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.

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
