Finally got all my parts in and took the car to the dyno and the results were less than I expected (although, isn't that always the case :(). I was under the assumption that the HKS GT2530s would spool much much faster than they did and I was expecting around 450 whp. Let me know what you guys think..

A/F ratios: started off weak but were spot on after moving around the fuel map and we peaked injector duty at only 74%.

Boost: we went up to 1.4 bar to play it safe on the GT2530s, and when it finally got to full boost, it held steady there moving around +/- .2 bar.

Power Mods:

2 x HKS GT2530 Turbos

2 x 300zx MAFs

Ogura Twin Plate Clutch

Greddy Front Mount Intercooler

Sard 722cc Fuel Injectors

Sard 276lph Fuel Pump

NGK Iridium Racing Spark Plugs

Apexi PowerFC Stand Alone Engine Management

Apexi PowerFC Boost Control Kit

Apexi PowerFC Commander

Greddy dual dump pipe /w decat

Apexi exhaust damper control

5Zigen Exhaust

Notes: Dyno sheet is in yankee hp not aussie :). It was done on a RWD dyno with AWD fuse pulled, no AWD ones around here. Normal pump fuel was used the whole time.

Not sure why it's showing the image as dead below, but it opens when you click it.

is there a graph with boost pressure against RPM? torque peak at 6500 seems to be like it's very laggy, guessing it doesn't hit full boost until after 5500.

Thanks for the replys guys..

CAMs and what is normal fuel over there. we use 98 or 100 RON over here.

The 91 I was using is spot on to your 99.

I don't have any sort or graph, but yeah full boost was very very slow. I'm thinking it's one of three things:

1) I have the PowerFC (PFC Boost Control Kit installed) set for 1.4 bar @ only 60% duty, should I bump up the % and lower the boost I'm asking for?

2) The actuators are way off on the turbos for whatever reason and just need to be tightened? I don't know if the gt2530 actuators can even be tightened..

3) Boost leak?

I really have no clue on this one, just throwing some ideas out there.

Thanks again guys.

they use 91 octane, there premium is around 94. Still far to laggy something must be wrong

Their octane ratiung however is calculated on RON+MON/2, whereas ours is just RON.

American 91 octane is basically equivilant to our 98 octane, and the 94 octane well surpasses out premium fuels.

Well something is definatly wrong.. I just did a 13.09 @ 105mph in the quarter mile, with a peak boost of 1.35 bar and everything appeared fine on my Apexi Commander.

So my only 2 thoughts on what could be wrong:

1) The actuators are way off on the turbos for whatever reason and just need to be tightened? I don't know if the gt2530 actuators can even be tightened..

2) Boost leak?

Any ideas?

we saw 404awkw (540awhp) on pump gas with a similar set-up and over 450awkw on race fuel...what total timing are you running?? with correct camshaft selection and tuning there is no reason why you shouldn't crack 350awkw (470awhp)

AFAIK Mustang Dyno's read pretty damn low?

The 1/4 mile dyno didn't lie though 13.09 @ 105 MPH

our car was the test car in HPI way back when it was bog stock and i think Ben Ellis managed to reel off back to back 12.9's

I'm on stock cams and cam gears. I know that will slow spool but it shouldn't be nearly this bad.

I had another GTR last year and pulled nearly the same time as this one..which has the hks 2530s.. this doesn't add up.

    • Lets keep this going , Spotted this very stock V35 in Penrith and also saw a nice R32 FLY past me on Castlereagh rd , sounded really good.
    • Great work! Give it a clean up with some Emery paper, and I'd run a thread die over the threads too to clean them up. It will make reinstall much easier, and also life easier for the next time it needs to come out.
    • I'm not a fan of high humidity, it's one reason I don't mind being further inland out Ipswich, except the last 3 odd years, the drought broke, and it won't stop raining, which is making the humidity nearly unbearable when the rains are in during summer! For me, my body hates the cold, once the cold sets into my body, I'm totally screwed. I end up with severe muscle spasm in my back/shoulder muscles, and it feels like someone is trying to tear the muscles out. I have no issues with it getting stupid hot, so long as the humidity goes away. So the last 3 years as above, have been woeful! Ha ha. However, June 1st, and I'm only just converting from shorts and a tee, to long pants and a t shirt. And that's mainly as it's a bit wet and miserable and I wanted to work on a car.
    • I much prefer colder weather to hot weather, and especially prefer cold to hot and humid, Goulburn does gets pretty warm in the hotter months, but, I've found the humidity there is not as painful as even Sydney, the humidity up north is to oppressing for this old rooster  In saying this, it does get rather "nippy" in Goulburn for early morning, late in the evening walks, but nothing that a layer or two, some thermal gloves, and a beanie doesn't fix to make it an enjoyable experience, which is much more bearable to me than the oppression of heat and humidity,  especially at night when your trying to sleep If I recall correctly, a "wise man" once said that the "Southern Tablelands" was gods country, and I will not argue that point with him for the fear of a "permaban" LOL In car part related news: My intake is currently in Botany getting processed for the last leg of its shipping journey to my door   
    • Had a go at the stuck crush tube this afternoon. Tried things like grips and a chain wrench first but wouldn't just twist straight off. So got to work with a drill. Started small and kept a depth stop on to make sure I didn't drill into the bolt. Made a line of drill holes all the way up and enlarged them. Then a combination of chisel and Dremel to split it all the way up. Levered the split to get oil in there and eventually it gave a bit while levering. Worked it back and forth with loads more oil till it was spinning freely, then with grips I could work it downwards and off. And no significant damage to the bolt (not by me anyway - just the 27 years of rust)
