I've got it in and it pulls hard up top but a couple of things have happenned.

Firstly it runs 15psi at low boost

and secondly,in first and sometimes second it hits what seems to be a fuel cut.

Is that what it is?

Whats my nexts step?

Do any of you with high flows or bigger turbos run that much boost as soon as its in or hit a boost or fuel cut?

I think I need aFuel cut defender and regulator for more boost.

I'm not that rich at the moment even though my fuel mixture is.

Heres the old jigger.

Did you get that off Kaos Racing?

Dude, I thought that Jeremy's Skyline was tuff enuff, but that turbo looks awesome!

:);) ;)

Yes he did, and yes it is :P

Jeremy is not content with 'only' 12 second passes... nuff said.

Well, I can understand that as 12 seconds is REALLY slow......:P

I suppose I will have to get a 3037 or a GT30 or something then....

Reckon that would be enough to keep up?

:shake:

Make sure you let us know how you go. Pop your dyno run on here for a looksie. You will probably at least need a Fuel Cut Defender to get the most out of the turbo. Besides having fuel run out maybe. I have a FCD they are quite fiddly the more boost you allow the more the fuel leans out. Good to a certain extent as our cars inherently run rich. Other people have used fuel bleed valves to lean out fuel.

I'll get a pic of the curve soon.I got 266hp at the wheels with next to no difference at 15,16 or 17 psi.It was still running rich but we didn't risk another psi.The curve flatened at about 240 hp then jumped up and flatened on 266.Not bad concidering I have done nothing but change the fuel pump.

    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
    • Hey mate, really appreciate the help. Have been looking pretty extensively myself and was certain they were retro fitted, but then ended up finding a 4 door with what looks like the same side skirts or at least the closest I’ve seen.

    • Isn't there a PAR engineering gearset that has closer to stock ratios? And they claim they'll do whatever ratios you want.
