ok i read the previous thread and since it was 3 years old i would like to know if anyone since then has used one of these valves and any results

for reference, here is the link to the valve:

This is a great concept, but obviously will only work on twin scroll turbo's. Also I imagine this wouldn't work too well if you had a fully divided twin scroll exhaust manifold, as you'd be completely blocking off three of your exhaust runners. If I ever go to a larger (twin scroll) turbo, I'll be looking into getting one of these.

You need an open (non twin scroll) manifold along with a twin scroll turbo.

Mate has one on his supra and swears by it not sure what size turbo it is other than f**king huge precision and it spools by 4000 and pulls right thru to 8500 running 20psi As to where itd spool without it who knows but he is areal happy with it compared to his old t4 setup (yea no real facts in that statement but positive feedback lol)

thats the kind of feedback i was after!

would you be able to find out what manifold he is running and what gate size as well as model of precision?

i would appreciate that info greatly!

=)

that would be a cool comparison to see. But using a twin scroll turbo and normal highmount manifold sounds kind of backwards, you would lose some top end power VS a true TS system. So you would want this 'quick spool' valve to really work down low

I would think this is a rudimentary way of achieving what a VNT turbo is doing.

Ideally would work but would be prone to failures

Seen heaps of YouTube clips of it working

when i looked at these maybe 5 months ago i found allot failures

generally failure occurs were the were the 2 rivets on the flapper mount to the arm

results were comparable to just running a normal twin scroll manifold the quick spool valve had better results on larger turbos 72mm and up from what i found

i have a thread on here floating around some were

    • I put another 2 layers of putty and still getting pinholes. Think i might either try the filler first then putty or just leave the little specs of guidecoat as is and get primer to fill it in. I think i misread understood what you said above when you said my glazing putty wasnt enough for the size of the area. I thought you meant 1 coat and i needed to. But i think what you meant was that I needed filler first? I also went a bit too far out the repair area as my spreader is a bit large.
    • You do sorta. In my instance they were little specs and I didn't even think they'd be pin holes but it all makes sense now. Huge learnings there!
    • Ah ok that makes sense and it's where i think i went wrong because before when i put filler then putty, i didn't have this issue and now i do because i only put 1 coat of putty. Thanks for that heaps man, it's a good way to put it! With my putty I'm using the dolphin glaze which i just saw it says finishing putty lol. I didnt put filler cause it was a shallow area but i see what you're saying. Also I'm an idiot, i just realised that while i put new putty there are pinholes! I probably saw it before and ignored it for whatever reason. I think because i thought putty is used to fill pin holes that itself wont make pinholes but that's incorrect of course. I feel silly now haha. ok I think I know what to do next. Thanks man!
    • Yes correct, the guide coat is showing low spots, in this instance the low spots are pin holes. I agree wetting the areas makes it more visible (but you can see it's there before you wet it as well lol).  Once the panel is flat, the guide coat will be gone  
    • I wouldn't do it outside, the contamination landing in the paint, the wind and a million other things will drive you crazy.     That's a way too big of an area to use your single stage putty on.  Pretend it's all filler and those pin holes appeared, you'd then use the putty on those pin holes.  They are still pin holes, hmm I expect a few coats of high fill primer could deal with those.
