I can't remember, and i am not searching but don't R34 gtr turbos have smaller exhaust housings? .64 vs .48?

theres enough info on the net with back to back BB versus journal and i've backed to backed it aswell,(BB T28 versus journal) transient response is "slighlty" better, but only really noticed on light throttle openings(1/4 throttle, bringing up a few pounds of boost ), so maybe for a motorkhana car its worth it, for the rest of us it won't make a difference

cheers

they both use the .48 rear housing.

even without seeing jez's results yet, i rekon the td06sl2-20g is already a winner for a rb25 without too much lag.

if i can manage to low mount this and weld the gate straight onto the rear housing (38mm will def fit, not sure about 44mm??) then it will be something i will do.

will wait for ARTZ to see how he goes with low mounting his unit.

I'd be going the 40mm comp gate anyway 1. because it should sound better 2. because its cheaper!

trent seems to use them often with no issues.

yeah i want to cause its a very compact unit..

..but tial comes with 7 different springs TS comes with 7psi only which means I need to buy more springs :(

ill see how much i can score some for.. :)

pipe i have is 46 Outside 40 Inside.. so i measured it up..and although it looks like ti will fit from the outside but when I measured the inside of the turbo housing, because of the thickness of the walls, I think a 40mm hole is going to be the limit as the inside of the housing just wont accomodate a 44mm hole. so even if i have a 44mm gate im only going to have a 40mm pipe feeding it.

from everything i have read, it is meant to be the best place for it, run it off at an angle less than 90 degree and it should have great boost control..

TS site says to keep the gate at least 100mm away from the housing though, away from the heat as much as possible Guess i will take my chances with it under a heatshield....

**Although this setup may work on paper i really have doubts as to its sustainability if it was running hot for extended periods..**

Simon,

what BOV are you running? (If any that is)

cheers

    • Hey everyone, just wanted to let you know about an app I use to track the modifications, repairs, servicing etc I do to my R33 GTR. You might like to use it as well. I'm biased because my son just wrote and released it! But I think you might find it useful to... https://trackmymods.com  
    • Hey everyone, been on here for a while, but never introduced myself before. 1st import was a R32 GTS Type M, then R33 GTS, now R33 GTR - each one sold to help pay for the next one. Over the years my son has seen me modify and do changes to my imports and was one of the reasons for him to build an app for car enthusiasts like us. (He can only afford a 2007 Honda at the moment, but he'll get there!) Anyway, bit of a proud Dad moment as he's released an app that I use and you all might like to as well. https://trackmymods.com  
    • It will sound tragic and you wished you didn't have 1x exhaust per turbo. There's a reason why most S55 owners change to a single mid pipe.
    • Echo the comments about the well preserved condition it's in. It has the aero bumper too for extra points. Nice car, and please keep it like that! 🙂
    • 1. There are no real performance benefits. It sounds different, and as the pipes are not as large diameter you can claw back some undercar clearance or run lower (if that's your thing). 2. Twin pipes, offering exactly the same cross sectional area as a single pipe** will have higher pressure drop - so will not flow as well. That's because there is more surface area of wall per cross sectional pipe area, hence more frictional losses. ** But of course, it is almost impossible to get 2 pipes that are exactly the same XS area as a given typical single pipe. eg, 2x2" is not the same as 1x 3", although it is close. If the 2x pipes add up to less XS area than the single - it will just be flat out worse. If the 2x pipes add up to a bit more than the single, then it might come out as a wash. If the 2x pipes are substantially more XS area than the single, then it will probably flow a little better. 3. No. Why would there be? What have cats got to do with boost creep?*** ***But for f**ks' sake, please run a cat. 4. If you want.
