R32

[Bo0oSt]

Hey guys i just bought a R32 GTST and interms of engine mods it has a 3inch turbo back exhaust, a Cold Air Intake, a 500hp Boch fuel pump and a BOV. These mods were already on the car so i was wondering what the nxt step would be interms of reachin 180rwkw......

could anyone tell me what coil packs do and if they would give ma a bit of power and yeh what the nxt steps i shoudl be takin were...oh and by the way im not prepared ot buy a bigger turbo or a another ecu atm so yeh jus pov mods at the moment lol

thanks

Daniel

hi mate congrats on the purchase, all i can think of is a front mount and a boost control i'm in the same boat not prepared on getting a bigger turbo just yet, my line is pretty much same as your as mods go apart from fuel pump, not so sure bout the coil packs i'd ho;d back on them until you upgrade your turbo, i'm planning on getting a adjustable fuel pressure regulater and a bosch 044 fuel pump soon and i think that will do me for awhile until i saved enough for bigger turbo,

you sure your gonna require a 044?

thats pretty big, and damn noisy, oh and external aswell.

have a run through here

see what they have and how much power they got.

congrats on teh purchase!

- firstly give it a service: oil, oil filter, coolant, spark plugs, fuel filter, oxygen sensor

- then, put it on the dyno for an hour and get the tuner to see how healthy the engine is. they can also play around with your timing to get the most out of what you have got. plus you will get a power figure to see what the car is making

What are coil packs you ask?

they are coils within a little plastic pack that sit over the spark plugs. there's one over each spark plug. they generate a signal when instructed to do so, and pass this to the spark plug which creates a spark to ignite the fuel.

Will putting bigger coils generate more power?

Well it will generate a bigger spark, but this probably won't equate into much more power unfortunately

if you want to play around with the car a little more, i would suggest thinging of some of the following:

- front-mount intercooler ($300) and piping ($400)

- boost controller ($50) set to about 12psi (any more then 14psi can cause the turbo to fail)

That will give you a nice jump in power. they generally say 1psi raises power by 10kw when in the right setting (ie already have exhaust and intercooler)

good luck!

will only give a power increase if the current coils are not working.

Next step is a fmic, and unfortuately thats the end of the pov mods. Turbo, injectors and ecu are next.

You will need a turbo to make 180 as the stocker doesn't like to play much past 160 odd. An rb25 turbo will do it though and they are cheap enough.

fmic and 14psi boost should see close to 165-170rwkw if you are willing to test that sort of boost on stock turbo..

a few people have..

i think both roy and cubes ran this sort of boost on stock turbo and it didn't break..

no guarantees though..

180rwkw is not going to happen with stock turbo.

fmic kit from JUST JAP will set you back $500 or so.. see traders for sale section.

Dr Drift can also do retuned Stock ECU for about $400 or so I think.

now.. you say you don't want to change turbo but considering an Rb25 turbo will cost you like $350 these days, it's cheaper than both the above bits, but they are ALL needed for the 180rwkw you are after.

Read the sticky thread

It has all the links for where you should start, and what you should do

cheers

thanks heaps...i do have a boost controller (sorry forgot to mention) i boosted to abotu 15psi and started to shyt myself abit so i turned it down to about 10 lol so i decided to do what u guys said and look at a 33 turbo and yeh its onlly about 300 bux anyone know about how mani kws u can get out of it and how much boost it can handle ?

And as for the front mount ive been looking and alot of them, theres heaps of copy ones out there and they all claim to do the same as the hybrid ones but like yeh not too sure about that Im thinkin i should just hold out for a lil while, not settle of crap, go for quality and buy the Hybrid 600mm yeh ?

cheers

oh and i knwo this isnt the place to post it but im afta a new steerin wheel so if ne1 got one and lives in melb let me know...cheers ( again sorry about postin this in here)

[TTT]

hybrid copies are fine.

they are all the same except that HYBRID have plastered their name on the core.. it's the same core as the non marked ones, and comes from the same factory.

it'll do the job and do it well.

r33 turbo will make around 170-190 rwkw on about 13-14psi on an RB20 depending on dyno.
