hey sau.

ok i wouldnt normally post such a noobie question but its been egging at me for a while. so

What is the standard boost for a R32 GTR?

what boost am i running according to this gauge.?

(best pic i could get when on boost)

and how do u read the standard gauge?

thanks

mark.

Hmmm

the std GTR gauge reads in mm of mercury (no idea why?)

my understanding is that if you hit the 7, that's about 1 bar = ~15psi

by the look of this you are a little under that (~12psi) - is that what you get with the restrictor removed ?

std boost on a GTR is about 7-9 psi - right ?

ok so going from my pic wrx hoon im on around 10psi?

Yes it looks to me about 500 ( 350 is the first line and 700 the last ). You can never take the stock gauge fro granted though , get a proper boost gauge.

GTR can take 14psi right..? thats standards.. wat can N1 items take?

Standard GTR turbos will make more than 14psi ( no worries there ) , the problem is how long for . It wont be long before the exhaust wheel flies off and maybe your engine with it .

N1's , depends on which N1's , there are so many different ones , I had no problem holding 1.4 bar all the way to 8k rpm with the Nismo GT N1's in a R33 GTR with a built engine .

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
