a lot of precision hate, have been running over 700hp for 5 years, last year or so over 800 🤞

 

 

Some of it is warranted, unlike the turbos they sell.

Don't get me wrong, they are a great little wu-tang whistler WHEN they work and don't fail/leak, but as has been stated quiet a few times, they are about as fragile as a coke addicted supermodel girlfriend.

 

I went back to a Garrett simply for the after sales service, parts availability and warranty in the event of a failure, and they are as tough as it gets in the nagasaki noisy boi world.

I have a g35-1050 on an rb26, started to wind boost into it and the head lifted. 

The response so far has been pretty similar to my old gt35 on rb26. 

1 bar by 4200/300, so its not amazing by any means. 

"If" it gets the extra power though over the gt35 it will be a good thing. 

Taking the chance of head off to add vcam, so hoping this combo will be really responsive.  

 

I have been wondering about going t4 split now they are out but will mean going from the .86 I have not to the 1.06 as noted above.  Not to mention the cost of manifold, housing, etc.

I'm a firm believer that going twin scroll will make all the difference, even with a larger rear turbine housing.

Some testing done by Hypergear between OS and TS.

Proof right there!

Great article here too:

https://dsportmag.com/the-tech/twin-scroll-vs-single-scroll-turbo-test-the-great-divide/

 

Most car enthusiasts these days are too fixated on the final peak number they're producing, but often neglect to look at the low down, mid range, etc. Sure you're making 746kW (call it 1000hp so you sound cool quoting big numbers), but it's not going to be a fun car to drive, especially when you have like a 2k RPM range. It's kind of like a Honda, you need to rev the tits out of it to get anywhere.

Both that graph and article suggest a spool of ~250rpm earlier. 

Not to be sneezed at if you want a street car, specially with no top end loss. 

 

Wondering if it will end up equal on spool going from .86 to 1.06 but have the extra top end. 

Any one have rear housing back to backs ?

I don't have the data or facts, however if you're going to use a properly divided manifold and a divided rear turbine housing you might end up with a tiny bit better spool!

I'll try dig up a comparison done on an EVO between open scroll and a T4 1.06 I came across years ago when I was researching the real world difference with open vs twins scroll.

I'm probably going to stick to the 6466 then with a twin scroll .83. IF it does disintegrate as a lot of you are saying it probably will then ill go with a G35 of some kind. Id rather have good response and if I ever want more power down the line then ill move up.

I feel offended 😂 

35psi ~4300rpm +/-

1000hp ~ 5100rpm-7800 +/-

So in summary, it seems that without divided housings and a serious lack of real world data on RB's the G Series is a bit of a flop.

I love this quote about the Precisoins "they are about as fragile as a coke addicted supermodel girlfriend."

I suppose it's back to EFR's then with low quality casting and high price tags.

Not a great comparison, however this is on Alex from Birrong Automotive's personal weekender

G40-900, twin scroll, on a (as he calls it) basic 3.2L 2JZ and drop in cams made 574kW at the rear hubs with boost dropping down to about 2.1bar towards the rev limiter.

That’s a pretty impressive, not sure how it would go on a smaller engine though

atp do a g35 with a 1.06 t4 twin scroll rear on it which I think would work well

through recent research given this is my current situation though for me track with sequential so lag doesnt matter such such seems general summary give or take for various different engine combos and mods for rb26 to rb28

Garrett trades at 20%ish discount to peak power figures given on 30 - 32 psi and need big rear housing to reduce back pressure issues  g35 900 = 700 - 720 rwhp can be pokeyish and g35 1050 = 750 - 800 rwhp prob pretty laggy both can fall over at the top a bit

Precision at 10%ish discount to power given at 30 - 32psi = high 700's to low 800's apparently pretty much hit the mark on the dot peak power around 35 - 36% psi - need biggish rear housing lag not too bad - wont fall over

so from 3 given here you either go a punchy 700hp with g35 900 with 1.01 or 1.21 rear or 800 hp with 6466 Precision with 1.01

What garret did you go, and is it comparable to the 6466 for power and response? Any back to back dyno?

Have currently got a GTW3884r 67mm. With the .84 rear it was very similar to the precision, but now has a 1.0 rear on it. with the smaller rear, i dont think it would have made the same power as the 6466, however it will with the 1.0 rear and the trade off is around 500rpm. Made 500awkw at 28psi with that rear, and i will throw another 10 pound at it in the coming months. No back to back sorry though. I just use a mates Dyno and we get on the piss and do a few cars at a time, so the sheets are not high on our list, beer and fun times are. Also a big believer of the moroso calculator.

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
