Just to clarify - and sorry if this is kind of OT, when you say "1000hp" I'm assuming you mean at the fly wheel?   A GTX4294R sits in a weird place between being arguably quite a bit too small for 1000hp @ wheels on a Dyno Dynamics, and there being much smaller/more responsive turbos that would go past that power at the crank as well.
I'm assuming that the actual aim is to run to the limit of the GTX4294R?

100% correct.

I see and hear all sorts of figures. From 650hp all out to 1100hp. I am sure it will be stupid fast no matter what.

Considering the "relatively low" RPM limit here which is 8000RPM, would it need a 270/280/290 degree shaft? A GTX 4294 is no GTX55 or something outrageous.

Considering it's a street car, I'd err on the side of "less is more" here if idle quality and all the rest of the things that make a nice streeter is important.

Exactly..put some 260s somethings in it..and enjoy the f**kin thing...

I have some Kelford split duration 274's that were a bit too big for my set up but perfect for yours if you are interested?

were they the 182-S cams (274/10.8mm)?

Im interested in what you mean by too big, as in the powerband was a bit too late for the turbo you were running? i cant remember if you've got a 6262 or 6466?

JHH and kelford recommended them to me running a 2.6L with an 8374 on E85.

Yes 182-S

Power band shifter too far right for me, I really want/need down low grunt for the kind of track and sprint work I do, it's a 6262.

8374 is similar sized to my 6262 from most accounts so I'd personally be going smaller duration (I've now got 260's but haven't tuned it yet to see if there is a big improvment) 

If you do decide to go the 182-S let me know because you will be able to save a few hundred buying from me :)

Will keep that in mind, thanks Simon

currently running 260/9.15 poncams so will see how they go before doing anything drastic.

You're in luck as I've actually done a direct back to back with Type-B poncams and 182S

Same response but 690 vs 750 hp at high boost... 182S made same power and response with 0.4bar less boost

Wouldn't have an overlay of that at all.

The humble Type B poocam that everyone loves once again fails to perform. ?

Don't take this as gospel as everything isn't totally apples with apples as there were some differences in the head (intake squish removed on the head that had the GREX and 182S cams) but should give you a rough idea.

I've now got a custom grind 260 that should be as good as the GREX cams or even a bit better *fingers crossed*

Update, the custom grinds ended up working well (although the GREX were still mighty in hindsight)

Nice - cheers for sharing, I'm guessing the newest are the 182Rs? Considering the power they are making they delivery very very well everywhere!

Edit: They really are custom... there is nothing to that spec on the website, what specs are they?

Yes, 182R are newest (I think they were actually labelled 182X on the box)... They are custom 260 10.3mm ones from Kelford

What's the duration at 50 thou?

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
