  1. Thats cool but the supra is 3 litres and this ones taken out even more.... We need to see some RB26 results to be able to fully understand if this turbos gonna be a lag monster or not ??
  2. Kam, for additional strength, can you add bracing from the underneath of the turbo flange to the header flange as per the pic I emailed you??
  3. That looks great but has anyone put one of these on a 26?? I see loads of high boost RB30 examples but I wanna see a 26 ..... Not running on E85.... Just pump gas . Can anyone post up such results? A good turbo on a 26 with std cams and pump fuel should be able to make 500whp well under 2 bar......spooling at less than 3500 and making full boost by 4500........ Anyone???
  4. 6266.... What's the specs on that? It's bigger than the 6262 I presume??
  5. Artz, I can't see how you fabricate your own exhaust housing? If you cut a hole in it and then welded a pipe into it to take a wastegate you would then need the housing re-machining again to correct any distortion from the welding?????
  6. KiwiRS4T, I cant get my head around your picture above.....it looks like the wastegate is taken right of the back of the exhaust housing on the turbo....so its not part of the manifold design at all? How is Kam gonna manufacture that?? I might be missunderstanding and if I am I appologise. What we need to see is the collector organised a bit better and the wastegate taken off at a better angle. Kam......rather than posting someone elses work up here, ill email you a few "Examples" so you can get an idea for whats needed matey. Cheers Andy
  7. Come on guys, let's help Kam by posting up pics showing how the wastegate tubing should be optimally placed then we can start ordering these manifolds??
  8. Hanaldo, good point mate . Can someone post up pics of the preferred wastegate layout for Kam too see??
  9. Kam, great pics. What's the score with battery's manifold though? Don't u check each manifolds mating faces (head and turbo ) are flat and true before shipping? I'm up for buying one but not for then having to machine the turbo and head flanges flat!!
  10. Fair point....like I said....lets see what Kam comes back with?? Im not being funny but until it comes from the "horses Mouth" in not gonna believe it
  11. Guys, Lets see what Kam replies with first eh? I think to be honest a lot of the more "Established" manifold makers take the piss with their pricing. I can remember when a "Certain" popular manifold maker used to sell his manifolds for like $600.........im not sure 6 years inflation equates to a 100% price increase???? I see no reason why a $360 manifold shouldnt have tidy collector welds........we arent talking chinese shite here after all!!
  12. Battery, Im not doubting this is an ebay manifold but I think Kam should post a pic of his collectors up as i certainly would not be putting that mess anywhere near my engine. Kam?????????
  13. made even....lol (time for bed me thinks!!)
  14. Guys, Estimating Flywheel power is comon here in the UK and yes, I agree its a load of BS. Power at the wheels is where its at. Im surprised the PT 6262 mande nearly 500BHP ATW..........................
  15. Thanks Scott.....so PJ's R34 Vid is showing BHP at the wheels then?
  16. Sycorp, Great setup. Out of interest what manifold and exact specirfication of precision 6266 are you going to replace this twin setup with? Do you think the 6266 will offer the same spool-up/responsiveness of your twin setup? Cheers, Andy
  17. So back to my initial question... Is that bhp measurement showing power at the wheels or corrected at the flywheel?
  18. Chassis dynos normally read either corrected power at the flywheel or the power at the wheels (same as hub power isn't it??)??
  19. PJ........post back bud?? were your R34 GTR results at the hubs or crank???
  20. I'm buying this manifold.... Check out the description mate.....http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/320834139081?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649
  21. Forgot to mention....as E85 is as rare as rocking horse shit i always run 99 Octane pump gas!!
  22. PJ....that R34 with the stock bottom end and stock cams....what was the power at the hubs? Im presuming the dyno run is showing corrected power at the fly? Im in the UK and I want to run a single on my Forged RB26 in my R32 GTR (Stock head and cams). Im going with a T3/T4 topmount manifold and was looking at the 6262.....I want 500BHP at the hubs at no more than 25PSI.......is this gonna be do-able with the 6262? Im looking for spool compariable to uprated twins but with the ability to crack 500BHp at the wheels. What do you reccomend guys??? Exact turbo specs please? Oh.......why all the reference to 4 Cylinder Nissan engines and even worse Toyota engines??? Surely you guys must be all running 6 cylinder RB's in the main???? Just find it a little strange as in the UK where im from there isnt a lot of skyline interest in 4 cylinder mills....its all RB26/26/30 etc....... Cheers Andy
  23. Can someone confirm what sized wastegate an "off the Shelf" RB26 6boost manifold comes designed for? Am I worrying the 38mm is too small for no reason???? What do you think guys??
  24. Pics of the oil catch tank showing location it is fitted under the bonnet and price please??
