GT45 turbo?
- Thread starter suprafanatic
- Start date
I dont know but Im curious as well, my buddy tried to sell me one that he was gonna put on his civic but said it wouldnt fit in there. But I checked the A/R on the hot side and it was 1.15.:aigo: No way my 7m could spool that!:3d_frown:
GT45 is a vague term.... Which one with which rear housing? Gt4508 (gt45R) or a GT47 journal bearing, GT42 Journal bearing, etc etc etc?
You must also remember that the A/R is a ratio of the turbine VS the housing. You can two different housings that are 1.00 rear A/R.

GT4580 or gt4588?
What A/R?
one step at a time man.
We have not had a current 7m pass 1k mark yet and you are looking at 1800hp turbos??? lol

currently?
please do show.
operative word is CURRENTLY.
The HKS 7m is not current.
And Mibrums car, well we think it did that but he has not posted on here in ages.
ya i saw it on ebay..... im looking for a ugrade from stock turbo... maybe somthing biger than just an upgraded ct-26. any ideas??
Are you guys talking about ebay turbos? I always thought those cheap ebay turbos were bad and were no no's?
Mibrum posted a few months ago. He said that he was at around 1300 all boost and that he was planning on going to a Nitrous setup soon.

Please do explain why the time of occurance really matters in this particular conversation?
Whether a 7M hit 1000hp 4 years ago or 4 days ago, it's still worthy of being noted for.
Mibrum is exactly who I had in mind, FYI. The reason for mentioning the 1,000 horespower mark for the 7M was just to clarify that it hadn't been done yet, and it has.
With that being said, yes, GT45 (Which ever options included with/), is a definate quadruple digit horsepower turbo with enough FB&T.
Nathan - Just wait for the 57 Trim Group Buy and stop day dreaming over dyno queen-material turbos for your stock 7M. :biglaugh:

we are running the bullseye S258 with great results, 11.91@117mph@16psi
also @16psi with 630cc @3bar we are running 83% duty cycle. the 630cc@100% is good for 650hp so we are making great power at only 16psi.

Simple
because after HKS did there magic.
No one. Incase you missed it here it is one more time. NO ONE has been able to replicate that feat. 10 years after the fact mind you. I know these motors CAN do it. But I have yet to see anyone flip the coin to do it.
HP is not cheap regardless of what everyone thinks.
As for Mibrum, I know he ahd power except we never saw the outcome and from talking to him, the crank was wet noodling itself to death at those levels.
1000 hp is going to cost alot of money. More than most people are willing to afford.

One of the guys in europe made a 7m drag car that was supposed to be over 1000hp. Don't remember what his SN was but he is on here.
Who said 1000hp was cheap?
Speaking of, don't MKIV's come stock with 1000hp, anyway?
:biglaugh:
figgie - I'm not going to argue with you. I agree 100%, it's not an easy this to accomplish, NOR common...but the fact that it's been done is the only point i'm stressing.

i know of someone who has a setup that can brake 1kwhp... ive seen the parts myself and the turbo is 1/2 the size of my torso. it will be done and will be able to hold traction.
