And voila!

Sitting in the MotoIQ garage was a Garrett GTX2860R turbo that I used to help visualize where my turbo would go.

To help with the design of the manifold, I needed a model of the turbo in addition to the engine. Garrett had just shown the new G-series at SEMA and didn’t have any real units available, but they did lend me the 3d plastic model off the SEMA display. I needed reverse rotation which this 3d print was, but I’m going external wastegate and this was internally gated. No biggy, we just hacked off the internal wastegate in the model. To help make the turbo easier to scan, Cheston made a rotating Lazy Susan out of Legos. That way, the scanner could be held still and the turbo just spun on the Lazy Susan.

And now we had a scan of the Garrett G25-660.

Next, we needed an idea of the package space available to fit everything. Honda being Honda was extremely efficient in their packaging. Hence, there’s space for the naturally aspirated header and not a whole lot else which is why everyone has to make various compromises packaging turbos on S2000s. Fortunately, Karla’s track S2000 was in the garage with the header heatshield removed so we popped the hood to take some measurements of the package space.

We tried a few different wastegate placements including between the turbo and the block, but nothing seemed to work quite as well as our final location. Again, the benefit of having the 3d engine scan and representations of the turbo and wastegate, we were able to try out a number of layouts in 3d space. Again, the fear is boost creep. Placing the wastegate on the underside of the manifold between the turbo and block, there’s not a good wastegate flow path. I’m planning to run boost by gear using the Hondata K-Pro, so likely just base wastegate spring pressure in 1st gear and ramp up the boost depending on how much traction I get in the various gears. I imagine the full 15psi of boost in 3rd gear. Well…. actually will be targeting a torque max of 350tq at the crank as that’s what my clutch setup will limit me to. The nice thing about the K-pro is I can shape the boost curve to whatever I want to get the torque curve shape I want.
Also, when my engine was pulled to be built for boost, Project S2000 (AP1) inherited my oil cooler setup. I’m actually going to revert back to the stock oil/coolant heat exchanger donut. As the car isn’t a track car, the stock oil cooler donut will be plenty sufficient. This is my old oil cooler setup for reference: https://motoiq.com/project-s2000-oil-cooling/

Placing the wastegate on the underside of the manifold between the turbo and block, there’s not a good wastegate flow path. I’m planning to run boost by gear using the Hondata K-Pro, so likely just base wastegate spring pressure in 1st gear and ramp up the boost depending on how much traction I get in the various gears. I imagine the full 15psi of boost in 3rd gear. Well…. actually will be targeting a torque max of 350tq at the crank as that’s what my clutch setup will limit me to. The nice thing about the K-pro is I can shape the boost curve to whatever I want to get the torque curve shape I want.

Placing the wastegate on the underside of the manifold between the turbo and block, there’s not a good wastegate flow path. I’m planning to run boost by gear using the Hondata K-Pro, so likely just base wastegate spring pressure in 1st gear and ramp up the boost depending on how much traction I get in the various gears. I imagine the full 15psi of boost in 3rd gear. Well…. actually will be targeting a torque max of 350tq at the crank as that’s what my clutch setup will limit me to. The nice thing about the K-pro is I can shape the boost curve to whatever I want to get the torque curve shape I want.
Also, when my engine was pulled to be built for boost, Project S2000 (AP1) inherited my oil cooler setup. I’m actually going to revert back to the stock oil/coolant heat exchanger donut. As the car isn’t a track car, the stock oil cooler donut will be plenty sufficient. This is my old oil cooler setup for reference: https://motoiq.com/project-s2000-oil-cooling/
We tried a few different wastegate placements including between the turbo and the block, but nothing seemed to work quite as well as our final location. Again, the benefit of having the 3d engine scan and representations of the turbo and wastegate, we were able to try out a number of layouts in 3d space. Again, the fear is boost creep.
