with what other mods?

i'm just gettin over the 200kw mark now and on 18psi

yet got a highflow myself.

nothing really - exhaust, pod, FMIC, clutch and fuel pump. (plus highflow and powerfc)

depends on what sort of highflow you got.. doubt it will be the same spec as a slide one

exhaust and all that stuff, basically the same as you, but a better turbo

How much power should his biggest one make Andy?

I have no idea, I am guessing a bit over 250rwkw

yeah i got the max size highflow (without going to a vg30 as he couldn't get one)..

i hope its not a lagmaster tho, i was after a nice punch but still retain drivablity.

Ahhh I see! The one I am talking about has the VG30 rear, It wont be laggy and the midrange is sweet

well allstar only has 2wd and i was in 4wd at salon

but i read 233KW at allstar in rwd and 208KW at salon in awd

That seems about right...That is very interesting, apparently the dyno I was on in Sydney reads the same as the Autosalon ones

well allstar only has 2wd and i was in 4wd at salon

but i read 233KW at allstar in rwd and 208KW at salon in awd

that power output would be right though, wouldnt it?

with the engine being able to put out more power with rear-wheel cause the all wheel drive system isnt suckin up any power?

Cool,

So the VG30 is bigger or smaller rear?

was funny coz a mate of mine got 270awkw with stock turbo's and a 5" straight through exhaust.. oh and 19psi on stock turbs

i'm only running 12.6psi wish i could run mine on 19

YOu could......for a few weeks

Get Slide to hi flow them with steel wheels :wave:

boost controller is your friend :dry:

Shafts with out turbine wheels arent but

yeah i think its about right ya lose a little through 4wd... i'm happy either way, i drive my GTR everyday i dont need to tune it to max and max out a dyno just to see a high figure.. reliability is all i want and i've owned the car for over a year now and the only thig i've fixed is a new cv drivers side and the top tank in the radiator went a few weeks back.. other than that its been sweet..

sounds like we got us better rides then expected.

cept, i maxed out the injectors before puttin the nismo 555cc ones in which now run at 75%

which i wonder if puttin the injectors down to 70% would do any harm ?

actually, only problem i ever had with this liner is the turbo.

the inpropella/inperpella (spelling) fan was rubbing up against the housing when hittin full boost (back in those days, stock 7psi) lol

which then i was forced into actually gettin the turbo rebuilt and while i was at it, i had it high flowed.

its still going good today though!

Yes because you would have 5% less fuel when you needed it

or i could just buy bigger turbo's :wave:

looking into it after chrissy so many choices.. hks gtrs's look good

Hell yeah they are awesome (I am looking at getting one for my car) they are damn expensive but!

so wat if i up it to 80% then?

would i end up drowning the injectors in fuel?

Probably not, but you would be wasting 5% more fuel that you had to

Much difference in spool up time?

not really noticeable

    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
    • Could be correct. Meter might be that far out. Compare against a known 5 ohm 1% resistor.
    • @Murray_Calavera  If I were an expert I wouldn't be in here looking for assistance.  I am extremely computer literate, have above average understanding on how things should be working and how they should tie together.  If I need to go to a professional tuner so be it, but I'd much rather learn and do things myself even if it means looking for some guidance along the way and blowing up a few engines. @GTSBoy  I was hoping it would be as simple as a large vacuum leak somewhere but I'm unable to find anything, all lines seem to be well capped or going where they need to be, and when removed there is vacuum felt on the tube.  It would be odd for the Haltech built in MAP to be faulty, the GTT tune I imported had it enabled from the start, I incorrectly assumed it was reading a signal from the stock MAP, but that doesn't exist.  After running a vacuum hose to the ECU the signal doesn't change more than 0.2 in either direction.   I'll probably upload a video of my settings tomorrow, as it stands I'm able to daily drive, but getting stuttering when giving it gas from idle, so pulling away from lights is a slow process of revving it up and feathering the clutch until its moving, then it will accelerate fine.  It sounds like I need to get to the bottom of the manifold pressure issue, but the ignition timing section is most intimidating to me and will probably let a pro do that part.  Tomorrow I'll try a different vacuum line to T off of, with any luck I selected one that was already bypassed during the DBW swap.  (edit: I went out and did it right now, the line I had chosen did appear to have no vacuum on it, it used to go to the front of the intake, I've now completely blocked that one off at the bracket that holds several vacuum lines by the firewall.  I T'd into the vacuum line that goes from that bracket to the vacuum pump at the front of the car, but no change in the MAP readings).  Using the new vacuum line that has obvious vacuum on the hose, im still only getting readings between -6.0 and -5.2.  I'm wondering why the ECU was detecting -5.3 when nothing was connected to the MAP nipple and ECU MAP selected as the source. @feartherb26  I do have +T in the works but wanted to wait until Spring to start with that swap since this is my good winter AWD vehicle.  When removing the butterfly, did it leave a bunch of holes in the manifold that you needed to plug?  I thought about removing it but assumed it would be a mess.   I notice no difference when capping the vacuum line to it or letting it do its thing.  This whole thing has convinced me to just get a forward facing manifold when the time comes though.
    • Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.
