Hi,

since the introduction of the Billet range, part numbers have evolved, for example the SC 46 non Billet had a 46llb wheel in it, the Billet version has a slightly bigger wheel which is lighter and therefore will make more power.

It is always better to stay on the safe side to avoid dissapointment, if the SC36 Billet for example gives more than 360 bhp then everyone is happy.

Hope that clarifies things a little.

Cheers

So yes, the lb/min rating of the wheel does just happen to coincide with the ballpark bhp figure (1st two digits)!

Test drove this today, very impressive, spools like a ****!! 1 bar of boost just after 3k and full boost before 4k

typeRv4

Not really as a rule of thumb for every 10lb/min airflow = 100hp

So a 46lb comp has the ability to make 460hp IF everything else is upto the job

Hi,

for those interested in the SC46 BILLET TWIN SCROLL we road tested it yesterday, as stated above, and data logged it.

The turbo makes 1 bar of boost at 3100 RPM, 1.5 bar at 3500 RPM. and 1.7 bar at 3700 RPM, gearbox is a 6 speeder tests in 4th gear, on a flat road.

What a stunning road / track car

cheers

Sounds like an enjoyable road test.

Yeah, that's what I mean. The potential bhp (1st 2 digits) just happens to 'match' the lb/min rating of the comp wheel.

e.g. 46lb/min = 460bhp max. (potentially - given appropriate mods, etc.)

It's just one of those weird things...

That SC46 Billet sounds fab! I want one lol.

Ilya

would be interesting to see it tested vs the equivalent Litchfield turbo ))

The Gaffer

Hi,
remember the results recently posted are SC46 BILLET TWIN SCROLL

Normal SC46 BILLET has not yet been tested yet, it awaits a suitable test mule

Hi Kev

Appologies i have not read the post from the start but just picked up the bit that i am interested in.

SC360 for my blobeye wrx.

I have been buying and adding bits to the car and was following Andy Forests spec aiming at the 360bhp mark.

The turbo is my sticking part now. I love the car as it drives now with everything happening around the 3000rpm mark. So the big question for me is which ever turbo i go for will i still get what i have got now with the boost.

Regards to all

P.s I live in Chesterfield/ Junction 30

Hi,
as you live literally up the road from us best pop in and see what its all about, we can discuss turbo's and options to achieve your goal.

Oh yeah, forgot lol. The age! - sod my short term memory

But still, a fantastic pointer to the regular SC46's performance....

The Gaffer

Hi,

we feel that the SC46 Billet single scroll will give a better power figure than the twin scroll version

Its all in the wheel

We will have to wait and see

Thanks for every ones interest in this thread.

cheers

This has been/is one of the best threads.

Revealing new turbos and their objective RR results is like unravelling Christmas presents and experiencing the mystery prior to taking all the wrapping off. Probably.

Looks like ive found my ideal turbo... when is the sc46 billet single scroll likely to be available?

The Gaffer

Hi,
it is available now.

I would like to test one prior to releasing it for general sale, just to make sure it works as we expect, also gives us dyno results for our /your records

Cheers
Kev

what sort of set up are you after to test the single scroll 46 on then kev ?

The Gaffer

Hi,

as I stated earlier in this thread something that has either an SC46 non billet or something similar, that way we can back to back it properly

Your STI, with the correct supporting mods, would be an ideal car for the SC40

Cheers

I have a GT30 hybrid that made 440bhp, in the similar ballpark to the SC46. Car has a forged 2 litre and usual supporting mods.

The Gaffer

Hi,

I take it yours is a rotated set up, the SC46 BILLET is a true direct fit, so test would be void

Cheers

Standard position turbo, very similar to an MD321T according to Simon during mapping.

Graph for said turbo
