Yeah I already did that. These were pics of the (almost) final build. I took a grinder bit to that area and made it the same size as the turbine inlet with a template I made.
yes, a gap of .024" should suffice for most. I ran .032" up to 19psi without blowout, but that was probably just luck. Going over 19psi resulted in blowout.
The turbos that use this 1.06 housing are usually only rated to 400-450hp. So I'm gonna try to grind out the last few inches of divider to open up the flow a little...
I may end up doing that, but I wanna keep the TS if possible. The GT3076r spools like a .64ar GT2871r. Probably faster. Not quite as fast as a disco, but response is very very close.
When i dyno log manifold with VET cams I made 442whp. Going TS with the .78 housing I made 446 or something like that. Now, it is about 450whp. The bigge...
I did see Jp's dyno of the VET cams and it was very impressive. For different reasons than his SR16 cams. the powerband was huge, the torque flat, and the massive amount of power available made it ...
I think the boost is kinda lazy, but it seems about right for what you have. Getting the exhaust side to actually spool the turbo is the trick. I see 15psi by 3800rpm. But our setups are at extreme...
I did it for the upgradeability and to try something others had not. I like to be different, and try new things. The TS gives way better response on the street while still providing good overall po...
Try just riding RPM up and slowly hit the VVL as you steadily creep up the rev range. You should feel that bog I was telling you about. Under part throttle, even with my current setup, I get a slig...
