dilop Posted July 26, 2004 Share Posted July 26, 2004 Hey guys! My firt post after 2 months of be part of the HybridZ Family. I have been using the search tool and it help me a lot with my project: a 81' 280ZX 2+2 N/A to Turbo . I all ready order a Megasuirt, an Electromotive HPX unit, I'm making an engine rebuild, gear box rebuilt, custom cluth, suspension upgrades and I'm looking for a turbo. I read all the treads about turbos and turbo upgrades and I will choose a turbo soon...tie budget and here in Costa Rica is hard to find used turbos anyway... Here is the reason of this tread: - This guy from my town is parting out a Mazda Rx7 Turbo II and he is selling me his re-built HT18-2S turbo for just $100. It looks in great shape and I know the guy who rebuilts it. My question is: Could this turbo work with my L28 engine??(do not worry about custom headers or that) I can not find the turbo's flow Map, so im lost in the space... I read in a Skyline forum that it could be use in a rb30 or so... Here's some info: "Mazda and Hitachi jointly developed the HT18S-2S Twin Scroll turbocharger for the 13B Turbo. This new turbocharger was designed to have virtually no " turbo lag " by having a flap that varies ( vacuum operated @ above 2500rpm ) depending on the load that opens wider during heavy load to have greater throuput and torque band. The turbo had two exhaust intakes into the turbine, the turbo acted as two turbos, by having both of advantages of small and big turbos, giving fast low end torque response and high end power. The turbine side was water cooled where the main body was cooled by a dual-ski heat shield." What do U guys Think about? any help will be thanks!
