Had a nice result friday.
Billet 30 on Cj's 2.35 on 16% meth at 2bar boost 602bhp and 580lb

I have been loaned it to drive this week and will be comparing it closely to my own car which has a gt35 non billet on. Might have to put my hand in my pocket as the car is so responsive with the billet 30 on

Hi,

the GT 30 Billet is a great rotated turbo, doesnt seem to fussy as to what cc engine its on.

With the one Simon has just done that makes 5 cars I know of that are running over 600BHP with one of these turbo's.

Well done fellas.

cheers
Kev

 

Got it, looks liek a great turbo making great power. Someting for the future i think, Cheers

 

....and, apparently, one of them has just come overall runner-up in SSO.

 

Hi,

correct.

Your trophy awaits its collection, well done sir.

cheers

Kev

 

And I thankyou

 

hi kev.i have a forged 2.0 with a billet 20g.what turbo would the engine be able to take safely?

 

Hey. I am running 00 classic with stock internals and uprated gear box.Could you please list what benefits would SC36 billet bring over VF35 and ther TD05s.

Thanks a lot

 

Hi,

depends what block really, i.e. open deck, semi closed or closed deck, the latter of course being the stronger.

We ran a rotated GT30 Billet on a 2.1 built into a 2.0 ltr closed deck block at 623.9 BHP with no problems.

cheers
Kev

 

SC36 IS a fettled 16g, but with 33% lighter billet comp wheel, etc. (still sleeve bearing). So I'd expect it to spool a bit earlier than a 'normal' one.

VF35 has always been a good early spooler, but typically maxes at 330-340. The SC36 is good for 330-360+ on a 2L on V-Power - certainly from what I've gleaned - and with VF35-like spool up, to boot!...


Here's some useful info:-

SC 36 Billet...............£750.00 + VAT (16G billet)

<<< EDIT: I don't want to post again - loving the round figure lol

 

Thanks for an answer......still need to think it over and decide which way i wanna go

 

All comes down to wonga, eh? If wonga no issue, I'd go for a brand-spanking-new SC36...

BTW, is yours a UK or WRX? Or a STi? Which uprated gearbox do you have?


<<< Bugger - there goes that nice 12,000

 

Well i bought VF35 already but i got screwed a bit(got turbo with trashed compressor wheel) and now there is nice VF34 with 3k mils done on sale by company not individual so i am seriously thinking to grab VF34 for around 360 pounds.

I drive Euro Impreza GT 2000 (LHD sucks when i want to upgrade some things like flocked dash board and quick rack).Gear box and dif i just got from G.E.A.R.S. and i hope it wont go kaboom when i show him some stick

 

Yeah, you really should keep the bhp for your model's engine in the 330-340 bracket (and even then expect the motor to die at some point in the future).

The VF34 can be capable of up to 360 (as is the SC36), but both can obviously be mapped to make 330+.

Therefore the logical thing would be to get the cheaper VF34... As long as it's a known good 'un (otherwise the expense of buying two shagged tubby's would be getting on for the price of the SC36, anyhow! ).

 

Hi,

thanks for your input here, just one point, we have never seen 360 BHP on a VF 34, they tend to top out at around the 340 BHP mark which is why we developed the SC36 Billet, to fill the void from 340 to 360 BHP but as any subscribers to this thread are aware the SC36 Billet is a very good all rounder and in some cases produced much more than its 360 BHP rating.

Thanks again for helping out on this thread

cheers
Kev

 

Yeah i know i am choosing betwine something that is cheaper and might be ok and SC one that is a bit more expencive but you get what you pay(i would go straight for SC36 but just spend over 4k on her already,lol)

Tough one

 

Hi,

as they say, " don't spoil the ship for a ha'porth of tar"
or "do it once do it right".

We have had to swap out many turbo's bought 2nd hand or are nasty VF copies, not only is it labour intensive but soul destroying for the customer.

cheers
Kev

 

Sure Kev. That's why I did put the word "...can..." in italics (as, from what I've read, there have been some on here that have allegedly made that).

But I appreciate 340-odd is a more common figure to actually expect, in prob. circa 90% of cases.

 

Gaffer , got any graphs yet of your sc46 billet on a 2.1 stroker ???? Ta Maz

 

If I cant get happy with my GT35R non billet on my daily driver.. there maybe a 6th..

Simon

 

Hi Simon,

we have just had the 33 billet wheel re designed and we are looking for a test mule.

Just a thought as your findings are always welcome.

cheers
Kev

 

Are you expecting the 33 billet to give more power than the 30, but with slightly worse spool? But not as much as the 35 billet, but with better spool?

Suppose that might be obviously....lol

 

Hi,

kind of answered that one your self.

cheers
Kev

 

And thats my one simon just done , on a 2.35 with a .63 housing at 2bar
603bhp & 580ft /lbs

 

Thanks. Fairly sure I want a 30 I think cj has a .62 but happy to test the 33.

I will map it up on the 35 non billet .82 on the dyno, Road mapped it and goes well above 4000rpm but pretty lame under, even with vvt.

Thanks
Simono

 

Hi C.J,

Great result and on a .63 to keep spool early, just shows how well that combination works.

Bet that's an handful on the road.

cheers
Kev

 

Hi Simono, (typo or new name?)

I will willingly fire a new style GT33 Billet down as soon as they arrive, they are with our next shipment due Monday next week along with the re introduced SC42 Billet.

Well done with the results on the GT30 billet.

Cheers
Kev

 

Typo but quite amusing lol

Cool

Anyone mapped a sc46 billet on a 2.1 stroker yet ???
