Lightbulb Updates on Billet 6765 turbo...??

Any further updates/builds using the PTE billet 6765 (or 6262)?? My friends at ISP racing in MD just finshed another supra turbo running the 6765 (stock block/stock heads) with all the supporting mods on E85 @ 30psi and put down 752RWHP with 656rwt!! Full boost by only 4400rpm* Its made great power all the way to its 7600rpm redline with no drop off...(i.e. a HUGE usable powerband, excellent response/torque)


I'm SURE these 6765's would make huge power with amazing boost response/area under the curve on streetported 13B... i'm really surprised with don't hear of any FD's running these already...

The majority of the rotary community is slow off the block. There's a few people using these like crispeed as well as logan from defined autoworks who had a billet project on the go when I was down in July. A local member here just bought one as part of a re-work of his setup...........but generally speaking, most of us follow the flock. If there's not 30 threads someone can look up showing results (ie. the GT35R) then most won't take a dip in the unchartered waters.

I'm as anxious as you to see some results, but I think its going to take time.

Not to mention I think one factor holding these turbos back is the limited options you have with them. I for one am not going back to an open volute turbine housing, and until scorpionT gives up his secrets I'd have no other choice with a PTE turbo

There are a few out there I have on here I'm trying to finish up now on a car, just waiting for a few small things to come back from machining, cleaning etc. I'm sure they'll perform well. Thing is most people wont push them to 30psi Almost all the kits I sell are to people wanting 20psi or less and pump gas. I'm not so sure you'll see a huge gain at those levels. We saw no appreciable gain on the 62mm billet comp over the standard 35R comp at the same boost levels. The boost came on smoother is about it, which can be expected when stepping to a larger compressor at a given level.

I think a 62/65 would be a great street setup, with a 67/68 H-cover being a good street drag turbo.

Hey Ernie! Good stuff, i think you would've made retarded/record breaking rwhp numbers with the turbo u were running (being it already made 822rwhp before the ignition issue)... however, a 6765 on your build/set-up will have ridiculous area under the curve/boost response... u will virtually feel NO lag comparing to your previous set-ups/turbo's... I think you'd still see well over 700rwhp with the PTE on your motor @ full kill.

Good luck and definitely keep me posted**

jumping on an internet forum bandwagon is another form of following the flock

the marginal increase from the manufacturing process (billet vs cast) is practically nil. The marginal increase in power and response from the different wheel geometry alone will be debated for a long time, especially given the lack of flow maps and the scarcity of consistent and controlled dyno testing. Many are open to new developments but have a reflexive skepticism towards the next "big thing."

I followed the flock. Was going to try a 62/62, but went w/ a T4 35R.

Hey! I'm glad you came to your senses Ernie.

Youre right, the manufacturing process doesnt increase power, but the new aero DOES make a difference. Dyno testing has proven that these wheels work without a doubt. Supras are making ~850whp with the 6765, AWD made 920whp with one. Nobody has made power levels like those with the old style wheels, not even close. Its not just PTE that has these, look at BW wheels that are similar. Garrett also has some now, Forced Performance has them. They work, plain and simple.

Not likely till next spring, winter's starting to rear its ugly head up here. dipping down to near freezing at night now, and it's rained for the past week straight. I might suck it up, get everything on and attend a november race in the NE, I'm really not sure yet.
