Liam_D Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 It was sold with receipts from a top JDM parts supplier as a JAM Hi Flow Turbo mateWell they've got it wrong. If that was put on a car and made more power than a standard ct9 I would be amazed! Maybe it's been rebuilt at some point and the wrong compressor wheel is in there. And that most defiantly isn't the correct one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Browner Posted July 9, 2013 Author Share Posted July 9, 2013 It definitely gave more power than a stock ct9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 The inducer looks very similar to a stock ct9, but it just doesn't fit the housing.As someone said above I believe TD did have a Jam turbo, might be worth asking for pics? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liam_D Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 It definitely gave more power than a stock ct9Got any proof will be interesting to see? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Browner Posted July 10, 2013 Author Share Posted July 10, 2013 Yeah well it's off the car at the moment but might stick it on one of my own and do a dyno run with it on and then with a standard one at same boost levels and compare Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fordie_glanzaV Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Browner i know this is delayed but did u ever get outcome of the jam ct9I purchased 1 6months ago of a very reputable company on here.. Had i a high flow before and couldnt tell no difference in the two units but my god could tell mid range power difference just from driving it and setting up the avcr for it. Still havent had it dyno'd yet to see true outcome.. I couldnt find any info on a jam ct9 thow :/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Browner Posted November 3, 2013 Author Share Posted November 3, 2013 (edited) Not a whole lot mate I have it on one of my own cars now and the power is excellent from it. Seems very hard to get any info on them and too many lads saying its not this and it's not that without actually seeing the turbo or showing pics of a supposedly 'genuine' JAM turbo. Does yours look the exact same as the one in my pics? Edited November 3, 2013 by Browner Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fordie_glanzaV Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Well theres some pics pal. My old unit is the 1 on the right.Cannot find any info on them at all. All i know is that its an improvement from the older unit.Wanna go tdo4 really so just fishing around for info for when i sell this setup.May contact mike @ td to see if he can inform me as thats where it cam from.

keirz Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 (edited) Its clear from the pics its not the right compressor wheel for the housing.I don't know what parts jam used, but I don't need to know to tell its the wrong compressor! As a turbo engineer you tend to know these things lol Edited November 3, 2013 by keirz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
micky boy Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Conor that turbo is deffo 100% a stock ct9A unit Also fordie both them turbos are stock ct9B units! The compressor wheels are stock ct9b wheels Quote Link to post Share on other sites

fordie_glanzaV Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Like i said Just going from what i got told from mike @ td.New runs alot better than old 1. What to get it dyno'd to compare them then. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah i think the one you've got on your car might be newer but theres no diffrance between the 2 compressor wheels what so ever Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fordie_glanzaV Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Ok cheers mate. Im happy with previous turbos output. And new 1 is noticably better. I just wanted some kinda info on it as it was sold to me as a jam high flow. And looking to sell setup in near future so any more info woulda been helpfull.Ill just get new dyno print and let that answer it. Lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

keirz Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 (edited) On yours buddy. Its difficult to tell sizes and stuff from the pictures but in my opinion yours does look to be different from stock.With browners one, Im not saying its not a hybrid, it could well be a jam hybrid, but somewhere down the line its been rebuilt and has too small a compressor wheel in it. The gaps between the inducer tips and the cover are huge. It will be less efficient than if it had the correct clearances. Edited November 4, 2013 by keirz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fordie_glanzaV Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Well just had a reply from mike. Informed me that the inlet is larger than a oe unit. And been known to be good for 1.3barHe also seems to think the jam units were listed in old hyper revs magazine.. Cheers for your input to mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
micky boy Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Keirz i know you have rebuilt turbos more then likey since ive been in nappy's lol But i am 100% sure that Browner's and fordie's ct9 turbos arnt hybrids! I have about 4 ct9a's and 2 ct9B's sat in my garage along with god knows how many spare turbin shafts and compressor wheels! so i have become aware of whats what with the ct9's as thats all ive realy ever rebuilt lol.. Ill get some pics up soon as my new camera comes in the post Quote Link to post Share on other sites
keirz Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 I know you have a dabbled mate, how many ct9 c,d,e,f's have you come into contact with, how many ct12 a,b,c,d etc? They pretty much all share the same style and design but vary very slightly in size. Size differences in The exducer and base size which wouldn't be visible until the turbo is stripped. As I say its very difficult to say what parts are used when there is sometimes a mm difference here and there.Some hybrids are extreme, some are subtle. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
