Awesome - sounds good, so it has met your expectations without even leaning on it then? Hope the power delivery/response is good too :) I had figured it could be good for 450kw+ @ hubs on the right setup, but Dyno Dynamics are a bit of a mystery to me - never had any direct exposure to them so really I wasn't sure what to expect on one of those, though I had expected 370kw should be pretty doable.

Wow so it's not going to be driven at all until race day? No pressure :mellow: Hope it all goes well!

Back to the FP3794HTA - apparently Forced Performance have a prototype "FPxx94HTA" which uses the same compressor wheel as the FP3794HTA but has different housings and a different turbine wheel, the initial indications are that it is expected to spool quicker than the current PT6766 and FP3794HTA - but make more power than either.

The car that the testing this thread is about has had one of these units attached to it and will be getting it tuned soon - and no doubt they won't be holding back. if it If it does turn out to be a better all around performer than the best of the 6766 and 3794 combined then it is a hell of a thing :)

It is Boostin' Performance's AWD Eagle Talon - it runs a high compression 4G63 with lots of headwork etc etc. It has run into the low 8s at >170mph (ie, quicker and faster than plenty AWD cars with GT42s/GT45s etc have run) with both the PT6766 and the FP 3794HTA, so it is a good base for taking such a turbo to it's limit :)

More on this GT3794R HTA prototype, it is now released as the Super94HTA and apparently spools better than and makes more power than both the PT6766 and the GT3794R HTA... it has been tested on a Mitsi AWD drag car which has run the previous turbos and on a slippery track this weekend it ran 8.4 @ 177mph - huge MPH for a car running a T3 based turbo.

So anyone certifiable who was looking for something in the 6766/3794 size range - they are now available to buy:

First 7s car I am aware of running a single T3 turbo, using a .85a/r FP Super 99HTZ:

And an AWD DSM ran a 1000ft test run this weekend and lifted to hit 8.2 at 153mph also using an HTA - they only had an 8.5 certified cage and had suspected they MIGHT go too fast, hence lifting at 1000ft.... but were kicked out due to still going way too quick. Seems like there may be a couple of 7s AWDs and a number of low 8s ones running these turbos in the near future :)

Agreed, just pointing out it is still a large turbo - but it is SERIOUS business... especially when no one has pushed a 99HTZ to it's limits, yet.

A Supra owner in the US has upgraded from their old Borg Warner S467 T4 turbo to a T3 flanged FP Super99HTZ and picked up 15% more power with a huge increase in spool - they run a Powerglide and usually use a transbrake however they are testing for an event this weekend where the class they will be in doesn't allow transbrakes, so they did testing using a foot brake starting at low boost to see how much they could hold back with the foot brake and have already laid down a 8.97 @ 151mph... I suspect when they get to a meet they can use the transbrake and wind up the boost a few eyebrows will be raised - not that running 8s on a T3 based turbo with a Supra isn't pretty unreal as it is!

Not with the new turbo yet, today it was it's first runs - the turbo seems to have maxed out at about 36psi (with 280deg cams) but I don't know what boost it was running for the 8 - definitely not 36psi.

Here's a dyno vid (unfortunately they only uploaded to FB): https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=194348620749465&set=vb.173984302785897&type=2&theater'>https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=194348620749465&set=vb.173984302785897&type=2&theater

Dyno numbers will be a bit messed up due to the loose Powerglide - but a Supra running 8s at >150mph is going to be making north of 900hp to start with, it isn't running NOS and it did it off the foot brake with more boost in it.... so safe to say that it's already a pretty stout result :)

    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
