Hi guys

I had a full 3" exhaust fitted today on an otherwise stock GTT.

BATMBL 3"split dump and front + big bodied stainless steel cat + cannon cat back with midmuffler/resonator.

First impression, loud! haha power wise, didnt feel that much of a difference, a tiny bit better but not like a 20-30rwkw gain. Boost increased by roughly 2psi from about 5000rpm onwards.

Anyways, I hadnt chucked my car on the dyno before so decided to give it a go. I know the R34 manual GTTs make roughly 140-150rwkw in stock form.

Put mine one, 163.5rwkw. Quite disappointing actually. I wanted to crack the 170 mark, I know all dynos etc are different etc etc. I thought my car woulda made 150rwkw stock, plus another 25 at least from the exhaust.

Here is the dyno sheet, what do you guys rekon?

Tuner recommended getting a FMIC as inlet temps were getting high.

Else he said everything is running fine (which is probably the best news).

Too much expectation with the exhaust, everyone was telling me how it would make a huge huge difference, hahaha ah well, the saga continues.

Thanks all!

163kw @ 25 PSI_g?

wat the hell?

please explain?

the power graph look nearly perfect?

very linear power.

U got POD?

i believe POD makes a different.

did u feel diferent with BATML dump?

i gona be instal BATML split dump in the weekend, and wana throw it onto dyno, c how much am geting,

interesting~!~

Oh so I am making 10psi with this setup? Fair enough then, no need for EBC or boost tap then haha

I know its a linear curve and all which is good for a stockish car. I dont have a pod, just a apexi panel filter. And I dont think Im making 25psi, I believe its 10? Correct me if I am wrong hahah And with regards to BATMBLs pipes, doesnt seem like it made much of a difference, maybe its just my setup but the 16rwkw claim for the dump pipe alone just doesnt add up with my sums.

I expected:

10-15 from the split dump

maybe 5-10 for the cat

and another 5-10 for the cat back.

So worst case should be a 20rwkw gain, best case, 30ish??

Yeah I wanted at least 20rwkw, goes to show that maybe an exhaust isnt what its all cracked up to be, I now find it hard how CES can claim to make 45rwkw on a S15 full exhaust.

No bleed valve no nothing, pretty much stock except for exhaust and apexi panel filter.

True, I should dynoed before, maybe the car wouldve only made 140kw, make this a gain of 23. The R34 HPI project car made 148 stock. Satanic's website mentions a R34 with only a catback and panel filter making 175! hahah ouch

i dont think the exhaust would make 25 kw extra.. maybe 10. That S15 might make a 45 kw gain on a full mod setup, turbo, ecu and supporting mods.

i fink the BATML claimed the new split dump front pipe and the new Hi-flow CAT with stainless steel inside claim 27kw increase for R32,

i am gona instal it in the weekend, on my r33

would be interesting to see wats the increase goin to be,

but i wont be dyno as stock, cos too much hassle, already got KnN and 3" from hks cat back.

got r34 intercooler and bleedvale on its way.

Either this one is a little low or my one is a little high... but my first dyno run was when the car was dead stock. Pulled 156rwkw which mind you is from an auto.

Stock manual should get what you are getting if not a bit more... on that same day there was a stock manual who pull about 165rwkw from memory.

Just my opinion don't mind me...

Gorgasm: from what it says here http://www.cesracing.com.au/Products/ it looks like 45rwkw on a stock S15 except for their full exhaust and pod filter. Maybe they respond better to exhaust mods coz perhaps their stock piping is very restrictive, and the R34 not as much. Maybe they didnt mention the other mods

Elushun: its a manual

Satanic: really? coz I saw a HPI DVD with a stock manual GTT, pulled 148rwkw.

ZXFIRE: Yeah the claims were for a R32, but seeing as a R34 has more power, I wouldve though that the gain would be more if anything. note: I have the split dump and that huge cat that flows at 706cfm.

Well the dyno reading that I got (156rwkw) was at a dyno day using a Dyno Dynamics dyno in Shootout mode.

As I said, I don't know whether your reading is a little sad or my one is a little happy.

Everyone else on the day seemed to get quite accurate readings though. Both Links and d00dz were also at this and can probably confirm :D

Whose dyno was that Stan?

There is definitely enough variation in dyno readings to account for what you got there. I got 162rwkw from full exhaust, panel filter and more boost. That's with big name parts too.

Putting a fmic on will on decrease response, you will not get any more power from it. I would go so far as to say that if I had my time again I wouldn't have put a front mount on until I upgraded the turbo. The r34 smic is bigger than the r33 one.

I don't think there is anything wrong with what you've got there unless that wierdness at the top there is not dyno operator induced.

It was the OCAU dyno day out at Dumar Automotive? From memory it was out near Berowra...

I'm still in touch with a few other guys from the day (TT Supra and Ford XR6 Turbo) and they are both getting consistent readings.

I'm confused now... I thought 156rwkw was quite good for a stock car :D

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
