http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/35...pe-t221677.html Posted that ages ago. Its not really a Civic at the end of the day, Civic in disguise. Tell me about it... When I was on my way from yesterday after the tune, along Pineland Rd was an turbo eg that goes pss pss at me... *shakes head*

SG = Singapore... Just like how AU = Australia in the com.au format. If its dori... s15 or rx7 !!! Sleek-ness FTW but 180 are nice too.

If its really all about speed... I'm sure that civic that slaughtered the 35gtr in SG would be in your list.

Something else I found when looking at HKS dumps. After market dumps like HKS or Tomei has the same part number for 32/33 and in some cases (HKS) 34 as well. The only difference between 32/33 and 34 is the extra O2 sensor which is specific to 34 vspec (according to HKS, called supplier up) but Tomei for some reason have the same part number for 34 and 34vspec. They should just be bolt on mods in anycase.

Thristian? He's not even RB anymore!

Good Job! Nice to see that you're here Brent. Anyone who wants a Cube should go to him, top bloke. Oh yea, I called you yesterday to check if the N1 still has the N1 turbos on them as I was tuning them over 1bar. I'm sure they are but just want to make sure before I blew the engine with ceramic dust.

Me and Shannon (the white 33gtr that came on the first day)

Megan??

Maybe another 2-4psi? Anyway I agree its all dependant on a whole lot of other factors what I think might not be true as well but for sure it will be higher than what it is now. The question is should I correct it or should I just leave it. I figured I'll leave it for now.

Boost VS Power Graph And I thought the factory was 0.8bar. lolz. Anyway case closed, until the disease relapse.

Yea I dont believe its restriction either. More of the boost controller kit's issue (since reading about apexi boost controllers). Maybe it'll pays running on 2wheel dyno. Only problem is whats involved in running a 33 on 2wheel as I've heard 33 and 34 isnt as easy as pulling the fuse out like 32s. In any case the 10-15% varies and according to the tuner, what he noticed over the years its about right to assume 10% loss. I might bring it to Matt Spry if I do get it tuned the next time which I doubt. If injectors are running 90% and I'll be pushing a it more for that little gain, not worth it. And if I decided to buy bigger injectors, the mod disease will hit me again "hmmm bigger injectors hmmm maybe I should get cams afm and run higher power and why waste the bigger injectors running lower duty"... its a never ending process which I dont want it to happen... =x

Yea sure is. According to a few it can be between 10-15% drivetrain loss. And of course like you've said more boost = more power. I've seen it rise from stock to where is it now so I dare say it should be another 10-20awkw increase if it can hold the boost.

Yea he tried different timing but could get it to hold and decided to keep it at 1.15 and fine tune it.

Well he mentioned about restriction on wastegate and dumps but I think thats only part of the problem. The other would probably be the boost controller kit I reckon. With the pfc boost controller kit you cant really tweek much according to him but thats the choice I made by not having any display in the interior. He mention its running at 90% duty which means its quite safe for now and if I do change injectors, I would be doing a whole lot of other things so maybe I'll just stop here and have suspension and clutch next on the list. Another thing is the dyno is 4 wheel so maybe all these while the 300kw I had in mind was rwkw and not awkw. And if the boost does hold at 1.2 instead of 1.15, that may well be another 20awkw increase? Anyway I'll leave it for now with that fact that the car is way more responsive and I'm happy with that. Looking at the dyno results I cant help but notice the initial power was only 220awhp which means its only 165awkw. Thats no where near to the 206 or even 200kw they were advertised for. But if you multiple that by 1.15, that will give you 190awkw. which still isnt as bad. I'm gonna call Gavin up and see if I can get the Boost graph as well. Will post it up when I get it.

lolz. Ok. Will keep that in mind the next time. But I'm pretty happy as it is now but we'll see what happens down the track. Thanks for the info.

He reckon its restriction. Or maybe injectors (he's not comfortable running higher than 90%). Or might be the boost controller (I've heard the kit doest hold boost very well after 20psi)

If I'm ever gonna get it tuned again, I'll try Matt Spry. Both Gavin and Matt gave me a good impression when I called comparing to the others.

Gavin Woods @ Autotech. Shit loads of GTRs... oh and 1 Tommy Kaira 32 (dont know real or not)

Ok, the list is as below 1) Trust Ti-R exhaust 2) HKS Front Pipe 3) Apexi Power FC 4) Apexi Boost Controller Kit Thats all. Everything else is stock. 1.15bar I think (on the pfc hc). Cant get it to hold 1.2bar. No engine mods. Injectors are max at 90%.

Maybe all these while the 300kw I had in mind was rw not aw. But the fact that the car feels lighter/smoother really surprises me. 1st gear used to hit limiter at 60-70km/h now it goes up to 80+. Amazed.

BUGGA! Went for the tune today and made 255awkw... I wonder whats the difference between rwkw and awkw... =( But the car feels soooo much smoother now.

The truth is out... Sadly it made 340hp at all 4 and thats 255awkw. Will post the graph up tomorrow when I've scanned it. Injectors were around 90% so I guess its a really safe tune. Overall although it didnt make what I expected, I'm happy with the response. Its way smoother to drive now.

Maybe I should dropby EFI and check your car out when I'm coming back from the coast tomorrow... lolz.

Ok. Just called them up again and he said 34Vspec ones have an extra O2 sensor than the other models and thats the only difference. So I guess a bung plug for a few bucks will do the trick of sealing that up. Not sure about stock ones though.

Shan: Found it!!!!! Looks like I did pay a good price for.
