I don't think its fair to talk about twin scroll in light of gains over open, not at all. I believe it is more so a different result than it is an improvement as such.

The twin scroll will definitely bring boost on earlier but will also roll on/off smoother and give an overall more linear feel. Not everyone is into that, Owen's GTX is a good example. He and I had many a PM about that and it was honestly determined that he just wasn't happy with the twin scroll efforts. He much preferred the brute delivery of the open .82

In my own experience I am much the same. Not worried about smooth roll ons and how early it starts to make 'some' power. I am more concerned about how easily accessible power is and how hard it will pull at that point. For that I would say a good open housing will definitely deliver.

PM me your address, I'll send you my broken CT12a's after I rip them off the Snoarer, long as you're happy to pay the post

yeah that would be sweet....you broke them? just blown turbines I assume...

have you fixed your boost creep issue with the internal wastegate ?

Never really had boost creep problems, it's a back pressure issue. The exhaust housing I have is a little small for my RB30 with it's ported head, but I'm completely happy with the result I've got.......it's got easily enough HP for a road car (630 4whp) and the response is awesome. I could get more out of it if I changed to the larger housing, but I'm not going to bother.

    • I was poking through the R34 wiring diagrams vs R33 and noticed that the R34 has proper headlight relays while the R33 is like the R32 and sends full headlight power through the headlight switch. I'm not afraid of wiring but I really would like to do this in a way that looks OEM (clipping into open positions on the OEM relay box) and also unlike the factory wiring which interlocks the high beam and low beam on the halogen series 1 GTR headlights I want to make it such that turning on the high beams keeps the low beams on as well. Any advice on how to locate the specific connectors + crimp terminals + relays I need? I was thinking one NO relay for low beams and another for combined high + low running off the factory high beam headlight connector. I don't really want to splice into a crusty old probably discontinued factory harness so fully reversible is my goal here.
    • Pretty sure they run the same engine as the Q50 hybrid which specifies 95 RON.  I ran 98 in mine for a while, but it made no difference in performance or economy, so I have been using 95 for the last few years.  I have never hit 6.0L/100km, but have returned mid to high 6 on the highway.  Being a hybrid, fuel economy is a lot more dependant on how you drive it.  At 110km/h, mine never goes into EV mode on the highway, so returns closer to 7.5L/100. urban driving can return low 8s if you are careful or over 10 if you are a bit more enthusiastic on the throttle.
    • About a quarter of what you want to do. It's only R7R, not R&dismantle&replaceparts&reassemble&R. ? It is stock. I already told you, you will NOT have broken those. It's f**king 4th gear for Christ's sake. You just chipped the teeth off.
