Twin Scroll Internal Gate Turbo Options


ARTZ
 Share

Recommended Posts

yeah for the 1jz....figure if i can merge the stock manifolds into a twin scrolll should yield some decent results in a tidy package...

heaps of external gate options but trying to keep it simple for packaging sake...something i can mount low under a stock looking heat shield would be nice...

I did think of the EVO turbo actually, Think it could work ok?

Not by joining the two factory manifolds...ive seen nothing but rubbish results doing it that way.

Won't be atrue twin scroll anyway.

I'd either have a log manifold made up, or if you want it standard looking. Either find a hks t3g setup (good luck) or have stao rebuild the ct12a's

..it will be true twin scroll if merged properly....3 cylinders into each scroll

have seen twin ct12 results and they aren't flash...though stock they do make quite a bit of power...but they are pricey.. 1000 each for hiflows...so theres 2 k that would buy me a 7670 that could make 400kws..whether or not this would be possible with those stock manifolds I don't know..but if 400kws can be pushed through an RB log I dont see why its not plausible.

True but 3 cylinders will be firing through the worlds worst turbo manifolds in existence. ...they are laughable...if you dont believe me pull them off and have a look.

One result that stands out is a 1j manual soarer with a gt30..peak boost 20psi at 5500rpm or later and made 230rwkws and just would not take anymore than a few degrees timing...there was no doubt other issues..but still...I will happily enjoy my etm manifold when it arrives

Having said all that, I have seen a full weight JZZ30 auto (standard converter) run mid 11's on the factory ct12'a and a good tune

in a cressy that is 300kgs lighter, It would be a weapon

woah!!! didnt realize a JZZ30 was that heavy...

theres one cressida running 11s on stock turbs...10s with nos....hes selling most of his setup at the moment actually....if only i had some play cash

I will be sticking with the stockies for a while anyway ,probably just try tune them for e85.....twin scroll thing was just an idea running through my head...

get a good dump pipe

makes a huge difference

haha, yeah thats what he was selling...I'll get Scotty to knock me one up later..

that and i have some 750cc injectors and Eflex sensor...assuming my old tin tank isn't full of rust...

was about the only mods i have planned for the near future...

yeah that idea was considered, i also considered twin gates off the j-pipe as well into a twin scroll tdo6h ...but with both its too messy and too much work It would be easier and more beneficial to go with a proper manifold...

a simple J pipe into twin scroll IG turbo is the only option I am willing to entertain, that way if its a flop I could easy swap to better manifold and keep the turbo

I would have loved a BW turbo & full race manifold too.. but when both items cost as much as your car x2.. it's a stupid investment lol

Buy a more expensive car. Problem solved :D

    • This morning I carefully reinstalled the manifold and started looking at a couple of things I need to do.  Heat wrap arrived sometime today so I popped into the shed with the missus dishwashing gloves and started wrapping the first half of the dump and the screamer/plumb back.  Once I do the second half I'll be able to final fit the turbo and exhaust up.  Also pulled the harness out today and started terminating it at the ECU end. A connector is done, just need to run the remaining wires that arent in the harness - 12v, gnd and couple I/O
    • A31 is pretty much the same thing without HiAIDS I mean CAS, no improvement lol. Not to late to send it.
    • Thanks for all the replies! I also wanted to ask if wheels that were fitted on Ford Falcons would fit the 350GTs as well? In the area I'm at there aren't that many options for secondhand wheels and new ones here are way out of my budget. From what I've seen, most of the wheels that are available that were fitted on Ford Falcons have an offset of +33 to +36, with a centre bore of 70.5mm whereas the stock 350GT's ones are 66mm, can't seem to find any hubcentric rings that fit that difference though. 
    • 215/45/18 tyres are probably a little on the low side compared to the factory tyre, it should be closer to a 245/45/19, which will get you about an extra 11mm of height, and should make you speedo read a bit closer to reality. 245/45/19s will be a bit too far the other way and you risk a speeding ticket as your speedo might read slower than your actual speed.  245/40/19s would be correct if you are going to 19in rims, they will give you a similar total diameter to the 245/45/18 tyres.  
    • That's something I forgot to put in my list. The aggressive anti-squat in R32 is a f**king menace. I still need to decide if I'm going to drag the subframe out of my car and weld in the GKTech corrector kit. The main reason to dither is the need to switch to spherical joints in the lower arm to account for the twist induced in the rear pivot caused by lowering the front pivot. And yes...we do put better subframes in R32s, and I wish I'd gotten an S14 one instead of an A31 when I did the "take off and nuke it from orbit" HICAS delete all those years ago.
