  1. 2G Any complications in inverting the turbo orientation?

    For the size gate you are attempting to run and all the poor angles, yes. Will it work, maybe. It certainly would work at high boost. If you are trying to run like 5psi, you will likely have problems.
  2. Turbo sizing, are my manual calculations right?

    they certainly don’t make that here. The most I have ever made on a non inflated Dyno is 330whp. Back when we had no choice there was a Dyno jet that always gave “great” numbers. That one did 415whp on a 2.3L on e85.
  3. 2G Any complications in inverting the turbo orientation?

    Looks like they care trying to run one gate for both sides.
  4. PTE 6466 vs Xona 9569S

    Here is a fwd, 2.0, manual trans hx52 I was a part of for a very long time. At altitude of course.
  5. PTE 6466 vs Xona 9569S

    Here is a video of my HX52 maxed out. Dyno graphs shown somewhere in there.
  6. PTE 6466 vs Xona 9569S

    The HX52 is still a small shaft turbo. Even with the the large Holset housing, I still ended up snapping the turbine shaft on two different occasions over spinning them. That is when I started using back pressure to tune cars. My only experience is at altitude but, the 6466 with the .82 Vband...
  7. PTE 6466 vs Xona 9569S

    Those bolt on jobs don’t work that well though. Especially at altitude. Back pressure problems and under perform like you wouldn’t believe. Racing at sea level and at 6000ft are not the same. And that goes for turbos across the board.
  8. PTE 6466 vs Xona 9569S

    I can agree to that. That is why I personally run old diesel turbos. I can build an entire car for $4,000 even still today. I have nothing against precision or xona but, for an average guy like me, whatever “edge” the provide, it isn’t within my budget.
  9. PTE 6466 vs Xona 9569S

    They are around. And so is video. My name is all over the internet. I even ran an hx52 on my 4g61 originally.I do not have any favorites as I am not willing to spend large amounts of money for someone’s name. Xona would be at the bottom of the list however.
  10. PTE 6466 vs Xona 9569S

    On our 6466 car with a .82 Vband housing we ran out of turbo at literally the exact same back pressure as you reported above. Verified on the Dyno of course.I find it interesting you are out of turbo on the other two at a lower back pressure but, are not seeing the actual gains and benefits...
  11. PTE 6466 vs Xona 9569S

    Like I have been saying to everyone. Those turbos are just expensive paperweights. Sit down and look at what class racers(think World Cup finals type cars) are running. You will see very few people running the Xona stuff. I personally would pit a junkyard hx52 against what you have and be in the...
  12. 2G Borg Warner s485

    This guy ^^^ has no f***ing clue what he is talking about. A 6466 will not meet your goals. We run a maxed out 6466 and it is no where close to what he is claiming.I have also personally maxed out a 369sxe on two different cars and neither of those were even close to 900whp. Think, hundreds of...
  13. Where did the bolt on turbos go??

    It is 2021. Put a T3 manifold on the car and quite limiting yourself. Why after 30 years is this the only community that chooses to handicap itself with a shitty turbine footprint?
  14. My compound turbo build

    This is at 37psi. The run before I stayed in it a little longer as the car waited a longer to try and kill us. The big turbo is all in by 6500. The road was terrible but, they car won’t go straight anymore.She is scary now. For sure going to the Dyno next week.
  15. My compound turbo build

    The intake is not finished yet. Once I mount the front end I will lengthen it. It is finished though and ready for testing. The Dyno has a car stuck on it until at least the middle of next week. I will report back once I can get on there. It would be nice to find the limit of the clutch so I can...
  16. My compound turbo build

    This is my third attempt at this now. I ended up moving to a 16 valve Miata/Capri cylinder head. This essentially fixed the car and I picked up 135whp by simply swapping the head on.I finally made some progress and maxed out a GT3071 sized turbo. So back to compounds as displacement is still...
  17. Hallman MBC - Another one..

    You want to run with the big boys you have to get creative. I no longer use manual controllers though. The electronic solenoids are now my weapon of choice.
  18. Hallman MBC - Another one..

    I sacrifice two clicker pens. I then install both of those springs inside the heavier spring that Hallman provides. This has been good to 52psi in the past. You likely have other issues.
  19. My compound turbo build

    I was able to get my crankshaft and started assembling my built engine. I am pretty much ready to start testing and turning it up as I hope I can trust these parts I had manufactured. I am just waiting for the flange of the exhaust manifold to be resurfaced as it is warped badly. It was warped...
  20. My compound turbo build

    Initial testing was a success. Now to put a bigger spring in for the low pressure turbo and really get her dialed in. It spools exactly the same as it did with nitrous. It does not seem to be making as much power yet as the nitrous. That is a given considering how nitrous works.I am at 28psig...
  21. My compound turbo build

    Ford Festiva. Factory 1.3L B3 engine. The Miata cam angle sensor bolts right into the head. And is the exact same thing as the 1G cam angle sensor. And 21 years of using dsmlink it was a no brained. My Mercedes with a Volvo engine uses dsmlink as well.Quiet now with two mufflers.
  22. My compound turbo build

    High pressure Volvo 16tLow pressure Holset H1CI have already ran a 13T with success on this car. It spooled very well, just about maxed out the compressor though.I put the H1C on and I had to go to nitrous to spool it. I actually had to spray bit full time to get anything out of it. The...
  23. My compound turbo build

    Just oil feed lines away now
  24. My compound turbo build

    No. It runs in alcohol via 8 injectors.stage 327
  25. Holset backpressure

    The biggest name brand cam you can get. My go to cams are GSC S3’s. They have fixed every car I have ever installed them in. I took a 2g this spring with this exact looking curve and made it stand all the way up out the back moving from kelford 272’s to the S3’s. And this was at 750hp and...
  26. Holset backpressure

    Your transmission and baby cams are why your curve looks the way it does. You got the results you should expect.you think you have back pressure problems, install a sensor, log it and report back with factual information. Not someone’s guess.I am a big advocate for using back pressure data...
  27. My compound turbo build

    Now this is not 4g63 related but, I have taken my inspiration from the other members in the past. It is kind of 1/3 related as this a dsmlink powered car with a 1g ignition, 1g throttle body, old school low impedance dsm injectors and so on.
  28. 2G High IAT

    Junk intercooler and drawing in hot air. Not sure you can expect different results without changing parts. Mishimoto is poor quality. Everything they make struggles to work from what I see here locally.
  29. What Turbo is this? [Merged] Turbo ID Identification

    Sure looks like a 20g to me that has been played with. The compressor is quite chewed up as well.
  30. Compound Turbo Thread

    We have been toying with the idea of moving away from our C53A chassis and putting all of the parts into a rear wheel drive chassis. One big thing is we are heavily considering going to compounds to keep it simple and maybe keep away from nitrous and tricky converter stuff.we currently are...
  31. 2G Need help selecting new turbo

    Then something with a T2/T25 footprint is the answer you are looking for. I don’t know why these guys convinced you to go backwards and move to the terrible TD05 footprint. No one else in the car industry uses it and has success with the typical footprints.T25 Gt2052 T28 Disco potato Gt2254...
  32. 1G Wastegate gone bad?

    It won’t seal well anyway. The obvious cracks would prevent it from doing its job well. Those are exhaust leaks around the flapper.
  33. 1G Turbo hits block:(

    Machine the head flange or turbo flange at an angle. I have done both with that manifold plenty of times without issue.
  34. 1G Considering bigger turbo and going back to 93ct

    You would likely have a 12 second car if nothing changed but the fuel. The car can still be fast, just expect to be smiling a whole lot less when you go play. I bet an 8-12 mph is a realistic loss.
  35. 2G S369 SX-E Anybody Run One!??

    I have good and bad news. The bad news is I tuned the car yesterday but, i don't have any good numbers to give you guys as we had some trouble with the wheel speed/tach pick up on the dyno and it was spinning incredibly hard on the dyno even with 8 straps on the car (6 on the front end) and up...
  36. 2G Vacuum Caps

    I do like I did. Weld them shut.If you tap the holes and install set screws make sure to use cement to seal them and to make sure the never come out.
  37. 2G Vacuum Caps

    Why not remove the unwanted nipples (heat is your friend), tap the holes and plug them with some set screws? No need for cheap caps ever again.
  38. 2G S369 SX-E Anybody Run One!??

    I just need a wastegate diapragm and we can head to the dyno and make some noise.
  39. 2G S369 SX-E Anybody Run One!??

    On my way to get coolant so I can fire the bi*** for the first time in 8 months.
  40. 2G S369 SX-E Anybody Run One!??

    I should have this up and running by the end of the week. I just have to shorten our pipe a little and weld the elbow to the housing. Pretty darn close now. Dyno results soon.
  41. 2G BorgWarner s400 t6, good for my build?

    In our experience it would not. 2.0L, revhard open t4 manifold, open t6 adapter and divided 1.32a/r t6. Manual transmission.By 9500rpm it would only get to 15psi no matter what we tried. It just never turned the corner and did what it was suppose to.
  42. 2G BorgWarner s400 t6, good for my build?

    There is no T4 option for the 96mm exhaust wheel. It does not exist.
  43. 2G S369 SX-E Anybody Run One!??

    We melted the inducer on a 6466 running 40psi (really hard to do at 6000ft). We were using a .82 T3 housing. There was no indication any material or debris when through the exhaust. Very low mileage on the turbo. It was all in at 530hp uncorrected on the mustang dyno we use. The car went...
  44. 13g to 16g swap help

    Coolant lines are smaller and will not work. Oil lines will work without issue.
  45. 2G 2g Auto HY35 T3 Compressor Clearance Problems..

    We had to mill the flange in our manifold to make the stock holset housing work.
  46. Precision 6466 and 2.3 stoker

    No engine makes horsepower. They only make torque. Horsepower is a byproduct of torque and just a marketing term.And your turbocharger is now your restrictor plate. It can only flow so much air regardless of what is behind it.
  47. Precision 6466 and 2.3 stoker

    And what he said just adds to what I said above. If you have a 400ci engine or a 1.5L Honda and strap a GT35 on both engines, you are only going to make a potential 600hp for both. You are limited by what the turbo has to offer. No two ways about it.
