Toyota 86 Forced Induction issues... Turbo Charging vs Supercharging My GT86

[ae8zn6]

Sounds fairly similar to the good Ol' SC12.... at least in the rev ranges that I stuck around to hear from that vid

I had a talk to the guys at avo at WTAC on the weekend and interestingly they claim their kit makes more torque quicker and earlier than the existing supercharger kits.

I was impressed with the quality of the kits and whilst they don't fit the kits themselves, it is a good package on offer

We do a lot with AVO and they have a great product at a reasonable price. I do my tuning with BRZ edit due to the cost of ECUtek, ECUtek is good but the costs involved have to be passed on somewhere and it can't really do anything that you can't with BRZ Edit, even the opensource stuff is well covered these days. A turbo suits the high compression engine better as there is no point cramming boost in at low rpm, sure E85 means you can do it but its not always available. With variable camshafts lag is non existent. PD Superchargers are more parasitic and tend to have high outlet air temps when turned hard therefore reducing top end power.

here is a video comparing the TRD 86 vs a HKS supercharged 86

Went to melbourne MotorEx and saw a number of 86's with turbo and blower configurations. My main issue was they are too visible. Here in Victoria the police will open the bonnet and slap a fat canary on. Off to the EPA or take It all off. That's one of the things about the AVO kit. Much less obvious.

I would be keen to drive a boosted one

of course it will be faster and more fun to drive than a bog stock one...but

an NA one really pushes you as a driver to get the most out of the car - punishes mistakes and rewards smooth driving - if you run a good lap/stage/run in an NA 86 you know you earned it

TBH most people who turbo these cars wouldn't have an issue with engineering it either... Lets face it a 30k car with a another $6k for a turbo install , i'm sure they will find the extra to engineer it.

My wife is enjoying her car as it is at the moment, I want to turbo it so I can have it on hand for customers to test, just need a little more time and encouragement.

MRT are offering a blower that runs 17 psi..

A friend of mine got the forged performance kit

Kit contents:
Turbo: Garret GTX2867R, Tial stainless V-band exhaust housing, Blouch billet compressor wheel and compressor housing
Turbo manifold: Forged Performance designed and fabricated equal length manifold, 304ss steam-pipe construction, Billet flanges, cnc cut merge collector
Dump Pipe: Forged Performance stainless steel 3″ dump pipe (catted optional), this dump pipe meets up with OEM or aftermarket overpipes (2.5″). Full 3″ dump pipe is available as an option but requires modification to the supplied 3″ overpipe (v-band flange to be welded on)
Intercooler: Forged Performance designed intercooler and built by the world famous Hypertune to exceed all requirements this kit can throw at it, Super light weight, perfect fitments and the highest efficiency intercooler construction on the market.
Wastegate: 40mm Turbosmart CompGate. These are the highest quality wastegates on the market and are used in most high end drag cars, time attack cars and drift cars. (Wastegate can be plumbed into dump pipe as an option)
Blow Off Valve: 38mm Dual Port Turbosmart, These blow off valves are the highest flowing blow off vaslves on the market and can be switched between fully atmospheric, fully recirculation and 50/50.
Piping: All piping is made from 5 ply wire re-enforced silicone for perfect fitments, no heat sink, high amount of durability and flexibility.
Electrics: Omni 4bar map sensor is included for tuning ease.
Hoses and fittings: All hoses and fittings are speedflow items for only the best quality kit, these hoses and hose fittings are heat insulated where applicable and have been carefully selected for only the best fitments.
Sump: Some people like to drill into the OEM sump and weld on a oil drain fitting to be able to accumulate the oil from the turbo, we did one step better, we have sourced the amazing sump from the Full Blown turbo kits and integrated them into our kit. This sump has a 50% higher capacity than oem and includes baffles to help prevent oil starvation, another thing this sump has is a fitting port in it for the turbo oil drain.
