They spec the normal GTX2863 for 2000 bucks including the normal 3"/2" compressor housing for 2000 bucks, so an extra 200 bucks for a gtr style compressor housing machined out to fit doesn't seem that bad to me...

anyone have any thoughts on the response difference running GTX2863s on a 2.6 instead of a 2.8?

im trying to gauge how the'd go on mine after seeing the dyno plots on a 2.8. im guessing a similar difference between the -5 and GTX plots just moved slightly up the rpm scale?

Why bother....OK apart from Legality (which aftermarket turbos still dont cover you for).....

how did I know that video was what was in the link.

old tech twins vs new tech billet single

should have used a GT3582 from an XR6 turbo. that would have been a better comparison since the compressor wheels are all of similar design and the only variable would have been twin vs single.

What if he had used newer gtx2863 vs older gt3582 single?

I posted this in the comments of the video but I'm still awaiting a reply

To be fair, he is correct in that he's comparing two common setups. Not many are running around with GTX2863's still.

but it not about comparing "common" setups it was all about "low twins vs single".

his single setup uses a 50mm ex gate which looks to be to atmosphere, plus his 3.5" exhaust which helps with the response mid topend power.

he should have plumbed the gate back in before the cat. to make it a fair fight.

Not siding either way as I'm after a stock appearance myself.

+1 for stock appearance

That video is a good summary of my feeling going from twins to the 6262

He seems to have epic power from -9s though or a slightly happy dyno?

-7 housings with -5 wheels I believe, Pete.

^yeah, that's why I'm super keen to see a pair of GTX2860's in -7 housings. I'm curious how hard they'll go in the .42 compressor covers.

Also worth noting is the stock head work and tomei poncams with only 9.1mm lift!

GTX2863 are not bolt on. He says in the opening lines what the comparison is and goes through all the pros and cons.

Haven't most of the graphs of gtx turbos proven they don't spool quicker but they make more power?

So using an older gt style 3582 would just not make as much top end

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
