Jose
How much and do you upgrade the exhaust manifold??

						Hi guys,
Over the last couple of weeks we´ve been working with one of the top turbo specialists - CRtururbos- to try and have a cost efective turbo upgrade for the td5 using the latest turbo solutions. Turbo technology and materials is changing almost every months and there are a lot to choose and and a lot to mess with!
We are gona try a few solutions from the standart turbo, and this is the first unit with some of those solutions...more to follow!
From the stock 2052 to turbo , we have devolped a 20XX turbo with:
Upgrade compressor wheel;
cnc machined compressor housing,turbine cuting to reduce egt´s and backpressure;
turbine housing machined to reduce back pressure;
VSR 270.000 rpm´s balanced;
upgrade actuator by Forge;
Remap adjustments will start tomorrow
Stay tuned
Jose

						At the risk of starting a fight.
Clipping turbines is the worst thing you can do for them. It is a trick used by petrol engine tuners 20 years ago to get more flow through a turbine (at the expense of low end response and efficiency). They did this because larger A/R's weren't available.
However for a diesel we don't want more flow through the turbine. We instead require the turbine to work harder and produce more boost at the same rpm.
A GT2056 turbine CHRA will plug straight into a TD5 GT2052 turbine housing. Giving a compressor capable of 30psi boost and delivering a safe and clean ~160kw worth of airflow at ~17:1 A/F ratio.
Low end response will improve over stock.
Maybe Jose can post up some dyno figures when he has one completed

						LOOOLLL
When I was posting this thread I was with one of my co-workers and I´ve said to him " there is a guy name Dougal, wich is gona be the first one to write something about this, and believe me, he his not gona say positive things"
Well...here it is! You are not gona start a fight because I still think the same I´ve said to you in other discussions: go out there, make it better and then you prove a point! Till then, you are just theory and no real td5 world.
For the record the company that makes this turbo has:
- European record of the fastest diesel car going in to santa pod - That is a 1.9tdi car making 400 meters @ arround 10 seconds!
- Diesel 3.0 Isuzu´s winning Fia Bajas Races;
- Diesel 2.7 Nissans winning 4x4 24h endurance races;
- Turbocharged Toyota Supras twinning drift championships all over Europe, etc etc
So again, its a case of a company that make things happen everyday and prove himselfs right...
Some of their work and attention to details:
So, we have made very specific request to them... They have answered asking If some things could be done in the map files... we gave them an answer and they have given us solutions... We are now starting to try those solutions and are gona decide wich are better. This is called developmentSimple as that!
Regards,
P.S. 1 - I dont know if you noticed the XX on the 20XX numbersThis maybe means that the turbo is now a 2056
;
P.S. 2 - I also dont know if you noticed that the turbo wheels are bit different form standart... so, maybe, this wheels can produce more boost at same or lower revs... 30 psi is guaranteed by the makers of the turbo, but they claim we can use the turbo to 2.5 bars If we want and dont have to worrie about turbo failure...
P.S. 3 When a company is devoloping something, you should not expect them to tell you everything about theyr product ... so, maybe you are missing some things!
Regards,

						Exhaust manifold will be the stock one! We will also try the turbos with differente exausths types and sizes.
We expect them to be available for Australia @ arround 1200AUD - In Europe they will be a bit cheaper because we can have the old turbos as an exchange! Sorry for that guys
We will do that...

						GT2056 #751578 specs: https://www.turbobygarrett.com/turbo...charger#GT2056
Compressor map:
Turbine map (not butchered):
About $US800 complete genuine turbo. I've been recommending them for a year or so. Simply use your original TD5 turbine housing and it'll plug straight in.
Of course this turbo still doesn't have the surge resistance for 500Nm on a TD5.

						Your recomendation is based on ...?!! Have you tried that on your td5??
Do you have a remap to match it?? Logs, data and figures about how it goes in the td5!!?
So 800 USD = 900 AUD + 340 AUD (remap to match the turbo) = 1240 AUD (already more expensive) ... and you still have to fit it to the original td5 turbine and for 100% accurate work, calibrate it! Still more 100 AUD for a boost box ( wich should be free of charge in our turbos)!
P.S. - We did tried a simple 2056 in 2010 and the result was not brilliant. Lots, and I mean lots of turbo lag... was like an on/off button ( nothing and sudently everything)!!!There should be a thread here where we talk about it...That´s why we are now trying a new aproach, using differente compressor wheel!
We have also tried ballbearing turbos, and we found them fantastic on a 300tdi but not brilliant in a td5!!
And, we have also tried and use some ballbearing VNT turbos , but there are a lot of changes to be made for the fittment and we only do that in house...
Next to be tested is the 1756VK VNT turbo from the 2.7 tdi Audi which we think is gona be excelent at down low torque!

						Full engineering analysis including turbine side matching to predict boost using exhaust temperature and flows.
It's about 10 years of my own work. Yeah I know a little bit about turbos.
Have I tried it on my Td5? Nope. I didn't try an HX30 on my 4BT either, but the boost results matched within ~2psi across the working range.
If I had a TD5 I'd have my own remap sorted inside a week. I do my own engine tuning. Including remaps.
The only holdup would be finding and fitting a MAP sensor capable of covering the turbos pressure range. I notice there's no mention of this by you!
Right. So you think a GT2056 is laggy. Then you're trying to sell a GT20XX with a bastardised clipped turbine?
I'm guessing you don't understand what clipping does. It kills turbine efficiency and low end response. Introducing a lot of lag, but slightly increasing top end flow.
You do also realise there are many GT2056 turbos with different A/R turbine housings?
Dougal, what are you doing?! You hate it when people ruin your threads, why are you doing it to someone else who is clearly trying to achieve the same as you - find the perfect turbo for a particular diesel engine?
The thread does not request feedback. It is a forum vendor provding information on their product. I expected you to reply, but I expected you to respect what Jose has very clearly stated - that he is trying different applications to compare outcomes and decide on the best specifications.
I respect you know a lot about turbos and I bought a turbo on your years of work and recommendation - and I really appreciate that - but from what I've seen you have changed your mind on the best turbo as more information has become available. Does that mean you were wrong up until now? (Don't respond - the answer is no, you developed your answer over time).
Documenting the process of working through different options and sharing the outcomes is fantastic and if people who do that are treated like this, they will stop sharing and the rest of us will not learn anything.
Edit: Happy to discuss further, but preferably not in this thread!
