Here's mine, I went through home at lunchtime so I e-mailed it to myself at work

The engine isn't in an R34, it's in an R31 but it's much of a muchness I guess.

Only mods are a full 3" mandrel exhaust from turbo back (non split dump) and high flow cat, Just Jap 600x300 FMIC and a Blitz pod. Stock boost and stock ECU.

It's pretty similar to yours, I wouldn't be worried that yours is weak or anything.

Was yours dyno'd in 4th gear?

You should have dynod car before you modified it, then you would no if you made any improvement, probably best not to shoot your mouth off as you have no idea what car made in stock form. if you are seeing an extra 2 pound of boost, the exhaust mod is clearly working. Put some boost in it and the dump pipe will come into its own.

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??

I heard somewhere that for every 1PSI of boost wound up; it works out to being 11rwkw more :)

I'm running 200rwkw on 7psi now; can't wait to wind it up to 18psi :)

As people have said, just crank up the boost!

Yes, it's an old thread, I know, I was looking for something else entirely (looking for dyno graphs from a certain workshop to compare with)

Anyway, I noticed on the first dyno graph that has been posted, the car has been run in the wrong shootout mode. This WILL affect your power read out.

The car should have been run in Shoot_6F, not Shoot_6.

This affects ramp rating, and internal measurements etc.

I didn't really wanna add to this topic since it's an old one, but how/why is the whole "should have been run in Shoot_6F, not Shoot_6" going to make such a difference, exactly? (without repeating the ramp rating etc - just a clearer answer)

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
