Guys this an unfinished project of mine, I didnt put the TO4 comp wheel on cause i have decided to sell my car. My intentions was to do the same mods that BOOSTED has done the only stage i got up to was machining the exhaust snout from 42mm to 52mm. Not sure how it would work on an RB20 but i know that BOOSTED has gotten upto 266rwkw

The non ball bearing vg30 turbos came with a steel exhaust turbine so i have been told. The VG30 Ball bearing came with a ceramic. With the mods that have been done to this turbo you dont need to run high boost to achieve good power. BOOSTED ran his @.9bar and got 266rwkw

Correct. This turbo has a ceramic wheel which results in sledge hammer style boost build. This turbo will not run more than 16-17psi boost due to the trim on the turbine. Due to the larger compressor wheel, the turbo spins at 90,000rpm instead of 121,000(t3) @ 15psi. Ceramic turbine failure is very very unlikely. Even at 17psi rpm is only 96,000.

I have constantley made 250+rwkw on 4 different dyno's on 14-17psi.

if you can't afford tyres DO NOT BUY tHIS TURBO- I was getting wheel spin on acceleration in 4th with 18" 275's. Good turbo for drift.....not very good for the hills as boost hits way to hard.

RB25 would expect FULL boost by 4100rpm

RB20 would be slighly later

Boosted sold me a steel wheel version quite a few

months ago. Will finally be putting it on after auto

salon.

MADGT4 i also have a 32 gts-4 so i will advise as soon

as it is installed and running. Most people are saying

i should make around 200 rwkw with 1 bar of boost.

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
