Those results follow the usual trends , larger A/R turbine housing uncorks the hot side of the engine pressure balance equation and you often end up with the same power at lower boost pressure .

This is a good example of increasing the gas flow by removing a restriction , it also means lower charge air temps and lower fuel rail pressure so mostly good . The only downside is that the turbine spins up later in the engines rev range because the larger turbine housing passage means low gas velocity through the turbine housings nozzle until the engines revs climb a little higher .

Actually I always wondered what a GT3076R would be like with a 1.06 A/R GT30 turbine housing but its not a combination any ones tried as far as I know .

Throttle vs boost response works really well with larger A/R twin scroll housings but until Garrett gets the lead out and makes twin scroll twin integral gate turbine housings like IHI and a few other manufacturers do don't hold your breath .

Very interested to see how that real GT3071R 0.63 A/R build goes .

Noise , yep nearly always goes up because there is less pulse damping between the exhaust valves and the turbine housings nozzle .

Cheers A .

yep,

I did the same conversion on an Rb26 with the same turbo. I just drove the car for the first time with the 1.06 turbine housing and its heaps louder. Actually, i dunno if i can live with it with the trust 3.5 inch exhaust. I also found that the turbo performs like a light switch; its nothing, nothing, nothing, then wheel spin. I love that banshee wastegate scream though!

yeah its definatly much more agressive thats for sure

Sorry to dig up an old thread, but has anyone else since done this swap?

Really keen on getting some more information on it as im considering doing this at the moment. Id also be interested in seeing how much peak power increased by.

Turbine map for GT3582R/GT3540R .

Yep the 1.06 is quite a jump over the 0.82 , if you can look down the passages from the mount flange side with a torch the difference is very obvious .

my power went from about 350rwkw to 380ishrwkw from the turbo upgrade.

Do you have a graph to compare boost response?

Sounds like it makes the car a lot less linear.

ps. I have a spare 1.06 rear for a GT35 if anyone wants it cheap....

That graph shows a hell of a lot more flow A so cheers.

GT, how did the thing feel? For someone like me who isnt going to use the car for drifting is it a worthwhile update? The 30kws comment is definitley encouraging as im going to use the car for drag racing primarily and that will make a big difference but dont want the thing to be too much of a dog to drive. You dont have any dyno charts do you?

Did you notice any boost control differences, as im having massive issues with my 44tial on the .82?

Brockas, cheers for the offer. Im in NZ and sending a housing may be a tad expensive.

      R32gtr sputtering and stalling

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.

      I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Silly question, as I bet you've checked already, but the motor turns over by hand yes? I suspect Neil has a spare starter, though if not, I believe I have a spare R33 (or two) starter.

      NPboosted manifold fitting purpose

      By Duncan · Posted

      Yeah just run one of those posts to the Link like GTSBoy said. From google it looks like a "mishimoto boost controller" is a manual boost controller. Since you already have the link just buy any MAC valve and plumb it in where the mishimoto is now. Wires to the solenoid should come from the Link's / standard loom boost control wiring (I guess you have an r32, not sure if it is gtst or gtr, if it is GTR where is a 2 pin connector near the engine bay fuse box/injector resistor for that purpose, assuming the standard boost controller is gone)

      No. The ECU's hose is for a connetcion between the plenum (assuming single throttle body, not ITBs) and the ECU's internal MAP sensor. This is the primary load measurement of the ECU - so you need to get this one right. This has NOTHING to do with the boost contol. The wastegate also needs to see a boost signal - but it is actually far better for it NOT TO COME FROM THE PLENUM (again, assuming single TB, and not ITBs). This should come from the turbo's compressor housing (assuming there is a nipple on there, which there might well not be), or on the boost pipe somewhere between the turbo and the TB. On the pipe from the turbo to the intercooler is usually most convenient. The boost controller is then located between that boost source and the wastegate, ACCORDING TO THE CORRECT PLUMBING DRAWING FOR THAT BOOST CONTROLLER. There is no general diagram or instruction that will be correct for every case. Then the other ports on the plenum are for purposes such as Duncan described. If the boost controller has an internal MAP sensor, for a boost display, etc, then it will want to be hooked up there, alongside the ECU and the FPR.
