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

It doesn't matter if it's new or old tech, my old T4 divided T04Z set up shat all over low mounts and people think they were designed the same age as a dinosaur!

put your graph up then. tell me what twins you shat on. Edited by mr skidz

I don't care if twins or singles or semantics of the debate as there are loads of variables.... But one very good point is I would love to see the singles performance with the gate plumbed back so it's at least attempting to be a street able road car.

My experience, albeit at ~300rwkws and 80mm exhaust is it makes a huge difference to power, response and ignition the tune can take when switching external gate to plumb back...as an observation the quality of the front pipes seem to have a decent impact on twins too.

That said...if there was a reasonable process to getting a single thru roadworthy i would stick with a single every time....just for convenience and simplicity when banging around on track

The graph and others have been posted on this forum for the last 10 or so years. Dash 5s are the easiest to compare the 7s and 9s are slightly more responsive but made 200HP less

Fairly sure Matt over here runs a RB30 with EFR8374 internal gate and it has no issues with power or response. Mind you E85 changes the game a little Edited by SimonR32

put your T04Z graph up the one that apparently shits on low mounts.

only interested in your claims atm.

so tell me bout this setup of yours..

looks laggy as shit, looks like a hill climb event. nothing until 120 130kph

so let's be honest they shat on nothing that's not your car or turbo & it was probably stroked.

let's leave this thread for its intended purpose which was GTX related

210hp and 15psi at 4000rpm on BP98 is laggy? Please... no RB26 makes good power before 4000rpm and people like to post graphs that start at 4000rpm to make them look fatter

That's also 4th gear, if I short changed from 3rd to 4th at 6200rpm it would still be making 420rwhp which is more than the max power -7/-9 would make on the same fuel.

Not my car? Really? Stroked? Really? Here is my sale thread for when I sold it, also you might notice the "Genuine R33 GTR Crank"

FFS this is a thread about GTX twins. Not some dinosaur T04Z.

Wow, steep curve. Not a single f**king torque curve to be seen. Probably don't even know what "area under the curve" means. It means a usable powerband. Not some dyno queen looking graph.

GTFO, I'm sick of reading this shit. I want to know about GTX twins. I like my engine bay to look stock. And it still does.



To the others - When $$$ permits, I'm considering GTX2860s in stock compressor covers and 0.63 rears. I want something more responsive than my -5s. I'm getting 23psi at 4800rpm in 3rd and I want it to be at least 600rpm earlier. I would prefer 20psi by 4,000rpm. Would bring the torque up earlier and hold it with the GTX compressors better efficiency at higher boost levels.

(I use the car for the type of track that has corners..)

The second graph has a nice fat torque curve for you to see. The car makes the same power down low (if not more than low mounts), it just looks "dyno queen" because it makes so much more top end.

You want some GTX twin results, here is a GTX2863 result on a 2.8L

10518305_815854931771310_549531332373346

and here is it getting matched down low and then losing up top to a stock bottom end 2.6L

As for the track that has corners? You mean where single turbo set ups dominate? I'd love to see some videos of you at the track :)

I'm shit at the track.

But looking at that - it goes from nothing to 700nm within 1000rpm, and then it falls away 2,500rpm later. It has a 2,500rpm usable powerband? How is that useful? And having power go from nothing to everything within 1000rpm is definitely useless.

How about a powerband that is 4,000rpm to 5,000rpm wide? More logical one would think....

You also seem like one of those people that thinks that if you have a high power number, you're an awesome driver? Nope.

That dyno is the shittest I have ever seen for track use.

Single vs twin... who gives a f**k, as long as there is a usable powerband.

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
