it ran 1.46bar no problem at all

im making bout 14psi by 4000rpm then bout 20psi by 5000rpm and yeah

its really weird power band, needs a tune still since plenum upgrade so i dunno

tune should bring it on alot better id say.

mine is doing the same thing but i havn't driven it up t0 20psi. it just dont seem right i back off when the boost is around 18 psi, seeing as your motor hasnt blown yet i might flat stick it tongiht see what boost it will run and how it runs.

Not before the finish line :D

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

lol.. i was told that the turbo will free up after a month or so of driving and turbo will spool up alot quicker say around 2500rpm :P

:lol: Whoever told you that is full of crap. Sorry to say, you have been had, if you are expecting that to happen.

For the amount of boost you use (stress on the engine) and the power/response it makes, the turbo is just not worth it. :thumbsup:

yeah you dif wont be gettin that kind of response no way lol

im just waiting 1 day for mine 2 shit itself lol one day, but it was re ringed bout 12months ago and done 20,000kms since then.... on 19psi pretty much daily

has vapour blow by but no oil, but wot motor doesnt have blow bye? lol

hahah ok. but stop getting excited about a stock car that sucks balls to no i might have problem disposing of them! i got this turbo free so who cars :P

mine has just been re ringed aswell mate, who does your tuning and wat computer you running??

its actually caused by the exhaust housing/wastegate design. if u look at where the wastegate gases come out you'll see it hits a wall and has to turn 90 degrees to join the main flow out the turbine. this causes way too much backpressure so gas would not flow out the wastegate just the turbine. hence the rising boost. seen it happen with many of these cheap integral wastegate turbos.

Hey mate, I just blew up a kkr480! On 20 psi, Now running a 560 and its overboosting also. Its hitting 23-24 pounds which is ridiculous! Not sure what to do either? Needs a re tune, im using a blitz electronic boost controller and when i turn it down it still goes way past the set 20 psi... It sucks!

Good luck keep me posted on what you do...very interesting!

Thanks Joey

need a external wastegate might help other option bin it the money you have now spent on kkr rubbish you would have had a good turbo

Edited by rich flavour
correct me if im wrong lowrb but ur engine blew up a lil while back and u live in bundaberg right

yes i cracked 4 piston ring lands bout 12 months ago, running a slide highflow 18psi and stock ecu lol

but since re ringed motor and done nearly 20,000kms on 19-20psi daily... mmmm lol hit 1.5 bar last nite prob blow soon haha

motor loves it lol

remember me sbr33 from the bay lol

i guess there is only so much power stock turbo will push out, kkr430 or 480 will push more power then a factory turbo anytime or day so i dunno wats the go with the lies? lol

Lies that a car with no respsonse (only mildy more power) will beat a car with not too far off power and a wide powerband

Technical parameters: - Axle: front. - Disc type: ventilated. - Number of holes: 5. - Disc diameter: 310mm. - Total height with center: 54mm. - Thickness (new/min.): 30/28mm. - Designed for brake calipers manufacturer: Sumitomo.
    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
