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.

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I highly rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
