I do use 2 microphones, with one under the hood.....but this Borg Warner is by far the loudest turbo I’ve had on a Subaru. Spools so loud. Fantastic turbo as well. Blowing cold air at 20psi
How are you liking this setup? Running a TD06H-20G on my stock ej205 and its doing well. This might be a nice upgrade in the future. Any estimate on the type of power you're making?
I love this turbo. Priced really well, preforms really well, t3 flange makes fab easy, and makes good noises if you’re into that lol. At 20 psi it’s making roughly 330whp by 7,000rpm. Full boost with the ej205 by 4,000-4500 depending on gear. I have a built/cammed 2.0 going in soon and should be able to make 450-500 with this turbo no problem.
@@k24impreza I know, is the wastegate spring fluttering open and closed or is it supposed to sound like that? I'm not trying to hate just curious. There is clearly surges of air through the system rather than a continuous wastegate exit stream.
@@k24impreza Ohhh is this a Subaru thing from unequal length headers? I could see that causing the flow inconsistency and the fluttering sound when you're boosting.
Yea, that’s just how subarus boost control system makes it sound. If it was using a manual boost controller or just going off spring pressure it would sound constant. With the electronic boost controller it’s rapidly opening and closing the wastegate to keep boost where I wanted it, so it makes the annoying sound.
20psi and aroudn 330whp? considering a S200SXE for a k24 build but i'm not sure how to spec it. looking for around 350-400whp with as much response as possible
You’re talking a Honda k24 right? That should make way more power at the same boost as my Subaru engine did. Should have decent high compression right? This ej205 engine only has 8.0:1 so it takes 20psi to get over 300whp. I’m no Honda expert, but I think you can get 350-400 on a k24 with like 10-15psi. Could be wrong though
No T51R mod. It’s a very loud turbo. It’s hard to hear in videos so this is with a microphone in the engine bay to hear it better....so this is slightly louder than it really is, but still very loud spool noises in the cabin. Sounds like a diesel truck 😂😂
One of the best sounding ej205s I’ve heard. Lots of turbo noise. I like it

@@k24impreza t51r,mod?
@@ieatflys nope. Just a normal borg Warner s257sxe. It’s loud cause I had a mic in the engine bay near the turbo lol
Have the same turbo on my car
2011 wrx
And love it
Nice!
Where did you get air vent gauge pod for AEM wideband?
I just cut the stock air vent to fit my gauges and made small brackets to hold them

What's with the surging sound under boost? The turbo flow stream sounds highly inconsistent.
That’s the wastegate not the turbo

Is this a stock block?
Nick Omara yea, stock usdm ej205
Does this turbo have the T51R mod that it spools that loud?
