Hks 2535 And Newer Turbo's Question

Hello

I have a chance to buy a working HKS 2535, I will have to have a elbow made for it and buy the oil and waterlines.

I was saving up money before this to get a Hypergear High flow, or a turbo from Sonic Performance for my car.

At this point, I want about 300-350hp for the car. I want to see what its like to drive with that before I try to get higher horse power.

I have a stock rb 20 det engine with a rb25 turbo, fmic, full 3" exaust from the turbo back, exhaust after the sports cat is 4 or 5 in., pod filter, and a mines tune. I have stock injectors.

I have some GTR injectors now and have a chance to get the resistor pack for it or I might just buy the correct injectors for the car and not worry about wiring up the gtr injectors. Going at least 550cc if I dont use the gtr injectors.

I know I will need a tune when I change turbos and add the injectors.

Is the HKS still a good choice for the rb20? Or are the newer Hypergear 25turbo hi flows and some of the Sonic performance turbos better?

I already asked about turbos before but I never considered a HKS 2535 or 2530. I spent hours last night reading up on old posts about the HKS turbos and the rb 20. Question is not if they are good turbos or not, question is if they are still worth putting on a car today with all of the newer turbos available today.

Been there done that, dinosaur turbo I used back in 2007.

Billet people, billet people!

Ok billet, I read about those.

The only billet turbos I can find for the rb20 are from Sonic Performance, The GTX turbos by Garrett.

The Hypergear Hi Flows seems to be non billet.

It doesn't need billet material for better power making. It is more to do with the shape, radious and profile of the actual blades. The New SAT cast wheels worked well in terms of high flowin. The Billet wheels are best working with externally gated setups.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.

      Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve.

      I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.

      No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.

      God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
