Very impressive. How far away from a dragway? Interested to see the results!

The surge tank makes for a very tidy installation compared to others with multiple pumps. Any idea of the fuel capacity of the tank?

Two 38mm wastegates flow more than a 50mm and less than a 60mm - what is the reasoning for having two rather than one with a single turbo?

And what size and type of bov(s)?

Only about 20 min from the drag strip mate, should hopefully get down there before the end of the year, hopefully make a 10sec pass :D

Capacity of the surge tank it 5L from memory

Like Paul said, running the twin gates cause I wanted to keep it a true twin scroll set up

BOVs are just the standard ones but vented to atmosphere

Nice result joey. This gives me hope the 88/75 with full race mani on the 30 will be worth the wait.

Interesting to see how this goes.

More specific details of the setup?

How did you guys get the boost to come in so much earlier on the orange line?

Looks like by turning up the boost from 20 to 25psi

and I quote:

"The only difference in the two lines in the graph is that there was more boost added to the mid range for when i wanna bump up the power for the drag strip"

I think, and this is my explanation until I actually ask the tuner, because the boost was higher in the second line through the mid range.. The boost controller held the gates shut tighter not allowing any leakage.

there was no changes besides the extra boost through the mid range

BOVs are just the standard ones but vented to atmosphere

Correct me if I'm wrong, but assuming the 32GT-R BOVs are the same as a 33GT-R they're gonna be sitting slightly open when in vacuum and as a result be sucking in (a very small amount) of unfiltered air.

Not sure how concerned you are about that, but it's the reason I stopped using my stock 33GT-R BOV and switched to a proper atmo.

Haven't even really thought about it mate, to be honest I'm not overly concerned, I don't think there is anything to be too concerned about :/

I would rather keep the standard BOVs

Haha vids this weekend :)

That's pretty much the limit of that turbo, we put more boost into it but it just want making any more power.

So we backed the boost off up top and beefed up the mid range..

Yavuz wants to put a precision on it lol

I just need to install a second 044 pump in mine and run the lines and mine will be ready for a tune with the 6262, if you hold off until then might give you an idea if you want to swap and if you do go the same or bigger

Ah excellent, are you still running a 2.6? what work have you got done to your head?

once the Tune was done we ended up taking the BW off and bolting in a 6466, didnt quite line up at the dump pipe though, other wise i dare say id be running around with Pauls turbo right now haha

Yavuz reckons response would be the same if not better and it wouldnt choke so much up top

Well after seeing the power it made on pump on low boost (around 375rwkw) i would have thought it would have made more power...

but by the time we played with the cam gears and got boost coming on nice and early we lost that little bit up top

at the end of the day the front fan is only 60mm and for it to make that power with that kind of response, i couldnt have asked for much more really :)

Little surprised it didn't make more than that, though still very stout power. Keen to see video :-)

    • So you're now accepting offers of 10% more than the cost of the turbo kit fitted?
    • No......not yet Minister for War and Finances has stated that the Commodore has to go first Not that I am going to modify the NC any more than what it is already modified now.....
    • Thanks again, really helpful chap from alpha omega wanted to speak to me, little concerned if this is meant to he aero alloy/ airospace quality and car sitting on drive has caused this.  Airplane are subject to much more changing temp and conditions than road salts! My caliper, many other components much older have surface rust but never eating part of the metal   Had I not seen it , could have been a disaster! specifically on rear part of bracket coming off like biscuit will update on what they say, helpful people so far
    • January or Feb is it booked in for turbo fitment?
    • The MX5 has had some annoying rattles in both front doors over bumps So I installed fancy pants door bushings, which stopped all of the rattles with the windows up, but........with the windows down there was still rattles, so after some googling,  and a chat with MX5 Mania, I got some new door to glass weather seals, all the rattles, windows up, or down, are gone now Shout out to MX5 Mania, the weather seals were on sale, and when I head to Dural to pick the up they even fitted them for me for free I did see a "really" nice Blue NA sitting out front   and this Black NC PRHT that looked like it has sat in the sun for its whole life and never had a wash, the clear coat was non-existent, an it looked horrible, really horrible, but, it had a nice turbo kit with over 200kw, the thing went like a cut snake, bagging the rears through the gears and dosing like a champ 😍 But, as I've always stated, I am keeping my NC na, I'm happy with the current power the car makes In other news: MX5 Mania do a drive in drive out turbo kit, the only minor additional part recommended for boosting my car, as it sits now, is a oil cooler, and that bonnet vents are definitely required for track use Aftermarket version look a bit to "racecar" spec I wonder how Focus RS bonnet vents would look?????
