sr20dett

[dl240sx]

I was wondering if anyone knew about the sr20dett? if its a good buy and were would you find one?Thanks,Dustin

[BuudWeizErr]

Twin Turbo SR's are custom made.



EDIT: Please note that these are RHD Silvia/180SX's.

I do love the look of that first motor. I wonder if a TT would even be possible on LHD? mani would be supercustom, big money.

[SRdS14]

anything is possible if you have the money...

wanna put a 2jz in a ford festiva?? it can be done...

[Cyberkreig]

nice reply smartass =-). Let me ask the question differently. I wonder how difficult it would be to do sequential turbos on a LHD sr20.

[SRdS14]

it shouldn't be too hard i wouldn't think (if u knew what u were doing)...twin turboing an sr20 is pointless i would think...

[SmithSR]

if O.J. can buy his way out of the gas chamber....

[Cyberkreig]

Probably is pointless. A good quality hybrid would probably give the same quick spool and top end power. But it would still be pimp if your engine bay looked like that first image =)

[christopher]

I would think that you would have a quicker spool with two small turbos than with a hybrid even. I don't think you would generate the HP of some of them though. I agree, it sure looks amazing.

[Benfica77]

wow that first pic looks niceee

[GoTbOOsT]

::droooooool:: aaa the first image makes ma mouth salivate... do you know how much HP you can achiece with going TT?

[SigmaNIN]

its pointless to go tt for a 2,0 engine cuz spool up wouldnt be that much faster that a t28 would be and it would cost made cash for custom work

[ImportIntelligence]

The biggest thing with the TT Supras and the TT 300zx is people doing single turbo conversions anyhow. If they are making 900+hp with thse conversions why would you want to do a TT setup? The factory cars came out with twin turbos so the power increase from a turbocharged car was not as a punch at a certain rpm and more power all over the band.

BTW, the heat from dual turbo's probabaly fries the paint right off the hood.

[Dori Dori]

Yeah, but what about the twin turbo 1200+hp cars?

People do single turbo conversions b/c it's cheaper and easier...not 'better'.

[nick]

go single and use a shot to spool it

[GraySilvia]

wonder if you could put two Aerochargers on an SR?!?

[themadscientist]

there are a slew of turbos that can support 1000hp by themselves. There is no need to go twin on the SR. People say "it would respond better with two small turbos", I doubt that. You have just taken a two liter engine and turned it into two one liter engines. Before you say "what about sequential" it would be a piping nightmare and any responsiveness gain you hope to pickup by having a smaller #1 turbo would be negated by the stainless steel spagetti and valves etc. The only advantage of twin is shock value.

[GraySilvia]

that's why i'm saying aerochargers...variable area turbine nozzles....damn near insta-spool. Reason they aren't in everyday use is because they can only make them very small right now. The technology just hasn't advanced far enough to make huge turbos with the technology. Did i mention they have a sealed oiling system and aren't water cooled?? I think you could make a dynamite TT setup with them because they are designed for small displacement engines and if you TT'd an SR, you'd be putting the aerocharger on a 1000cc engine, which is about right.

[themadscientist]

I just can't get on the twin turbo bandwagon. You double all the possibilities for trouble for little or no gain. The top ranked SRs are not limited by hp or response, they are held back by traction. I would spend more time addressing hooking the car up and not needlessly exotic twin turbo setups. If you simply must have a twin for the oos and ahhs I can understand that but the argument for response is weak.

[GraySilvia]

well, that's why the aerochargers would be fun (i'm not saying they are the best setup, just the only way i'd go for a TT SR). The aerochargers are internally lubricated, and don't need water lines...the hard part is plumbing the intake piping and making exhaust manifolds...that's it! sounds like fun to me anyway But alas, the big single turbo is probably gonna be the winner in terms of ultimate power potential and the thing to do if money IS an object.

[themadscientist]

Oh don't get me wrong, doing it just cuz you want to is cool, I have no problem with that. Half the stuff I do is just because it amuses me. If I had the money I would bolt an HKS T51R SPL on my CA18. It would barely spin but dam! you just have to see something like that. :pface

[GraySilvia]

I like the way you think :ylsuper

[themadscientist]

That's not what the shrink said but he won't be saying much anymore, :evilhaha Muhahahahaha!

[Gregariousgreg]

I'd say goin' tt is probably only good idea if you are showing the car. Seems like more of a head turner gimmick then a performance part. Don't get me wrong, you'd screem with tt but like everyone else has been saying, why spend the extra money? But man... those things are pretty.

[SlideWays S14]

i think its pointless to go TT jsut will be causing more heat which will result in detonation eventualy, and your engine bay will be more complicated

[GraySilvia]

How will going TT create more heat??!?!! It comes down to an intercooler and compressor efficiency as to whether or not it will create and more heat than a comparable single turbo setup

[themadscientist]

I doubt it would generate more heat, Two turbos would not have to work as hard as one to generate the same power so it could possibly run cooler.

[curbsurfer]

with 2 turbos, you have to spin 2 shafts and oil 2 turbos.single turbo would be more efficient in this case.

if you needed super high hp (1300+)then twins would be more efficient due to the amount of air flow needed to sustain such high hp.

[GraySilvia]

well, as far as a normal, street driven twin setup, that's why i was saying the aerocharger would be ideal because they have a self-contained oiling system and aren't water cooled...oh, the simplicity...plus, being able to say "i can't go out tonight, i have to change the oil in my TURBOS" is just too cool!
