Hi,
we tested it back to back with its O/E TD04 mapped at 274 BHP, we had to change the injectors as we quickly ran out of headroom, so a set of STI pinks were added and a new walbro pump, result was from 274 to 331 BHP.
Other mods that were already done to the car were de cat down pipe, de cat up pipe and a k&n cold air induction kit.
The whole ethos of this little spool monster was to bring a turbo to the table that was good enough to make the 300 BHP club and yet not require all the other upgrades needed at 350 BHP as in brakes, clutch etc.
However on road test the SC32 billet under load in 5th gear caused the clutch to slip, bugger !!, I feel that it must be a worn unit as good condition standard clutches take more that 330 BHP
Hope that helps answer a few of your queries.
cheers

Yes indeed, it's going very well mate.
Spools a couple of hundred rpm later than my old 20g but the power delivery is so bonkers now it'll literally bite your head off if you just floor it
With the Alcatek it makes full boost a few hundred rpm earlier though, so the response seems faster and just keeps going.
I strongly suspect it's capable of 160mph+ with this setup, early indications would certainly indicate as much

I might be selling my SC42 as I am thinking about a 2.3 stroker and Twinscroll SC46.

Hi,
sorry, top mount, not even an STI one, just a plain old WRX unit.
Lots more boost available, playing it well safe due to the WRX being an 02 plate bug eye with over 100 K on it, still well healthy though as its been looked after properly since day one, shows how good these cars are if serviced regularly.
Cheers

Cant wait for the results of the sc36
Also is the sc32 basically a td04 but with a billet wheel?

the SC32 Billet is a fully re furbished TD04 with our billet comp wheel,
Hence the low cost and exchange deal.

Ok after lots of emails to and fro cross Roads, some to Simon and tdr it turns out the turbo was in fact a sc46 billet and originally mapped on by Simon. Since last week some developments have gone on so the car went back to cross Roads. They took it up to tdr and it went on the rollers and it was running according to cross Roads 340 odd of each. Next was fitting a perrin induction kit and then mark had it back on the rollers for mapping. End result was I'm a happy chap. Ok its not pushing the boundaries to what the built and pinned 2.5 block can do or what the sc46 will run but from the info on was told it's mapped to 1.4 bar so i thought I would pop a graph up. This is the only one I have for now so here it to is
There's obviously plenty left in both and once the FMIC and a couple of smaller choice buts have been bought then it will be back up for a tweak
Any pointers and suggestions from you kev or any one else would be more than appreciated
Cheers and thanks for all the help previously

Hi,
as stated if you are still on O/E airbox them a Perring long or short ram induction kit will with a map tweak see up to 30 more ponies, I know that sounds incredible for such a small mod but we did one the other day with an SC36 Billet, the car would not go over 300 BHP, removed pipe to O/E air box and instant 35 BHP appeared, fitted an induction kit, final map and a nice 350 BHP was acieved.
Much to the customers embarrasment and he was adamant that after seeing the Skyline video that was circulating around Xmas he didnt need a cold air kit, the O/E air box would be fine as in the Nissan vid, how wrong he was.
Cheers

our findings are that the O/E air-box design on all scoobs are restrictive, 01 on cars gain just as much as classics with the addition of either a K&N typhoon or a Perrin long or short ram cold air induction kit.
However on some cars (non scoobs) we have found an induction kit can make them worse, the BMW air box design is one of them, replace it and loose power.

Kev, can you confirm the sc50 is still a 76mm inlet turbo and all the other direct fit jobs are still 56mm inlet? Its pretty easy to lose track of whats going on on this thread, maybe start another or at least put the most recent pricing and other info on the first post of the thread?
If the sc50 is still a 76mm inlet I can't find 76mm inlet pipe on the scoobyclinic shop 'classic' section, am I being blind or is there not one available?
Thanks

I will refresh the pricing as soon as I have time.
All the turbos in the range are 56mm inlet, however the SC50 is available in both sizes, 56mm and 76mm, inlet pipes are available in both sizes, either from Perrin or our own versions which are red or blue, as the web site has been re vamped its not fully populated yet, please call or drop me a mail if you want anything that doesn’t appear on the web site, chances are it will be in stock.
WE do have a used SC54 Billet with 76 mm entry, proven 576 BHP on a 20 % meth mix, £995.00 inc vat.
Thanks for your enquiry.
cheers

Thanks Kev, still in the planning and gathering cash stages so gutted I cant have that turbo off you. I'll probably still be at the same stage next year unless i win some dosh lol
Good to know that i wont have to change my inlet though, i was assuming it was 76mm inlet only on the SC50

I'd fit a FMIC, remap and if you want another wedge of power..... bang it on Meth. I'm loving mine on the Methanol mix and I'd suspect you'd end up with similar results to mine..... which is a fair old wedge more than you currently have.
You know it makes sense Rodders.... and that's coming from someone who has been down the full engine route before. Don't fix what aint bust.

I know we dont always see eye to eye shaun but i must admit i do agree with what you say,i was planning to go the 2.1/GT30 Billet route this year but after taking a step back and looking at what i already have,and the costs involved to move to the next level,i am staying right where i am for now.
The car is already more than quick enough on the road dealing with anything and everything it has come across so far,if i get bored i may fit the jdm big port spec c heads i have just bought,but for now it aint broke so i aint fixing it.

I'm going to be honest..... my reasoning is probably due to me getting on a bit now more than anything else.
Whilst I've become richer the older I get I've also become tighter! Perhaps they have gone hand in hand then. lol
Immy is still a young whipper snapper so he'll probably go and do it!
