hahah

I'm about to do the same thing - go from about 170 to about 220 to 230. It's almost a 30% increase so it should be good.

I also would like to know how much of a difference it will be. I realise the boost wont come on quite as quick (will be using GCG high flow)..

The way I see it I will lose a bit from 2000rpm to about 3500rpm but after that it will be ++..

So I lose power over 1500rpm to gain 3500rpm (i.e. from 3500-7000rpm)

Cheers

Im contemplatig the same power figure as it a cheaper option than my mechanics recommndation which will give me 260+rwkw.

Those with around 230rwkw can u give soem sort of idea of wha tits like to drive? is ther emore wheelspin? is the extra power more useable? etc thanks.

good point. ive ran cars with more power than me and beaten them due to them wheelspinning. they get really pi$$d off lol

yes its a big jump but no its not scary...

but you need to know how to control a car thats sideways.

as soon as i got my license i got into rallying.

(state level) i only used a cheap dato 1600 but the years i spent on dirt sideways have done me well.

im now above 300kws and its still not scary.

you just have to use your head more then your right foot. i mean where can you use 250kws????

you cant on the road. within .5 second your at the speed limit so why do you need any more?

in saying that

because its fun and the feeling of opening her up takes my breath away every time.

so enjoy 230 while your there and use it as a learning curve towards 250 , 270 , then 300 and beyond.

cheers

Yeah gets boring quickly. I have 270rwkw and am trying to resist the temptation to go for 300+.

and thats the rub. It will feel qucik for a while then you'll want more. You'll stop renting p0rno and buying maccers to save for that oil pressure guage, then you'll stop hanging out at the pub on Fridays cause if you save that money you can afford that front mount , always chasing that first buzz....WHERE WILL IT END MAN.WHERE!!!

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
