i think he was referring to how people have been using holsets on hondas for a while now and it is nothing new hence the 1999 remark. like clear taillights are so '90s

I thought he ment since they are bigger, its not worth the hassle of bolting them in as the Honda engine bay can be tight at times. And I thought he meant the Holsets spool at 1999. Okay...

no,ofcourse not, everybody knows holsets get full spool at ide...

Dammit I knew it, that's why my fuel mileage has gone down the drain...who would have thought.

Cool. I've tuned 6 different Garrett turbos in the last three weeks, and I currently own more Holsets than you have ever owned. You can take one turbo of any brand you please and bolt it to six different cars with stock GSR motors and it will spool differently on each one. Welcome to the motley assortment of parts found on a Honda, assembled by people of very very widely varying experience, knowledge, and ability. I prefer the Garretts because not only are the compressor housings "a little smaller" but the whole turbo isn't 1+ inches longer between max scroll OD and 1.75+ inches longer overall - dealing with any shelf manifold usually has the flange cocked to tuck a Garrett with at-biggest T04 S-cover against the block or VC, and the extra diameter and length of a Holset ***** things royally.

A ------- .50 trim T3/T04E will have 10 psi by 3500, 15+ by 4000 rpms on a ------- D16. A .60 will act the same with 200-500 rpms later spool, which still makes it spool faster than what you are claiming a GSR spools these turbos at. Your problem is that ram horn of yours, and just because it suits that Holset doesn't mean you've seen everything and know it all. Fact is, most T04E Garretts spool the same or faster on your engine, only with a different manifold of whatever style. A friend's GSR running .60 T04E with stage five turbine and .63 AR housing makes first positive pressure at 2500 rpms and is at 15 psi by 4200 - whoopty-doo.

I have a T67 with P-trim wheel that made first positive pressure at 4200 on a friend's 84mm 2.0/VTEC, 10 psi by 5500. On my 85mm LS it will spool quicker than your Holset. It's all in what you know.

If you want to turn this thread into something useful, like a how-to on using the software tools you utilized, a large slice of HMT user's base will appreciate the ---- out of it. If you want to keep on telling us about Holsets, most will find you pedantic as we already know, and some like myself will find you annoying and/or misinformed. I advise a change of subject... and that you post ****.

I didn't mean to annoy you or anyone else on this forum. Why so much hate? If you would have looked at the ------sheets instead of criticizing my posts, you and anyone else can see how the calcs were made. I was hoping some would show interest, maybe even post good ideas on how to make the numbers more accurate instead of bitching. I will delete this for you, Sir, and all the others who don't want it up.

Whoa, Bro! It's nothing personal.
