Hey Guys,

I just bought myself an 95 R33 GTS-T. and I was wondering how much power do these cars have stock (est),

I have bought and installed and ARC intercooler and Blitz Bov and Air inducts, I dont have any boost controllers or guages, how do I know how much boost its running and what is stock boost?

Sorry if Im asking any stupid questions, its my first Turbo car and Ive always owned V8's so I havn't had any dealings with Turbos.

Your help would be very much appreciated.

Dead stock about 155rwkw.

You do have a boost gauge! Its in the instrument cluster (the +7/-7 gauge).

Stock boost is 5psi at low stage and 8psi at high stage.

depends what dyno but I reckon more like 130-135rwkw. Remember 187 or 184 flywheel kw. Budget on 25-30% loss through drivetrain..

The stock comp is crap if you raise boost or add intercooler. Factor in Powerfc or at a minimum an AFM bender (SAFC) and you will get the gain from the mods..otherwise don't bother with any more than a couple of psi boost increase and exhaust. At 9-10psi you are at the border of rich and retard so may be dont even bother..

I had one 3 years ago and it made 132rwkw with cat back exhaust.Otherwise stock.

Well 140rwkw is a 25% loss through drivetrain so I wouldn't expect any better than that.

All depends on the dyno but 135rwkw on a REALISTIC dyno is about the figure.

In a motor mag the astra turbo dynod at 100wkw when it has 147kw, sportivo about 88kw (flywheel 141kw).

I would expect you would lose around 50kw or more...

isn't 150rwkw more likely a stock series 2 figure? I reckon more like 135-140 stock.

Series 1 and 2 will have about the same rwkw. They both have same engine management and engines. Same turbo as well (some may have nylon compressor wheel for quicker spool but no difference in size)..only difference is the coils, series 2 have inbuilt ignitors.

All depends on condition of engine..

    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
