      ​@PaulyDDownunder in Europe it seems the best of the best is considered precision, also backed by Koeneggsigg's semi-recent usage of them.
      My local tuner sorts most of Europes fastest drift cars for drift masters, British drift championship, FD etc.
      His cars all use precision + 6boost. The only real exception is for James Deane using BW but his cars are family build by his brother at DeansMSport so not really showing of how the cars across the continent are built here.
      In ireland most people would consider Duanes RB a more competitive build than James's 2J and again, it uses precision.

      Not necessarily unique, as a very similar style is already used on EFR, G-Series, and many OEM turbos. That said, it is a modern and well performing design and it's certainly welcome. Can save packaging and money plus it's pretty bulletproof.

    • @TurbosmartHQ
      @TurbosmartHQ Рік тому +5

      We learnt a thing or two about turbocharger oiling over the last 6 years with the development of the OPR series... while there is allot of effort to get oil out of the bearing housing to reduce the likelyhood of the symptons you see with oil pooling and over-pressurisation... We have also noticed and aknowledge there is a dynamic turbocharger efficiency benefit from correct oil pressure. The easy version: lower, (but still appropriate) oil pressure equates to increased turbocharger efficiency as it reduced bearing losses that can effectively 'slow'' the main shaft down due to over-supply. In short. TS turbochargers are less likely to NEED an OPR because of smoking issues that are the most commong 'issue', but they can still certainly benefit from them and an OPR removes all the guesswork from restrictor sizing and line selection, etc.

      @@TranceFur They do look veeery similar to HPT. I would expect Turbosmart to partner with another company to make these. The equipment and machinery necessary to make turbos is massive, tons of supply chain connections necessary. HPT turbos seem excellent and if they are working with them, they seem to have added features such as internal wastegate exhaust housings, water cooled center housings, and possibly the updated oil slinger shaft design. A lot of the same marketing and features language is used by both HPT and Turbosmart, but the Turbosmart products do at least seem bespoke. Take all with a grain of salt.
