I can understand the need for an accurate inlet temp sensor. After my upgrade I was horified to see that my inlet temps (showing on the PFC) were consistantly around 25C higher than ambient (50C on a 25C day). What I did notice, however, is that the IC outlet was cold/ambient to touch and that the inlet temperature readings on the PFC hardly varied.

In reality I suspect that what I'm really measuring is the temperature of the plenum wall (nicely heated by the engine radiant heat) rather than the intercooled air passing throuh it.

Where do you place the aftermarket inlet temp probe?

Between the plenumn and the pipe that feeds from the inner guard. I set it up so the tip is in the centre of the pipe and does not come into contact with the pipe wall or plenumn wall. Ive always had the thought that the std probe is affected by heat soak.

OK people.....its time to guess what power its going to make....

only changes are HKS 2530's > HKS GT-RS and a HKS ignition amplifier.

it made 443 AWKW previous on this same dyno.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say.... it will be MORE than 443AWKW! :thumbsup:

..actually I'll be very interested to hear how much difference there is in lag Paul. I know this won't be too much of an issue for you since you're primarily drag racing.

I am having a RB26/30 built and have been told the 2530's might be a bit small, and to go for the GT-RS. In fact, they say that the 2530's would "limit me" to about 600hp. But with 443awkw, it sounds like you are proving the 2530's can go more. A lot more.. wouldn't that be around 700 flywheel hp or more?

Hmm my guess is 485 awkw :unsure:

so how's it going??? :rofl: hopefully ~500kw+

the JD's going down nicely thanks :P

unfortunately no news yet.......(no news is always good news with CRD). It's hard to be so far away. I wish I was there. I hope nothing goes wrong. I feel like I'm waiting for a baby to be born. :D

I think ONE of the users logged on right now might win the guessing comp!

Was that me? If so :D

After the 443 4wkw with 2530s' I am not so sure I can guess it.

The race brew makes the numbers somewhat unpredictable.

The raw maths say 550 4wkw.

So I will throw that in as my best guess.

Good luck guys, we have a Friday drinks rule

One JD for every 100 horsepower

So you better get started.

:P cheers :rofl:

PS; the boys get all excited when we stick a blown 7 litre on the dyno, it means plenty of beers for them

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      By Duncan · Posted

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
