I have a superspool turbo to go onto my 20vt and my mate has a 20vt with a gtir hybrid already fitted...
Anyone know the main difference between these two in spec and how they perform?
Are they both equal but have different power deliveries as my mates is 301 bhp and the coupe I got the superspool off was 302 bhp at the same boost levels.
So what is the difference between these two t28 hybrid turbos and is one better than the other?

Gtir is alot better than a superspool.. Don't know how you got 300bhp as I could only get 280bhp on a superspool and 290bhp on a gtir. I will put some specs up later for you.

A superspool is about half way in between the standard one and GTiR in terms of size, power, and spool up, but it should have a 360 thrust bearing and uprated oil seals just like the GTiR.

It was jimos old coupe I got the turbo off, the printouts were for 302bhp @1.2 bar and apparantly 307 fl/lbs now either its a very optimistic rolling road or something but the car did feel as quick as my mates gtir turbo'd coupe. So if the superspool is only halfway between the std and a gtir turbo there must be some spec differences then I take it?

A GTiR'c coop will be faster and feel faster than the same coop with the same mods. Different cars make different power with the same mods though. I think JimO had a big downpipe and exhaust that would have allowed it to flow a bit more. The dyno could of course been a bit optimistic also
F****** b****** thing...

It was a powerful car, it made 272 on a std turbo, plus extras, with a PT unichip remap.
With the SS turbo it was remapped at PT with a gtech 2 and got 302 / 307 as BMCU states.
At that time though, it had an evo IC, new boost controller, new rad, new injectors, 3" decat and was running very well.
But as Jimbo says the SS was very harsh in its delivery, it was either off or scrabbling under boost, it wasn't very smooth!

Gtir is alot better than a superspool.. Don't know how you got 300bhp as I could only get 280bhp on a superspool and 290bhp on a gtir. I will put some specs up later for you. That is entirely subjective and depends if you want quick spool and less top end, or the other way round. 10bhp peak power is neither here nor there, and certainly does not tell you which car would be quicker - that could just be a day to day variance even on the same rollin road, and does not take into account the power / torque curve of the car. On standard cams, head etc. I would expect a car running a superspool to make about 280 bhp at 1.2 or 1.3 bar of boost when running a three inch downpipe and decent FMIC. On the same spec car a gtir would make 10-15 bhp more at the top end.

Ah so it is bigger. Thanks for clearing that up Are there variation in sizes for the turbine side Rog? the turbine wheels are all the same, except my stage 2 hybrid which is the biggest available.

I believe the TD version of the Gti-R hybrid does Rog. Or I'm sure mine did - although that was purchased more than 4 years ago.

Well it won't be just a case of strapping the turbo to it, iv got jimo's full spec basically. His downpipe and exhaust, his greddy, his evo fmic even his induction kit so shouldn't be too bad. I have a gtec2 ready for flea to map over it on the 31st. I'm not bothered if I don't make 300 bhp I'm only after 280 anyway if I get 290 bonus but I'm not bothered aslong as its over 275 I will be peased.

would you get up to 280bhp on a 55trim compressor wheel and would cutback turbine blades not cause the turbo to spool up slower but allow more at the top end

MD238 High flow T28 - 60 Trim Compressor wheel, C.N.C. re-profiled compressor housing, modified bearing housing, 360 degree thrust bearing, left hand thread shaft & wheel assembly fitted with “staggered gap” total seal piston ring. Uprated actuator – optional. Recommended maximum boost level is 20-22 P.S.I. Approx 300
options include 1.Ported wastegate 2.Uprated large poppet valve 3.Cut back turbine blades 4.Uprated actuators 5.Uprated actuator brackets 6.Modified compressor inlet duct. Roller bearing turbo can be mad with similar specs MD378 High flow T28 - 60 Trim Compressor wheel, 0.60 A/R T28 compressor housing, roller bearing GT series core assembly, T25 – 62 trim left hand thread shaft & wheel assembly fitted with “Hi Temp” piston ring seal, 0.64 A/R turbine housing. Uprated actuator – optional. Recommended maximum boost level is 22-24 P.S.I. Approx 330
GT28R/RS/RSR probably cheaper though unless you are rebuilding an old turbo. oh and super spool is MD370 High flow T28 - 55 Trim Compressor wheel, C.N.C. re-profiled compressor housing, modified bearing housing, 360 degree thrust bearing, left hand thread shaft & wheel assembly fitted with “staggered gap” total seal piston ring, cutback turbine blades Uprated actuator – optional. Recommended maximum boost level is 18-20 P.S.I. Approx 280

Thank god for that, I thought I was going mad I remember talking to one of the guys at TD and he said something about cutting the turbine blades to reduce spool up. Mine was the first superspool though Rog, they may have changed the design now ?

would have thought cutting back the turbine blades would increase lag as it allows more air to flow though by reducing surface area

Not sure, maybe less mass on the turbine will give you a faster spool, I guess it depends on exactly what they are cutting back ? Which is what Rog just said

so in theory you could trim the wheel and it would spool up just the same as an untrimmed wheel and still have the bonus of flowing more air at the top end
