Previous Best of 180 rwkws

Expecting 240 to 270 rwkws cams dependent i say

All awaiting on compression tests and leakdown tests to how soon the project goes ahead if ok should be

good for november.

:thumbsup:

Comments welcome

Cheers devils

Will potential power be power reduced? Yes. More Importantly your turbo will not be able to produce boost as "efficiently". This will result in increased lag and higher turbo temps. You can pick up second hand decent CATS for <$200. It's worthwhile investment which you will never have to touch again.

hmm interesting, you guys would be right hmmm awell cat it is then :) still the go ahead will be known date from friday arvo once i get comp/leakdown test done

So far so good, i mean its not consuming oil or turning it black before 5000 kms of moderate driving, not blowing smoke of any sort, so i can see from the small picture it should be fine, the large picture well will be known on friday guys ;)

I guess suggestions would be very much appreciated on the catco cats from bosimporting, which one would be ample for my needs also results if any would be great aswell cheers guys

Ok so my compression values are in and leak down values what do you guys think:

Cyl1: 155 8%

Cyl2: 155 9%

Cyl3: 150 10%

Cyl4: 155 12%

Cyl5: 150 12%

Cyl6: 155 9%

Since last dyno made 178.9 rwkws before front pipe install so still running standard front pipe and dump

Also did power run whilst doing comp values to see if still in tune, seems that it is and with the new front pipe being the 3" complete front and dump comes to a new value of 197.3 rwkws.

The difference in IT's was 39 before and new of 41 with this one

So i think it would be safe to say that my project should be done mid november now :laugh: woohoo

Cheers

No mention of boost controller?

Assume you've already got one, but if not, you need to ensure you have something that will reliably hold boost if you're looking to push that amount of power, particularly on std internals...

Boost spikes = very bad news on std internals.

A few to consider...

Greddy Profec B Spec II (I have one of these - works well)

Apexi AVCR

Turbosmart Eboost II

Was running the hybrid boost controler. but have found its in effecient at holding bosot, although the hks turbo has an addjustable actuator on it i may just use that at the moment instead for boost control and later move to a better brand controller, will let you know how i go and keep you guys updated

  • 3 weeks later...

The two of the latter ones best bet i say, pending your power goal, and big difference in prices. will post dyno results next week when all done, On another note, regarding the highflow cat, did anyone notice a Sound drop, either im going deaf(I dont think so) but have noticed that since i put the cat on, my exhaust note/loudness has droped dramatically, quiet to compare against what it was?? Go figure

Cheers devils

Me either, I'm torn between a 2835proS, the 3037proS, and the GT3076R, so atm all dyno results will help me decide.

Maybe your old stock cat hollowed itself out and was basically functioning like a punched out cat. So when you chucked the hi flow cat on, you put a bit more restriction back into the exhaust system and thus the drop in noise. It shouldnt be that noticeable tho imo even if ur cat was 100% hollow

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
