i am really surprised stel that your car was running leaner rather than richer...  every line i know that just has boltons it richens up like no tomorrow did you have a bigger turbo or something ???

Standard turbo at the moment.

The car may have had some work done to it before i bought it and was brought back to basically standard, when we installed the SAFC the wires were already cut for an SAFC. I know the guy that owned the car before me so i might give him a call and ask him.

I was impressed with the result myself....

welcome to the world of skylines and fuel consumption, I can get 400k's if i realy realy watch my foot, but normaly 300 mark.

LOL. It is still a step up from my old car. 250km to a 65litre tank. And thats if I was trying to drive econimically.

Here's a link to the Blitz R-Fit. I still haven't had any feedback from anyone using it as yet. It looks pretty similar in features to the SAFC. However I do know a guy with a 180 that is about to get his installed and tuned so I'll let you guys know how it goes.

Sorry to dig up a really old thread but wanted to ask a few questions.

I managed to score myself a black SAFC2 from a guy on another forum, and it almost time to get it tuned somewhere. I am going to install it myself but wondering where fellow skyliners with SAFC's will recommend.

So for those of you who do have an SAFC, who installed it and how much was the install? Did you get dyno runs before and after or just afterwards?

I installed it myself, dead easy really.

Then took it to Ben at intune to get the tune done. He dyno'd it before and after, gained like 10kw accross the rev range and the beast uses much less fuel!

How much was the tuning of it Justin? I rang ESP and Trojan last week and both gave me around the same sort of price for install and tune. I have been recommeneded Autotech but they quoted me an outrageously high price for install tuning of it.

I have since decided to install myself, so I just want a tune done now.

Also does anyone know what dyno Trojan uses?

      Ball bearing turbos

      The cross sectional area of a circular hole scales with the square of diameter. So a 2mm diameter hole is 4x the area of a 1mm hole. Not double. The 1.7mm hole is nearly 3x the area of a 1mm hole. You do not need restrictors at both ends of the oil supply line. If you have new, additional restrictors at the turbo end, that you did not have before, then you do not need a restrictor at the inlet end.

      Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist

      Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.

      Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
