jase_93tt Posted April 30, 2005 Share Posted April 30, 2005 Who does the best hybrids in the UK ? Are they worth buying as Ive heard bad reports that hybrids dont give that much power over standard and because of they way the wheels are clipped, they dont last long. Any info much appreciated J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopite Posted April 30, 2005 Share Posted April 30, 2005 not sure about them being best, but Turbo Technic ones are very good. For the cost involved it might be better to go single. Speak to one of the main traders on here for some prices mate ENVY 01670 823333 Miami GT 07939111877 Vortex - they do a budget single kit good luck dude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heckler Posted April 30, 2005 Share Posted April 30, 2005 well today, quite warm out, WOT in 5th, "going down the runway" at XXXmph didnt go above 850 degs. Probe in No1 runner. Not too shabby. Gonna go on a RR bit closer to home! - once the emanage is mapped - still havent done it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonball Posted April 30, 2005 Share Posted April 30, 2005 Thats a good EGT result mate - Nish's seem to be keeping low too... Nice to see it going well! Actually - must also check on how C4SUP is getting on with my old set too...must be a few K on those too by now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Usmann A Posted April 30, 2005 Share Posted April 30, 2005 why not tap EGTs into no 6 runner? its suppose to be the hottest/leanest chamber due to the intake mani design .. etc? 850? nice to see what no.6 would be like eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragonball Posted April 30, 2005 Share Posted April 30, 2005 Well with no discernable difference found between all 6 it makes it a moot point - and still a good result! Must say I would prefer the post turbo position anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typicaly silly question coming up: Would a pair of CT20's from a later MR2T fit, to run sequentialy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonball Posted May 1, 2005 Share Posted May 1, 2005 Mmmm... Check this out m8 Toyota unfortunately has never published the compressor maps for its turbos. The CT20, as you can see was the first Toyota turbo, and is far from perfect. It has relatively restrictive turbine housing even for the stock horsepower levels of its applications. Lag is also considerable. Maximum flow is enough for about 210hp. Also, it is reported to fail around 100000km no matter how religiously you cool-down after driving and use best oils possible. Insulating the oil lines with thermal wrap and installing an oil temperature meter and if necessary oil cooler would be A Good Idea to prolong its lifespan. I've disassembled mine after it failed in very short period of time, after an estimated 80000-110000km. SOME CT20's have water cooled bearing housings, and some don't. Sure it isn't a CT26 in the latter ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazboy Posted May 1, 2005 Share Posted May 1, 2005 CT26 was in Rev1 &2, CT20 was in rev 3,4 &5. I had a CT26 in my Rev2, running 270bhp, spooled up very quickly (full boost by 2400rpm iirc- don't have the dyno chart anymore) running 1.1bar. I'm only guessing, but wouldn't a CT12 be the smallest, then the CT20, then the CT26 as the biggest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Terry S Posted May 1, 2005 Share Posted May 1, 2005 You found them then? And why duplicate perfectly good findings - do you have reason to suspect that everyone is lying including CW? Of course he is not accusing CW of lying Paul, but treat cars individually. You are very fond of quoting Dudes results usually, so why not ask him which cylinder he believes runs the leanest. I believe he, like Usmann has found #6 to run leanest. When we have the injectors tested we always put the highest flowing in #6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnA Posted May 1, 2005 Share Posted May 1, 2005 Interesting EGT threads these. Another point one might want to pick up is that this 6-EGT prob fellar was in Florida, and the supra most probably US spec, having the bonnet scoop similar to UK spec. I'm not sure how much this would affect the equalisation of EGTs in real life, but it certainly would have an effect (that was the reasoning of the whole setup anyway) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
