Yeah, these otomoto turbos are known for being very laggy for the power they produce, wouldnt recommend a VG30 turbo, just an rb25 one and get it highflowed if you wan t anymore, keep the smaller exhaust housing to move the powerband down in the rev range, still make up to about 250rwkw with a highflow

SLIDE RB25 highflow for RB20 would be the best option, price wise as well.

People have made awesome power, and there not THAT laggy..

Check out "Rb20 Turbo Upgrade, All Dyno Results" thread if your thinking about upgrading your turbo, some proven results in there.

Thanks,

i know someone who is putting 1 of these (pretty sure it was this one and not the 480) onto his rb20. he has it all on but is yet to get it tuned. will let you know how it goes. should be better than the t70 that was on there. that didn't boost till 6000rpm.

For the money i would go a highflow as well.

There is a bit of modification that you have to do to make the KKR fit.

At the end of the day its like everything else and you get what you pay for.

The KKR kits are cheap and there are people making good power with them but they do rely on there warranty to sell the product from what i can gather. For less stress i go a 20/25 highflow from Slide and do it right the first time :thumbsup:

Laggy, the same as an rb25 turbo, but bigger exhaust housing and different compressor wheel(i believe)more tuned to low boost, so when you put it on an rb20 its laggy and inefficient, heaqps better to go with an rb25 turbo, and get it highflowed if needed

Ive got a 430 on my rb20.

Had to modify the water lines, oil lines bolted up, also had to grind some of the comp cover (it touched the exhaust manifold)

i'm running gtr injectors, microtech lt12s, walbro pump, cooler, straight through exhaust, stock internal motor, no cam gears.

made 210rwkw with 19psi

i've got full boost just at 4000rpm in second, slightly earlier in higher gears.

Ive been running this power for 9 months and not had a problem. The car see's drift track too, so its thrashed fair good :laugh:

my 2c worth

Due to personal health issue's i am no longer making the highflows sorry guys.

Hopefully soon when things are sorted out i can go back to them but for now just trying to get better :(

Sorry to hear mate.

Your health is more important and hopefully you recover soon and get well..

Good luck, and take care.

Hope to see those high flows in the future :)

Thanks,

Abu

hey mate,

i just put a moc kkr430 on my r32 rb20det and they have WAY to much lag, if you gonna bomb shit outta your motor then ok, but for minor upgrades i would say go a T04E, thats what i'm getting now for mine.

but it is fun when you finally hit 4000rpm and full boost...lol

    • Hi all   what short shifter do you use on your skykine r34?   my synchronous does have a problem and i was getting huge delay and grinding sound between 2nd and 3rd, did put shockproof red heavy stuff and it is great now/ no issues   would in your view short shifter screw this up?   people seems to suggest/ use cube short shifter and there is standard and premium. Seen review of premium as much better and less play. Thoughts?
    • Yeah, there's a bit of a density and friability difference between pebbles and any of those other things. Silicone will definitely float in oil and so will be mobile enough to move around. Although, again, if it is upstream of the filter it really shouldn't go any further. I would only ever worry about silicone when it is in places downstream of the filter. Upstream of the pickup is a whole 'nother matter. We've all seen what that does. I have seen the most abominable crap settled out in industrial gearboxes, trunnion lube systems and the like, without any sign that any of it has touched anything in the machine. Just chilling in the bottom, waiting for the inevitable operator error that causes the whole machine to need to be dismantled for repairs.
    • I have seen enough fire and brimstone from TSBs about roloc disks causing spun bearings that foreign object contamination is top of mind for me. For sufficiently large particles you might be right but usually it’s a distribution of debris and some of the larger particles can also break down and shed bits. If local shops report RTV contamination in a turbo is enough to wreck them I’m taking zero chances if I can help it.
