@@Gandalf721 only thing that supercharging has over a turbo in my view is the linearity of it, like you said a turbo is just more efficient and capable of more power when it comes down to it. Sound and other things will just be personal choice.
Compressor wheel (both turbo & supercharger) in that STi application probably requires around 50hp to physically compress the amount of air. Would you rather make 480hp and get 480hp or make 480hp but only get 430hp because the supercharger cost 50hp to spin? Turbos can make tons of torque if they’re setup to spool at low rpm. Most people prefer 350lbft torque at 5,500 or 6,500 vs 350tq at 2,500 or 3,500 therefore people choose turbos that are “too big” vs “too small”. Ideally you’d pick a turbo that matches the cams and cam timing of the engine. Centrifugal superchargers are linear-increasing. That’s cool if you want to limit torque on road course. But then again torque linear-decreasing as rpm’s increase is a form of natural traction control. So maybe linear-increasing isn’t always the best. But if you have aero that increases your traction with increased speed maybe linear-increasing torque of centrifugal supercharger is the best ;) Screw/roots superchargers are great because they can make boost 3psi of boost effectively where most aftermarket turbos are designed for 8psi or more of boost. In some applications you don’t really need a lot of psi. If you have 650hp NA v8 engine putting 3psi of boost would require running huge turbos at ultra low boost or swapping cam to something that makes 450hp and running 8psi. But screw blower can add the 3psi without having to change the hold engine setup to reach target hp & tq. Thats why people will get a Camaro put cam and long tube headers to gain 100hp. If they go turbo it would require undoing everything. Supercharger can be bolted on to those existing mods and run at low boost and only 775hp so you don’t blowup the motor and transmission but still faster than your neighbor Bob. Nothing is always better.
I think the downsides of a turbo application only really become a counterpoint to the N/A-like character of a supercharger when you try to make one engine do everything. Interesting to me, just from personal experience, is how the powerband and torque curve of my daily (2.0L 4cyl N/A), is almost identical in shape to my "project" (2.5L V6 TT). Linear through the midrange, with a slight plateau up the top, and then a bit of a drop before redline.
@@R03333 There are some pretty crazy twin screw superchargers out there. A 1200 HP ZR1 and a 1200 HP Supra of the same weight will NOT have the same speed or quality of power deliver. It's very different around that level.
You can already see the results. The difference between the G25 vs the G30 is the housing and turbine wheel size. They went from a G25-660 to a G30-660. G25 has the smaller turbine of the two but the same or similar compressor size. If you increase the turbine size you're turning the G25 into the G30 or higher. You can look at the info directly on Garrett's site.
rotor13 yeah but the aspect ratio AR comes in different options for 25 and 30 housings. You can see flow charts for the various ARs on the same turbine wheels. So like, comparing a high AR g25 turbine to a low AR g30 I think is what he was talking about
When you go the the 2.5L STI motor (EJ207), you have less piston wall clearance, which means if you are trying to go for 500WHP , you will want to upgrade to a fully closed-deck block. 2.0L motors are more reliable since have way more metal in the block(less flex).
If there is anything these cars needs are hoods that let the engine breathe. So much heat producing performance it's no wonder these cars don't blow up from heat exhaustion.
They're called safety wire pliers. Been doing aircraft maintenance for almost 12 years now and its a daily task for me. I still prefer to do it by hand though.
Also important to keep in mind the lag difference might look exaggerated on the dunk compared to what part throttle and transient response feels like on the road. I’d love to see a little video of you driving it around on the street and explaining what the difference feels like in more normal use conditions.
Great Vid guys as always, Would be cool to see the results playing w slightly smaller A/R and see if you get the spool back but still have the top end from the larger turbine wheel
Go 2.5L and 30 series with small turbine housing! I made 509wtq at around 4200rpm. Died a smidge towards redline but the drive ability mid range was well worth it. My one video is dyno evidence lol
They are more efficient but seems like they’re also simply putting “bigger” wheels in the smaller frames. I’m not complaining nothing wrong with smaller footprint. Just an observation.
@@tomjones5860 The G30 series use the same size compressor wheels as the GTX range. 67, 71 and 76 mm for 660, 770 and 990 respectively. All the gains are in the designs of the wheels not compressor size
The video’s topic is bring back memories. Back in the day I used “clipped” turbine wheels in race cars. Moving up to a larger turbo to increase turbine flow also increases mass (G25 to G30). By clipping the small (G25) turbine it’s actually decreasing mass. So you have less weight to spool and more flow. You get both. Haha. It’s really only good for race cars. And people say it ruins turbine efficiency but who cares the wastegate is open which ruins the systems efficiency anyway. Mass was a big deal back then. We tried ceramic and titanium turbine wheels. We even tried plastic compressor wheels to reduce weight.
The amount of smoke coming out the exhaust makes me PANIC for you! Id be crying if that was my STI. I make sure everytime i start mine, i get out and watch the exhaust for smoke. lol
PT those pliers you were using are Safety wire pliers, we use those on almost every single bolt on our weapons systems and aircraft bolts, you want the entire wire to be twisted in between each point to maximize strength! You shouldn't shoot me a message and I'll send you some photos!
BUT, overall, the BMW is much easier to work on by far. I work on both. I cringe when a subie rolls in, and smile when a Bimmer rolls in. Easiest modern cars on the planet to work on, provided you have ISTA software
It's not about the amount of hp on pump gas, being the problem, but it rather lies in how much boost and timing the fuel can take. With the bigger turbine wheel, apart from scavanging the engine, reducing backpressure and increasing its V.E, which does allow for more timing, it also allows for more air to get into the engine with less boost, which in turns means less boost but same or more power. Of course you can run the same amount of boost as with a smaller turbo and make even more power. Also the larger turbine can drive harder the compressor wheel allowing it to reach its full potential, as it does not reach its choke point before the compressor wheel maximizes its flow.
That's lockwire pliers. We use it in aviation and there's certain twists per inch. But for this application, i don't think its necessary to follow strictly.
I would have liked to see the difference the bigger turbine wheel alone did using a .91 AR housing on the G30, changing two variables at the same time is not great.
Nice video, great comparison. I'm doing a rotated kit with a PTE 5862, granted it's on a 2.5 but it was nice to see what your setup did. I'll be adding Meth because British Columbia fuel. 👍
Why is that powerband so bad? Under the curve is gross below 5k. That turbo is very efficient and you should be able to put way more power down at lower RPM especially with a built motor and AWD. That car can not be any fun to DD making 140whp at 4400 RPM :-(
I agree this car should make 400 wheel torque at 4k rpm minimum but if he has stock heads. That’s the restriction we are all seeing. I have ported heads big bore pistons and spool this turbo at 3400 rpm in 4th with a 4:44 trans 4 o wheel torque at 4 k rpm and stays pretty flat to redline where it dips off and hp stays pregressive as well
Very nice results,these g series garret turbo are the ones to have right now, if i had the cash i would swap out my hybrid tte420 on my 2.0 tfsi (VAG) for that g25 since it's my daily.
im very excited to see what i can get out of my pulsar g30-660 on a 7mgte. I made 539whp (mustang dyno) with a modified ct26 turbine housing. i think it's around a .49ar... im ditching the bolt on stuff and swapping to a .92ar. hopefully, it'll break 600whp
@dennisrobinson8008 the response is basically the same. maybe ever so slightly more lag, but it's borderline unnoticeable. i need to get it back on another dyno. it picked up a good chunk of power, but the dyno wasn't loading right and basically "made" the same power. couldn't get it to make over 26psi. left the dyno, and on the street, it makes 31psi with ease. butt dyno says around 600whp
That was my thought as well. They were already at a .91 which is probably too big for a 2.1 liter at these CFM levels. Going to a 1.01 seemed unnecessary. Also, Garrett... when are you going to offer these new G series in twin scroll turbine housings?
Or keep G25, advance cam timing, turn up the boost in midrange, tapper boost back down at top end. I bet they couldn’t spooled 800rpm earlier and gained 70-80tq from 4,800 to 6,200. Instead of touching 400hp for 200rpm; 390-400hp from 4,800-6,800. Or do everything above, keeep G25 swap bigger housing, 390-420hp from 5,300-7,200 G30’s 400-485hp from 5,900-7,200 is probably faster if you’re in perfect gear all the time. But who changes gear ratios to suit their track? I really like these guys so I hope the STi’s ratios work with their track and they can have fun without dropping out of boost all the time. Anyway it’s fun topic.
Complete noob but swapping my stock 2020 sti turbo for a garret 30/71 gtx. My tuner says amazing idea what's your opinion?? As I said I am very new to turbos
I would consider trying a .83 A/R Turbine, introducing that much lag doesn't seem too ideal. Also, can you comment on the cam profile? 900RPMS of lag. Is not ideal or maybe produce RPM Shift Map graph with boost pressure/Power as the power under curve is more important than peak power. IE Boost in 1st gear, 2nd Gear, 3rd gear and etc. Making 20less HP but gaining back 500-600RPMS would be a better balance. Keep up the videos :-)
STI is a monster and perfect amount of power for a car. Smoking is a little concerning but STi's always scare me and never think of them as reliable. Are they??
G30-660 with the 1.0 ar is a bad choice. At least for this kind of engine. Id still use this combo but on a s52 for example. G30 on a 4 cylinder should use the .82 a/r turbine housing...Id MAYBE use the 1.0 housing on 2.4 evo thats racegas tuned and with g30-770 not 660...Also unless you are hillclimbing the bestway to reduce backpressure is from bigger turbine wheel not turbine housing.
I still think the Garrett GTX2867R GEN II would have been a better option. But thats a more street application not track like you blokes. Great vid once again and awesome info. Cheers dudes.
This is what I have on my Lotus. Still trying to decide on the G25 660 or G30 660 with small housing. I have maxed out the gtx2867r at 410whp on E85. I want to get to 500whp
GC build? Yes, please!
Maaaaaaaannnnn I’m also waiting for it
GC build needs to happen! Please and thanks 🙂
Dave always sneaking in those jabs 😂 “Pete’s Protegevo” 😂
I’m glad you showed the loss of boost at lower rpm. It’s important to know there is a trade off for the extra power.
Discovering it's hard to have your cake and eat it too with turbo cars. The street vs track divide seems to become more prominent.

Modified magazine, March 2014 Page 50 has this car I think.
Wouldn't you guys need the power more in the middle or lower in the rev range for a circuit track, great driving DP during the face off at the track.
0.8 turbine housing would have been interesting to see on this size engine. 1.01 seems too big.
Too big a housing generally trades very little extra power for a whole lot more lag in my experience.
That was my thought as well. They were already at a .91 which is probably too big for a 2.1 liter at these CFM levels. Going to a 1.01 seemed unnecessary. Also, Garrett... when are you going to offer these new G series in twin scroll turbine housings?
Or keep G25, advance cam timing, turn up the boost in midrange, tapper boost back down at top end. I bet they couldn’t spooled 800rpm earlier and gained 70-80tq from 4,800 to 6,200. Instead of touching 400hp for 200rpm; 390-400hp from 4,800-6,800.
Or do everything above, keeep G25 swap bigger housing, 390-420hp from 5,300-7,200
G30’s 400-485hp from 5,900-7,200 is probably faster if you’re in perfect gear all the time. But who changes gear ratios to suit their track?
I really like these guys so I hope the STi’s ratios work with their track and they can have fun without dropping out of boost all the time.
Anyway it’s fun topic.

If you want a 2.5 build you'll need to ether sleeve the block or "concrete" it. Unless you like yearly block swaps due to cracked cylinder walls.
Just K24 swap it.
The measurement of the wire twist should 8-12 twists per inch
Was searching for this comment, only those who know where that's from will understand this lol
Thankfully i can still remember that from my 1st year college days, hehe
@@juliusramos6157 Haha 👌 yep same here! Good old A&P days
And you pull on the silver knob to spin the pliers (no knob puns please)
@@arumrunner i agree
G30-660 with the 1.0 ar is a bad choice. At least for this kind of engine. Id still use this combo but on a s52 for example. G30 on a 4 cylinder should use the .82 a/r turbine housing...Id MAYBE use the 1.0 housing on 2.4 evo thats racegas tuned and with g30-770 not 660...Also unless you are hillclimbing the bestway to reduce backpressure is from bigger turbine wheel not turbine housing.
The next size small on g30 is 0.83 and basically the same flow as the g25 0.92
No need from a 2.5 build. Need more of the rx7, Silvia, skyline, and supra
I still think the Garrett GTX2867R GEN II would have been a better option. But thats a more street application not track like you blokes.
Great vid once again and awesome info. Cheers dudes.
This is what I have on my Lotus. Still trying to decide on the G25 660 or G30 660 with small housing. I have maxed out the gtx2867r at 410whp on E85. I want to get to 500whp
Nice little trick but I thought there was going to be a street test!!
They are called lock wire pliers 👍
Safety-wire pliers is the name of the tool.
Should've never bumped up the a/r... just the turbine.
Those safety wire pliers are also used in aviation,
