Wow this is pretty neat stuff. Curious though, as I haven't seen it throughout the entire thread, but whats the max boost you see with this turbo?

And make sure to get vids of the dyno!

I'm running 23psi right and it has tons more room to go.

Alright a little update.

Just figured out a better way to mechanically control the vanes.

This setup allows the spring pressure to be adjusted and how far the vanes close.
The before setup the vanes opened way to fast and the turbo lagged real bad.

But whats cool the way this turbo is setup is the vanes will open with just exhuast pressure by themselves.
Now with this setup the turbo spools twice as fast as before.
I should have some datalogs soon of the turbo spool up time as soon as I can get out on the highway to to do pulls because I'm doing almost 60mph before I shift into second gear and it gets their really fast.

Also should be going to the dyno soon.

Also when I had the turbo off I had it apart and absolutly no carbon buildup so it seems this turbo will hold up extremely well on a gasoline engine. This is my other HE351ve I bought and paid 95 bucks for =)

How much boost are you seeing in first gear?!

I believe he was implying that he needs money to get his car dyno'd, lol...

In for a bit of explanation on how your boost is throughout the gears and rpm range

I'll get around to doing some datalogs at sometime.

Good work. It's doing the same thing as my Quick Spool valve. Mine opens at 15psi via a hobbs switch rigged to the mechanical actuator. I too have wanted to find a way to have mine stay open at cruise and build boost on command and open gradually over a set of choosable conditions. Still, the difference in spool on my GT35r is huge, and makes street driving way more fun. (15psi by 3300rpm on a .84 T4 turbine)
