Been reading this epic post for hours now and only got half way through it... But after all those hours of reading i noticed not one IW setup was documented, just the "dont go there" line was dropped a few times. Considering the price of these turbos, surely if your not chasing big power numbers wouldn't they be ok?? I only ask as i have already bought a TD06H601 before i found this thread and for the convenience of standard manifold placement and comp housing inlet size fits stock intake. I will be running this turbo with the following mods until i can afford a hi mount setup. Aim to run between 16 and 20 psi boost on RB25 Neo R34 GT-T. Hoping for around 250rwkw's, going to take it to Mercury Motorsport in Brisbane for final tune.

- Bosch 550cc injectors

- Walbro 255 fuel pump

- Return type FMIC

- Apexi PowerFC

- 3.5 inch straight through exhaust

- Z32 AFM

Once i have it all installed and tuned i will post dyno sheet for anyone interested. (3-4 weeks away)

Ebay link to turbo i bought - http://www.ebay.com....984.m1439.l2649

It will be interesting to see your reuslts, and you will probably be a pioneer in doing so. If you are willing to try it out then go for it.

Like ARTZ said probably 240kw tops, but it may feel pretty nice to drive in all honesty. Who knows, maybe you can be the one to prove they arent as bad as we have been making them out to be? Afterall its all theory based at the moment.

not a theory, trent has confirmed he's tuned a few of the IW ones and they were sh*t and couldn't hold boost.

Putting aside numbers for a second. Here is a 210rwkws Hypergear R33 GTS25t on good street/track tyres.(camera car). In fronf of him is an R33 GTS25t with a Trust T67-25G setup on RE55s. And in front of him me with my TD06-20G, I think i still had the std inlet plenum on at this stage.

So you have 210rwkws/street tyres chasing 310rwkws/semis chasing 260rwkws/semis. John in the camera car is a bit mad and with slightly quicker cars in front of him does a brilliant job of hunting us down, and murders us both under brakes...but you see the acceleration isnt worlds apart...and funniest thing of all...you dont see the T67-25G R33 get near my bumper let along overtake... :whistling:

I think this vid puts the numbers people sometimes chase into perspective. Would have been real interesting if the camera car had RE55s and had the same corner speed. But an extra 100rwkws means we do get away but we are hardly leaving him for dead.

yes ive had words to justin about that :P

1:36 is his best, i reckon there is another 2 or so in it, but GTST brakes are his down fall. Next track day im gonna passenger with a cattle prod.

Yes john is mad, super consistent, nice guy and needs a bigger AFM... or not i think he enjoys the flames.

I know this but the failures are not well documented at this stage. It could be that they work OK at lower boost levels. I doubt this guy will get close to 20psi before the compressor is maxed anyway.

What size is the rear housing? I cant open them at work but I think Kando only do 8 and 12cm jobs

Some hold boost...just dont make power... utter junk. We were around 20rwkw behind from 17psi onwards and 40rwkw odd at higher boost levels. Swap out the int gate housing to ext gate and magic happens...:cheers:

But they are cheap so what the hey.

well the story unfolds...the bits Roy didnt tell...

Roy has more experience...

John has massive brakes...

Justin needs shock therapy...

a rb30 series 2 block is what they call a A8 block or if you dont know what that is its a block with the oil feed and oil return and coolant feed etc for the turbo which are just blocked off with bungs. they were used in the late VL commodores i guess holden just wanted to move on the turbo blocks so people call them a series 2 block

FWIW, Aussie R31 had the oil feed / return on all models.

LOL...The whole point of the vid was straight line acceleration...not lap times. :nyaanyaa:

I don't know Justin , I spoke to him briefly on the day when I bumped into Trent "I grew a bear lately and am hardly recognisable" . On the day he was doing a smidgen under 1:38s and then at another day he did a mid 1:36 :thumbsup: Be real keen to see how the T67 goes with more runs...I was paying attention as I have that turbo at home :yes::)

As I said I don't know Justin, but with regards to John. Thanks for the using the word experience rather that slow...lol because I think its pretty obvious John is a quicker driver than me :angry:

Well i couldn't help myself after reviewing this thread again, so i sent kando dynamics a request to swap out my kit plus the differance between the kits and postage for an exchange on the T67-25G. Hopefully the exchange is accepted, as i havn't even recieved the original kit yet. 300+ kw with great reviews is just to hard to pass up i think... But thank you all for your feedback regarding the first kit.

If any one has earned the title slow its me, im not even on the track yet, I dont even have a helmet...:laugh:

How many cars have you wrecked??

Thats the spirit :thumbsup:

Yeh, its bumpy as hell at the back under brakes....but the bigger problem is the gearbox fluid pissing out underneath the car and covering the underside of the car and rear tyres in oil :domokun: I should have known something was up coming onto the straight as the thing didnt normally wheelspin in 3rd gear like that :( But I simply didnt click and kept my foot into it.

Committed! :thumbsup:

Question for Trent (STATUS):

Do you believe the example shown for the 2871 vs L2 10cm to be acceptable as a 'rule of thumb' expectation?

The results you gave showed the L2 was just as responsive as a 2871 (am asuming .64 rear) and when the 2871 capped off at 250kw the L2 kept going to 300....

Am tossing up if I can expect the same from my own basic SR setup if I was to do a T3 10cm L2-20g with a decent manifold and gate.. The 2871 isnt too laggy when setup right (IMHO) but I am scared of how horrid a 10cm 20g might be on a stock SR.

Input would be highly appreciated :)

Kando Dynamics are willing to exchange kits for no extra charge, pretty happy with their service so far :thumbsup:

They do have good service, they have answered every question ive thrown at them and there also neg on the prices of there turbos. Even tho its "buy it now" auctions, Not that there overly expensive anyway.

    • (Rb25det intake manifold) I’m having a hell of a time trying to find the full part or part number of this coolant hardline so far I was given these (Below) but they aren’t what I’m looking for and was told it’s the IAR or aac valve but that doesn’t seem to be it either. If someone could point me in the right direction it’d be greatly appreciated. Or if anyone has it for sale that’d be great too. I have recently purchased a greddy manifold and I can’t seem to find my old one to pull it off.  (Front Heater Return / Water Pipe (under intake): Primary part: 14053‑21U10 (front return pipe assembly for R33/R34 RB25DET) Alternative listing: 14053‑21U00 (same pipe, sometimes interchangeably referenced)   Heater Feed Pipe: Listed as 14075‑04U00 or feed-related variant 14053‑AG500)    
    • This sounds cool. But, as per usual, anything really complicated like that, that I take on, constitutes a steep learning curve that I never actually "learn". I just get it working, install it and start using it. Then, when it breaks a few months later, I've got no memory of what I did, how I did it, or even the bloody IP address I gave it. I'm having more or less exactly that problem right now. My Proxmox machine was discovered to be non-responsive, and the VMs on it were ditto. Power cycle it to a stream of loud Dell beep codes - which was unpopular at midnight, I can tell you. Move it to the lounge room so I can HDMI it to the TV for a screen, see the boot messages complaining about the /PVE/data having all sorts of LVM problems, saying it needs to be fixed manually. And I'm like....great. How am I going to work out what I need to do? At least it wasn't the stupid Silicon Power SSD shat itself. Mental note for all readers - DO NOT BUY SP SSDS! They are shit. I have had one take out an entire VM setup already, and this one could have done the same. Maybe it actually has. Cheap Chinesium shitbaskets. I won't cheap out again, even on play projects with no budget. Because my time budget having to fix shit is worth far more than the cost of proper parts.
    • I do typically agree. These days even the screens most people use have more of a boot time than the main device. However, I've seen an interesting use of the RPi in vehicle, however it involves effectively building your own OS and MBR, as then it boots up exceptionally quickly, as you don't have everything needing to start up, and you can then also run it up as an RTOS, while still having more compute than an Android can give for things like display, and processing. A very huge task that would be though for Duncan, I'm not sure that's his skill set (or Arduino programming and wiring) ha ha. If end goal is definitely just water cooling, Arduino would be the simpler setup especially for a rookie. If he wants extra display stuff though, bashing some code in Python on an RPi may be the better result for both systems.   Unfortunately the new device I'm building at work which runs a display, is too slow of a display for dashboard style purposes. More extreme low power, update only a couple of times a day type system
    • I don't like "actual computers" for in car use. They take time to boot up, have OS annoyances, and so on. Arduinos etc are ready to go a few seconds after power on, don't mind being agressively powere cycled, because everything is non-volatile, don't mind being shaken and stirred.
    • As Fred would tell us, it's all about interpreting the rules. It's not a water sprayer, it's a water mister... But everything else you've said, 100%! Even a raspberry Pi would be great, use HDMI out for a display, and add a raspberry Pi CANBus hat to read values out from the ECU.
