hot off the dyno..

[tsoob]

i assume u guys mean t04es? t3/4 are the flanges but yeh thats will be the limiting factor, dude at work has same engien etc with link and a master power t70 i think just over 300kw atw on 11psi

T3/T4 actually refers to the fact its a hybrid of wheels - not flanges. Most Garrett naming bases on which turbine wheel then compressor wheel family is being used, so with a T3/T4 (which is overly vague) you have a T3 turbine wheel of some sort and a T4 compressor wheel of some sort whacked together in some set of housings. Could be a 50a/r compressor cover and .63a/r turbine housing, could be anything which can be made to fit.

Maxing out below 260rwkw must be a pretty small T3/T4, though one of my mates had a Steve Murch built T3/T4 (not a random nasty) max out by 250rwkw at 18psi on his RB30. Pulled that off and put on a GT3582R and with a bit of tune fiddling it put out over 300kw on the same boost, albeit a little more lag.

The size isin't the main problem, the inlet temp heat is a real problem we are looking at next will be building cold air box etc at the air filter the air temp is 90 degrees.

90 degrees at the inlet manifold after the intercooler?
i would suggest cleaning the intercooler, cause if it's that hot after it, it's not doing anything... at all.

even if there is no airflow to the intercooler, it will still take temp out of the intake charge, until it reaches saturation.

How hot are the endtank getting?
For my old turbo car, the in side was hot, the other side was always ice cold.

Cheers, Mike

no no - as he said - at the air filter the temps were 90

Yeah thats just ridiculously hot at the air filter - how on earth did you manage that? Under bonnet temps shouldn't be anywhere near that high, surely...

Note from Matt @ Magwarehouse.com;

It's not a T3/T4, It's garrett GT3582R

did you see the pics of the manifold?

hahaha yeah I reckon! that's some pretty serious heat!!!

I cant wait to get mine re-done and take some photo's of the manifold haha.

Yah, looks strangely familiar

oo k haha opps my bad

[mjrstar]

quite a tidy job, i still think my car may be a little looser.

[soopachargen]

I saw this car in the flesh today, damn, its hot. The stretch on the rears is something to behold.

what size tyres is it running on the back?

[tsoob]

you just need to get out and drift it now!~

they are a 205/40/17 on a 9" wide rim the streach is sick

[cat007]

I don't understand stretching.

Surely there's a chance the tyre will "pop" off?

[barryogen]

indeed there is, it leaves you with pretty much no sidewall flex, so it tends to break traction more easily, so I guess that would help it not pop off.

that makes no sense, we have not had one pop off yet and we stretch on a lot of tyres for these drift guys.

[soopachargen]

haha i have 205/40/17s on my 17x9 .coms too:P what brand did you use? my khumos fitted right up without any trouble, its a pretty crazy stretch tho i do agree.

[barryogen]

what bit of it makes no sense?

[soopachargen]

a low profile tyre is hard to break the bead on when its got no air in it, when they have 36-45 psi surely it would be even harder to get off?

[bluemaumau]

what! do you have 9 inch rims on your wagon soopachargen?

[soopachargen]

yeah...17x9s at a 15p offset, check out the wheel thread http://forums.toyspeed.org.nz/viewtopic.php?t=65106&start=120
