Hi guys,

I was wondering if anyone knows if Garrett make twin scroll turbos? Their website only seems to list the different turbos a/r sizes, flange types and whether they are ball bearing or not, but I can't find anything related to twin scroll / divided housings... any ideas?

Thanks!

lol queues in discopotato...

Garrett only make single scroll turbine housings for the GT2554R - GT3582R range .

In the larger frame BB series ie T4R and GT4088R you can get twin scroll turbine housings .

Your typical Skyline owner won't spend the brass on good manifolds TS turbos and external gates .

The factory solution was twin parallel turbos which achieves much the same thing .

Thanks for that... I was hoping Garrett made some of their smaller turbos in DBB + twin scroll but it looks like they don't - I am after a smaller twin scroll turbo for a custom build.

Oh well, I'll keep on looking :-).

Thanks!

Depends where you want to go . Increasing the power in an already heavy , and front heavy at that Skyline , is going to be expensive to feed as fuel climbs towards the inevitable $2 per liter .

If you want something in the lighter/nippier/more agile - and frugal class I think Evo Lancers ie E6 are a better bet .

Evo's have twin scroll exhaust manifolds and turbos std from I think E4 or 5 up .

Forced performance is cleaning up in the US developing better turbos based on the E9 housings and the soon to be released FP HTA Green promises to be pretty good . It will bolt onto E5-8 with E9 factory plumbing as well .

To easy , A .

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
