Bit generic question... starting = 1psi?

Also depends on mods too, a full exhaust will spool up a turbo quicker than a standard exhaust... more boost = earlier boost too...

If the car is dead standard or say just a cat-back id say that would be fairly close to right... maybe a few psi before 3,500rpm in 2nd but nothing too noticeable if its standard

Yeah, car is stock :P Thanks for your help.

I'm think about getting a turbo back zorst. Is there a lot of gain by doing the dumps? or should i just spend the money towards a PFC?

I'm choosing between a PFC & microtech. Ive been told to go with microtech because it is more flexible as you do more mods but i'm not chasing huge power, just lots of response as this is more a street car. I've read on this forum that PFC is really good for what i want to do (zorst, boost up, PFC & tune). Which way should i go? any one had any experiences with both setups? What kind of power would this set up give me?

Also, is there any point in going a brand name zorst like blitz? To me, a pipe is a pipe & don't really care about minor power differences. I think the money you save can be spent on other mods which will give more bang for the buck, like a PFC.

Lastly, where can i buy the $22 boost contoller from? is 14psi really pushing the stockies?

Sorry about the long post :(

There is alot of hp to gain from doing a turbo-back exhaust system and Id look at that before you consider management! If your still not happy then throw on a boost controller for 1bar with a front mounted intercooler kit. Still not happy then go the power fc and tune, and maybe an rb25 turbo charger as its slightly bigger!

Does a 32GTR has a FMIC and it should be fine for the power i'm chasing. Also, bolt a rb25 turbo? just 1 of them? i was thinking something like 34 N1s or 2530s. but new turbos are a long way off atm. Can't justify the price.

The straight line performance is already getting dull but when i take the puppy around corners, even stock power is a lot to handle.

Thanks for pointing that out! I swear it didnt say GTR in the title before... lol

Yes i was refering to a GTST, GTR with a full exhaust and boost up with give you plenty of fun times :(

Is it worth it getting a brand name zorst? they are quite expensive & imo just a pipe like any other pipe. I've been quoted a full stainless zorst from turbo back (no dumps) for $900 for a workshop. Does this sound right? Also, what factors determine a good quality zorst?

I personally dont think its worth going a brand name exhaust, if hes said turbo back without dumps... well its not turbo(s) back then lol

Have a look on the forums for gtr exhaut bits, get yourself some dumps, front pipes, cat and a nice large (3.5') cat-back exhaust!

How much difference do dumps make? i'm thinking of not doing it as the turbos have to come off.

Will bring your spooling time right down with some good hi-flowing dumps...

If your changing the turbo's fairly soon then maybe you should do the dumps when you so them, but your exhaust is only as good as its least flowing part!

I was thinking of changing from the front pipes & leave the dumps on until new turbos are on. Will there be much improvement with this set up? or should i do the dumps now as well

Id say fronts + cat + cat-back exhaust would be a 40-50rwhp difference? So your going to notice a shit load more power outta the rb26! Personally, those twin HKS style dumps are goin fairly cheap on the forum... id probably just grab some while your doing the rest

    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
