Can A Rb25 Turbo Produce 200 Kw?


Recommended Posts

hey guys :(

can you plz tell me wether a rb25 turbo can produce 200KW ATW as i dont have the room to go any bigger for a turbo as the situation with the rb20 squeezing into my car.

if not will high flowing or something else get it there???

:laugh: thanks for all ur help.

in short, generally speaking you will fall just short (190 odd RWKW) from previous experience with a 25 turbo on a RB20, that is if you are using the stock 32 computer with no remap on a healthy RB20 etc. If it is remapped you should pull just a tad over the 200-210 mark but there are so many varibles so i cant give u an exact estimation.

High flowing the 25 turbo will pull the power you want, however you will also get reduced throttle response (read LAG) from this higher flowing turbo.

short answer is yes.

long answer is not if you want it to last a while.

people have run the RB25 turbo on an RB20 with remap and almost 14psi to get around the 190rwkw mark.

that sort of boost and more is just asking for eventual trouble.

that stock RB25 turbo can be hiflowed for about $2K (ball bearing centre) and be able to flow enough air to produce around 240rwkw... but you will be left with more lag up to around 4000rpm where things start to come alive.

okay so 4000 rpm is there any way of dropping those numbers to a healthy 3000rpm???

the reason this is being done is because the motor is in a e30 and there is about 20mm from turbo to the chassis rail GAY!!!

and from that info u have been told there isn't much help but you may be able to help with this???

i want 200kw atw and will basically do anything to get it just check out the myspace for pics www.myspace.com/iamjarryd

plz help me :rofl:

MINE HAS JUST OVER 200 KW ATW WITH 850 INJECTORS LARGER FUEL PUMP AND A LINK EMS AT 14 PSI WITH THE STOCK SNAIL. AND YES IM UPGRADING MY TURBO WHEN I CAN.

okay surley u have done more than that like cams etc and what are link ems???

thanks

^^^ link ems (engine management system) is an aftermarket ecu. and i think he is talking about an R33.

just get a R33 stock turbo and put it on, run 13-14psi through it (wont be a problem on an RB20), get the car tuned and see what power output you get. if your worried about turbo clearance issues with the R33 turbo, dont. there is almost no external physical size differance in the two turbos (R32 and R33) its the internals of the R33 turbo that are bigger.

if you still dont get the power your after then get the turbo hiflowed. but i dont think you will see much change from 3500 to 4000rpm for full boost, even on a stock R33 turbo, which isn't that bad at all really.

should have gone SR20 dude..

with a stock S15 turbo bolted to it with usual mods it would have pulled 200rwkw and be less laggy than the RB20 with stock turbo

no 2 ways about it.

rb25 turbo "may" get you there depending on dyno.

a hiflow definitely will... but will increase lag.

yeah maybe but i also should have looked at dropping a supra enging in there to i know they fit but it was the money issue at the time

    • Trail braking done right, should have the rear unsettled, such that you're actually turning the car by a noticeable amount WITH the brakes, and hence noticeably less steering input.
    • No you don't. Just no more driving in the wet, and clean your window manually before you drive
    • I'm not sure if they tick your boxes, but Haltech would be my pick. I'm an Adaptronic guy from way back, and Haltech acquired Adaptronic to basically get Andy, AND his IP on how he does things like fuel modelling etc.
    • Just on this, as there's a huge issue in your assumption Dose.   The logic you've given, is the same logic old school NA guys give for "needing back pressure" in an exhaust. If you free up an exhaust system, and keep injecting the same fuel in etc, at the same timing, you'll typically drop power. Freeing the exhaust will often make an engine want a little bit more timing, and even sometimes a little more fuel, but then it'll make even more power.   There's many mods people do and "get no extra power" when running a comparison on the same tune. Imagine a car tuned for 91, but now we say put 98 in it, see no difference. But as we now have 98 fuel, you can run more timing, and make more power, as the 91 was knock limited.   So just be very wary in your claim of "don't retune it and do a back to back and you'll see". The correct approach would be tune the car with stock manifold, swap the manifold to aftermarket, and retune it again. But no one wants to do that, and all the results we get are "this was stock, and this is manifold changed and tuned" and people put it all down as just the tune doing it.
    • Unplug ECU. Unplug TPS. Unplug boost pressure sensor. Now, all the wires, placing your ground (black) multimeter lead at the ECU end, measure resistance of the 5V line at the boost sensor plug. Then do the same to the TPS plug. Then do the same for all the other wires that relate to the TPS, or boost sensor.   All of your measurements should be very very low. You're looking to see if wiring is out of wack here.   Secondly, from memory on the R33 (not a neo motor, so I'm assuming an r34) the ground wire for the TPS and boost sensor are NOT equal to ground of the car/battery. IE, DO NOT connect ground of the sensor to the engine/body of car. You'll get a ground loop, and/or potentially screw shit up. In electronics, ground for a circuit, is not necessarily equal to ground of another circuit.   So this leads me to ask, when measuring your 5V, how are you getting 1.5V? Where are your multimeter leads touching for both the red and black lead on the multimeter?   If you're measuring power on the sensor wire, and putting ground on the car chassis or negative battery terminal, that could be all of your issues in "getting 1.5v". Electronics engineers can do some funky stuff with circuits, and when both sensors are on, it's enough laid to alter how the ECU is functioning.
