I’m look to run a set of the new garret g25-550s on my rb26/30. Aiming for a vicious 30dett
Will have to find the cam card but from memory. the head has a set of kelford cams 10.8mm lift and 280 degree duration  

the block is forged and balanced 

engine is going into a street GTR

Yes I could go single but just want something different 

What you all think will the 3l have enough puff 

aiming for 700+

Assuming HP at the wheels, then you might struggle to make it. I don't have any direct experience on this sort of setup, but just looking at the compressor map, and thinking of a single one of these on a 1.5L engine needing a lot of boost to make 475-500 engine HP, then there's a bit of a conflict between the likely 2+ bar of boost required to make that sort of power and the need for the compressor to be flowing 45-50 lbs/min of air. You'll be right over on the RHS of the map, over near the choke region, pulling middling efficiency and running close to max shaft speed.

But, if I had to guess, I'd say it would be a ripper and do pretty much what you're asking for.

Hi there thanks for the above. 
what attracted me to the 550’s is the new technology but to be honest I wouldn’t have a clue possibly there’s better suited turbs  

dyno Will be hub type in NZ lol

my friend is running /5’s on a rb26 on pump gas making 430kw (hub dyno) - so with my situation 3l block and slightly bigger turbs on E85 we should be able to hit 500kw mark with out to much effort  

 I recon the correct comb is out there there’s no info around as everyone goes single 

So do you think I’ll need 30lb plus boost to hit target? is it possible to change rear housing. 
 

(ripper) yea bro I’m excited

Look at the motive GR Yaris build. I think 700 at wheels will be easy. If you can make 400 at wheels on 98 and 500 at wheels on e85 from a 1.6L 3cyl. I was thinking about a similar setup with my build. But G series were very new back then and there was almost no data on them. There is an R34 time attack gtr that runs twin G25s. There is a very good YouTube video about it. Good luck. Would love to see how you get on

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
