yeh must of hard a thrashing.... like i can push more boost into it but its the fuel that is totally anal and we all know the stock AFM is as helpful as cancer....

i was just devo'd like omg lol.....

steve said new injectors, ECU and fuel pump should b fine. i should make 200-220kws atleast. and im goin to get him to do a plenum job as well, makes the engine bay look so much more sexual.

sounds correct to me my old 33 made around the 165 pretty much same mods! threw a power fc in with new pump run at 15psi 210rwkw

but also depends on the dyno, u might go turbo tune then morpowa and you could have from 140-160rwkw... like i said dont worry about the figures! should have saved that money and put it towards a speed lab tune... u need a slap boy :(

200-220 you might be struggling bud its only a lil 2ltr, you would need to run 15-16psi and then the turbs will most prob end up falling apart, get the pump n remap for 14 psi get around 170-180 and that will be more then enough for you

thats what you get for going to people who have NFI

you do not need new injectors or ecu to make that power, however if its runnign too lean currently then theres a high chance your fuel pump is FUBAR in which case chuck a bosch or walbro in there.

once you have done that, make the effort to go and see jeff the speed lab and get him to remap it, then you'll be cranking the power.

BTW: plenumn wont do bollocks all for power unless your pushing 300 + rwkw...

every1 says every1 has NFI tho.... i dont know who to listen to lol.

i want to eventually get a bigger turbo so i figured to save money in the long run and remap after remap to just get an after market ECU now and save my self the trouble.

injectors and ECU will help me get that power eventually tho... i was gonna get a new pump soon anyways.

i wanna see exactly how much i can get out of the RB20!

i know the plenum wont help simon but its sure as hell looks better :(

*EDIT*

*holds nuts*

seriously dont get a plenum, stock plenums aren't bad at all.

Get a bosch 040 pump, ive heard nothing but great feedback about jeff, an rb20 remap will cost next to nothing in comparison to an aftermarket ecu, which isn't totally necessary as a REMAP is probably better anyways. I'd expect once you get a remap and a pump, assuming your motor is healthy id say a ball park figure of 190odd-200 on 1 bar.

it's quite simple! boostworx or speed lab! everone here recommends them but "i know a guy" so i don't use them! but if i had to i wouldn't go anywhere else

btw, isn't the r33 s2 turbo more weaker than the s1? because it's got a nylon wheel or something? i'm not sure

My car, with the same setup as yours, just with a walbro pump, made 178-180 on 8psi.

Chuck a pump in there get Jeff/Shaun to remap the ECU and see what you can get.

Want more? Put a reg on and get a bit more out of the injectors.

More after that? Well, then it starts getting expensive. Anything after that and you're also starting to sacrifice gearbox reliability.

i want to eventually get a bigger turbo so i figured to save money in the long run and remap after remap to just get an after market ECU now and save my self the trouble.

This doesnt make much sense to me

A a/m ecu is in essence just remap in a different case and may have some other options.

and after any engine mods you really *should* get a remap/retune just to make sure

also

Go see Jeff

He is very good.

    • Old Son, did you re-use the Holden ABS in the new shell or try a different module?
    • Yeah, nah. I had the actuator rod off it today. The arm will not move at all. Neither out, nor in. Yeah, you'd think so, but I've been thinking about that. Even when the actuator rod fell all the way off at the beginning of this saga, it would build more boost and faster in lower gears than it would in higher gears, and you'd think that that was the opposite of what should happen. But I strongly suspect that there is a thing with the gearing getting the revs to rise faster, that there must be some transient effect with the gas flow rate rising quickly, that you don't get with the more steady state case of the higher gears. Keep in mind - the gate is not shut in either of my weirdnesses. So things are not "normal". We normally think about a turbo spooling up (below the wastegate target) with the gate shut. I have all sorts of mental models running now where the gate is a little bit open, and having it stuck open allowing gas out while it should be going through the turbine has all sorts of weird effects (in these mental models). I'm thinking in the higher gears, the ex mani pressure builds to the point where enough gases spill out the wastegate to just prevent the pressure rising much more at all, or just creeping up, all the whole the revs are increasing and getting closer to the point where a gear shift becomes necessary.
    • Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up
    • Does anyone know ow what these two plugs are for and if they should be unplugged? Just put the dash back together and can't remember if these were plugged in before or unplugged! (Blue and white plugs) 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Did some FASTing ...got the impression that the actual part# was a moot point ; seems all of these hardlines for coolant are discontinued/NLA... like, I take it you're after the hardline that bolts onto to the manifold...that's NLA according to amayama & nengun .... ...just to clear up some confusion, they typically mounted the AAC valve to the intake manifold somewhere near a coolant passage, so the body of the valve heats up & holds it open when engine's up to temp - no coolant flows through the valve, it's a mechanical, thermal connection.
