@@throttlebuddies6356 are you familiar with rusEFI? I heard it is like Speeduino but a few levels up. It works with a knock sensor and electronic throttle body and they almost have it work with GDI.

Ill see but most things on this series you will be able to use for tusefi and megasquirt also as this is more like a thneretudio guide you could say :)

MaXpeedingRods just came out with ball bearing turbos! They are essentially just a Garrett GT series design, but with some nice added features. They have the forged billet compressor wheel, a lighter and allegedly higher quality compressor housing, a stainless turbine housing with V-band connections, an upgraded alloy turbine wheel, and allegedly upgraded piston rings. I did a tear down and I was fairly impressed. They are a bit over $600, so pricey for a budget option, but you can also get a 10% off discount anytime which makes them slightly more attractive. I agree with you that it is worth buying MXR over exactly comparable products for the support from the company, which at least does exist! I also think their billet wheels in general actually do have different geometry from the cast Wheels. While the blades have generally the same profile, the nose and overall profile of the center section is much thinner, allowing for a lot more airflow. I do think Pulsar is a generally attractive option, and this brings MXR up closer to their level. I will say as soon as you start getting closer to $1,000 a Borg Warner starts making a lot more sense, even if it's journal bearing. If you get closer to $2,000-3,000 the Borg Warner EFR series are the best period, though limited in max size. Still, with a coupon, hard to argue with a $100 turbo from MXR! Great video. :)

i mean for 600-800 bucks depending where you are located you can also buy a pulsar turbo wich are known to work really well but well se maybe i will get one at some point.

@@throttlebuddies6356 Yeah that's the dilemma! So far they have a GT2871, GT3071, and GT3076. I'm sure they'll do a GT3582 eventually. They end up coming in just under the typical Pulsar price with arguably comparable features, but it would be impossible for me to say one is better since so far I have experience with neither. About to test my GT3071, but not exactly torture test it. Wish I had a dyno I'd love to compare them back to back.

Issue is also no options for echausg housings. Kind of a dealbreaker in my opinion and the gt28 is just a journal bearing not even with a 360 degree thrust bearing and still is 600 bucks

@@throttlebuddies6356 Agreed that the lack of turbine housing options limits the applications. Unless you meant something else. The new GT28 is a ball bearing turbo. You have to go to the Sport Turbo category and not the "For Sport Universal Turbo" section. It's there for $591 before coupon and lists all the same benefits as the two new GT30 ball bearing turbos, just without the V-band exhaust inlet and outlet. I'd have to have one in hand to verify all the claims, but no reason to doubt. Is it worth it for a GT28? Probably not. It's a very strange compressor trim they chose as well. Even smaller than Garrett's smallest 48 trim. Really meant for a smaller engine pushing a lot of boost. I'll def be trying to test one out down the road.

Great informative video, im debating on getting the maxpeedingrods 73 trim turbo but I messaged a selling and they said it can only handle 14.5 psi, im hoping for closer to 19 psi maybe 20, do you have any experience with their 73 trim?

@throttlebuddies6356

Ай бұрын

Well what they are saying on their website and if they actually last are two different things. Ik running a 3582r at 20 psi but that already also has some shaft play after a few hundred kilometers but it also gets a lot of surge so not surprising. Id say you could try it but dont expect too too much at anything above wastegate pressure

What is the biggest compressor blade size turbo you can find from things like this? The max I could find it's something like 70mm compressor. I'm trying to find something like 100mm if you guys know some

Wich ones do you mean exactly? Pulsar offers units up to like 120 or so

What fitting is that on your water pump inlet at 0:50 so that you can run a low mount turbo? It looks OEM!

Right on bro ... and rights now i run the pulsar 4849g (g25-550 copy) , i did have well still ha e but changed out my ptx3071r gen2 dbb , as it was a late spooler lol but still super powerfull and i run mine at 30-35 psi on the street lol ... i personally love pulsar ... i have had bad luck and blown 3 maxpeedingrods turbos, but i have a set there forged rods in my build and they hold great .. so tbh i think i was overspinning the turbos lol and i ha e use there coilovers and out if 2 sets both had bad 1 the rear came leaking fluid and the others the front both snapped the shock in half after like a month each .. but i frive really agressive and they just meant to go low n look the part lol ... but otherwise bro always like to see ya posting cuz we have similar builds lol .. peace and love bro keep it rad stay safe and build on.. l8z famz and keep having fun

Yeah the maxpeedingrods units id only recommend for maximum of like 15 psi or so anything above that i would be looking for an upgrade. As for their coilovers they are good depending on the car but sometimes seem to be leaking quite quickly soooo meh i guess. I havent had any pulsar turbos fail due to defects, only by user error so i highly recommend them.

@@throttlebuddies6356 right ... so my main thing now I thing I struggle with is , exhaust back pressure in the log manifold .. I don't think it like that high boost lol ... I been trying g to find and figure what the best 1.6 manifold would be , without compromise durability (cuz we know the log is basically indestructible lol) , I would love a aretec lol but I don't think they make it for 1.6 mazda engines sadly ... have you had any luck with differant manifolds bro? Or do ya have a recommendation.. I need to post a update vid on it so when I do try to figure stuff out I have a reference lol 😂 cuz I think my last post was over a year ago lol.. anyways hope to hear back from ya some more bro and maybe even show off our builds if ya make it to MATG this year .. peace and love bro

@@mastercricket7626 best one is kraken by far. very good layout and works well up to 600 hp. and because it is cast its very durable. you will gain horsepower by just lowering backpressure a bunch and also stress your engine wayyyyy less. The next option would just be a tubular manifold out of a high quality stainless steel so that it doesnt crack!
