hi i am on a mission to break the 300hp mark with standard turbo

has it been done before?

i hear that some of you have 290hp but haven’t herd for 300hp

please leave any thoughts and or comments

and yes i have searched for hours

If you have the money to replace the turbo, yes it can be done. The question is how long will it last? One dyno run, a few, a week, a month, a year, who knows?

I have heard of people running 16psi on std turbo, expecting it to blow, as they were ready to upgrade, then it lasted for years and made about 300hp.

It can be done.

Go to the dyno operator, tell him you wanna see 300rwhp.

He can play with some settings and *ta-da* you have 300rwhp.

Can you do it legitimately?

No. 290 is wrong also. Add to the fact you'd NEVER tell the different between 10rwhp anyway.

Stock turbo is good for a legitimate 190-200rwkw 12psi or so (260-270rwhp).

No one has ever run 110mph to backup the 220rwkw/300rwhp on a stock turbo to my knowldge anyway.

EDIT: Obviously with no2 and so on that changes the ball game, so does race fuel.

Hey mate.

I did make 220rwkw and it was still going over a year later. As nismoid has raised, I never did run it at the track but the 220 was very real. IE no tuner influence or funny air temps. It can be done, but just be aware that u are pushing the limit of turbo reliability.

good luck,

glenn

i have a dyno graph but it wont let me upload.........

Ash 12psi is the "safer" boost limit for a std turbo, but it doesn't mean that some std turbo's aren't able to run higher boost without exploding. It's a game of Russian roulette, as some turbos just come out stronger than others during manufacturing.

At 12psi i have seen these turbos make anywhere between 180-210rwkw. Push the turbo harder and you may make 220rwkw/300rwhp, but it fast runs out of it's efficiency range, hence why 4psi extra may only make an extra 10-15rwkw.

I know of someone who was making 220rwkw with the stock turbo, it ended up spinning apart and bits of metal went through the intercooler and into the engine, now he has to get a rebuild.

Make sure you get the turbo high-flowed. The ceramic parts are just to weak.

How did it get in the engine?? The ceramic wheel is in exhaust side of the turbo. Hence you would find the broken parts in the cat.

I'm not exactly sure how it would work, but when his turbo blew bits of it got sucked though and into the engine.

Guessing(using my head too..!) here, ....

.....but as the turbine disintegrates, this will cause a sudden huge loss of forced air volume on the compressor side toward the inlet, the engine will pull anything in(as avacuum state exists in cylinder/s), .. from ANY side, inlet or exhaust, and given there is valve overlap, and late closing exhuast valves in the equation, this would leave the door to take in 'nasty bits', wide open.

It has got to be something like this i guess. I have yet to have it logically explained, ...so this is my 'stab' at it.

TBH.. just a small amount in the cylinder/s will make things get expensive too.

I suppose logically it should spit it out the 'zorst, but historically this is not the case.

You hear the tales about it, and the result products,.. but yeeeeap, someone correct me if am wrong... enlighten me..!

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
