[stormgreysupra]

Hello Everyone,

This thread is about Remnant Performance’s upcoming Omega 65 Turbo kit which will be the go to stock location kit for this platform resulting from it’s price to value, power capability, and quality.

I will be posting more updates about the release and data about testing.

Detailed write up from the man himself:

Lets be real, this shit never coming out.

The CTS turbo took way longer to release, but eventually it did. It's also garbage. Remnant has excellent reputation in the Genesis community with their turbo kits so I still have very high hopes for this.

Every step of the company's R&D effort is publicly available on Instagram, setbacks and all. It's remarkably candid. But people that can't be bothered to look still show up in these threads to invent timelines or promises that were never made. It's bewildering to me. What's the point?

Am I a loyalist? Yes. I have their kit and 70mm CBB turbo on another platform and the fitment was fantastic. It's made great power. It's also been some of the best customer service I've had from, quite literally, any company I've ever purchased from. Yeah, the development has taken a lot longer than I wanted and the reasons are well-documented, but they've proven to me it's worth waiting for. I'm in no hurry.

We are responding to people here that have stated "next week" for the last year. "Next week" has also become sort of a Supra Meme overall now because a lot of people have been making that statement across the landscape.

I have nothing against Remnant whatsoever. I hope the kit is killer. I am merely responding to people on the forum over hyping things before things are even out (that worked well for the CTS turbo right?) and stating it's coming next week for the last year+

i have to admit I did overhype CTS before it came out but I had messages from the owner saying next week and just a coulple more weeks which turned into a year later. They never had a good reputation for their turbos so hindsight I’m not surprised their Supra kit is no different.

On the other hand Remnant turbos have excellent reputation already so I think there is no way their kit won’t live up to the hype.

What kind of power did it make? Care to share the dyno? This was for the Gen Coup correct?

What kind of power did it make? Care to share the dyno? This was for the Gen Coup correct?

Yeah, I'll share the dyno. Not a problem at all! It made 515WHP/444WTQ SAE on E30 @ 10 PSI. Dynapack hub dyno. Blue line was the winning run at 10.2 PSI, red was our "tried and true" baseline around 8 pounds.

My car is currently the stock block WR holder for the V6 version of the Genesis Coupe. Stock power is around 340 crank, 280 wheel.

The car is GDI and maxed out on fuel, and there are presently no options for supplemental port injection. But it's 11.5:1 CR with 3.8L displacement and was gaining about 25-30WHP per pound of boost as we got the turbo into its efficiency range. Was a fun day and we learned a lot about the motor. I wish we could've gone harder, but I'm at the theoretical limit of the block and valve train and definitely at the fuel limit. I'd like to come back again in a year or two with a built motor and a custom PI setup.

Let me know if this picture is readable. It's the one I could find quickly on my phone, but I have more kicking around when I get to a computer.

People have tried other turbos on this car: PT6266, On3 Performance 70mm CBB, various Garret GTX, but this Remnant Performance turbo beat the #2 record by ~50WHP and spooled several hundred RPM sooner. That makes sense, though, since the RP 70mm (and all Omega) uses the ODM design that also underpins the Garret G series, which we're all familiar with. Quick spool, efficient, good power.

I recognize this is not a lot of power by Supra standards, but it's groundbreaking for the Genesis community. There's a small group of us still hammering away on the platform and trying to find its limits, and there's been a radical amount of innovation for it in the last ~2 years. The ECU is goofy, we don't have good definition files, there's no port injection and, until Remnant Performance came along, the tuning was absolutely dreadful. So were the turbo kits and options. Remnant Performance single-handedly transformed the scene for my Genesis and ushered in an entirely new era of performance and power. Cars that used to explode on less than 5 PSI are now doing double that with performance levels that would be unimaginable pre-COVID.

I'm such a diehard for Remnant Performance because they radically altered how much it cost to go turbo, and what kind of power you could expect. I would go so far as to say they rescued the platform from total obscurity and triggered a whole new wave of R&D that's very exciting. Many of the mods we see on Supra are coming to Genesis now, a full 6 years after the last model rolled off the line. Just some context to help folks understand what's going on with another car, and why I'm so excited about them putting together stuff for the Supra. They proved themselves to me already.

Test conditions: 91°F, 70% humidity, 900ft elevation, ~3500ft DA.

So I should check back next week and CTS turbo is no good
