Rb20 - Greddy Td06-20g 8cm

[Roy]

Greddy Typer R, comes std with the kit

[cefiro]

Can I just make a point here, firslty, if you want a laggy turbo on an rb20 then you got to enter your corner pretty hard cause you wont be able to spin it up fast enough on a slow entry, unless you pop the clutch. So I recon the bigger the turbo the harder the entry and also you dont have the car on full throttle all the way through the drift, so you only really running about 60-80% on the throttle. I recon your better suited to something a little smaller rather than bigger on the rb20.

[Roy]

LOL...if it sux as a drift setup, i suppose that will just mean you have to get serious and start using it for club sprints instead

[MattSR]

Roy, have you got any audio of your car with the gate open? I need some more porn

[Roy]

You can see when i understeer wide and get off the loud pedal at low speed in 2nd gear, how long it takes to get back on boost...but oh well, serves me right for understeering wide in the first placel

waldo, all due respect but i think you are going about this the wrong way. for a nice quick driftable car something like an HKS 2530 will be perfect for you. 180 to 200 rwkw is plenty for fun in a GTST and will give you great throttle response (well better than the trust kit). Don't get me wrong, the trust kit is great but i don't think it's well suited to your purpose.

[Waldo]

ill just do it all and see how it goes....nobody has a real answer to weather its going to be good or not...so i might aswell do it....if it doesnt work out well then ill just change turboes...

[yogi000]

2530 is great on an rb20.

around easter creek i can hold 3rd thru some of the corners where u can use 2nd instead and it picks up really well, its getting 0.5bar @ 3000rpm and 1 bar at ~3600rpm which i think is don and 1.25bar @ ~4000rpm

roys setup is making a much nicer top end

[Jamezilla]

What lap time are you running around Eastern Creek and on what rubber??? (This is Roy, co9uldnt be bothered logging out and in ) I did notice at Eastern with the TD06 i did struggle on Turn 7

[Waldo]

heres a couple of pics of the eaxhuast housing and the internal gate setup for you roy. its an odd setup if you ask me

[grim32]

Hey Roy, is this the same one you are using, its from nengun for about 2 grand. Also do you no what the specs are? Do you think the turbo is at its limit on your car or do you think it still has some left, thanks.

Just curious what it would compare to in the garret gt range.

Type TD-06S , Compression Housing 20G, Exhaust Housing 8.0cm2

heres some more pics of mine...im not sure wat the trims are on these but its a 20g housing.

[1400r]

try asking James on NS about trying to drift his 4 door 32 wt td06 25g (he bought the kit of the guy in the hpi write up) from what he has said to me its lag city

It all depends on the track your going to be drifiting my 2530 makes my life hard going around Port G as its such a small track.

On a track like Mallala I'd probably be very happy with the 2530

just remember to do lots of limiter clutch dumps works for me

[MattSR]

is james his username? im gunna go search for some threads

[Waldo]

well i drift at queensland raceway and it has to be one of the fastest tracks in aussie... it doesnt have tight corners anywhere really they are really long high speed turns. So it should probably suit this track as it would be better to have a really nice top end power band than low down.

heres some more pics of mine...im not sure wat the trims are on these but its a 20g housing.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

TD=mhi turbo

06=turbine WHEEL

20g=comp WHEEL

L=SUPER BACK comp wheel

s=flat back comp wheel

h=large turbine

exhaust housing you already know the sizing

comp housing is the big long part no. on the front of it

cheeres

td06=mad turbo; so very underated

[Waldo]

cheers for that info mate.....does anybody know wat size the oil fiting is for the oil feed for these jigas..also because the stock turbo has oil + water lines and i only need oil ones...wat do i do with the existing water lines..do i just bung the holes in the block or do i get a hose made up to link both holes? i just want to get all the oil and water lines done soon.

cheers

Waldo, looking at the rear housing on that turbo, i wouldnt even bother putting it on the car...any money spent plumbing that bad boy up would be dead money. Run Straight out and buy an external gate exhaust housing for it...looking at that rear housing m not surprised that the T3 flanged TD06s dont make the power they should.

Of course i could be very, very , very wrong, but i flat out dont like howthe turbine and wastegate is set up, turbulence / back pressure city which means cant run as much ignition, combustion chambers full of already combusted air, and poor flow....

1400r, as others have siad in this post, the 20G and 25G are two very different turbos

And grim32; Type TD-06S , Compression Housing 20G, Exhaust Housing 8.0cm2... Sounds similar, but i think mine is the TD06L2-20G, cant be sure though as it came off a twin GTR kit

[Waldo]

i was sorta thinking that with this type of exhuast housing it shouldnt effect the spool up much...as ill be running an electronic boost controller...and the wastegate will stay completely shut until its on full boost anyways...which it shouldnt affect spool up time but might cause it to struggle a bit when on full boost. i was under the impression that the wastegate stays completely shut until u hit full boost (with the use of an ebc). am i right or completely wrong lol.

[Roy]

I look at where you bolt your dump pipe to, and i see a large cavity, full of square edges. The when the thing finally hits the boost you want to run, the little wastegate flap opens and the air runs straight into a wall, then has to blend with the exhaust gases coming off the turbine which are already free to bounce around in the cavity before the dump pipe.

I hope Trust/Greddy no more then me, and it may work just fine. Are you sure thats a genuine Trust/Greddy housing on the turbo?
