I just reading about the new BMW going twin turbo and it says that they are using two different turbos, one for low end response and the other for top end, sounds like a good idea to me and was wondering if anyone on here has tried it, as a lot of threads cover turbo results and they are either good for low or top end end performance and this seems a good way to beat the lag beast.

OOpps 330bhp not 166kw (cant seem to edit this out of topic)

Well the closest you will get to a factory car in AU with this setup would be to go and have a look at how the supra's do it. Its probably effective if the car came like that from the factory, but the expense to do it as an aftermarket project would be a bit over the top for the results achieved I would think. This is where people settle for what best suits their driving habits.

Biggest thing I find when you get away from using factory ECU's and such, you're throwing away millions of dollars worth of R&D to lose your economy idle ups and such. Plus then you have blokes that have to work on a non standard car and troubleshoot blindly.

you got it wrong there col. GTR's aren't sequential. Supra's are as well as Legacy B4/GTB's and Cosmo's. Soarers arent. i think RX7's are. and i dont know about GTO or 300ZX but i doubt the V6's work like that.

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
