Scarles Turbo manufacturer??


Recommended Posts

Hi guys

Just a FYI if you are interested.

Have had a little bit of time to kill at work and have been looking into the Scarles turbo i have sitting in the garage at home trying to find as much info as possible about it. Theres not really much out there but think i have found something.

After a bit of digging on the web I was able to find something that resembles pretty much what i have.

The part number matches exactly. The only difference was that the one i have has Scarles branded on it.

Also the specs seem to match, below and what was advertised on the Scarles website

From what I've read, some people have had mixed results with these units, mainly bad though. For example only lasting 2500 miles before crapping itself but another saying they've had it for a year with no issues. These reviews were from around 2010 onwards so I'm not sure if the quality of the turbo has improved since.

One guy from Taiwan who posted on Nasioc has had an ok result with one

His reason for getting one was that they were locally made and he could get them for really cheap so wanted to test and see how good they were.

Here's another result he got on a Virtual Dyno

He also mentioned that the same turbo was sold under 3 brands - KAMAK, ZAGE and CHSH and all 3 are Taiwan based companies.

Interesting what Google can come up with when you have a bit of a dig around.....i was able to download a product catalogue too

So are you going to use it?

Not sure, thinking of selling it for what i bought it for and putting the money towards another turbo. Have been in touch with Murch about getting something built. Wonder if he can work his majic on it and make it a better unit than what it is at the moment???

Yep, the posted dyno plots are from a 2.5

The whole same as routine hearkens back to the "tomei headers are the same as kamak ones just more expensive". Facts on the web are not always truth.

The Tomei headers are 100% the SSI ones. They even have SSI cast into the flanges just in between the runners....

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
