What's different about the new SS2? Will it be keeping the same response? Mine is a late 2012 unit and I'm wondering whether it's time to send it to you for a refresh.

Also I'm running mine external gated (45mm hypergate) with a 25/30 neo setup. Made 265kw on 10psi and 292kw on 13.5psi.

Going for retune on Tuesday and upped gate spring to 14psi and will be running more boost now. Will post back with results ;)

^ oneday il be calling on you for guidance on how to build a 2530 neo, if wer following trend it should make more power with no loss in response.. i think thats what hes done across his range of turbos lately

engineering a new ss2 at moment. should easily take over 300rwkws on pump. will up result shortly. ss1pu makes similar power then 21u but makes alot more torque. there is also a new turbine wheel on thd ss1pu this year, should up hp by 15kws with no lose in response.

Still very much enjoying my 2013 SS2. If I ever decide to upgrade I'd definitely look into this low mount (or the ATR45SAT if it fits :) ), together with an external gate off the stock manifold.

I reckon the NEO might need some forgies at that point though...

Stao is it possible to modify a JJR bellmouth to work without an IWG or is it best to replace the dump/front when going ext gate?

Neo on forgies oh that would be alot of fun.

When i swapped over to external gate i had my bolton and acuator asembly sent back to stao and he sent the vband housing and then you just need to put a vband on your dump and get the gate housing made on the mani.. definitely worth doing!

Nice!! So the exact same turbo but with ext gate? Would you have a dyno sheet before and after by any chance?

I have an ATR45SAT sitting at home now waiting to go in. I'll probably install it in the next week or so then it gets tuned around this time next month so I can tell you how it goes. Supposed to fit on the low mount stock manifold also.

Watch this space and I'll update you when It's done

SS1PU will work fine it doesn't work with a small exhaust housing like the 21U units. So it will be fine.

The new SS2 uses a different exhaust side, on dyno, compare to the previous model, its been able to take more boost with more timing. I'll still still be aiming at 20psi by 3800RPM in 4th. For predicted end result it will be some where close to 340rwkws internally gated on pump 98 fuel and close to 400rwkws on E85 externally gated.

With the capacity of most common 3 inches diameter exhausts, I will be making some small bits and accessories to come around it.

Do you have a picture of the exhaust housing?

hory shet... makes me want to take out my SS2 and throw it in the bin and get the new version haha..

I'm pumping 24 psi into mine and the exhaust housing glows nice and red to only makeep 340kW. And by that time, my intake air temp is over 60 degrees lol

ss1pu is for 1450 same as ss2. for a r34 because of the cams and higher engine comp, down low torque doesnt change alot between the two. I will be running an ss2 instead.

    • I remembered wrong, but was close though 1Kz setting because those Jaycar SSRs don't go any faster, 1x pump per SSR with flyback diodes & heatsinks. In saying that, the heatsinks are overkill. Just on an alloy plate is more than sufficient. You'll find without a flyback diode, your SSRs will heat up big time and also die prematurely.  I've been running the two same SSRs since the last motor, no issues, car does 2 hour straight drives in summer once in a while and gets punished on the track. Nothing melts, no hot messes, etc.    
    • Hmm. You're probably best off working out what the lobe centreline or even the LSA is for the stock cams, with VCT OFF. That's bound to be out there somewhere. Then, work on the assumption that the Kelford centreline is probably the same, and wouldn't be more than a couple of degrees away, if it is different at all. I'm very surprised that you needed to adjust the exhaust cam by 5° to get it on spec. That screams there's another problem somewhere. Anything from the belt being 1 tooth off (how many degrees is one tooth worth?) to simple user/measurement error on the degree wheel. I say this because Kelford, like most quality cam manufacturers these days, does a pretty good job of actually making the cams to spec, not relying on patching it up afterwards like we had to do back in the 80s.
    • Besides packing it, you can also fill your pump through the oil filter inlet port. After cranking for what felt like an eternity without pressure, i fed a tube in through there and filled it with oil. Cranked for a few seconds after that and had pressure. 
    • That's exactly what I told myself. I'm happy it came out. 
    • My bet is there's a fuse somewhere you blew that feeds power to the ECU. Or you've bumped something out behind the dash board.
