Personally, standing next to an Evo 8 listening to try and find idle with a Motec M800 was enough to put me off. While it went up and down like a yo-yo my GTR was purring at 800rpm... with a Vipec V88

I have 250kW on a standard clutch (I assume) and it seems to be ok, have had that power for about 10 months, no launches.

What about "Hewland", I don't think have anything specifically for a 4WD but who is to say they can not design/manufacture something to suit? http://www.hewland.com/

Yes it is very good, with great tech support too. I would know, have one on my GTR.

Yeah I would not block it just return it to the reservior, so the ATESSA ecu can do what ever it wants however the transfer case sees no oil hence does not engage 4WD. Not sure if it is that simple.

For an R33/R34 why don't you put in a 3 position solenoid valve in the pressure line that goes to the transfer case and flick a switch to divert all the oil back to the reservior... hence no pre-load? Or is it a mechanical pre-load some how?

Ditto, would not doubt be very interesting to see.

Yes, that is what I am trying to get at. I know you made mention of two examples but neither of them were originally a twin set up from factory like an RB26. Lith, if you can quantify that increase in efficiency to 1/2 second per lap of what ever, which would be very important to some, then great. If not, then it looks like the extra expense/effort may not be worth it. I guess this is more of a TS vs Twins not TS vs SS. Sorry, O.T.

All things being equal, for example: Considering a standard stroke RB26 with mild cams and head work is the extra time and money involved in a properly set up twin scroll, single set up (TS manifold, twin gates, TS turbo housing) worth it in terms of performance over a well set up twin turbo system (assume ported manifold, high flowing dumps/exhaust)...? Is the extra effort to make a proper TS set up, just to achieve what twins can already do in terms of performance?

JAGR33 I have told you before I think you have one of the best looking R33 GTR's going around!

Shit thanks for that, I had a bit of a brain no work moment. Yes, plastic cover ghey indeed! But black LMGT4's are seriously the ducks nuts!

"im late" a forum member has them I think, have a look at the RB26 dyno sticky

Anyone want to share how they got a single nut hub with LMGT4's... sorry way O.T. Anyway, great results, I have 250awkw at 12psi with a cat back and Vipec V88. Mike

Who's car is that, it looks like the hubs have been converted/modded to take a single nut.

The sequence of events in popping a wheelie then cracking his head... oh s**t! I reckon I would have stroke from laughing too hard!

Forget the PFC, get a Vipec Plug-in!

That looks like a pretty sweet set up, equivalent to a TO4Z and you are at full noise at just over 4500rpm on a 2200cc engine. Looks pretty good, as I said I am not sure why more people do not go down this route? Even a set of twins with billet wheels and fancy bearings (silicon nitride), able to flow the same as GT-RS's mounted on the standard cast manifolds would be cool as, I-rection. Mike

Has anyone used Billet turbos? http://www.billetturbochargers.com/ It does not seem that a lot of people have used them, I am assuming you could get a turbo built to specification with twin scroll housing, billet wheels look awesome too. Mike

Doesn't the Mspeed R34 GTR use a pair of these? Interesting if they have any issues with high boost.
