Martin would it be possible to have an overlap copy of the V8's 400+rwkw power torque curve and maybe your Soarer, a few r33's with different power levels and a couple of R32's thrown in their?

or

If I can have a copy of the above runs I will overlap them and make a post here ?!?!

Chris what mods?

Joel, HKS 2510 turbo @ 1 bar, FMIC, 3" exhaust, Bosch pump and re-mapped computer

Check out this dyno chart. This is from the weekend, a good comparison between Grepin and Freebaggins RB25 and my RB20. Just shows how much 1/2 litre makes a differance in the midrange

note - I have blurred out our rego numbers just in case there are theiving bastards browsing the forums for quick cars, but have marked which one is what

Just looking at the AF's Chris it looks like yours was running quite a bit leaner in the mid hence the power loss possibly?

I remember when mine was tuned similiar with similiar AF's it lost heaps in the mid range.

I found that running the mid a little richer (just under 12) made best power.

The PowerFC looks like it has a very good power curve and also AF' Ratios. hrmmm

Yeah, not to sure Joel. I just put it down to being 2L v 2.5L with variable inlet timing. If I compare the dyno chart from when it had the stock turbo on, the mid-range is virtually identical.

Going to use a electronic boost controller instead of the bleed valve to try and fill the mid-range in a bit.

Perhaps Martin could comment on this, as he tuned it and would have a greater understanding of this then I would?

I found with the EBC it actually came on to boost a little slower but was more controlled compared to the bleed.

I.e the Bleed felt quicker because it would spike up really quickly then boost would slowly drop off, the top end would flatten out where as with the ebc it still comes on hard but it is only hitting say 1 bar instead of 1.1 bar however the top end is better due to not loosing boost.

Might be different with the 2510 unless that drops boost up top also with a bleed?

Nah, doesn't drop off at the top end. I just want to see if it will get ti th 1bar quicker than it does currently

I'd like to get a EBC anyway, so I don't have to fiddle around under the bonnet if I want to run less boost. Wil be good to see what differance it makes on my car

OK, it's on, The "How Crap!" Challenge:

Gotta beat Chris32's RB20 power level.

Gotta beat MattR's RB25 powered power level (no it doesn't help mate).

Gotta beat Nightcrawlers 400m elapse time.

Gotta beat Martin's 1Jz power level.

....man-o-man. Give me some time & $$.

Freebaggin.

P.S. Also gotta keep grepin at bay!

    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
