Ok well i finished installing my turbo the other night and got it on the dyno... here are the results.

The turbo is a HKS 2530, i was running 10psi boost for this run.

It seems i need a fuel cut defender, and really need to upgrade fuel pump and reg from the standard crap ones i got.

what will be the max power std injectors can push?

what do you think my car will make once ive changed pump and reg? (i am running a std computer with injectors, but havee installed an SAFCII) i dont want to fork out for a complete computer.

I know this turbo's efficiency range is something like 1.2bar - 1.5 or something. i would like to run around 1.1-1.2bar if possible with new pump and reg.

any suggestons, ideas or info to improve its current state would be great.

heres the print out.2530dyno2.jpg

Why did you stop the power-run before 6000rpm? Due to the AFR being way too lean? Why didn't you use the SAFC to richen it up?

My car with stock turbo and injectors made 296rwhp, so I'm sure you can push your injectors to a bit over 300rwhp. A bigger fuel pump and fuel reg will allow about 340rwhp no probs.

Paul, yours does have 500 extra cc's to get there remember :(

bbenny: if youve got an SAFC then you should be able to tune that AFR graph to look a bit better, at the moment it looks like its leaning out toward dangerous at about 6krpm. However the RB20 ecu is very easily reprogrammed, and since your already paying for the dyno time, getting a remap by someone cluey shouldnt cost you too much.

Personally, if you dont plan on making too many changes to maps (like me:D), id sell the SAFC and let the ecu manage everything (probably cheaper and you get to change timing AND fuel maps).

Sorry, didn't read it was a R32.

I agree with Red17, Those AFR's are very bad, way too lean. I'm sure it will make decent power once the SAFC is tuned, or you have a remapped chip.

The way the dyno graph was pointing I'd guess you'd get 300rwhp easily at 1bar:D

i didnt stop it, it cuts out because its running too lean... i think it needs a fuel cut defender or something.

yeah i was hoping to make 300rwhp on stock injectors.

yeah i was contemplating whether to ditch the SAFC and chip it...

no the engine completely cuts out... so when im driving on the road i have the foot planted and then at around 5500rpm it just cuts out as if i took my foot completely off. its very sudden. its pulling hard then all of a sudden NOTHING.

Holy crap man....look at those AFR's after 4000rpm. Definately get the fuel pump first...and then see how much improvement you get. Standard injectors should be ok for around 210rwkw or so. If i were you i wouldn't be driving over 4000rpm....that's asking for trouble.

I put money on it been the fuel pump . Mine was the same.

Come into my work and grab a bosche 040 600hp internal.

Sounds like its hitting AFM cut as well which Glen at c-red can get rid of or lucas at speedworks. Don't put a shitty fuel cut defender on it when u can just program it out of the computer.

haha dont worry im not driving it above 4000rpm and ive dropped the boost to std! thanks for the concern guys.

yeah i think i will get the computer tuned.

Chris, im very happy with it so far... once i get the other problems sorted i think it will be shredding all those idiots in WRX's and commodores (even tho it already did, now just rubs it in a little more) hehe

Its the fuel pump!

I had similar 13.5 AFR under load when the fuel pump was dying...

I could see, with a gauge on fuel feed line, the rail pressure was dropping dramatically after 4500.

Upgrade the pump, its easy to do yourself on r32.

fuel pump upgrade link

(You make more power when its running lean like that...well until

it goes BANG anyway ;p)

I like the look of that graph though at only 10psi!

oh yeah, and toshi will sell you a remapped chip with fuel cut removed and mapped (timing and fuel) for bigger turbo

its not perfect though (only $160), as its not dynoed to your particular car but better than stock chip, you could still use the safc to fine tune it further (since you already got it)

or sell safc and get a proper chip remap on a dyno

Redline gtr: im not sure who will tune it at this stage. ive ben getting it the dyno runs at Procar - they are reasonable at $45 for a power run... and about $65 an hr to have A/F tuned...

gts-v-spec: yeah i was considering the drive there :)

yeah well ive already ordered pump and regulator so ill throw it in on monday night and get her back on the dyno and see what happens. if it still cuts out then im going to sell the SAFCII and chip it instead (bugger because i only put the SAFC in 2 days ago! gggrrrr) anyone interested in it? only about 2hrs use ;)

thanks for the instalation info Nissky

Oh and does anyone know a good place in Sydney to have the ECU tuned?

just get a Big fuel pump... dont worry about the Reg just yet.

Just get bigger injectors to go with the pump. And leave it to the stock reg.

Dont get a bigger reg to squeeze the most outta the stock injectors. You wont get much more so its not worth the time.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
