you'll find that dyno RPM boost thresholds don't mean shit in the real world, especially with a manual vehicle.

for example, my car made full boost at 3700rpm or so from memory when it was on the dyno.

on the street, it's like this if you mash it from idle:

1st: full boost 4500rpm

2nd: full boost 4000rpm

3rd: full boost 3600rpm

4th: full boost 3000rpm

so dynos aren't really very accurate when you compare it to a real-life situation.

the only reason to be concerned is if the car feels bad on the street, or doesn't do what you want it to do. then you know you need to change things around to suit your driving style. for example, next time i get the car tuned for more power (up above 400whp) i'm strongly considering going to a larger supercharger drive pulley to push the turbo up to a faster spool and get full boost down to around 3000rpm on the dyno. after driving the thing for near on 2000km now, that's the only real change i have even considered making.

y do all the tuners use speed as one of their axis? god it gives me this shits!

Not my dyno - its my mates.. i just change what i needed to - just to get it how i know how to use it :P

yeah, but why dont they just change the bottom axis to rpm? seems farking stupid to me :laugh:

How do you do it on a dyno dynamics dyno ? tell me how and il do it next time ! - considering i do all my tuning by myself it does not really bother me if its in km/h

Guilt toy, what pump you using and do you run a rising rate regulator?

I made 312rwkw with 550cc injectors with 044 pump and rising rate reg, only running around 75% duty cycle from memory.

I am using a Walbro 550hp pump - i wired it to a 12v relay etc etc... im using a sard fpr - i dont know if its a rising rate or what the rate is.

Funny thing is that at 317rwkw my injector duty is only up to 75% - its because it completly runs out of fuel - on the fuel pressure / flow tester it was going down to .5 litres a minute returning to the tank. So i am using pretty much all the fuel thats being pumped down the line. Need lots more flow and more reliable pressure.

Might get another walbro pump and stick it in the tank OR get a surge tank and a 044 and use the walbro to supply the surge tank.

no idea mate, but there should be a variable you can change somewhere...

Use the rpm probe on the dyno, it goes on the ignitor loop, where the timing light goes.

Or input the tyre size and diff ratio into the DD computer and it will work out the engine RPM

Piss off that Walbro fuel pump, they are shyte. The 550 bhp rating is for an N/A engine, they don't handle boost, as soon as the FPR compensates for boost pressure, the fuel flow drops of dramatically. Go Bosch, they are rated for flow at 73.5 psi, so plenty of head room for boost.

:sick: cheers :laugh:

Thanks Sydkid

Could i use the walbro to feed the surge tank and use the 044 from the surge tank?

Just wondering if the walbro would be good for a pre pump.

Cheers

If the dyno doesn't have the rpm input(they are a rip off), then i set the speed to 101kph, and hold the car under gentle load at 100, look at the rpm on the handset etc(not the tacho) Then press "Control R"and set the ratio tacho in the top left hand of the screen to say 31.50 if it was doing 3150rpm at 100. when in power run mode, press control down and set the axis to rpm. you may then have to set the parameters using shift down to say 2000-8000. Im a bit rusty, but that should be right. The dyno should have a piece of cardboard that sits above the function keys and explains all this, but its probably sitting in the draw.

I have my 044 mounted intank(it JUST fits in the stock bracket), not loud, and no surge tank needed.

im sure my emanage will be as good as a power fc ...? at the time i didnt have the cash fot a micro tec and got the emanage ultimate cheap and brand new so i didnt complain

Unfortunately its impossible for the emanage ultimate to be as good as a powerfc as the emanage has limitations due to its design and its piggy back nature (stock ecu limitations, fuel cuts etc).

You'd be better off having the stock ecu remapped. That is providing you don't want to utilize the vct.

cubes i think ya missing some info on my motor /progress

i have a rb25de non vct head with performance springs at 90lbs i was told also been faced and ported.

i have gtr 444 injectors with resistor pak a kkr480 q45afm<= not fitted yet a bosch 910 and surge tank.

hoping for 400rwhp if i can make that with the emanage..?

as it was tuned last time at boost works

as a rb2030 yes a 20 head on a 30 block with vlt pistons no combustion chamber change just water jackets moved 3mm over to fit the 30 ... the problem i had is vlt pistons and rb20 head makes 180 psi cylinder pressure and add 12psi makes pistons fall apart espically after 380,000 ks old pistons made 150 ish and wasnts able to make any more due to rb20det afm neerly maxing out .. pluss 38 degree days didnt help

but my loss .. and ill start again

Yep, Walbros are fine as long as they don't have to pump much pressure.

:P cheers :P

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
