Only if it's blocked.... Ive made 290kw with a blitz return flow.... I'd eliminate the boost tee first. My mods are similar to yours.

what size is the rear housing on the turbo? also that graph isn't that helpful...do they have one that shows rpm as well as afr?

Big ups for Tao especially for the Highflow and SS2 offerings. I've been running a 21U highflow now for almost 5 years.

The latest one has the ATR compressor housing with the latest wastegate and exhaust wheel design.

On a standard engine, standard exhaust manifold, standard intake manifold, greddy cooler & havoc hard intake pipe with a Z32 & 850cc injectors it makes over 300kw on pump E85 with 18PSI peak bleeding to 16PSI at the top.

But it's not the peak power figure that I love, it's the response and delivery of torque.

or just a basic MAC valve and let your ECU control it (if it has the capabilities), there's no way a bleed valve can surpass an EBC which runs in close loop oscillating to control the boost.

I don't think the advantages of a EBC are drastic enough to correct a ~50rwkw deficit.

My TurboTech made 270rwkw no worries at 19psi and held it perfectly on an OP6 highflow.

I do agree, but if he is looking to replace the boost tee as a possible source of power loss then I think he should get an EBC whilst he is at it. There are many advantages/features in running one.

Hey tao how much is your Hypergear ls20.5g? Is it best run with a external gate and good high mount manifold? Or is there a bolt on version you make with stock rb25 6 bolt rearr.? Id probably prefer a vband rear. Make the price with the lines and whatever else ill need? Will it make 330-350kw at the wheels on e86/wmi and 270 ish kw on plain 98? Also how good does the adaptronic go compared to the likes of Vi-Pec/Link/Haltech ect in plug/play versions ofc. What can you do the Adaptronic for $$$'s wise with the sensors ill need and everything to just plug it in and set it up to go haha

    • If you are fine with China turbos, Maxpeedingrods makes a bolt on turbo. Ive had mine for two summers now and it seems to be holding up ok. 
    • Howdy all Im in a little predicament and wondering what everyone’s thoughts are? I’ve had my long block rebuilt and am in the market for a turbo due to my old one having metal shavings from crank bearings (cause of rebuild) go throughout the turbos oil lines and there wheel has a little play. I’m not really aiming for any power, just trying to keep it as oem as possible, but I can’t find a turbo that’s built for the stock ecu or find something that would be a standard replacement. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions 
    • How's everyone going? Just a shout-out introducing myself. I'm James, I live on the north side of Brisbane. I bought an R33 that had been left to rot in someone's front yard for 14 years. Apparently, it has immobiliser/fuel issues. Long story short, it's suffering from a seized engine, plus whatever else turns up once it runs. The car is pretty good considering it sat for so long. It pretty much died after being imported. It has a bunch of Jap parts and a full Top Secret body kit. It's painted Fiat Turchese Festival, or aqua blue if you're not French. Another project to throw money at!
    • So the clockspring is responsible for the indicators cancelling on their own? I thought that was the function of that white thing in the center (any idea what it's called?)
    • Can you log IAT? Whilst WTA coolers have their place, doing any sort of sustained run is not one of them There are fixes that slow down the heat soak, like ice boxes, which don't last that long, and interchillers, which are fairly expensive, up grades to the WTA cooling radiator, which may require a bigger pump, and upgrades to the reservoir size,  and upgrades to the cooling fans, but, it all still heat soaks, and takes ages to come down in hot weather  For a turbo, that isn't locked into WTA like my PD blower is, can you not possibly swap to a nice air to air intercooler????, it would be better for sustained runs then, and have alot less things that could go wrong in my opinion
