Biggest Turbo Using Hks Low Mount

[iruvyouskyrine]

Dion and Shane at Fabtech Global (based in Newcastle, NSW) made the manifold. Hypertune HypEx347 low mount to fit large frame EFR with 2x 40mm Turbosmart compgates. I only have pictures of it in early stages of being made, will try and find some of it completed.

It costs an absolute arm and a leg but the quality is absolutely amazing.

Looked at doing it with my 8374 seemed impractical. That was in a R32, looks like above is a R31? and it has a massively larger amount of room. 
Due to constraints of strut tower we couldn't get the turbo anywhere near low or back enough to make it work, at least without ditching AC

 

what are you doing for compressor inlet and exit? looks like its close to the AC exit connection for the inlet and the strut tower for the compressor outlet

[iruvyouskyrine]

Above is RB20 in S15. Compressor exit isnt an issue, inlet isn't either. Turbo isn't close to the AC lines but the 2x screamer pipes are. I have retained a full AC system (and ABS) easily. Yes it's tight but nothing is too tight.

fyi R34 AC compressor is half the size of the R32 unit

Above is the GTX3582 and below is the 7670. The 8374 is going to be bigger.

The 3582 fit barely well enough on a damn stock RB25 manifold that it was too close for comfort to pretty much everything (hence going high mount, after!)

Without knowing what car it is it all comes down to how much room you have and how much bigger it is than a R32/33/34 because its complete guesses either way.

At least on a 34, a stock manifold which is about as compact as it gets was struggling with a 3582.

Get the G Series, if ONLY for its compact size.

Thanks al it for the pictures. Is that an 8374 or 7670? They both share the same frame, but the 8374 has the larger compressor. 

[iruvyouskyrine]

All share the same frame yes, it is actually a 9174 in that pic.

Wow! 9174 on m RB20, is that a mock up engine or a crazy built engine? Great info, thanks again

I've had the HKS TA34 kit which the manifold and gate was part of the assembly. It was a very tight fit. and anything bigger then the .60 comp housing with a 3 inches inducer would hit the engine mount. So you are limited to what ever fits a 3 inches inducer housing could contain, which it would still fit an GTX3582 Gen 2, ATR45SS or something in similar size that makes the 500rwkws range on E85 fuel.

As I said before it currently has a 6758 on the RB20 and will be running that. But the manifold will bolt straight on to an RB25/26 head and still fit with an 8374/9180 for when I go 30 bottom end.

Did you try shaping or cutting back the mount at all Stao?  I had to do that for mine, just took [from memory] around 10 to 15mm off the leading corner.  

[hypergear]

No, I gave up. went for a high mount setup.
