Hi all,

I've got a 25 with top mount manifold running a t3/t4 which is supposed to be a 450hp turbo.

Now my questions are as follows...

If a turbo is rated at 450hp at 20psi what power in kw will it make at the wheels ?

Which is the best turbo for a 25 as an upgrade out of gt30,gt35,gt3540 or gt3040.

I dont want exessive lag so i was going for a .82 exhaust housing so i basically want to know which will go about making 300rwkw with the most bottom end to midrange on the least boost.(ideally 18psi)

Thanks for any help.

450bhp / 1.34 = 335kw

less ~60 kw for losses = 275 rwkw.

An example, we have an R34GTT with a GCG ball bearing hi flow and it makes 265 rwkw.

Hope that helps :uh-huh:

What about this turbo pushing 7psi on some crazy 6ltr stroker ? stupid I know but the car will make more then 450HP !!

Its silly to assume the turbo on any given boost is going to produce ex amount of power on your car. The turbo being rated at 450HP means it can flow 450HP but before this turbo goes on your car you might already be making more then 450HP...

As for 270rwkw at 20psi with that turbo you might not even get that !

Get your max fuel/ignition to boost levels you/your tuner want. See what power you make then that’s a clearer indication of what turbo you should go to.

IE: 14psi might be more efficient then 20psi on your car's setup. No one can answer that but the tuner on the day.

Ah no, the turbo only flows enough air for 450 bhp (about 45 lbs per minute). So if you put it on a 600 bhp (without turbo) engine, it will loose power. ;)

That wasnt what I said I said the 600Bhp motor would still make more then 450HP thats what I said. I know the restriction in its exhaust (the little turbo) will cause it to lose power.

Read more carefully.

Still no!. The turbo flows 45 lbs of air max, so the engine makes ~ 450 bhp, not 500 bhp or 550 bhp. :cooldance

Would anyone else like to answer my q?

WHAT ****KING TURBO SHOULD I BUY TO MAKE 300 RWKW WITH THE MOST BOTTOM END TO MIDRANGE AND ON THE LEAST BOOST?

Are they all that similar with the .82 back?

Cheers :rolleyes:  :rant:

What other mods are you doing for the 300 rwkw? The turbo is best chosen with all the facts known. :cooldance

Honest to god if you believe that Im going to prove it wrong to you in person, just give me 3 weeks till this 6ltr stroker is finished and ill show you it peel over 450HP with a 450HP turbo on it. You can watch it get dynoed.

:headspin: :headspin:

If it flows more than 45 lbs of air per minute, then it isn't a 450 bhp turbo. :)

Well, well, whadyaknow, here was me thinking this guy is crazy. You are going to have some strange tuning issues to overcome though. :)

      How "plug and play" is the Haltech Pro for R33 GTST

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      I would not be surprised if you are the only person on earth that has the interest/desire to do that lol.  The Haltech base map is a really good starting point, the car will fire easily and drive very well, even on mild boost levels. To me, following your advice sounds like some sort of ancient Chinese water torcher lol (this is not an insult Josh, never change <3)

      Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.

      A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new
