what gear was 18psi at 3000 on ya gt? My GTX is prob 3800 @ 21psi second gear internal gated on 98 :whistling:

yeah im thinkg bout the .82 external wastegate 56t on bp98 i used to have a 3071 that made 280rwkw on 18psi but wasnt a very big pull but now i have a different rb25 which is alot healthier

mate if you want an easy 300 go the kando t67

it is arguably similar in response to a 56T 3076 but is $800 delivered and actually gets about 330kw on 20psi

800 will buy you a 3076 housing... its good value and theres a massive thread on them now. please read it.

I think the T67 is a fantastic turbo but needs an external wastegate and really should have an aftermarket exhaust manifold compared to the 3076 which does not need either so puts it really in the next category up.

never really updated this. well here it was as of a few weeks ago. currently sourcing bigger gate springs and going e85 in the next week or so

Interesting on your graph - it almost looks like the 56T is actually surging around the 3000rpm mark.

My GT3040 (the 600hp one) did a similar thing, wasn't quite as severe but it also started to ramp, drop away a little, and then re-ramp again.

It was *barely* audible unless in specific conditions, but it was hurting the performance none the less.

Did you notice any surge around that point with the 56T? It's certainly not known for it!

Be interesting to compare our setups once mine is on E85 next week as our setups are similar :thumbsup: when are you seeing full boost and what size are your injectors mate?

Ive got 850cc injectors a tomei pump and a GTX3071R internal gated

Full boost in 4th is about 3200. Didnt change at all when I went e85. And I'm using nismo 740cc and Bosch 044 pump.

Nismoid; Mines the 52t. I don't notice any surging

The comparo graph though (from page 3) the blue line vs the red line.

Ah mis-read, so it was a 52T just a housing change.

The blue graph has very "suspect" dips that usually come with surge as mine was exactly the same, interesting either way :)

If ya didnt notice then might have just been tune or something.

yep.

also it seems its down about 20rwkw at the 3080rpm marker over both other set ups.

Martin did say it kept wheel spinning around the 3000rpm mark, would that do it also.?

Well wheelspin would cause those dips

But it shouldn't be turning tyres if strapped right or the ramp rate gets changed to suit

This tune was done on federal RSRs. The last one on potenza re001s that were a lot wider.

The only thing that's changed between then is the fuel and the rear tyres. And last time it had no dips. Might just go back with the potenzas and see how it goes

  • 3 weeks later...

in the interest on science, and because i love changing turbos, i recently pulled off the 52t .63 rear and put on a 56t .63 rear just to see what the difference was for the turbo coming on, with unsurprising results. The difference seems to be negligible with boost coming on 150rpm earlier back to back. same dyno etc.

next step is to go to a .82 rear and see if that will solve the surge issue. as the .63 really didnt like it when i went e85 and whacked some boost into it

will be doing this next week

    • 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?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
