Awesome - sounds good, so it has met your expectations without even leaning on it then? Hope the power delivery/response is good too :) I had figured it could be good for 450kw+ @ hubs on the right setup, but Dyno Dynamics are a bit of a mystery to me - never had any direct exposure to them so really I wasn't sure what to expect on one of those, though I had expected 370kw should be pretty doable.

Wow so it's not going to be driven at all until race day? No pressure :mellow: Hope it all goes well!

Back to the FP3794HTA - apparently Forced Performance have a prototype "FPxx94HTA" which uses the same compressor wheel as the FP3794HTA but has different housings and a different turbine wheel, the initial indications are that it is expected to spool quicker than the current PT6766 and FP3794HTA - but make more power than either.

The car that the testing this thread is about has had one of these units attached to it and will be getting it tuned soon - and no doubt they won't be holding back. if it If it does turn out to be a better all around performer than the best of the 6766 and 3794 combined then it is a hell of a thing :)

It is Boostin' Performance's AWD Eagle Talon - it runs a high compression 4G63 with lots of headwork etc etc. It has run into the low 8s at >170mph (ie, quicker and faster than plenty AWD cars with GT42s/GT45s etc have run) with both the PT6766 and the FP 3794HTA, so it is a good base for taking such a turbo to it's limit :)

More on this GT3794R HTA prototype, it is now released as the Super94HTA and apparently spools better than and makes more power than both the PT6766 and the GT3794R HTA... it has been tested on a Mitsi AWD drag car which has run the previous turbos and on a slippery track this weekend it ran 8.4 @ 177mph - huge MPH for a car running a T3 based turbo.

So anyone certifiable who was looking for something in the 6766/3794 size range - they are now available to buy:

First 7s car I am aware of running a single T3 turbo, using a .85a/r FP Super 99HTZ:

And an AWD DSM ran a 1000ft test run this weekend and lifted to hit 8.2 at 153mph also using an HTA - they only had an 8.5 certified cage and had suspected they MIGHT go too fast, hence lifting at 1000ft.... but were kicked out due to still going way too quick. Seems like there may be a couple of 7s AWDs and a number of low 8s ones running these turbos in the near future :)

Agreed, just pointing out it is still a large turbo - but it is SERIOUS business... especially when no one has pushed a 99HTZ to it's limits, yet.

A Supra owner in the US has upgraded from their old Borg Warner S467 T4 turbo to a T3 flanged FP Super99HTZ and picked up 15% more power with a huge increase in spool - they run a Powerglide and usually use a transbrake however they are testing for an event this weekend where the class they will be in doesn't allow transbrakes, so they did testing using a foot brake starting at low boost to see how much they could hold back with the foot brake and have already laid down a 8.97 @ 151mph... I suspect when they get to a meet they can use the transbrake and wind up the boost a few eyebrows will be raised - not that running 8s on a T3 based turbo with a Supra isn't pretty unreal as it is!

Not with the new turbo yet, today it was it's first runs - the turbo seems to have maxed out at about 36psi (with 280deg cams) but I don't know what boost it was running for the 8 - definitely not 36psi.

Here's a dyno vid (unfortunately they only uploaded to FB): https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=194348620749465&set=vb.173984302785897&type=2&theater'>https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=194348620749465&set=vb.173984302785897&type=2&theater

Dyno numbers will be a bit messed up due to the loose Powerglide - but a Supra running 8s at >150mph is going to be making north of 900hp to start with, it isn't running NOS and it did it off the foot brake with more boost in it.... so safe to say that it's already a pretty stout result :)

    • 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.
