"Confident that with the bigger housing, 2500+ should be no problem!"

We have a New World Record for highest WHP VK56! Jon Rogers has become known in the stick-shift drag racing world for pushing import drag platforms well past conventional limits, moving from SR20 and 2JZ's into one of the wildest VK56-powered builds out right now. His VK56 program has helped put the platform on the map as a legitimate big-power alternative, so we are proud to see Jon make the switch over to the new GXR Series of Garrett turbos: the G-XRace GXR57-98 98.9mm.

The car just made 2321 WHP at 51 psi and 2260 WHP at 47 psi. As Jon said, “We could tell we had hit the zone where back pressure wasn’t happy and it was falling off up top. We had a larger 1.41 turbine housing with us but ran out of time... confident that with the bigger housing, 2500+ should be no problem!”

Jon’s Nissan 5.6L VK56 platform uses a factory aluminum block, stock sleeves, and original factory crankshaft, and is methanol-fed. Inside, the engine uses custom forged pistons and heavy-duty connecting rods, paired with HeadGames pocket-ported factory cylinder heads, Kelford cams, GSC valvetrain, a stainless fuel hoop, and copper head gaskets.

Boost now comes from a Garrett G-XRace GXR57-98 98.9mm turbocharger, giving this high-revving VK56 the airflow capacity, pressure-ratio capability, and high-flow efficiency needed for the new horsepower figures. A Ross Performance dry sump oiling system supports oil control, while the Haltech Nexus R5 VCU handles engine management through a universal wiring harness. 🏁🚗💨

328.285 mph (528 Km/h) on the salt! Ryan Boyle and the team reset the C/DS streamliner record at the Bonneville Salt Flats, pushing 'Thunder in the Morning' to an official timed speed of 328.285 mph and adding another major chapter to their diesel land speed story.

This diesel streamliner is powered by a 5.9L Cummins and a compound Garrett turbo setup, using an 85mm GTX5533R Gen II high-pressure turbo hidden behind a massive 102mm Garrett G57-2750 atmospheric turbo. The combination is built for the kind of sustained full-load abuse that land speed racing demands, where airflow, boost control, charge-air cooling, and reliability all have to work together for miles at wide open throttle. 🏁🚗💨

We thought the speedometer just wasn't going to stop...

pushed the "LandSpeedScaping" truck to a GPS speed of 263 mph, with an official timed speed of 262.412 mph at Bonneville Speed Week, setting a new benchmark for the world’s fastest mini/midsize truck.

This is not a hypercar with active aero or a massive tire package. It is a 90's Toyota Hilux fighting the salt with 1400+ horsepower, no aero, no traction control, 4.5-inch wide slicks, manifold and a 3.2L Dart Machinery Iron Eagle 2JZ-GTE fed by a Garrett G47-1850 and controlled by a GVW50 wastegate. (Same turbo and wastegates on it since last year's run!)

On the salt, traction is constantly changing, the surface is unforgiving, and going truly fast takes more power. For , the Garrett G47-1850 provides the airflow capacity, turbine efficiency, and high-horsepower headroom needed to help push this brick-shaped truck into record-setting territory. 🏁🚗💨

’s FD RX-7 makes the best noises with its 3-rotor bridgeport 20B and Garrett G42-1450 feeding the setup.

The large-frame Garrett G42-1450 gives the rotary the airflow capacity and top-end headroom needed for big power. With the new G-Series II G42-1585 79mm CHRA, existing G42-1450 79mm users now have a direct upgrade path designed to support even more compressor flow while retaining their Series I end housings.

That means builders can upgrade from a G42-1450 79mm to a G42-1585 79mm Series II CHRA without reworking the full turbo system, helping increase power potential while keeping packaging, charge piping, and turbine housing fitment more straightforward. 🏁🚗💨

🚗:

✅ G42-1450 79mm is the modern turbo upgrade to Garrett GTX4508R and other 7685-style turbos
✅ G-Series II CHRAs are interchangeable with Series I end housings
✅ No charge pipe welding required when upgrading from Series I to Series II
✅ G-Series II supports up to 10% higher compressor flow compared to G-Series Gen I

Which would you pick? Both are LS Powered with a Garrett G42 setup: 772HP hood exit or 1200HP rear exhaust exit?

Cody Loveland’s C5 Corvette keeps things street-car wild on Vegas roads with a 6.0L V8 and Garrett G42-1200C "compact" turbo, putting down 772HP at just 8 PSI through a hood-exit setup that makes the turbo system impossible to miss. It may be a Compact, but still hard to keep it tucked under that C5 hood.

On the other side, the Enviate Hypercar Evo takes the G42 platform into full hill-climb prototype territory with a Steve Morris Engines 6.2L LS-R V8, Garrett G42-1450, rear-exit exhaust under the diffuser, Sadev sequential transmission, exposed carbon bodywork, and approximately 1200HP in its full-boost tune. 🏁🚗💨

🚗:

✅ G42-1200C is the modern turbo upgrade to Garrett GTX4202R and other 7275 turbos
✅ G42-1200C uses a 73mm compressor inducer and compact compressor housing for tighter packaging

✅ G42-1450 is the modern turbo upgrade to Garrett GTX4508R and other 7685 turbos

Factory Garrett journal-bearing ceramic twin turbos helped make the RB26DETT legendary, but this R32 GT-R is stepping into the modern G-Series era with a pair of Garrett G25-660s.

’s BNR32 just went through its first engine break-in tuning session at — and underneath, it’s running a properly freshened-up RB26 with an HKS Step 2 2.8L stroker kit, Step 2 VCAM, 272° cams, and a fully custom twin-turbo kit that puts the pair of Garrett G25-660s front and center.

For R32 GT-R owners looking beyond the original journal-bearing, ceramic turbochargers, the G25-660 is a modern Garrett upgrade that makes sense for a responsive twin-turbo RB26 setup. On this 2.8L stroker, the pair gives the engine the airflow, temperature capability, and headroom to reach big power numbers. Matthew is just breaking the car in and enjoying driving it with this setup, while still leaving room to grow once break-in is complete and final tuning begins. 🚗🔥
