be interesting to see your results, a mate fitted the 650 to his 1j and the claims of 30% better spool than an equivalent garrett didnt pan out, she is extremely laggy (5000rpm?) but that being said the car makes alot more power than it did with a .63 reared gt35 on the same boost (440 to 480rwhp)

whatever you do dont damage it, waiting time on replacement parts for the turbo is in the 2-3month range

Nice engine SLY33, ex maniforl is a work of art!

Just a quick question though (provided its not top secret info):

What cams are you running in that purple beast?

Good luck on the engine dyno! Im sure she'll pull out some serious numbers once run in!

cheers guys.

the engine dyno im using is currently apart for some maintenance. im hoping to get it run in/tuned as soon as its back together.

Cams are Jun 272's. It will be interesting to see how this thing drives, everything about it has become more focussed on top end flow, rather than response. The only drivability/response component in its favour is the 2.8litre stroker crank! There was going to be a 6 throttle nismo plenum to help with the response, but that got put aside for the all-out hypertune manifold.

All i want of this build is to have a bit of a scare when i find enough road to put the foot down. If i want a good responsive package and some tail out fun, well thats what the GTS-t is for :miner:

(for those that were interested in the extrude honed stock manifold results on my GTS-t, it should hopefully be on and tuned in a couple of weeks, will post the results)

Very nice - look forward to seeing how this comes out. Are 272s big enough for an 850hp odd turbo?

  • 2 weeks later...
  • 6 months later...
  • 3 months later...

So far it made 760HP @flywheel at 24psi. Would have liked an even 800 but i guess its more than enough as it is.

its going back in the car now, will try get some pics up. Will be interesting to see how the rwkw reading will translate back to the flywheel reading once its done.

is there gonna be a significant difference at the end of the day with a x-force vs another?

I just used what the engine builder rec'd, he reckons it will do the job..

btw fuel is 98 pump plus 10% methanol

But yeah she looks pretty laggy! Goes something like this, 4000rpm 200HP, 5000rpm 300HP then between 5000-6000 rpm the power doubles from 300-600HP. Peaks somewhere round 8200rpm.

Will get the dyno sheet up..

Looking at the power delivery, if i were to build again id definitly go a 3litre and perhaps a slightly smaller turbo. But no doubt this will still be fun :yes:

Nawww no aircon :)

Dude! Tell me about it! I said to my engine builder i wanted to keep it, but no room for condenser and fan.. He said later on we could do something custom... Car will barely get driven anyway as i dont live in Australia anymore! Offers to buy this car may be considered!

    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
    • street use or race track, what hose size and why? what factors change with the hose size options ?   see most comon is an10. when you see most oem external coolers are closer to an12? does high volume oil pump like nitto need an12 or 10 be just fine
