Hey guys, got a bit of an "oddball" setup going on, am doing a remote mount turbo. Engine is a VG30DE 10.5:1 comp, and am looking at a TD06-20G as the turbo. Will be running Water/methanol with no IC, but will only be running 7psi for the first week or two. Would a TD06-20G be too big? maybe choose a smaller exhaust housing then usual?

gday guys, thought id post my results from using one of these turbos

i have a tdo06 20g sl2 8cm rear on my rb20

turbosmart 40mm wastegate

550cc denso injectors

bosch 040 fuel pump

z32 afm

splitfire coilpacks

ebay spec front mount

3inch exhaust

Nisstune

still needs a little tweeking like a new CAS, decent front mount and cam gears are on there way.

Hey mate, I dont think it would be too big. Possibly the smallest id run to be honest.

Yet I dont have any first hand experience with a remote mount, maybe it needs something different.

Wow plots so much different to mine, absolutely nothing happens till 4k then bang, it gains 120kw by 5k..must be fun :D

did you find out if that ring was missing in the gate??

yeah she up and boogies after 4k lol

im looking at jumping on the e85 bandwagon ;)

nuh it wasnt missing all good, is your dyno sheet in this thread mate?

edit; found it, very impressive mate :)

Edited by TJR32GTS-T

+1 more specs on the SR above please, and

JEZ: specs on the motor you recently tuned with the 20g internal gate please.

Its a stock rb25 Running stock manifold. Td06 20g 8cm 21psi on 98 octane pretty aggressive tune.

No vtc yet.

Has since made up a 5 bolt rear housing and boost pressure is safe and stable at 14psi. Should help with flow too.

Retune on 18psi once he gets car rego'd

This is a great turbo to stop getting defected coz it looks like a stock RB25DET turbo with all the japanese on it. Im also loving the fact that you can get about 300kw stock using this babe. Thumps up fellas for finding this masterpiece

8cm will be perfect for you, but if you're only running 7psi, you probably won't get much power and may be laggy.

what is your goal - response or outright power?

nice, i reckon it will be perfect streeter with response and 250-260~ rwkw and can match the similar turbo from hypergear.

i am here. :nyaanyaa:

should be getting the car back tomorrow so fingers crossed for no issues & good results...

Will be pushing it up to 15-17psi and yeah outright power is the goal.

go the 10cm.

the na compression will help spool it up

The below picture isnt a perfect example as the spreadsheet is the combination of my car on two different dynos and two different tuners. The dynos read about the same, if anything the dyno that produced the 8cm result read a little lower then the 10cm dyno. The tuner that did the 10cm tune was not as good a tuner as my current tuner. So that obscures the result.

But even so, I think it paints the correct picture as to what happens when you throw too big an exhaust housing on a car. Unless your car is choking on its exhaust gases, going to a larger A/R housing is a pretty risky way of trying to get more power. Especially with a turo mounted well away from the head. The exhaust gas would not have the same amount of energy after its gone through piping and cat/mufflers etc

If you want more power look to try and get your inlet temps as low as possible, back pressure from exhaust as low as possible, pressure drop in inlet as low as possible etc. Then have a look at your

    • The nissan manual says to change coolant every 2 years. Is this still necessary if you're using coolant like Penrite or nulon which has improved over the years? It says it lasts 500,000km which seems hard to believe lol.
    • According to the Muse website, totally different material. The originals were that horrible solid foam rubber that was used for a lot of rear spoiler/flap things, like on Mitsu Galan GSRs. Heavy, and with enough compressibility/flex that any paint on them would crack fairly quickly. The Muse ones are just ABS, which is obviously similar to GTR lower front lip, etc etc. ABS is a good choice if you have the ability to tool up for it. The only thing better might be TPU-RIM or something equivalent. The TPUs were good. Plenty of flexibility (in twisting, bending, etc) but not really in compression.
    • Update 24/01/2025:    Bought a GReddy/Trust Intercooler (crossflow spec-LS) that was meant for a R33 GTST $871 AUD shipped, and a GReddy Profec boost controller $483 AUD, both brand new from Japan. Being honest, I would've thought the intercooler kit was discontinued but I guess not yet. Decided due to funds + time, I'll stick with a nistune on this stock-ish setup ( stock turbo set to probably 10-12psi ) and have it run cleaner ( suspect the 3" turbo back etc has sh*tted on my economy ) for my trip down south soon for the WSBK. Hopefully I can get it all installed and tuned by then. As for who I am getting it tuned with, I will be going with Toshi, (not hearing back from DVS so scratch that). There is also Birrong Auto but not sure if they do nistune installations and if they even tune it... Otherwise, anyone know where I can get my hands on an aluminium intake/suction pipe for an RB25DET NEO?
    • The german cars I've worked on seem to have that issue(in more than just headlights). Mostly where hot, but also just the insulation hardening and cracking in various places. Not abnormal from what ive seen.
    • According to the Muse website, similar material, but not the same. Meant to help with stopping the paint cracking. In saying that, I had genuine ones on my last grt, and never had that problem.   Could you post pics when you get them? Very much thinking of buying the Muse ones over fibreglass.
