Single, you aren't worried about lag, and changing A/R on a single turbo to get it all working as you want is a lot cheaper than on 2 turbos, the manifolding is easier, access is easier and pulling the engine is easier. I'd go for a Garrett on an HKS manifold and TRY an HKS wastegate, but you end up having to use a better made item, they can, from what I hear, be a bit suspect. Sometimes it's easier just to have a custom manifold made and choose exactly the turbo and wastegate direct from specialist suppliers.

 

If it's an auto though be aware that they can be really horrible unless you change stall speed of convertor, the box and convertor are mapped / built to expect boost to start around 1500 RPM...

 

Consider what ECU you want to run too, before you even start. Using the stock one is not an option at all, IMO.

Don't Greddy use KKK turbos? Reasonable parts and knowledge available for KKK in the UK, but getting pro advise on re sizing if you don't like the way it performs is a LOT easier with Garett, and you can usually find someone to swap Garett housings with you. Avoid IHI, spares are very hard to come by, and maps et cetera even more so. If you are going to be happy to just fit and forget the turbo sized as it comes the Greddy stuff looks good, I can even give you some discount on most kits if you e-mail me when you decide which way to go.

Hmm, one of the jap turbo kit makers use KKK, thougght it was Greddy. I would have to say the Mitsubishi turbos would make me swerve away from Greddy if that is the case, if you decide to play with housings to move boost positions and levels around, or to get rid of any other snag, Mitsubishi stuff will be a nightmare or impossible to source. In the UK Garett is so much better to work with, followed by KKK. HKS us Garett turbos.

Although the greddy t88h will give more all out power for anything within that price range.Whereas the hks twins cost more but which will give me more power with same setup...the twins or t88 single?

As stated before lag is not in the equation..when it spools i need all out power until the redline.

I can't say without having the air flow maps for both set ups in front of me. I can probably get them for the HKS, dunno about the Greddy. This is why i tend to buy a manifold then get a turbo to a known and suitable spec made up, but it is a PITA to do it that way compared to a kit. HKS do a single kit, too, that may be better, again, `cod it's a Garett. It really is a nightmare to find the turbo can't be rebuilt in the UK!!

Yeah the t51r turbo..yes iv seen this produce more than 1000 crank hp on a supe.

Actually get me a price on this 1 as well pls.

I M considering all turbos...so just let me know whenever no rush!

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks

KKK or IHI are Blitz units not GReddy.

 

A T-63 - T-66 would flow enough for 600RWHP with a sufficently large A/R.

 

A T-70 would give you a bit of breathing space and allow for a smaller A/R.

 

A/R has a big impact on spool time.

 

An HKS T04R is also suitable.

 

Greddy T-78 or T-88 are too big for your application.

Thanks Alex, far too hung over to try and find any airflow sheets! For what it's worth, if it were my car I would look to a single TO4 or perhaps the T-66 family. the single biggest mistake end users make when choosing turbos is buying them too big, it's the simplest way to build an engine that disappoints. If in doubt, err to the smaller turbo.

Consider this (all prices in dollars from MVP)

 

 

PHR Stage 2 Turbo kit 5800

PHR Stage 2 fuel kit 2500

RPS Clutch 700

AEM mappable ECU 1429

Greddy 3-row IC with pipes 1424

 

I reckon around 600-650bhp wih meaningful power from 4k rpm onwards. I may have missed a few items off the list, and theres mapping and install costs, but that's about all you need. About £8000 sterling. Plenty of USA daily-driver cars running 10.x@130mph on this setup with drag radials.

why do you need a turbo with out and out power?

i would like to find out about options availible for an auto.

 

check this site out for lots of turbos for sale

In which case just do the job once...

 

If you want 1,000bhp then get a nice pair of 3037's from HKS and have done with it...no point going to 600hp then upping it....if you have a turbo that's too big it will be slow to spool be shit to drive and make you unhappy. You can sell the turbo and buy another one and plonk it on the same manifold.

what you wanting huge power for drag racing? dont sound like a track car

 

a t66 is supposed to be good for 700bhp with right mods

and fast spooling. think i would like fast spooling with pretty good power.

Drag only mate.....and then what 2 do......i know eventually itll b near the 1000hp m\ark,but i just wanna try 600 first,what if i get t88 with 70 shot nos,bought on low down to help it spool/

Yes that's possible but the T88H is still the wrong turbo.

 

HKS T51R (SPL or KAI can't remember which) will have a better compressor/exhaust wheel design IMO.

 

Yes you could use a NOS antilag system.

 

A proper ECU is a must for this sort of vehicle. You'll need to give it loads of advance to get the turbo to spin, port the head fit a different intake manifold and a full JUN valve train kit. You'll want more than 6,000CC's of injector flow and a huge fuel system to keep up. It won't idle well (well not below 1,000 rpm).

HKS T04R - guarenteed to fit a J-spec or UK car.

 

The fuel system is upto you. I would go for 850cc injectors plus twin Bosch pumps, all running through 8AN stainless piping from the pump to the injector rail. Not sure what size connectors the HKS rail comes with....

found out that the t51 and t88 and t04r are vey similary priced frm taka kaira.So they must be a bit more over here....by te way they r full turbine kits....manif....filter...front pipe...

So......i think the t51r is kinda nice?
