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.

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

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

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

    • 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.
