Rb25 - 1/8Th Mile Drags

[Adz2332]

yer thats what im thinking... Im going to get out a few dyno sheets of that and the slss2 and make my decisions from there i think.. think they are the front runners.

what housings?

Bri73y's HTA3076 is a .82a/r housing - not sure if you have seen 34GeeTeeTee's result, but they are arguably the perfect middle of the road turbo for an RB25, spool closer to a GT3071R than a normal GT3076R and make pretty huge power

Check out his result etc here: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/426059-forced-performance-hta-turbos/

Mat's (and Bri73y's for that matter) power level in a light car should be good for 10s down the 1/4 "all in".

is there a GTX 3076 vs HTA 3076 thread anywhere??

As ive read a few on different sites... ie

"I have no proof to back my statement but I disagree. Gtx is the newest pinnacle of research from a massive company. HTA is a modified turbo from a shop which made it in advance of Garrett's current offering. Again, no proof just following logic. "

In the US and other places where people have used both (not specifically in the car) the consensus seems to be the HTA usually makes similar power but much more responsive.

big price difference between them also?

[Lithium]

Have a look around, HTA may be marginally more expensive but again if you need to get the whole bunch Bri73y might be selling a whole HTA combo which may be more convenient

defs could be interested...

If you are serious about power and response and have a little bit of budget, Have a look at our SS alpha series which is an multi stage CBB VNT turbocharger. That drives as a factory turbocharger pulling 383rwkws. This is much more then a .82 single stage 60mm turbine with a billet compressor can archive.

Of course the question is, is it heads up racing you want to do, or just chase ET's

1 thing that irks me is seeing Turbo cars sit on the line for 30 secs trying to make boost while the car in the other lane is half way down the return road

Massive +1 to all of that. "Oh hey I ran a 9 sec pass"... but it actually took 3 seconds to build boost on the brake to get that 9 sec pass and the car that runs 12s passed the line before me.

Works great for street light warriors though, you get a good 5 seconds to sit on the trans if you can read traffic lights well lol

A properly set-up car, won't need to worry about that. There was a VL turbo down here actually racing in S/S - That earns massive respect.

But yes, manual is going to make it had. You really need to have an anti-lag type set-up so you can build boost and leave the line with as much power as possible.

Only problem - anti lag puts quite a lot of stress on parts. Nitrous is another thing to perhaps consider, as is a great tyre/rear end setup and if possible - staged launch control

I may have missed it but is there any reason you don't go a dirty thirty since your going to build a forged motor anyone, will deffenintly help with response, both off the start line and between gears

Hahaa, Gotta laugh when a 16sec NA corolla is on the back road before the other car comes off the trans brake

Also...I should mention that the rear end setup is worth 11ty compared to an engine coning on boost 100rpm earlier
