turbo3rdgen

i have it on mine and its is a good system. it was tuned by stage 6 and its VERY quick. i have a 97 4runner limited 2wd and this thing is just plain wicked...i love it and recommend it

How long have you had the kit? Give us a rundown of your specs/mods. Pictures would surely be nice too

turbo3rdgen

now my driveside manifold is stock but the turbo side is a custom stage 6 setup.

Texas_Ace

?? How is the manifold stock or custom if it is the CXracing kit. The manifold IS the kit, or at least the only part that matters.

How was it tuned? What are you using for tuning? When does the turbo spool?

Some better pictures would be nice.

turbo3rdgen

here it is

turbo3rdgen

i am working on other pics...downloading now then transfering here

turbo3rdgen

here is the injector


if you look close you will see the stock manifold


this is the custom mainfold...i will try to get better pics tommorrow


the turbo,piping,bov,wastegate...everything but manifolds is from cx. stage 6 put it together then i bought it from their customer, like i said we will tear it done and go through it and make it better, improve some stuff and i will be able to tell you more about whats done to it...because we would have done it...btw i own Tuten Motor Works.

turbo3rdgen

just talked with po and stage 6, its not a cx racing, its all stage 6 design...my bad.

turbo3rdgen

and monday they are giving me a complete run down and dyno sheet on this thing....stay tuned

Texas_Ace

Can't wait! How much boost is it running?

Also can we get a full mod list?

turbo3rdgen

11 psi is what the gauge said when i get on it

Dirt Driver

I would guess that puts it in the 280rwhp range.

Texas_Ace

With an intercooled GT35 properly setup and tuned I would actually not be surprised at all to see a fair amount more then that. With the stock supercharger maybe 250whp if he was lucky lol.

Boost really means virtually nothing. The same boost with a small turbo and a large turbo will make drastically different HP.

This has got me so pumped... My Holset will be here about Wednesday and wastegate on Thursday. My oil pump, fittings, and lines are in.

@turbo3rdgen that's a legit looking setup if you're pushing 11psi. Can't wait for more pics and dyno numbers even.

Texas_Ace

So building your own kit with the CX manifold I take it? Be sure to take pictures of fitment and any notes on the install.

Sorry I put that in a misleading thread. I'm doing remote mount.

Texas_Ace

Ah, still nice though. Turbo > supercharger all day.

Dirt Driver

I thought the turbo was some Chinese thing, not a Garrett GT.

Boost means a lot, it is just misused most of the time. I was assuming 190bhp to start and a 6.81% power increase for each pound of boost. 190 + 75% = 332bhp. Take out 15% for driveline loss assuming a manual transmission and the rwhp is 282. It is only an idealized estimation.

Texas_Ace

It is a china GT35 knock off. Same size, heck same wheels possibly, just china made.

Boost means nothing when talking HP.

Those calculations do not work in the real world.

Perfect example is my MR2. On the stock turbo at 17psi it was making ~270whp.

With the ONLY change being a slightly larger turbo (by no means a large turbo, just an S252) it went from making 270whp at 17psi to over 325whp. Not a single other change was made to the car. If I was to toss a 6466 on that same setup it would make significantly more power at the same boost yet again.

So you see, boost means nothing. Mass air FLOW is what matters. The larger turbo flowed more and the larger turbine improved the VE of the engine once again allowing it to flow more.

Dirt Driver

*sigh* I said idealized estimation for a reason.

Your MR2 not a perfect example. It's not even an applicable example as presented, but lets compare a stock 3SGE and 3SGTE from the same era anyway. 135hp vs. 200, giving the GTE 48% more than the GE. It takes about, what, 12psi to do that? That's 4.0% per psi, far lower than my numbers. Lets be generous and say it takes only 7psi to do that: 48 ÷ 7 = 6.86% per psi, right inline with my previous numbers.

I know that air mass flow is the end-all, be-all, but it is directly influenced by temperature, volume, and pressure, which is why boost does not "mean nothing."
