IMPORT CENTRAL Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 hey guys im currently doing a new turbo setup on my gtr changing from the 685awhp twin td06 setup to either a single to4z or 4088r i would still like to make a tad over 600 at the wheels but need to speak to anyone running a 4088r i have a few people over in perth running the to4z but would like to see if the 4088r is more responsive and makes more power and what rpm the power falls of as we will rev it to 9200. i will list the spec and any info would be great the new setup will be with a 6 boost mani with large dump pipe jun 2.7 280 cams full jun built head currently running twin td06 to 9900rpm will run 9200 on the new setup just need to no if the 4088r like rpm as it seams the t04z might fall off Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/251021-4088r-vs-t04z/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lithium Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 There is a chap on some Skyline forums (might be on this one) called Rockabilly who runs a GT4094R and is running ~700hp on a GT4094R - the GT40xxR turbos on RBs is something I have been trying for ages to get good info on. There are plenty of EVOs out there running >600whp on them though, with impressively good response - the T04Z/T67BB/whatever people call them are "So pre-2005" these days haha. Vid of FullRace showing off one of their GT40R setups. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/251021-4088r-vs-t04z/#findComment-4346943 Share on other sites More sharing options...

discopotato03 Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 (edited) Of the three you mention I'd give the GT4094R a big miss , basically a GT4088R with the GT4294R's compressor wheel and not surprisingly a poor combination with the 78T GT40 turbine . Personally I think the GT4088R is a better unit mainly because it has more current wheel designs which is a bonus . The T04Z's turbine (T04 P trim) probably dates back to the 1960's so a lot of engineering water has passed under the bridge since then . There is a lot of variation in what gets called "T04Z" mainly with the turbine housing . A/R sizes all over the place and single or twin entry turbine housings in big T4 or smaller T3/twin T4 Euro flange sizes . I wouldn't even bother contemplating a T04Z with a single scroll turbine housing unless it was one of the three HKS ones . You should really E mail Geoff Raicer at FullRace Motorsports in the US because he really likes and has had great success from GT4088R's and always says that if the engine/manifolds/turbo are properly set up they are not especially laggy . Aside from just the wheel designs in this turbo both are significantly different trim size wise and that seems to make all the difference . Garrett usually use the 84 trim size with their GT UHP turbines ie GT30/GT35 and the proyptype GT4088R did as well , at some stage they settled on a 78 trim size for the GT4088R and it also is available on the diesel GT37xxR turbos . The compressor wheel design I believe was a first for Garrett and to me looks like typical GT blade form but with 7/14 blades instead of 6/12 and in a 52 trim size rather than the usual 56 trim size . The T04R compressor wheel in the "T04Z" turbo is an older T series design and being 63 trim is dated thinking IMO compared to later petrol engine designs and even diesel engine designs . Recently people have been looking at Holset and BW diesel turbos , often they use big wheels in smaller trims sizes than Garrett usually does with GT BB turbos but the downside at times is their massive housings . Anyway speak to Geoff because he's played with RB26's and GT4088R's so he should be able to give you an idea of what to expect . Cheers A .

Isn't the 94mm compressor used in the GT4094R a lesser trim to the GT4294R, possibly making it a bit less of a "bad combination"? Something I find interesting is that the compressor maps I have seen for the GT4088R imply that it falls over quite a bit when you start going over PR ~2.5 or so yet there are cars making really good power on 30-40psi with them. Am I missing something? I've trawelled through and for dyno plots of Supras (our closest equivalent that DO have plots for them) running GT40R and so far haven't seen any which stand over equivalent setups running GT3582Rs, whether its because no one has pushed them to their capabilities or if they just can't flow sufficiently to suit a big motor. Maybe someone has and needs to share their results still Edited January 4, 2009 by Lithium Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/251021-4088r-vs-t04z/#findComment-4347701 Share on other sites More sharing options...
discopotato03 Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Yes that is true , the trim sizes are 52 and 56 . Geoff had a post in Supraforums I think and he was doing comparisons of power outputs and turbine housing size on GT4088R's , I believe his findings were that using larger turbine housings was the way to male the power without high (40 psi) boost pressure . I'm curious to know what sort of response is being asked for from this stretched RB27 . Cheers A .

2BNVS Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 (edited) ive never had a 4088 so i cant compare but my garrett t04z 1.00 twin scroll 20psi from 3500 its great all the way to redline to make 450rwkw.. i dont see the big problem with it. this is on a 26/30 272 degree cams Edited January 5, 2009 by 2BNVS Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/251021-4088r-vs-t04z/#findComment-4348106 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 When i was chatting to creatd ms, they showed me a single setup using the 4088 on an rb26 which was built for a good street car so its not very laggy at all and makes a nice 400kw atw. Was considering this setup but for police hassle reasons im sticking to twins. If you watch that HKS r34 gtr on youtube that runs a 2.8litre stroker, it seems to need alot of revs to get going....but top end made tsuchya scream.

T04GTR Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 a t04z will run out of puff. check my comparo i found between a 4088 and a s374 borg warner....... im changing to one (s372r) a gt4294 or a combo gt4298r? or 4598r would be easy to get that power. but will be laggy.

rockabilly Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 (edited) i run a 4094r, rb26/30 jun stage one cams thats 264-in/272-ex with 9.7mm lift.spool rods and cp flat top pistons. acl bearings ,n1 oil/water pumps, car made 710bhp @ the fly with wastegate leak, put a second spring on and that sorted it, not dynoed it yet but will be doing in feb. car runs a .96 rear and makes 1bar by 3200rpm, makes full boost by 4000,wether it be 1.9 bar, or we have been as high as 2.7bar now. i think this turbo is awesome, and to compare it, i have have a rb26 with hks 25/30,s and an rb30 with a gt35r 1.06 rear, the 4094 spools faster for its size than the 35r and comes in only about 300rpm later. its an awesome turbo..you need to drive a 26/30 with one b4 its condenmed its awesome. bernie uk p.s 710 @ the fly was @ 6800rpm.

Drift Motorsport Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Did the dyno guy back off the throttle between 4500rpm and 5500pm? Huge dip in power!
