On my car it peaked at 4500rpm with the stock turbo, which I believe is pretty normal, and then started heading downwards.

there are alot of good turbos out there, just gotta decide what you want and then find the right one to suit. I dont know what the max torque is on stock internals, plenty of people making 300rwkw+ so if you work on a 7000-7500rpm limit, you could probably work out what sort of torque is being made. If you still have the book you borrowed, I am pretty sure there would be a conversio formula.

I hope the torque curve stays the same with more boost, cams and gasket, but I am not holding my breath:D

Nice dyno graph Steve. The graph does look very linear, which probably means that the turbo isn't considered "big" for the RB25. Also means that it should be very responsive :) I have attached my dyno graph for comparisons sake, same turbo but on a 2L and you can see that it's definitely a lot peaker than yours. Hence laggier. Off boost it really felt much more sluggish than the stock turbo.

Glad you got good results. Your aim for 300rwkw should be quite achievable.

EVOIV, looks like you were starting to run a bit lean there, 13:1 Were you gettting any detonation?What size turbine AR are you using? Perhaps a smaller one would make a bit of difference? Also what boost were you running? Its interesting because trent from autobarn was making in the range of 280-290rwkw on SR20 S13, he was using a 0.73AR turbine housing.

Certainly is a bit different, although the boost seems to build pretty quickly once it starts:)

the car is very responsive, even off boost it is so much nicer to drive. I wound in 1.2 bar, its just crazy, really got to be very gentle with the right foot if you want to keep traction:) Time for some R compound rubber I think:) or wind the boost down:(

Dont know if you noticed or not (on my other thread), but Evan gave me a quote on the turbo heat shield, said he makes them for $80

$80 for a heat shield seems nice :)

The turbine housing is 0.73. That dyno graph was run on 1.2bar boost. Nope, no detonation...it was tuned by Shaun from MORPOWA who now works for RPM. He said he could put in more fuel, but I'm not sure why they didn't. He said that that AFR was near optimum, but I always thought it should be around 12.8? I had a 044 pump with stock injectors. Not sure what duty cycle was, but I'm sure there was more than enough juice there.

I wasn't aware that Trent's car made so much power. I haven't spoken to him in ages, but at last years AutoSalon I remember him making around 230kW@wheels on 1.2bar? Maybe more. I heard that the engine blew up and they are now going to use an HKS GT28 series turbo, less laggy.

Geez John, not even a kind word!

And I tuned your ute, your 34, your 33 (on two different computers), and your other 33......

Mate, I forgive ya! :burnout:

I was reading a ford mag at work and it had this tuner from QLD that had 2 XR6T packages.

The first was around 6k I think it was around 300rwkw the second was 10k and 400rwkw. I THINK.. I can't remember exactly.

Any one know the exact figures/power?

just wondering if anyone new how much fueltronics charge for remapping.and would it be better to remapp my chip or just buy an aftermarket computer like a power fc? is there really that much difference between the two because theres a big difference in $$$$...the car that needs remapping has a bigger turbo and is about to have bigger injectors....prob 550cc and a gtr fuel pump

Eppilogue to dyno tune.

I saw Martin today, he spent a total of less than 1 hour doing a complete remap of the original tune. Results speak for themselves. The two runs are before and after (of course), but also got the idle sorted alot better (no more hunting) and it doesnt cut out when decellerating anymore (only did it occasionally).

Plotted in shootout mode (the only accurate way, eh Martin;)) the correction was only 1.029, so bugger all. Anyways doesnt make alot of difference, as there is before and after runs.

    • Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action
    • Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand. 
    • Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!
    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
