Hi all,

I've got a 25 with top mount manifold running a t3/t4 which is supposed to be a 450hp turbo.

Now my questions are as follows...

If a turbo is rated at 450hp at 20psi what power in kw will it make at the wheels ?

Which is the best turbo for a 25 as an upgrade out of gt30,gt35,gt3540 or gt3040.

I dont want exessive lag so i was going for a .82 exhaust housing so i basically want to know which will go about making 300rwkw with the most bottom end to midrange on the least boost.(ideally 18psi)

Thanks for any help.

450bhp / 1.34 = 335kw

less ~60 kw for losses = 275 rwkw.

An example, we have an R34GTT with a GCG ball bearing hi flow and it makes 265 rwkw.

Hope that helps :uh-huh:

What about this turbo pushing 7psi on some crazy 6ltr stroker ? stupid I know but the car will make more then 450HP !!

Its silly to assume the turbo on any given boost is going to produce ex amount of power on your car. The turbo being rated at 450HP means it can flow 450HP but before this turbo goes on your car you might already be making more then 450HP...

As for 270rwkw at 20psi with that turbo you might not even get that !

Get your max fuel/ignition to boost levels you/your tuner want. See what power you make then that’s a clearer indication of what turbo you should go to.

IE: 14psi might be more efficient then 20psi on your car's setup. No one can answer that but the tuner on the day.

Ah no, the turbo only flows enough air for 450 bhp (about 45 lbs per minute). So if you put it on a 600 bhp (without turbo) engine, it will loose power. ;)

That wasnt what I said I said the 600Bhp motor would still make more then 450HP thats what I said. I know the restriction in its exhaust (the little turbo) will cause it to lose power.

Read more carefully.

Still no!. The turbo flows 45 lbs of air max, so the engine makes ~ 450 bhp, not 500 bhp or 550 bhp. :cooldance

Would anyone else like to answer my q?

WHAT ****KING TURBO SHOULD I BUY TO MAKE 300 RWKW WITH THE MOST BOTTOM END TO MIDRANGE AND ON THE LEAST BOOST?

Are they all that similar with the .82 back?

Cheers :rolleyes:  :rant:

What other mods are you doing for the 300 rwkw? The turbo is best chosen with all the facts known. :cooldance

Honest to god if you believe that Im going to prove it wrong to you in person, just give me 3 weeks till this 6ltr stroker is finished and ill show you it peel over 450HP with a 450HP turbo on it. You can watch it get dynoed.

:headspin: :headspin:

If it flows more than 45 lbs of air per minute, then it isn't a 450 bhp turbo. :)

Well, well, whadyaknow, here was me thinking this guy is crazy. You are going to have some strange tuning issues to overcome though. :)

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
