Link to sales blurb by HKS

thought you were going a single...

[Sinista32]

Engineering/Compliance certificate is an issue. Don't fancy a trip to Sydney (EPA) and the bother of trying to meet the standards is a real PITA.

Fine if you never get pulled over but if you do the choices are it's engineered or returned to stockish.

Selling would be a nightmare also because if it goes interstate it cant be registered without issues. And my final thought would be if I'm not a dyno queen or after serious power for straight line or track racing it would be a real shame to go single on such a great condition GTR.

Stock / stock looking GTR's pull the good dollars. Although your right I was going Single but not any more

They're journal bearing. Waste of time. 

if you could believe the HKS propaganda    And look at those graphs, run some SS's/-9's at the same boost.

How much are these overpriced nuggets? 

[Dose Pipe Sutututu]

This is what they reckon... lol

All in at 3400rpm?

Doesn't look much different to your basic cooking -9s.

Plus it has V-cam by looking at the blurb on the graph.

[Leroy Peterson]

sif you dont have V-cam. every GTR should have v-cam. v-cam is the coolest.

Mine wasn't optioned from the factory or aftermarket

Mega thread bump I know, but a tuning shop in Kentucky managed these results with VCAM step 1 and the GTIII-SS turbos: https://www.facebook.com/Dynosty/videos/528591662283860/

I'm not really interested in the numbers themselves which seem a little overstated IMO but this seems to vaguely corroborate UP Garage's results seen here where peak torque happens at 5500 rpm: https://www.facebook.com/upgarage/photos/a.2754286177933791/2756172981078444

I'm still not sure if 0.54 a/r on the exhaust is the right thing for midrange power but shape of the curve especially with E85 seems pretty decent for a bolt-on turbo.

Even with vcam they’re not all in till around the 4.5k mark, they’re even worse then I imagined they’d be

With Vcam peak power is at 6k, so that will be a change of driving/shifting habits.

Full boost at 4500 and peak power at 6000.   That's horrible, and it's not VCams fault.

We should just start a thread with a list of officially shit turbos, and these can be the first entry.

I'm confused as to why Joshua posted these results - to justify his purchase of these shit turbos, with shit results ?

It's on e85, maybe max out injector or fuel pump

Just imagine if there was no vcam and was on 98 fuel.

full boost at 5k rpm+

They're pretty mediocre but I figured someone would be interested if they ever dug this thread up. Personally all I'm hoping for is to get results on par with -7s, any more than that I'd consider a win. Every time I look at the twin turbo piping it's pretty cringeworthy how many twists and turns and right angle merges occur.
