I have seen some nice results with the old sc46 on a 2.0 so im thinking the new billett one might work pretty well.
But if you could get say 430hp with the sc40 billet + meths that would be pretty handy as well.

without meths for the time being on a fully forged 2.0ltr build classic with v5 sti heads and every supporting mod and 2.5mls nf per ltr, whether it be the sc46 billet or the sc40 billet now has me guessing till more tests are done i guess .

looking into getting a turbo that can produce a true 400/400 or as close to that as possible on our fantastic irish fuel without meths for the time being on a fully forged 2.0ltr build classic with v5 sti heads and every supporting mod and 2.5mls nf per ltr, whether it be the sc46 billet or the sc40 billet now has me guessing till more tests are done i guess .

we must not lose sight of the fact that the SC36 billet and the SC40 billet are budget turbo's at £750.00 and £895.00, these are sleeve bearing units as explained earlier in this thread.
Their bigger brother, the SC46 billet has the advantage of a roller bearing core, hence the price difference.
Quite how the SC40 will perform we dont yet know, however if the SC36 results are anything to go by it should be a winner
Testing very soon.
Cheers

its the single scroll SC46 Billet that is waiting testing, the twin scroll was tested weeks ago as you correctly state.
Although I do know that an SC46 Billet has been tested by another specialist and the results were stunning, no dyno figures though but it ticked all the right box's, customer loves it

Hi,
update on the SC40 Billet, not good I am afraid,
This one didnt work very well, 378 BHP on a 2.0 ltr STI 8 with a syvecs, fmic, injectors and inlet pipe.
Back to the drawing board, time for a change of comp wheel.
Printouts before and after to follow.
cheers

Hi All
Just like to say a massive thankyou to Kev .... and all the guys at the scoobyclinic its my car that they are testing the sc40 billet on....
Can you imagine working so bloody hard on a car and then to not get what you expected ... no matter how much effort you had put in???
You guys are doing a great job in bringing the scooby world these new turbos and i for one really appricate your efforts.
Big thumbs up guys.

Hi,
graphs as promised
As a test we decided to run the car before work commenced which is shown in the red traces running the stock VF35, blue traces are the SC 40 Billet and other mods previously mentioned.
As you can see there are some nice gains, BHP has gone from 283 to 373.9 BHP, torque has shot up from 290 ftlbs to 350 ftlbs.
Thats 90 BHP and 60ftlbs, both not to be sniffed at but not as good as we wanted, so as I say back to the drawing board
Cheers
Kev

Honesty's the best policy, and what an honest sales pitch
Definately getting my vote when a bigger turbo is on the cards
I'm sure the revised SC40 billet will do you proud, keep up the good work

This just underlines the passion SC have for their business. They themsleves desperately WANT the results... rather than just glossing over facts and flogging product via marketing techniques alone.
This is so refreshing - really endears one to the company...

Hi,
Already have an updated Billet wheel for the SC40 on its way, lets hope it works this time,
This weekend we entered our "Pink car" in time attack at Oulton park, not only as a bit of fun but to test our new gearkit & billet GT30, in real race conditions.
Last time it went out to do drag runs at Santa Pod, 0 to 60 in 2.6 seconds, 18 launches with launch control, testing the gearbox and turbo under those conditions, a wash, a map tweak and a geometry set up then off to Time attack
We knocked 1.7 seconds off our pevious lap times from 2 years ago when we were running a GT35 R, the smaller GT30 Billet, running less boost showing it works well, gearbox was superb, no signs of snicking syncro's.
A 2nd place was achieved, beaten by just 0.4 of a second to a skyline.
A successful day for both Billet turbo's and the new SC gearkits, not forgetting all the efforts put in by the team and some superb driving from Kevin Horsely.
Cheers

Hi,
yes, 4th season with wins in Time attack, Scooby sprint, Scooby shootout, dozens of track events and santa pod drag runs, all without a spanner on them
Other point we need to mention is they are the basic kit, not the DT2 full race stuff
Its a winning combination, SC Billet turbo, the new SC gearkit, Hot bits and the recently renamed solaris ecu.
Cheers

To be that close to a car running a GT42 and over 800whp shows you don't need a monster turbo to be competitive The turbo behaved brilliantly on track, no lag and really smooth power delivery, just what you need on track!
