Twin turbo build fabrication/pics

No more 6262. It will be 6265 from now on. It is available in .58 .68 .82 .96 T4 housings of course. It shares the same housing with the 6765 so if one wanted to upgrade to the 6765, they would need to buy the centre section with compressor side assembly.
This is only because PTE discontinued the 6262 T4 in a .82 housing, the .96 was not ever available either.

can the 6262 be upgraded to the 6265? or is the 6265 a whole new turbo?

ya they showed the 6466 at PRI and it will bridge between the 62 and the 67. The would be a good option for a twin setup, but for a single, the 67 is the way to go
I dont understand why none of our shops/vendors posted anything after SEMA or PRI highlighting ANY new products. You have to go to other forums to see whats new

This sounds very good:
"Hello everyone.
This is our newest unit, the PT6466B. ( B = dual hybrid ceramic ball bearing)
It features a new 64mm inducer CEA designed compressor wheel, with a new PTE designed and produced 66mm exducer turbine wheel. (Not a sourced turbine wheel but our own design) This turbo will bridge the gap between our current PT6265 and the PT6765 turbos. Rated to support 800 flywheel hp it looks to be one very potent new unit. I would love to see one of these units be put on a 235 motor with cam and heads. My guess is it's going to blow people away with the performance and gains. As Louie said before, it features a newy designed compressor cover, based on the current SP size. It has what we call "The Accelerator." Meaning, the ported shroud has special fins that help direct and turn the incoming air to the proper angle. Basically pre-spinning the air in the proper direction. This helps promote quicker spoolup and draws more air into the turbo under WOT. This is our first gas based turbo that we have incorporated the technology into. It will be offered as an upgrade on other models later in 2011.
We have also come out with a completely new V-band inlet, V-band outlet style turbine housing that is casted in 310 stainless steel and will out flow and out perform the other T4 style turbine housings. This new V-band design housing will be available for the following turbine wheels.
65mm, 66mm, 68mm, and 75mm.
Two A/R ratios will be available. .81 and .96.
The .81 will outlow the curent T4 .96 and the new .96 will flow even more. I will also post pics of these new V-band housings asap and I will post more specs about the PT6466B turbo later this week once I get back in the office.
Later

Got to get away from those small T3 housings that are sooo popular around here..

No T3 housing and no argument here! ...and I have a built motor.
I will say though that T3 housings are fine for stock block power and mild ~500whp builds, which is what the overwhelming majority of the ST market has been up to this point. The number of high power ST builds (where a T4 housing would be necessary) have been few and far between. I hope that will change soon.
IMO the main appeal/advantage of those stainless v-band housings is fitment for apps where space is tight or an issue. The disadvantage is that you can't run a quick spool valve with them. The current T4 .96 housing flows well on high power Supra apps and should on the VQ as well. We shall see...

I still have to look in to the QSV fitment, so much to do/try so litle time.

Gotta laugh at the circle jerk going on in the other thread and how the new dealers for that "best ever" kit have put their foots in their mouths with admissions that they have no experience with PL or BP. And LMAO at the DIY comment that was made yesterday!

i would think putting a front facing turbo under the drivers headlight would be awesome. You could fit a huge turbo there, have the shorts charge pipe, not heat the engine bay and run a big downpipe.
some forward facing headers and the crossover pipe infront of the engine. Screw T4, T6 baby!
Sasha, have you thought of making some tubular manifolds?

The down pipe would be the worts, as most would want it routed back in to the exahust to retain the OEM look.
No, I have not thought about tubilar manifolds.

you'd just run the downpipe back thru where you have your charge pipe now. that would just run back and tie into the stock midpipe.
you'd have to use forward facing manifolds to make it easy though. V8 guys just flip theirs, wonder if its that easy on our motor.

The amount of customization for this kit is always something that I really liked. If I could afford to go turbo, I'd definitely pick the BP kit over the other ST kits, if just for the fact that I can spec the turbo I want from the start.

The A/C line would need to be modified, again not a DIY/garage friendly task.
With the ST I always tell my cusomers that if they can get the Catalytic converters off, they can install the kit. So far this has held up well.
With that idea, the DIY goes right out the door.

I just wraped up another 67 build:
This one has the wastegate upgrade as well. I went with a PTE 44mm V-band wastegate, and I must say it is a very nice product. The nice thing is that it comes with 6 (IIRC) spring for mix and maching. So you never have to buy another spring for base boost pressure.
