What "few" other goodies??

A GT35 is too big for a 2.2ltrs far as i see it, far too big... GT35 is 350rwkw style, 30+ psi easily... on a 2.2 with a head that flows like a 2" exhaust :)

So you'll run into all sorts of drama's there.

Even a 3037 is too be, get a 2835 or similar IMO. With decent tyres and a good driver 11's shouldnt be a problem

ive had a look at the 2835 but its not rated at that much more ps than the turbo in there at the moment.. generaly im aiming for 400rwhp and if it breaks 11's it would b nice. few other goodies meaning just off the top of my head forgies, cams, powerfc, fuel pump, injectors, head gasket.. i dont mind abit of lag but i dont want sumthing hitting full boost at 6k anything around 4 - 4.5 is fine by me

How much power are you getting from the AX53B70 again? Was around 220rwkw yeah? If so that sounds alittle low especially with mods you have like cams and headwork and a 2.2L...i think guys have pushed numbers close to the mid 200s...i could be wrong though...but if thats true...then that sounds like there are definitlely issues or restrictions in your system that should be sorted out...

I had a look at your dyno graph and you're making less power with the same response as my 2535...the AX53B70 is rated higher than the 2535...plus you have headwork and a 2.2L...it probably shows that theres a fair bit more to be had from your setup...

If you do want to upgrade though...i think a 2835 or maybe a td06 with 8cm housing would be the go for around 250+ rwkw...i'm starting a hybrid rb22 build too and might consider a turbo upgrade too at the same time as my 2535 might be getting alittle tired...and if so i'll probably go with the 2835...

IMO a GT3071 with a .63 ex housing will see very close to 300rwkw, with the best response you can hope for.

I think your right mate.

This is the option I would be going for if I was chasing 300rwkw on an RB22. The 2.2l isn't going to have that much exhaust flow that it will cause a restriction and limit power with a 0.63 a/r rear housing, and this should still be pretty responsive.

limpus the tune was done in perth by a fairly known tuner and they said that there pulled as much out of it as they could, the other other way im going to make more power is to get a bigger turbo.. i mite go 2 another tuner and see wot they have to say because im pretty certain that it can get 320 - 330rwhp... ad4m ive spoken to u abit on antilag, that GT3076R murrayis is talking about u rkn that would suit my engine? murrayis what housing is the turbo?

GT3076R would be fine man!

not to long ago a dude in perth had his tuned running that turb on a std rb20 with hks cams,plazmaman plenum,6boost mani, turbo smart 48mm gate and all the usual supporting mods and went 358rwhp@20psi... and the way it made the power was so linear and smooth, if i didnt already have the 3040 it definatly would have been my pick!

i cant remember for the life of me what rear housing it was but if you need to know more shoot r32rookie on antilag a pm.

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
