thinking of a turbo setup

edub370

TBH tho, for the minimal boost that most people run on these cars (anywhere from 7-10psi most of the time) a larger turbo isn't needed because 600whp is the danger zone for these engines. seems almost like a smaller turbo would serve a better purpose for the boost that we are running, no?

I agree

This is true to a degree. Once people start building the engines, this becomes a problem. Now you have to use a large turbine for the added flow, but you will lose a lot of spool with a kit that places the turbo far from the engine. Also, these engines are not made to be torque monsters, so low RPM boost does not play a big role. This is a high revving V6 and it makes its power at 4500rpm+.

I will have 4 turbine options, so it will cover everything from a stock block to a fully built one.



No such thing, it must be a T4 .68 then.

When will the kits be ready?!?!

Mike@GTM

Ours is ready right now and has been proven over the last 3 years around the world.

I would love the get the Twin kit but my wife would be cutting off my twins because of the price tag. Im look for the single turbo alternative due to price. Can a single turbo like an STS kit be able to have the same HP and proformance and a twin turbo kit?

Lol your opening a can of worms with This question

Mike@GTM

I can empathize with that sentiment. haha

The answer to your horsepower question is yes...they can make the same power...so do our supercharger kits.

The key is "performance". On this platform, a supercharger kit, a single turbo kit, and a twin turbo kit will all perform differently, in a "Good", "Better", "Best" sort of way. Sure, they all make boost and more or less the same horsepower on a stock engine. The real difference is how they deliver the power, and in terms of area under the curve, it is tough to beat the twin turbo systems on this platform.

Boosted Performance

Not really :

Power under the curve, I would say this is solid and comparable to a twin kit (twin scroll kit on a stock block 04 350z, on 9psi).



As for what is good, better, best...it all depends on the driver, and what the car is being used for.


Not trying to ster things up...just saying.

Mike@GTM

So, you're trying to tell me that you would basically rather save $500 to get something like the graph you posted than get something like this?


I think the graph speaks for itself.

I agree with you that one size does not fit all...and that is why we offer so many different stages and options. People that go with our stuff can run whatever exhaust they want on both manual and automatic cars. If they want max power and go with our 3" cat-back they can do that, or use whatever off the shelf cat-back they want with whatever test pipes or HFC's they want. Internal gates or external gates, open dump or recirculating...whatever floats your boat. Not to mention that our turbo kit doesn't have to be removed to do a clutch job.

Don't get me wrong Sasha, you have clean welds and I tip my hat to you for making a viable single turbo option as a part time venture and doing a way better job of it than STS did.

White flag

I think I just started a small war

Sorry!!!

Ackrite

I don't think there's anything wrong with having two companies competing in the same market "fight" for customers. Just my :two cents:. Either way when I'm ready, I'm going with GTM since they are only about 15 minutes from me.

^^^awesome man^^^ congrats.

Id wait for Fast intention Twin turbo kit.

then decide from there...

Might as well wait for GTM "twin" supercharger..
