I would gone different dumps, but for 300/320awkw it's not going to make much of a difference.

24psi peak, 8000rpm will be fine. Set the limiter for 8200 or so and fit a shift light to go off at 7500rpm.

You can do it with stock dumps, hell 380rwkw is no problem.

I put trust dumps on, the result overlayed with a car on stockers = same.

A question for the more knowledgable.

Wanting to know with a built RB26, supporting mods with -7's optimal RPM and boost setting PSI please.

Tomie Type A poncams 260 9.15

Chasing 300 or so awkws

Let me know if you need more build details

Turbo's will be out of puff by 7500rpm so you won't need to be taking it any further than that.

As for boost, set-up dependant. 20-24psi however expect the -7s to trail off to around 18psi by 8000rpm as again, they are just small.

They are on that early anyway you don't need to keep the boot in till 8000rpm :)

Which stock dumps though?

Starting with a 32, if you're after -7 power just stick 34 dumps on, for more power I would certainly choose different.

Trust being the same as stock is pretty shitty for the trust product.

As for running out of puff, sinista32 go back through this thread and look for the results I posted with dyno sheet and specs. That's a stock 73.7mm engine, you can see where power starts and drops off for yourself :)

R33 GTR. Go measure R33 and R34 dumps. You'll be surprised at what you'll find out :)

Maybe they were Tomei, there were bigger, but really didn't offer anything other than a different exhaust note to be honest.

They'd already dropped off 4psi. Probably another 1psi if 300-400rpm more was used. :)

Also do a graph with the tractive effort etc, they just start to nose well over unfortunately.

Of course they are still "holding power", mine was as well, but actually drive them and they feel outta legs by 7500rpm as both boost & torque are disappearing fast.

You'll just grab the next gear out of feel more than anything else.

Lol - just went to page one and read every post. Then got here and the graph was here.

I'm going to split difference and go 22 PSI and 7500 8000RPM.

Then drive by feel/sound.

Once again guys :cheers:

Why would you be aiming for 310kw with that motor, chuck on some -5s with better cams. Hell that motor has some decent parts in it to take a lot more than the figure you can achieve on a stock bottom end with those turbos.

Hey Dan. thanks

I'll drive this around for a while because it's what I have got (read cash strapped). I am sure I will get bored with 310kws.

Then when cash flow allows I can try to pick up a set of 2530's and different cams - perhaps by next christmas.

I'll search the forum for results on comparisons for the -5's and 2530's.

Lag is the enemy and i drive on the street mostly.

Having gone from -9s to -5s... Lag is indeed the enemy.

It was must more fun with the -9s on a a street driven car and in the hills (say 70-130km/h).

-5s IMO would be a bad choice and they are not as responsive, in between gears they are noticeably laggier too.

I also found I was dropping an extra gear everywhere to get more run. Where with the -9s you just don't because they were on earlier :thumbsup:

They don't have the big top end so they don't feel "fast", as they are very linear.

that dyno chart on this page shows -7 turbos making 22psi at about 4800rpm? thought they make full boost by 4000 give or take?

Yeah but "full boost" is a relative term, so not very useful. If that car was running 17psi boost, he would be making full boost at 4000, which is about right.

1. Just a dyno setting. Use it instead of boost.

2. As i said earlier mate you won't stop the boost dropping off.

They are small turbos, it's just impossible for them to flow that much as thier purpose is not top end :)

They don't have the big top end so they don't feel "fast", as they are very linear.

having gone from RS's to -5's on my stroker, they most definitely don't 'feel' as fast, but the car is alot quicker in 97% of cases. It's not all about what your butt feels... Just look down at your speedo!

We all can whack on a T88... But be belted off the line from a Camry!

My GTR is back from the tuners.

The figures read a little high im thinking - 329.8akws @18psi. Dyno Dynamics in shootout.

I'm told AFM is between 11.8 and 12. Graph has Lambda readings which I dont know the conversion factor on.

All in all not bad but from 4500 to 5200 i get what I describe as a miss/fluttering/flat feeling.

I can rev out of it/passed it - eventually but it annoys me greatly. This is generally in 3rd/4th 50% of the time.

Sometimes it occurs at lower rpm in 1st/2nd. (bit like boost cut actually)

RPM set to 8200 through the Haltech.

Be lucky to get to 6500-7000rpm under real load on the road. I expected to be out of puff around 7500 on -7's

New NGK copper bcpres7es plugs.

I suspect gapped at 0.8mm as using an experienced tuner. (Although I havent looked, yet).

New Splitfire coil packs and loom.

If you have some advice I'd be glad to hear it.

The graphs appear jerky to me, from what I have seen through this thread. ie. no smooth curve.

Told it's to do with not being able to get the Gsensor on an angle.

I couldnt get a printout displaying Power/RPM/PSI. Had to use km/h at the base :(

PS. I will be chatting with my Tuner first but I am curious and it's Sunday...

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
