RB26 Development is BACK!
It’s taken some time with our expanding product range, but after plenty of persuasion from many of you, and from the likes of Herman at Platinum Racing Products, we got back to work in early 2025 to revisit the mighty RB26.
We’ve got a full suite of products either released or currently in development for this colossus of a platform. With development based in Sydney, Australia, and access to a strong network of some of the best GT-R and RB builders in the world, we’re fortunate to work closely with those at the top of the industry.
That direct feedback ensures we’re building what serious workshops actually need to meet their customers’ requirements.
A special thanks goes to Alex and the team at Birrong Automotive for being directly involved in the testing of many of the upcoming RB products.
We’ll soon begin releasing detailed testing videos on our YouTube channel, showcasing the development behind this new range so make sure you’re subscribed if you haven’t already.
For now, here’s a preview of what’s coming:
🟠 ARTEC RB26DETT Direct-Fit Exhaust Manifolds
🟠 ARTEC RB26DETT Polished Heat Shields (to suit ARTEC manifolds)
🟠 Spectrum Motorsport RB26 Replacement Turbos
🟠 ARTEC RB26DETT Big Bore Downpipes
🟠 ARTEC RB26DETT Twin 3.5” to 3.5” Front Pipe
🟠 ARTEC RB High-Clearance Polished Stainless Engine Mount Bracket (Prototype)
🟠 ARTEC RB26DETT High-Flow Air Intake Pipes
We will be sharing more technical details regarding the parts above in the following weeks!

💥 Latest development results for the ARTEC x @garrettmotion Turbo Package for the Toyota G16E Platform 💥
We first started track testing our turbocharger 3 years ago at World Time Attach Challenge and for the past 12 months the kit has been running flawlessly with tuners, workshops and customers worldwide, consistently delivering a reliable 350–400+ horsepower! (Full dyno sheets and build breakdowns available at )
In our latest testing, we’ve now achieved 415hp at the hubs on: ✅ Factory ECU (Tuned with ECUTEK Software) ✅ Factory fuel system (with water/meth)
✅ Factory bottom end ✅ Factory cylinder head (with drop in cams and springs) ✅ Factory intake manifold
Keeping development focused around OEM components has always been a priority for us so that our customers can build something quick, capable and reliable while keeping costs and complexity down.
The ARTEC Sport 400 is the world’s first and ONLY bolt-on, stock-frame turbo for the G16E platform using a GENUINE Garrett Motion CHRA.
🔧 100% original design built around the G25-550 CHRA 🚫 Nothing copied from the factory turbo ⚙️ A true ground-up engineered solution, unlike anything else on the market
Tested on the circuit, drag strip and dyno, the G16E platform continues to prove itself as one of Toyota’s best modern engines, and we’re not done yet.
You’ve already seen the SPORT 4XXS teaser…Next up: SPORT 500 👀 Coming soon.
Day 1 of @myprishow is done!
Thanks to everyone who came to visit us and see our new products at booth #2543
One of our most popular products was our new Toyota 2JZ GTE Twin Turbo Kit! The twin cast stainless dump pipes are also now finished which were not completed in our initial release photos 👌
Bring on Day 2! We hope to see even more of you!

R34 KP700 — signed off on the dyno today. 🔥
Built with one goal in mind: a properly sorted street-driven single turbo RB26 with instant response, brutal midrange, and real top-end power.
This was never meant to be a bloated dyno-number build.
This was about putting together the right package to make a 2.6L RB26 deliver hard, usable power from the midrange all the way to 9000rpm.
The result:
625whp on 95 RON pump fuel
727whp on E70
Under 2 bar of boost
That is serious performance from a small-frame turbo setup.
The brief from the customer was clear:
A 700whp-capable package with quick spool, strong midrange, and proper drivability.
So we kept the combo smart, not excessive.
One of the biggest challenges was making this car work properly on 95 RON pump gas while also delivering on a flex fuel calibration. To make that happen, we loaded the MoTeC M130 with all the necessary support sensors and full engine safety strategies, giving us the confidence to extract maximum performance without stepping beyond safe limits.
The turbo selection with Artec Performance was exactly where it needed to be.
Highly efficient on pump fuel, yet still capable of carrying this setup past 700whp on ethanol.
And the best part?
This thing comes alive at 4500rpm and pulls clean and hard all the way to 9000rpm.
That is a 4500rpm-wide powerband. In a manual car, once you grab the next gear and get back on throttle, boost is right there again.
That is what makes this build special.
Not a 2000whp trailer queen.
Not a spec-sheet hero.
Just a properly engineered R34 that is built to drive hard, feel alive, and break hearts on the street.

MORE details on our NEW ARTEC RB26 Hi Flow Turbo Manifolds 🔥
Not many would know, but the first fully cast and machined one piece manifold ARTEC made was our original RB26 DETT manifolds in 2014.
At that time, we had spent an extensive amount of effort designing, flowing and testing those units before putting them on the market. After selling them for some time, they were discontinued due to us feeling that they weren’t the best they could be anymore.
Fast forward to 2026, and after years of research and development, we are pleased to announce that they are finally BACK! We are now confident that these are the BEST direct fit, stock frame manifolds we could come up with using everything that we have learnt over the years.
We initially teased these manifolds on our display at last years PRI show in Indianapolis, but we didn’t actually show the production units off as we didn’t want to let our new formed metal heatshields out of the bag. One of the design constraints with the OEM turbo manifolds is the retention of the heat shield mounts. These are great for holding the OEM heat shield but when you are doing an all out build and want to show off your engine bay, those crusty heatshields can be a downer.
Some people like to coat their manifolds and show them off, some like to cover them up, and some like a fresh OEM appearance. We went a little further than what others might do, we have created new formed heatshields that will be optional and available in Polished STAINLESS STEEL or Polished TITANIUM! ✨
Other finishes are in the works, but for now here is a little teaser of what you can expect. Let us know in the comments what your style is or if there is a specific finish you would be interested in!
MORE exciting RB products to be released shortly!

💥 800HP. 2.0L. SR20. 💥
Featuring a @turbosmarthq 6466 mounted to the new @artecperformance SR20 High Flow V-Band manifold 🔥
A great job by @birrong_automotive and a huge result from a standard stroke 2.0L SR20, with insanely improved response for @kng20l street-driven S15❗️

The final pieces of the puzzle have clicked into place, and the path is now clear for us to begin testing and tuning.
We are standing on the threshold of something truly special. Although a brief logistics delay has held up our sponsor decals, they will be proudly displayed on the car the moment they land.
This journey wouldn’t be possible without the elite group of companies that have chosen to back this program; I am deeply honored by their belief in our vision and their commitment to pushing the limits alongside us.
