Have you thought about cams - before you go looking at a turbo or while you choose a turbo system?

Yes, just something I haven't done, im happy with it all how it is, my excellent fuel economy, peak power at over 7000, nice idle etc etc

And how about the off boost effort of these mentioned turbo's in regards to say being in 5th at 3k doing 110-120 and flooring it? the t04z makes about 4-5 pound at 3k and 100kw, but 2000 revs later its well over 300kw.. what do these all make by 3k power and boost wise?

Well as an example if i squeeze the throttle on the Freeway at 110km/h it cracks gate :laugh: Takes a few more psi that 5 to do that as the boost controller was set at 20 :yes:

Poncams :yes:

Agreed. I think you will be suprised at what a set of mild cams + cam gears will do...

I think you should consider it, because a better cam profile CAN actually give you more lowdown torque.

Can get you more wimminz too i believe!

how does trents hub dyno compare to roller dyno figures around the vic area stao?

not in vic area, but when car was 300kw it made 4kw less going from a dyno dynamics to a dynapack setup on sae, also looked lazy in the mid range on the dynapack

Im still unsure, What could you do to my current turbo for much better response Stao?

And furthermore, I really like the efr 8374, but is it a bit on the big side for my levels?

Just not sure what will come on faster and not be restricting ?? The hta seems promising too

Sure I can. it will cost you $650 including the turbine housing, and if you don't need it back in a hurry I can do some dyno runs with it for comparison for your final decision.

Im quite interested, what will you do to it? New wheels and tighter rear?

Looking at dyno runs my 22psi is on at just over 5k, how much lower can you make this would you say?

Id love it to come on hard at 4 on the dot if your able to do this?

Also a bit more off boost would be mint.

Keep in mind I have a 1.05 rear so that could go .83 with no ill effects?

This just seems smarter if it will work, saves me 1500 bucks too

The EFR8374 isnt that big? Its not really bigger then the HTA3582. Similar powerlevels, but far better transient response.

6262? Didnt mention it because im bored man. They love these things on evos for a reason. They are weapon

6262 is quite big. They love them, but they are laggy compaired to the HTA3582 and the EFR8374.

Sounds like you've got specs in a bit of a knot :P

PT6262, EFR8374 and HTA3586 are probably closest to each other in power potential. HTA3582 is a slight step down in potential power from those 3... I'd look at it like this

Power potential (give or take)

1=) PT6262/EFR8374/HTA3586

2) HTA3582

Response (give or take)

1=) HTA3582/EFR8374

2=) PT6262/HTA3586

Again, general thumbsucks extrapolating from results and comments from people who I've spoken to who have driven the setups - I'd not take it as gospel so much as a general idea of where they roughly stand. I actually suspect the HTA3586 would be slightly more responsive than the 6262 but given my lack of direct experience and knowing the following the 6262 has I'll leave it there.

The EFR8374 is a beast for the response it can provide for the power it can make. The HTA3582 would be ultra responsive, potentially a little more so but again - my lack of direct experience with the EFR means i'll leave that there too and say its just the impression I have from extrapolation.

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
