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

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
