings but for some reason mine is different.

ARTZ/JEZ, how is your rear housing bolted to the chra?

[GTScotT]

The T3 housing you have is a Kando specific item, it bolts on like a garrett one does.

The MHI/Trust style housings clamp on... Like the MHI and Trust ones do.

No big deal, its fine.

[dori34]

oh cool, thanks for clearing that up Scott.

some progress - still got plenty of room so i rekon its possible to squeeze in a T67 down there with a large spacer

Blake should be coming today or tomorrow to do the intake, cooler piping & screamer, and finish off the dump pipe. then tune in mid-end of Feb.

Time to rip that manifold off and start again... You have all your waste gate gas coming from the 3 cylinders

[dori34]

its welded where the the turbo bolts to the manifold with the splitter still in place. which im pretty sure its the right place to fit it.

is that not the correct location?

Sorry my bad, from that other photo it looks like the pipe is all behind the splitter! All good

[dori34]

yeah it does make it look like its in a shit spot haha

[GTScotT]

should get blake to tig the splitter shut, then machine the flange surface flat again.

then use one gate on either side of the splitter...... and bolt a T3 TS GTX3071 to it.

wrong thread.. to self.. but had to say it looking at the manifold pron above (not the sexiest thing but theres an element of sex when you know it gets the job done ).

[dori34]

gonna paint it black with some high temp paint + heatshield so you won't even see it

[Bsa]

You can't get to the bottom of the mani I wanted to do that but not enough room the pipe is welded in the middle of the splitter perfect flow yes they are not very sexy but it works

[dori34]

it will be sexy after i paint it all black, so its uniform and one colour lol

You can do anything you set your mind to

Especially if you CNC a divided spacer plate to go with it.

If I ever own another skyline we will pioneer this one together

I want someone to take the tweaked log manifold with gate and then go and spend the extra $1000 on 6boost and $300 on pipng changes and report back.

Hypergear has some relevant results to that.... Hes shown where the stock manifold caps out and how he went with a stock position log.

I think the stock manifold has capped him to 320 but isnt too bad in terms of spool.

I am pretty sure the RB20 likes a manifold well before then. They really seem sensitive to back pressure and exhaust flow. The other RBs dont seem so sensitive to exhaust flow, but the little exhaust pulses of the RB20 seem to need some manifold help to spin the turbos. The full TD06-20G setups on RB20s always outpeform the bolt on setups. Even those that have had the exhaust housing gate mod or manifold gate mod

[Bsa]

My theory is the stock mani can't flow past 320 because it becomes restrictive but when the external gate is added it would allow more flow and give more power I would like to see a t67 strapped to one and see when it stops making power due to the manifold
