Rear housing sizes, will spool up quicker but run out of puff up top.

Not having a shot. But if you dont KNOW for certain then please phrase a post so its a question.

16G, 18G, 20G are NOT rear housing sizes. They are the compressor the turbo runs. The rear housing sizes are designated in Mistu talk at 6cm, 8cm , 10cm, 12cm 16cm etc etc.

The take away is that the smaller the compressor wheel the less inertia so you are a good chance that it will spin quicker given the two turbos have the same turbine and housings. But then there is the weight, number of blades that all play a part.

Now I THINK ( :) ) the 16G would be noticable to an 18G and 20G in spool. People seem to refer to a 16G and a BIG 16G, with the Big 16G being what Trust call the 18G. (? if someone can confirm this great :) ) There is not a lot of dimensional differences between the 18G and 20G and are basically just a different trim.

I think the fact that the 18G is normally teamed with the smaller TD05H turbine and 8cm housing is the reason why it would generally be seen as the faster spooling turbo, albeit making less power as the compromise.

Wheel Sizes (Inducer/Exducer)

16G - 46.5mm / 57mm

18G - 50.5mm / 68mm

20G - 52.6mm / 68mm

So in an overly simplistic view the 16G would physically be a lot smaller and spin easier. The 18G and 20G are basically just a trim difference

16G

After reading both threads the Kandos SEEM to produce more brutal neck snapping acceleration factor on the street, less issues getting there and seem to love boost and have lot more potential in them, maybe this also has to do with the setups being external gated.. AND theyre half the price of HG turbos (kinda adds up to same with ext gate, custom dump, plumbing etc), but then later down the track u canalways swap a newer better kando turbo cos its cheap!

f**k knows how your comparing them, you must have some skills, theres not even a decent 98 octane dyno sheet in this thread, its all E85 results....

whats the difference in the 16G 18G and 20G with these kando's. would a 16G spool faster than a 20

Those are the compressor wheel sizes. The 16g is normally also available in a big and small trim too, small trim is uncommon from kando so dont worry about it.

The big 16g shares the same outer diameter as the 18g and the 20g (68mm), you can consider them the same wheel in different trims (although they are not quite..).

The 16g will be the best spooling item and is what is used on evo's 3 - 9 (normally capable of up to 240ish all wheel kw). This is a TD05H 16g6 (big 16g)

The 18g and 20g go up in power capability from there, the truth is being a similar wheel they are probably close to as capable as eachother yet working at different boost levels. The 20g will come on a little later and a little harder but will make the highest power on the least boost.

For a fast spool application the TD05H 18g with a healthy rear housing (10cm) would be good on a 6 cylinder and should make an easy-ish 240kw

There are youtube vids of TD06 18g on 1JZ motors available, do some searching. The results are surprising, rather quick and come on very early and smooth. I would rate this to 260kw.

He's a wishful thinker, thats how.

Edit...

Wheel Sizes (Inducer/Exducer : lb/min)

16G - 46.5mm / 57mm : 34 ~ 340hp (The big 16G off the EVO III is rated as 39lb/min)

18G - 50.5mm / 68mm : 42 ~ 420hp

20G - 52.6mm / 68mm : 44 ~ 440hp

So in an overly simplistic view the 16G would physically be a lot smaller and spin easier. The 18G and 20G are basically just a trim difference

16G

Here is a pic of the following wheels side by side: VF40, EVO 16G (Big 16G), 18G, and then the 20G!

Ur pretty clever arent you, the dynos the only way to compare them right, smart-ass? If you were just a bit more smart then you would see in my first sentence that i mentioned 'after reading both threads..'- hence how I compared them, whether right or wrong, thats for anyone to decide and debate as thats what forums are about..seeing as dynos dont really define what it FEELS like to drive.

wait for ARTZ too, his setup is the benchmark in my eyes and i cant wait to see his results.

stock manifold, gate off the housing, good size gate, stock plenum, basic support package. :thumbsup:

Hes taking his sweet time isn't he lol...

If someone wants to lend me a Kando td06sl2-20g and will pay for a tune ill be happy to take my T67 off and give it a try in the name of science!

    • I think the concept is highlighting the various scenarios where thicker oil helps, and thicker oil potentially doesn't help and only generates heat and costs power, in turn for safety which isn't actually any safer (unless you're going real hot). If anything this does highlight why throwing Castrol 10w-60 for your track days is always a solid, safe bet. 
    • Jason should have shown a real viscosity vs temp chart. All the grades have very little viscosity difference at full operating temperature.
    • Oops... I meant to include the connector  view... BR/W - power from fuse L/W - motor negative to fan control amp (and off to HVAC pin19) OR/B - PWM signal (from HVAC pin20) B --  ground  
    • Yep, if you are applying filler it sounds like there is something wrong with the body lol. Safe to assume there is going to be a lot of sanding going on if your still applying fillers.  Picture a perfect bare metal panel, smooth as glass. You lay down your primer, it's perfect. (why are you going to sand it?) You lay down the colour and clear, it's perfect. No sanding at all took place and you've got a perfectly finished panel.  You won't be chasing your tail, sounds like you were prepping to start laying filler. If your happy with the body after the sanding, there is some bare metal exposed and some areas with primer, no issues at all, start laying the filler. You are safe to lay filler on bare metal or primer (of course check your technical data sheet as usual for what your filler is happy to adhere to).  This isn't a 100% correct statement. There is primer that is happy to adhere to smooth bare metal. There are fillers that are happy to adhere to smooth bare metal. Just make sure you're using the right materials for the job.  Typically if you are using filler, you would go primer, colour and clear. I've never seen any instances before where someone has laid colour over body filler (maybe this happens, but I haven't seen it before). So your plan sounds pretty normal to me. 
    • I don't think there's any way someone is push starting this car.. I honestly can barely move it, and moving it and steering it is just flat out not possible. I'm sure it is, but needs a bigger man than me. I have a refurbished starter now. The starter man was quite clear and consise showing me how nothing inside a starter really should contribute to slow cranking, and turned out that for the most part... my starter was entirely fine. Still, some of the wear items were replaced and luckily it didn't show any signs of getting too hot, being unfit for use, etc. Which is 'good'. I also noticed the starter definitely sounded different, which is a bit odd considering nothing should have really changed there.... Removed and refit, and we'll pretend one of the manifold bolts didn't fully tighten up and is only "pretty" tight. GM only wants 18ft/lb anyway. I also found a way to properly get my analog wideband reading very slightly leaner than the serial wideband. There's Greg related reasons for this. The serial output is the absolute source of truth, but it is a total asshole to actually stay connected and needs a laptop. The analog input does not, and works with standalone datalogging. Previously the analog input read slightly richer, but if I am aiming at 12.7 I do not want one of the widebands to be saying 12.7 when the source of truth is 13.0. Now the source of truth will be 12.65 and the Analog Wideband will read 12.7. So when I tune to 12.7 it'll be ever so slightly safer. While messing with all of this and idling extensively I can confirm my car seems to restart better while hot now. I did add an old Skyline battery cable between the head and the body though, though now I really realise I should have chosen the frame. Maybe that's a future job. The internet would have you believe that this is caused by bad grounds. In finding out where my grounds actually were I found out the engine bay battery post actually goes to the engine, as well as a seperate one (from the post) to the body of the car. So now there's a third one making the Grounding Triangle which is now a thing. I also from extensive idling have this graph. Temperature (°C) Voltage (V) 85 1.59 80 1.74 75 1.94 70 2.1 65 2.33 60 2.56 55 2.78 50 2.98 45 3.23 40 3.51 35 3.75 30 4.00   Plotted it looks like this. Which is actually... pretty linear? I have not actually put the formula into HPTuners. I will have to re-engage brain and/or re-engage the people who wanted more data to magically do it for me. Tune should be good for the 30th!
