whitestarlet Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Has there been any more development with these ct9 turbo's, is there many members off the site running the at the minute? and has there been many rolling road results Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Enzo Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 hey gerrard, since launched ive sold 7 of these 3rd revision turbos to people, one as far as australia.i think there are only three people ramsay, ady and myslef that have the turbo on the actual forumonce i get some larger injectors il be going in for a power run(im hoping for anywhere over 220+bhp)i do know that ady has maps of his at a bar on a rrfpr but he was suffereing from a boost leak on the day i must say its a savage turbo and im looking forward to what power mine will make on a power run which will be within the next month Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bourkey Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Im very interested in one of these and have been for a couple of weeks now. Im thinking of getting on when my new engine has done a couple of thousand miles. Summer time hopefully. What things do you HAVE to have to run it. I will already have a front mount and HKS dump valve and probably a decat and mani aswell.How do they change the car and what sort of power increase would they give on my setup.CheersBourkey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Enzo Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 ok to run it you need to front mount the filter, you can use any univeral filter and a 55mm silicon bend, like samco to do this.you will obviusly need an uprated actuater and also a crankcase breatheri migth attend a rolling road this wknd at gmc motorsport and get a base figure at 12psi so people know what gains to expect without tuching the fualing.on your setup the difference between standard and hybrid in turms of power delivery would be enough to warrent the turbo alone. ul find that the tiny standard ct9 runs out of puff at the high end of the revrange when you get your conversion finnished..

Bourkey Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Hmmmmm sounds pretty dam good to me.It's on my to buy list now as i planned to leave it stock for a good while but i have decided to up the power on the engine slowly but surely. Not really got a figure im aiming for i just want more. Cheers for your help.Bourkey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
whitestarlet Posted February 21, 2008 Author Share Posted February 21, 2008 Geo i have a G spec that i had bought of Kitaro. i presum its the same? at the RR day we had i got 201bhp at the flywheel. but the torqure was quite low down but i think that was due to the intake side that i had. once i get it sorted out i ll try and run again and see wat we get. so far i am happy with it. it pulls well.

Guest Enzo Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 no they are not the difference between the the g spec and gt spec hybrid is the compressor wheel which is a t25 in the g spec and a gt17 compressor wheel on the gt spec.difference is hereat what boost did you make your 201 bhp 15psi??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
whitestarlet Posted February 21, 2008 Author Share Posted February 21, 2008 Yeah Geo about 15psi. though at the minute it was only with mesh on the intake of the turbo which should explain the lower torque figure Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Enzo Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 that sounds about right, im hoping to get 220 at 18psi Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Johnny-C Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 how would this compare to the td04 at a bar?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Enzo Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 at 1 bar on this hybrid dependant on setup you could get anything from 190-210. obviusly capable of more.correct me if im wrong but ive seen power ranging from 200-230 for a tdo4 at 1 barthe difference with the hybrid though is the way in which the power is created, more linear compared to the laggier td04 where power is more likely to come in with a bang .

ToddiGlanzaV Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Geo my friend you have got me seriously considering one of these bad boys.Would want a front mount first, ill keep you posted tho. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

monka Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 whats the maximim boost these things can hold, constant and quick bursts, i mean, whats highest setting could have it on a track or fast road where it would be full throttle for a while, and what would it take as full boost for a drag run?

monka Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 any one ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Enzo Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 hey sorry for the delay monka, these turbos are warrented to 1.2bar, which is aproaching the limits of what standard engine internals can cope with.obviusly the turbo could handle abit more boost then that but thats what the warrenty is set to. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
monka Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 kk, cus i was going to forge my engine as it needs a rebuild, but dont fancy the td04 route, so maximum boost of 1.2 aint a bother, and warrenty aside, possible to be safe upto 1.4-1.5 bar? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Enzo Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 We recommend 1.2 bar, obviously with the right tune and the right amount of cooling you can run more but the warranty is set for 1.2 bar Quote Link to post Share on other sites
whitestarlet Posted March 14, 2008 Author Share Posted March 14, 2008 which Turbo are you running Enzo? and what boost? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Enzo Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 hey sorry i missed this gerrard im running the gt-spec version, ive not cranked it past 9psi yet, im aiming to get some dyno graphs at 12 and 18psi but not too sure when i can get time to do that, Quote Link to post Share on other sites

whitestarlet Posted March 26, 2008 Author Share Posted March 26, 2008 sound interesting geo. i ve 2 results no for running about 15psi. both vary because of the intake!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Callan Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 sound interesting geo. i ve 2 results no for running about 15psi. both vary because of the intake!!dudemesh FTW.....why do these mental power jap gts have no filters:D i havent a filter and it made my gt come alive!....a hybrid with no filter must be mental,mesh FTW Quote Link to post Share on other sites
carter Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 hi there i loking at one of the ct20 but some one on here told me so stay away from them tong turbo as they know for blowing up out of the blue. can any one put any light on this for me. as i looking at the ct20 but thinking of the ct12 now as i was told that. running all the mods need for a ct12 or ct20. still on standard turbo. got it mapped lasted week running 185bhp at the fly at 1 bar. got the dyno graph as well.dudemesh FTW.....why do these mental power jap gts have no filters:D i havent a filter and it made my gt come alive!....a hybrid with no filter must be mental,mesh FTW Quote Link to post Share on other sites
