Have/ are you running any of these clive??

This is what I'm trying to work out the housing sizes. So I can find a scrap or cheep turbo for mockup. Clearance checks etc. Physical size and the number. All the info above is great. Some hard to understand. We'll at the moment. I get the basics but say gt2860r OK it's then the numbers (ar) where I'm getting lost. .60 .70 .80 hot side cold side Like I was told by a turbo builder. Holset he221w good for 280bhp but then there is 5,6,7cm etc sizes I'll keep watching. And try grasp it.

Appreciate your input. And I have watched loads about turbos etc. I'll check out the one above.

Td04/5 are 3 bolt flange correct...or can any turbo have any flange? I don't want to sound thick or anything. Just the post are easyier to understand. On hear maybe. Than reading things online

So (yes I've had a beer) my drag bike uses an ihi rhf5 turbo. Intercooler on race fuel pulls 20psi of boost at a claimed approx 320 bhp. Goes full boost in 4th. Engine is stock gsxr1100 busa pistons. Stock everything else apart from clutch as that I'm aware of. The motor I have in my build is a higher spec. (Not built by me) should be able to make good numbers. But as its for the road (ish) Your saying a td05 20t (not looked into that yet) would get me in the high 200's able to turn it down (boost wise) for the road. Lots if other options I guess. Just trying to work things out. Thanks for your input so far

More confused now. I would rather not go down the turbo kit route. But be able to work things out myself. And source parts etc separately etc. I would just like to know what route to take with the turbo etc.

And yes some of you know I run pyro drag bike. But I did not build this. Turbo stuff is all new to me

So a garrett with an ar 50 cold side and ar63 hot for example

As much as I can. The occasional strip action. But will mainly be a road bike. But it's always nice to have it there if you want it. If that makes sense

Forgot to say it's also all the numbers of hot and cold side that baffle me. Seen holset, garret, pression turbos etc. Holset He221w as a recmendation but the there is 6,7,8 inch housings Garret gt2860 Just really confused lol don't take alot mind you!!

Hi all. My build is in the project section. I'm getting a little confused with all these different makes/types of turbos. And all the numbers. If someone could point me in the right direction would be great. I have a loan of a turbo. But the flange is not quite right. Easy enough to sort. The manifold I have is of t3 type Motor spec b12 base Ported head, adjustable cam sprockets, busa rods/pistons, base spacer, knifedged crank, lock up etc etc. Looking to find either a knackered turbo or cheep as. To check clearances etc. And if the manifold I have will work. All help appreciated

Love this bike

This going to be good!! Like the others. CALLING OSS SNAILS

Oh get on.

Haha good point. Would be a nice add to the section though

Why is there not an awesome turbo bike sticky. Like the air oil and water sections. Be a good place to go for inspiration Just a thought

@clivegtofair play to her. Looks a little like a prostock ive been running with. Guy called tony davidge

@clivegtoWho's is the efe drag bike??? Love your builds by they way

I don't want to high jack the thread. I may not have seen a build thread of @baldrickand the intentions of the build. i have a motor. With above crank (knife edged) busa rods and pistons. Ported head. Adj cam sprockets etc. For a turbo build. ( shall update tomorrow) curious about things

Cut through the air oil mix?? Would the crank loose any strength by being knifed?? Sorry for a sort of high jack on the post @baldrick

Way above my knowledge!! @dupersuncis that why you can get a knife edged crank???

What is a skulled head???
