These look perfect for smaller displacement engines! Finally some new turbines in the long-in-the-tooth Garrett lineup. Mar-M super alloy! Definitely some cool stuff. Hopefully more are headed our way.

not that I know much about turbo's but the numbers on the 550 turbo look well small.
a gt2860rs has inducer 47,exducer 60 ar 60 and exhaust exducer 54 and this new turbo is gonna give you 200hp more.
a efr 6758 is inlet inducer 54 exducer 67, exhaust exducer58 and wont do 400 on an sr20

A 6758 will make 450WHP on a SR on full song. A 7163 will make over 500WHP on a SR.
I think your (HP) figures on the EFR are........incorrect.
Also, EFRs are NOT dyno queens. The biggest mistake people always make with EFRs is comparing strictly on a piece of paper without actually experiencing one.

what really interests me is if they will offer a direct bolt on replacement for stock s14/s15. They offer stock upgrades for the GT and GTX, GTX II series so I'm hoping they will offer one for this new G series. It's so much easier going bottom mount and running off the shelf parts.

Yeah but 5-bolt downpipes and bolted inlets and outlets suck. Plus if you’re really talking about replacing the compressor cover, you’re probably going to be sacrificing flow. They make an internal gate T25 housing, I’m sure adapting it won’t be hard.

I am glad they finally redesigned thier 30+ year old wheel design. The GTX billet wheels were fantastic and they always lacked in turbine wheel, which is where the meat of the potatoes exists.
Curious to see how these compare to the EFRs. The race is on!

Here is the G25 550 in red, and the GTX2867R Gen II in white. The maps are scaled horizontally, but not vertically. Still shows what it needs to. The G25 compressor coupled with the new higher flowing turbine should be killer.

Seems that way to me
However, the 7163 EFRs (just an example) were supposed to be 500 BHP turbos and the EVO boys are squeezing 600 WHP+ from them (over 700BHP).
If factoring real life, the real test is in drivability, power under the curve, boost response, etc since they have a newly designed wheel.
However, looking through all the similarities, they almost "literally" pulled the description and design (twin entry cooling ports on both sides of the housing, G series design turbine wheel, oil restrictor fitting in the housing, speed sensor, compact V band outlet, etc etc) straight from the EFR turbos. Garrett literally lifted just about every design feature from the EFR........Apart from the packaging with the internal gate, I will still stick with my EFR unless proven otherwise as the MAPS do not seem to pose an improvement over the standard GTX. If they make a bolt on with a good flowing gate however..........
That goes to show how far ahead of the game EFRs were to Garrett.

When I was turbo shopping last year I wanted to look into an EFR, but there wasn't enough information on the KA for a platform with a similar set up to me because 240 owners are cheap fucks.

.
Gamma-ti wheel and overspeeding. Keep it under 140,000 RPM is the general consensus for the B1 frames.
But again, evo boys making 600+ WHP what would consider serious overspeed, but I have not seen any failures as of yet (only engines going kablamooo)
Last Garrett turbo i sold was leaking out of the box, this is the 4th time i have something like this happen. I have no more faith in Garrett, Borg Warner is where it's at!

So do these turbos out perform borg warner turbos? Honestly if they're a copy paste of borg warner tech, that is just lame... rather go w/ borg warner at that point.

four cylinder turbo is amazing.
everything I've seen with v8's still has me constantly saying, "well, the 4-cylinder might not XXX but it sure can YYY" and giving my old SR credit. The thing that killed it for me was the clutch, constant traffic here took the fun out of it. And 4-cylinder auto just doesn't seem right.
Oh, the thread title. Right. So you guys realize that you are basically comparing 77% efficient compressors with "~76%" efficient compressors, right? Like, one turbo isn't "better" because it's compressor map is bigger, that just means the compressor is bigger. You are getting a very similar compressor discharge temperature across the board.
The performance aspect you are looking to compare isn't in the compressor map at all; that aspect is supported by how the dynamics of the exhaust plays out, not only the turbine wheel but what comes before/after that wheel. In other words, when comparing two similar sized compressors at say, 20psi, both discharge very similar temperatures of air if they are in similar regions of the compressor map (both maps look the same right). So any significant difference in power isn't going to be due to the compressor, comparing mass flow rate and looking at the map isn't going to reveal these discreet behaviors.

Except when one compressor is significantly smaller, meaning less mass and intertia... and when the compressor is more efficient, the turbine has to do less work, and when the turbine is more efficient, you get less emap...

You can't see compressor wheel mass on a compressor map, and you can't see somebody's exhaust setup or camshaft/head setup over the internet, which all will affect turbine work.

Must be some new super dense aluminum for a wheel smaller in every dimension not to be lighter...
We’re not comparing engines here, we’re comparing turbos. The turbine to compressor relationship stays the same on every turbo, regardless of the engine it’s attached to.
This is a discussion. Nobody is trying to prove that this is the latest and greatest turbo of all time. I’m simply excited for new possibilities and am comparing it in ways I can to others currently on the market. It’s fun and interesting to me.

The turbine on the G25-660 is only 85% the size of the EFR7163 and the compressor is 94% the size yet it flows the same. Efficiency is 79% vs 74% on the EFR. Hands down, Garrett's turbine/compressor aero is better. The only thing keeping the EFR competitive is the TiAl turbine material, if Garrett made a TiAl version of the G25-660 it'd be no contest.

Tial wheels necessitate a different design due to strength characteristics, and let’s not forget about the mixed flow wheel, which does bring the turbo online faster. Efr’s also have the built in recirc valve and a cost advantage at this point. Garrett definitely has built what seems to be some fantastic competition here though!
I’m excited for further products in the G-series line. The next step up in turbine size is going to get real rowdy!

Imagine if you used the antilag motor in the CHRA as a generator when you got to your desired boost level.. i.e. no wastegate, just turn it into an electric brake that limits the turbine speed and feeds back into the battery. Then you get rid of the wastegate AND the bigger alternator

Lz has a video on his built Sr with a g25-550 on the Dyno. Iirc it made 500 on stock fuel lines or very close to it. With solid response on a stock intake manifold. If I was to run one of these it would be with a mazworx intake manifoldz or the stock intake manifold and have it extrude honed.

His setup made really impressive power, I picked up a G25-550 after seeing that and talking to some friends.
My SR is built with slightly bumped compression, ported/polished head, Tomei 260 cams, Greddy manifold and will be on ethanol. I've got the .72 housing on mine, kinda worried its going to be a choke point, but we'll see once I get its a little later this year. Will report back with numbers!

Very nice setup. IMHO I think it would make more sense to move to the G30-660 than run a big turbine housing on the G25's. If you are looking for response, I think you'll be really happy with that setup.

^That's kind of where i'm at. Either g25-660, or g30-660. From look at ATP it seems they run the same inlet/outlet flanges, too, so easy enough to swap around.

Response was the main focus of the setup, if I make 400whp and have near instant response I think I'll be happy. Car will probably stay a street car for a while, but if it ever transitions to a mainly track car and want some more top end the G30-660 would probably be the way to go.

Speed Academy on YouTube just swapped from a G25-660 to a G30-660 on their STi and saw great top end gains. Even with the larger exhaust wheel on The G30 and a larger A/R housing they didn't lose much low end on the EJ207 that is in the car.

Seeing their results, a G30-660 with the .83 A/R housing would probably be the sweet spot for a 500whp SR with insane response.
I'm really considering getting the Garrett turbine wheel speed sensor for my setup too after seeing AdamLZ explode one on his car. Considering the response people are seeing running these turbos, I could see it being important to keep an eye on turbine speed while tuning to ensure longevity. Would also be really cool to compare this data vs a G30 on an SR with a similar setup.

Yeah if you're running any turbo hard and get a decent size boost leak, that thing is going to spin to the moon. Always good to have turbo speed on a serious setup.

They went larger with the exhaust housing as well. This kinda makes the test moot. These kinds of things have already been shown to happen in the EFR lineup. If you're going to move to a bigger turbine housing, you might as well move up a whole turbo size, because they spool roughly the same, but the bigger turbo just makes more power. It's the same thing with the GTX gen II. If you had a 3076 and were thinking about moving up in turbine housing size, it was a much better idea to go to the GTX3576, because it spools identically, just makes more power.

Yeah, they do goofy things with their turbo sizing. A stock cam EJ207 isn't exactly a top-end kind of engine hah. Of course they need huge exhaust flow to cram all that air in that anemic engine. I thought it was hilarious when they moved up in turbine housing size on the G25 and gained basically zero top end. This proves that the turbine is always the biggest restriction. If someone is shooting for response, I always recommend they run a turbine that will flow the power they need in the smallest (reasonable) turbine housing.
To put it in perspective, I have personally seen a G25-660 in a .92 housing make 505whp on E85 on an Evo X. AdamLZ's SR20 made just shy of 500whp on the 550 with mild cams! The EJ just doesn't make power.
I did think it was funny how they were trying emphasize how much faster it "feels"...well yeah, it makes 100 more whp... and how they said that the spool really wasn't noticeable or even better on the street... like naw guys, you just have a goofy setup haha.
As a side note, the G25-660 has a turbine to compressor diameter difference of 13mm. That's pretty significant on such a small turbo, and kind of fits Garrett's classic mistake of "big compressor, little turbine" in the name of "response". This usually affects transient response the most, and I bet if you put the two turbos back to back on the same engine, the 660 would be less than impressive in it's power gain/response loss.
I'm not claiming that I'm some turbo knowledge god, but I nerd out on this shit and I've seen a ton of different turbo setups. These are my educated theories.

08-24-2020, 09:20 AM
Poorman you pretty much sum up what I was thinking.
Garret, for years, have had an outdated turbine wheel. Shoot, the old outgoing wheels were coming along on 40+ years old and all they did was address the compressor wheel. Sweet, I just squeezed 100WHP more of heat at the same boost level, with none of the benefits of a more efficient turbine wheel. That causes all sorts of imbalance issue......more evident in the shitty tip in and boost recovery...the shit that actually matters on the street and track
There is a reason manufacturers do not give out turbine wheel maps. Because that is where is magic is and Garrett has paid little attention for the aftermarket as they had little competition a decade ago. That has changed drastically.....
The speed Academy results are........not something I would hang my hat on. The EJ series of engines have a really shitty flowing head, long runners to the turbo and overall, is not a good design. The new FA20 is much improved.
Now, I am not shitting on the new G series. I am shitting on the Speed Academy mischaracterization of the results.

Stick with the G25-550, a good flowing head and go break some hearts. I would not be stepping up to the G30-660 unless I have a VET, B series v btec or a K series head in terms of flow if I want a useful rev range

I'm waiting for driftcrash's channel on YT to post his g25-660 Dyno sheet. So I can compare how much laggyer it is than a g25-550. I just want to see how much later the power comes on.

How would yall compare it to a gt3071r? .63 rear housing

A standard, GT-series GT3071r? A g25-550 would absolute shit on it everywhere. Your whole powerband would just move up and to the left.
Poorman you pretty much sum up what I was thinking.
Garret, for years, have had an outdated turbine wheel. Shoot, the old outgoing wheels were coming along on 40+ years old and all they did was address the compressor wheel.
To be fair, a more efficient compressor wheel does mean the turbine has to do less work, so it's kind of a "rising tide raises all boats" kinda deal. Your point is definitely valid though, which is why EFR's just shit on everything when they were introduced. It's nice to see other manufacturers stepping up. The new Xona rotor stuff looks pretty cool too. Hard to find guys outside of drag racing using them though.

Found this on NRR. Told you so to all those people that think they need the big turbine housing. :nono:
Here is a Dyno Graph on a local Dyno Pack Hub Dyno from UMS Tuning. It is a High Compression (I 10:1 believe) S14 Sr20, 0.72 EWG G550 turbo. 517whp & 447wtq at 25psi. E85 I believe. It still had more to go as well. Not my car BTW.

It would be interesting to see it rev out more. 7500 isn't really that extreme, however, great power at 4K rpm. Also E85 though. Pump gas would be great to lay overtop to see the difference.

excellent numbers. really making me reconsider the GTX3071 I have for my sr20vet. Might hafta toss that on the sr20det in the missile car and order a new setup for the other engine.

I am curious if that motor had cams, or if the vct was engaged at all.

What do you guys think for an extreme response KA24DET set up? I am in Denver, assume a density altitude of 7000 feet, hard on turbos. In the process of rebuilding from a blown engine. Looking for a machine with the ultimate in response and an uncorrected 400whp on 91.

It is hard to tell from the picture if the VTC solenoid is intact. If it was, I would expect it helped decrease the spool. It really does help these motors make peak trq much sooner in the RPM band.
I took a better look, the solenoid is there.

It's impossible to tell spool from a dynapack dyno anyway. They always have parabolic torque curves which don't accurately reflect loading when on the road.
Regardless, this turbo is a phenomenal performer, and doesn't need the .92 housing to reach it's flow potential on a two liter. The G25-660 doesn't seem like it can flow much more with this turbine on the other hand, regardless of housing.
Here's another find, KA24 with a G30-660. I've asked him to post the dyno graph if he has it.
Almost finished engine bay setup, prior to the dyno session.

The car did great at the dyno session making 470hp 480tq on a mustang dyno...
A view of the course at Mid State Airport in Pennsylvania. The car felt like a new animal on my first run, much more responsive than the old GT2871 and the extra power would spin the 315's with ease. The trans 2nd gear ratio (2.077) is shorter than the stock S13 trans (1.902) which ended up having me doing 66mph at my redline of 7400 when i was used to doing 73mph. It sure felt like i was on limiter in a lot of places and I'm figuring with the response and power that i was just reaching 66 that quickly on this course (the clutch and TOB appeared to see a lot of heat : more in later posts).
On my last run, which ended up being a re-run is when all of the fun came to an end, with the engine blowing the #3 rod out of the block..

I have a LOT of questions about that KA set up. Thats fucking stout, for sure.
Sucks not having E85 conveniently available though. I'd turn my KA up for sure.
Edit: Poorman, can you start providing links to where you're finding this shit? I love forums and I'd definitely like to hear more about that setup

Sheesh, posts like that get me really excited to get my car running. Those numbers are really impressive, interested to know why they stopped at 7500rpm.
Tony at UMS will be tuning mine as well, my car is setup for flex fuel so I'll be able to show an pump gas and ethanol chart on an S13 SR.

You could just have this discussion on NRR where you're pulling all the info from, lol. Most people in this thread are on there as well.

Meh, this forum has a lot more traffic, and these are mostly posts in different people's threads. It's nice to have it all in one location.
EDIT: I'll start a thread in the forced induction section.
