Kopite Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 Are the turbos your own that were reconditioned or are they from another car? Are you UK or Jspec? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 Just bung them on, it'll be fine (if you really want hybrids, I wouldn't want them myself) Just don't push the boost too high until you sort your fuelling out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 You wouldn't notice the lagginess so much because you'd already be used to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andyhannah Posted June 4, 2006 Author Share Posted June 4, 2006 so the hybrids are quite laggy then???? i,m only using them till i get the big twins and then theyre going. but i dont wana knacker the supra by putting them on and not having the right settings:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 The serious answer is that the UK supras have adequate fuelling to run hybrids at 1.3bar but J-specs don't really. And yes Hybrids are quite laggy compared to J-spec turbos - but so are UK ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andyhannah Posted June 4, 2006 Author Share Posted June 4, 2006 so run them at stock boost to start then get an uprated fuel system and then up the boost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopite Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 so run them at stock boost to start then get an uprated fuel system and then up the boost. Injectors, fuel pump, plugs etc and a way of controlling them such as GReddy Emanage and the like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guru Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 If I were you I would do alot of homework on the Supra before I put big twins on...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyb10supra Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 im puttin hks big twins on later when i can afford it. but i have these hybrids sat around and someone wants my stockers Agree with the above!! Dont bother mate, it will be laggy as hell, stick with a small single....trust me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 Agree with the above!! Dont bother mate, it will be laggy as hell, stick with a small single....trust me I am confused. Why would hybrids run in sequential mode be as laggy as hell compared to a single turbo that will spool up later? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyb10supra Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 I am confused. Why would hybrids run in sequential mode be as laggy as hell compared to a single turbo that will spool up later? Sorry CJ maybe didnt read the above correctly, Hybrids will be quicker to spool, but a set of big twins like HKS or similar are very laggy on an auto unless you have high stall etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 Personally I would be worried about just putting a set of hybrids on and expecting the stock j-spec fueling to cope, if I did I'd keep the boost down to around 0.8bar. To do this you are going to have to fit a smaller restrictor ring. It would be a good idea to fit a wide band O2 sensor, or at the very least an EGT gauges so you can monitor things.

letmeshowyou Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 im puttin hks big twins on later when i can afford it. but i have these hybrids sat around and someone wants my stockers why are you putting hybrids on as a temporary measure if theres nothing wrong with your stock twins?! Or does someone want your stock ones to hybridise themselves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl0s Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 why are you putting hybrids on as a temporary measure if theres nothing wrong with your stock twins?!
