just looked all over it and there is no numbers unfortunately :ermm:

so why dont these housings flow if they are supposedly bigger than the .63 but smaller than the .82 in theory wouldnt that be a good happy medium between power and response?????

Im lost :wacko:

Mick I went over this before you bought the turbo. ARR is a ratio. There is no meaningful way to compare a non-Garrett GT30 based turbine housing with a genuine Garrett housing.

It will probably top out earlier than a 0.63 if it is an AVO casting.

Hang on a minute I just found the post.

If you just ask the supplier to swap your housing for the garrett one and pay the additional you will be fine.

Honestly, we are pretty much telling you there is no point even trying that housing and seeing how it will go. You will just void its value.

The supplier wont take it back once its used and you will not be able to sell it.

I assume you got your turbo from MTQ, just call them and explain you have changed your mind about the rear housing and would like to exchange it as it is still new and unused. Im sure he will let you send the housing back undamaged and exchange it for the garrett .82 provided you pay the cost.

If your housing is worth $400 new, and the garrett $600, pay the additional $200 then pay to send it to him and send it back to you and your laughing. No more mucking about, just do it.

but will it still make good low down grunt with the .82 cos i dont wanna have to rev its tits off it to find some fun power?

Will the E85 help with boost response?

Mtq are in wetherill park which is nice and close but i bought this turbo through boostn imports so i wonder if i will still have to go through him again or whether mtq would let me deal direct??? plus id need it before next weekend hope its do-able!

Would this give me my happy medium in terms of response but eliminating the boost pressure issues i might have with this bad flowing Avo housing that i have plus make more power than it??

Appreciate some opinions :thumbsup:

you need to measure your turbine wheel to see if it has a 60mm turbine or a smaller cropped turbine. if its 60mm then go to mtq and buy a .82 garrett housing to suit a gt30 and sell/return your current housing.

with a .82 IW housing i'd expect to see 1bar of boost around 3800-4000rpm on a mild rb25

Yeah that sounds alright id be happy with that thats not too shabby at all from the .82! its stock other than all the usual bolt ons and it will be on E85 too

    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
