Ok, I did the proper thing and listened to him and those numbers still don't make any sense.

They took a car whose starting point is ~245 tq 230 HP and with an OTS tune is ~280 tq 240 HP on a dynapak. Added a front mount and a g25-660, lost *boost threshold* and torque while adding 40 HP.

My understanding is if the turbine a/r is too small you would get sooner boost response with it choking at the top end.

With thought I still don't understand what happening here. The numbers don't make sense to me especially combined with their comments.

 

BIG edit guys, sorry I should have put more thought into the original post.

Argggg  I could flip the table  !!  They changed the intercooler at the same time as the rear housing. So mudding the results. 

 

 

Ffs watching it now - pretty sure this runs pump gas? Skyrocketing intake temps suggests that intercooler setup was way out of it's depth, so changing that alone would have justified a separate test... Drives you nuts when this kind of thing is done by someone trying to share data and doing it as an authority.  If it makes significantly more and they conclude that it was because of the housing then a table flip is justified.

Hmm, not on the GCG website and Ebay is showing they are out of stock. I wonder when they'll actually be available. 

Price seems to be about the same as an 8374

On the eBay links shared by Lith it mentions 'Delivery: Estimated by 20 September' so guessing they will become available around that time, or a day or 2 earlier perhaps.

Maybe?

Looks like the G30s are coming, now....

better, it won't shit out turbine wheels when you overspeed it by 1 rpm.

Even though the more data etc I've seen it turns out there is a heap of misinfo on this (I'd been sucked in, too), it seems very much this isn't like that at all.  The overspeed data is all to do with the compressor, nothing to do with the turbine - if people have spat turbines then they have REALLY overdone it, probably due to some other issue.  Some cases I've seen have even turned out to be to do with oil starvation f**king the core and everything else being punished for it.

I love the idea of the new G-series range but the fact that there are hopes that they will compete with the OG EFR range, and now there is a new series of EFRs which have really stepped it up there are some G-series which could possibly prove to be too little - too late.    Look forward to seeing how they perform though as there are some really interesting units in the range, if they aren't a lot laggier than their wheel sizes would have you expect then they could mix things up a fair bit.

There seems to be limited information so far but it looks like the exhaust inlet/outlet location between g25 and g30 look to be identical, making at least the rear section of the turbo able to be swapped without modification to the exhaust. This should put the core in the same location too.

Very interested to see how the G30 based turbos compare to the GT30 based turbos in terms of response. Im expecting response somewhere between GT30 and GT35 in comparable housing sizes...time will tell

    • There are black hose clamps as well if you care. Plazmaman for example sells some: https://plazmaman.com/product/black-hose-clamps-premium-quality-stainless-breeze/
    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
