Hybrid turbos

[con67]

If you want a Hybrid id be looking at something like the ones JP had made but TBH Id be talking about getting it done custom to your own spec with a turbo maker. Maybe even get a small Holset put together.

VNT is in an interesting conundrum as essentially the issues are around controlling it. Ruan (who is a massive geek) has struggled with making the electronic controller that there is designs for on the internet. Any mechanical control appears to be flawed for a variety of reasons.

Im looking at flipping my VNT to boost actuator possibly with a ball and spring valve in the feed line to stop it moving till a certain PSi. Ive got a T2 actuator sitting here that I need to put on a jig to measure boost vs travel so I know where to set it to start (and if it even has enough travel or Im gonna need to alter lever ratios.

My VNT is a GT2359V off a Merc 320CDi

I've gathered up near enough everything needed to have a go at this using a vag edc15 ecu, loom, ecu, all sensors etc etc. Even got a few vag gt17 turbos but would love that gt23, its very underated although i'll probably end up with a 2260 because they're more common, how much was it?
