Kkr 480 On R33

[rich flavour]

Hey all, i have just installed this kkr 480 turbo i had at home. i have found that for some reason even with the actuator rod not connected the car still running boost, i guessing the size of wastegate hole is to small..correct me if im wrong???

has anyone had this problem??

also have i got the kkr430 and maybe this is the problem ?? but im 90% sure its the kkr 480 someone gave it to me so...

cheers.

with the actuator disconnected, the wastegate will never open, which means boost will continue to rise as long as the throttle is open and the engine is ingesting air

this basically means your running unlimited boost - be careful with this - it might go bang.

what spring are u using in the actuator? what boost controller have u got setup?

what exhaust setup do you have? have you checked the actuator / swing valve for play? does the wastegate flap actually open?

i also get the same problem my kkr480 i just had it put back onto my rb25 and i also put on a greddy plenum and last nite i seen 1.46 bar so that cant be good hmmm

b4 the plenum upgrade it was around 1.2bar i would hit...

i had same issue with 480, even tho we unwlded the gate n changed it, so i took off the turbo. it didnt make the power i was after anyways and was runing way too high boost 23psi ish to make only 290hp to the back

[l0WRB]

sounds a bit like my issue lol 2 much boost for f**k all power.. typical kkr

[drmafia]

im sellin the kkr setup soon and im selling a real good Greaddy td06h-25H polished turbo with top mount mani and gready dump pipe, if u want this will spool fast n pull very hard all the way unlike the kkr that kickes in way too late on such high boost.. let me know if intersted

The spring on the actuator is factory kkr, exhaust 3inch after market turbo back. i have checked the actuator it functions fine, tryed with 2 diffrent boost controllers one electric the other just a cheap t piece style same resault. i have also tryed with no boost controller does anyone no the least boost you can run with this actuator??

so wastegate hole is to small thats my problem?

How much you want for this turbo mate? what state you in? how manys k's has it done? and at what boosts? what sorta power can i expect to make at the wheels??

what do you rev your car out to or you dont flogg it when it isn't running right?

limiter is set to 7500rpm im pretty sure, but since plenum upgrade and car hasnt been tuned, ive lost alot of down low and turbo comes on really hard bout 5000rpm and then goes straight to limiter...

sounds gay if the boost range is 5000 to 7500rpm is it evan worth it?

[l0WRB]

i like it lol standard response gets old real quick, plus u cant drive around off vacum or hearing ya turbo spool, but wit a bigger one its nice u can just cruise round and yeh ...

It would make the car slower than if it had the factory turbo i reckon.

Useless powerband

KKR turbos are nothing short of shit.................

You get what you pay for; and a little less with the kkr

Factory turbo is faster untill the kkr turbo comes on boost then she will scream past..

[l0WRB]

haha yep, nice top end, most 200rwkw skylines will smoke other hp cars on the street until bout 120 then u get traction and start reeling them in big time haha

[rich flavour]

hey |OWRB

do you run 1.46 bar boost still with no problems?

i have found it to lag a bit and then come on real hard almost too hard.

[N I B]

Ive had to fit Exturnal gates to save these crapper Turbos.

Not before the finish line

The other car will have the beers open an waiting for you, while you wait for boost
