you c**nts are f*kn losers. if you got nothing good to say about the dude, lay the f*k of him. fkn little shits hiding behind ur computers. who cares he dusnt know as much as you, it dusnt mean you have to take the piss out of him to make urself feel special

clearly your his mate or his other account.

Andru-- DUDE where you gettin those figures from??

the wrx stock turbo is the TD04. max boost is at 14.5 at 3500 rpms and tapers to around 8 or 9 at redline. IHI VF39 is the stock turbo on usdm STI's. IHI VF34 is the turbo for JDM STI"S

You know there are totally different engines.. Totally different turbos.. DIFFERENT CAR!!! OMG did you know that??

Seriously man..

Why do you hate them now?? coz they run higher boost? Ever thought of why??

If they come stock with those boost levels, wouldn it be safe?? As if a company is gonna boost the car so high that the engine will go POP after a month or so..

Edit: oh and-- the stock turbo is good for about 16.5 lbs, anything above that is probably above the efficiency range of the td04L

So you cant say they run 17psi stock!! coz thats peak boost levels..

gd entertainment you provide..

Andru, just to answer your question, differently designed/manufactured turbos can generate/sustain different levels of boost.. currently skylines use turbos that spool up quicker but run less boost, we also have 2.5/2.6lts vs. 2.0 or in the new wrx 2.5 (i'd be interested to see what boost they run)..

The evo's also run high boost levels e.g. 14/15PSI.. it's the offset you get for having a 2Ltr engine and trying to create high power..

As for the comments.. well.. it's an acceptable question, maybe just the way you state it.. You could have simply asked "Why does a WRX/EVO run high levels of boost vs. Skylines".. Also - you just need to look at the RB20DET, they run quite high levels stock (e.g. 11/12psi - or whatever it is) - it offsets the 2Ltr engine..

Anyways.. good luck, appears to be a hunting ground here.. :)

And ANDrue.. please read what i wrote above..

Since im a nice guy, i asked a friend of mine for some sites for you..

so heres one for you:

You will learn everything about a wrx!! then go compare it to your wonderful car.

gdluck mate..

That was so terrible I think you just gave me cancer.

WRX was designed for rally conditions, short events (only used for a few kilometres) while the RB series engine was designed for the track for events like the JGTC where it runs for heaps more distance and higher power.

Just like trucks are designed with massive torque to move other trucks around, and RX7's are designed to move 1 person driving (hehe they have zero torque down low hehehe).

andru, i have a tip for you. if you get a piece of alluminium around 60mm in diameter, then drill out a 20mm hole in the middle. now place it in your intake track (just after the nipple that your boost guage get's it's reading from). now disconnect your wastegate actuator. you should be now able to reach 40psi (briefly) on your stock turbo.

OMFG your stock turbo can make 40psi it must be heaps better.

read these next lines over and over:

boost pressure is not power

a car running 14psi does not make double the power of a car running 7psi

not every single car is equipped with the same turbo

boost pressure is partly a measure of restriction. it's meaningless without some kind of specs on the turbo, and some numbers on how much air the compressor is pumping at a certain pressure.

you want to really find out what's going on power wise tell me how much air (in CFM) a standard subaru wrx turbo is pumping at 14psi, then tell me how much air a standard nissan 34 GTT turbo is pumping at say 7psi.

think twice before hitting the new thread button please.

i got my facts from wrx.com.au its all there

alright guys lets just put all the crap aside for one second

i dont HATE rexs...i jsut reguarded as a real good good car...like i was amazed that they go so fast and stick so well to the ground......AWD and all u no...but after finding out it runs 17 boost i kinda just lost a lil for em.

will it make you respect them more if they went for larger turbos running low boost at the same power?

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.

    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
