off the wall experiment

This is how i've tuned my set, and i'm happy with the results.....whether that be right or wrong based on the internet approved "common knowledge" of twin tuning.

With my turbos (mismatched junk) i need to work the primary harder for best results

That's what I'm talking about. Every infor out there states to have them share the load. As in both the primary and secondary are creating equal amounts of pressure. But then some spin the primary like crazy and let it do 3/4 the work? I tried talking to a few people, but this is what they tell me "Don't doubt the Ht3B".
 
The trick is making it easy to adjust, then go to the track and see what nets you the best mph, or dyno in the same session, for the most hp..
 
Sure recompressing the air charge is nice, but I wouldn't sacrifice less mass flow from primary for more recompression from secondary.

What he said, going for equal load is a great idea but doesn't seem to net the best gains for max effort. Jmd if your set is mismatched then what the hell is my set LOL
 
Yours will never work. The ratio has to be exactly that of a 66/80. So with yours you need to resize to a 72-73mm primary. Otherwise keep the primary and upsize the secondary.

I dunno Cliff, but my pocket book is dictating i run what i brung, so i have tried all of the tuning spectrum and settled on what everyone said was the wrong way, as the best running setup.

You and i can trade sets at anytime you'd like:Cheer:
 
Ok pulled the e gate off and am using the lightest spring plus regulated boost to fight drive pressure. Hopeing that will keep it close to 1/1. I did have to clean the gate up pretty good it was almost siezed from soot/ nastyness. It moves much much much better.
 
I've noticed in my testing/tuning with the He351cw compound setup that adjusting the wastegate has both direct and indirect results.

1. It bypasses exhaust which lowers drive pressure hitting the He's turbine wheel=He351 loses some available shaft horsepower so compressor rpm goes down.
2. The bypassed exhaust retains higher average temperature meaning there is more energy available to drive the big atmosphere turbo=interstage boost goes up.
3. The He's resulting drop in shaft horsepower slows it down to where it cannot consume as much air flow.
4. Because the He351 cannot consume as much air due to lowered shaft horsepower, it raises the inter-stage boost pressure because there is more "back-up" on the intake system.
5. The higher interstage boost equates to a more mass dense air charge.
6. The more mass dense air charge requires more shaft horsepower from the He351 to perform that same amount of compression ratio.


Bascially, it takes quite a bit of fine tuning to get it all working perfectly!
 
I'll be watching this. I'm interested if drive pressure can be kept in check, I'm starting to wonder if the 58mm turbine on the 351 is too small for larger primaries cause it takes so much drive pressure to drive the 351 hard enough to effectively compound the air from the primary. I'm just thinking out loud here.

You'd be surprised, it works well.

Well I got a billet seven blade 70.5/104 comp wheel for my GT42. Anyone ever seen a map for it?
 
I meant to say a 71/102 wheel is what it measures so a gt4294 map wouldn't really be the same since the exducer is larger, and it's a seven blade vs a six. Yes, currently FI has the backplate to get it cut. This wheel is also a bit taller, or protrudes into the comp housing further. I don't think I will need to bore the comp housing but we will see once I get it back.
 
Ok pulled the e gate off and am using the lightest spring plus regulated boost to fight drive pressure. Hopeing that will keep it close to 1/1. I did have to clean the gate up pretty good it was almost siezed from soot/ nastyness. It moves much much much better.

And Then......?????
