just over a week to go,,,, place your bets now.....

on the 18th of october my baby hit 159.5rwkw with pod and exhaust...... this time it will be running at 11psi (unless its safe to run it on 12psi) and front mount..... whoever guesses the highest reading on my car on the day, exactly, will get 5 big mac's from me on Mc Happy Day.... only catch is you can only make one guess, it has to be on this forum so everyone can see, and it has to be posted the friday before dyno day so everyone gets a fair shot....

COMMON ITS MC HAPPY DAY!!!! ANY EXCUSE TO BUY BIG MACS

If its an R33 with a stock ecu and those mods maybe 172.7rwkw?? I dont know if a stock 33 ecu lets it run over 10psi without cutting out does it? My ecu would always cut at 10psi. I have same mods + PFC for dyno and track days on 10-11psi and it should hit over 190rwkw.

haha

you're doing what i did last dyno day

I made bets, 50c buy in, had like a mad $4.50 pot...

mine got WAY higher then we thought... people wanted their money back

178.2 :cheers: cause that's what I got :D

I'm gonna go with 168kw. No maccas for me if I win. Just give em the cash ;)

stock ecu is a funny thing....my old 33gtst with exhaust, fmic, pod, 12psi(or as start at 12 and drop of like all stock turbos) made 205rwkw...

end of june this year my new 33gtst with same mods except safc made same power off 11psi...209 off 12psi....and 213 off 13psi.....but now a few months later im hitting airflow cut and have to bring it back to 10psi....go figure....

should be interesting....prob wont have the parts back on from my recent travels to stock town after the boys in blue hit me with an inspection....will see how the week goes....fingers crossed i can get her ready...

hahahah are you the brendan with the silver r33 with the black bonnet the other day?????

also i turned my boost tee from off to 5 clicks and i went from 8psi-11psi, so i turned it another 5 clicks expecting it to be definately at 12psi and my gauges stay at 11psi.... i think your on to something about the standard ecu thingy....

also its my game and i'm placing a bet aswell,,,, i'll say 180.5 killer wasps at the wheels..... yum i like wasps

and somebody must know someone who doesn't need their power fc anymore????

I dont know if this is looked down upon but a mate of mine would like to come and put his S6 RX7 on.... I haven't been to an SAU dyno day b4 and was wondering if its just for skylines or if other ppls mates r coming and having a run in non skylines/non nissans? All good if its not allowed. Just askin

    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
    • Could be correct. Meter might be that far out. Compare against a known 5 ohm 1% resistor.
    • @Murray_Calavera  If I were an expert I wouldn't be in here looking for assistance.  I am extremely computer literate, have above average understanding on how things should be working and how they should tie together.  If I need to go to a professional tuner so be it, but I'd much rather learn and do things myself even if it means looking for some guidance along the way and blowing up a few engines. @GTSBoy  I was hoping it would be as simple as a large vacuum leak somewhere but I'm unable to find anything, all lines seem to be well capped or going where they need to be, and when removed there is vacuum felt on the tube.  It would be odd for the Haltech built in MAP to be faulty, the GTT tune I imported had it enabled from the start, I incorrectly assumed it was reading a signal from the stock MAP, but that doesn't exist.  After running a vacuum hose to the ECU the signal doesn't change more than 0.2 in either direction.   I'll probably upload a video of my settings tomorrow, as it stands I'm able to daily drive, but getting stuttering when giving it gas from idle, so pulling away from lights is a slow process of revving it up and feathering the clutch until its moving, then it will accelerate fine.  It sounds like I need to get to the bottom of the manifold pressure issue, but the ignition timing section is most intimidating to me and will probably let a pro do that part.  Tomorrow I'll try a different vacuum line to T off of, with any luck I selected one that was already bypassed during the DBW swap.  (edit: I went out and did it right now, the line I had chosen did appear to have no vacuum on it, it used to go to the front of the intake, I've now completely blocked that one off at the bracket that holds several vacuum lines by the firewall.  I T'd into the vacuum line that goes from that bracket to the vacuum pump at the front of the car, but no change in the MAP readings).  Using the new vacuum line that has obvious vacuum on the hose, im still only getting readings between -6.0 and -5.2.  I'm wondering why the ECU was detecting -5.3 when nothing was connected to the MAP nipple and ECU MAP selected as the source. @feartherb26  I do have +T in the works but wanted to wait until Spring to start with that swap since this is my good winter AWD vehicle.  When removing the butterfly, did it leave a bunch of holes in the manifold that you needed to plug?  I thought about removing it but assumed it would be a mess.   I notice no difference when capping the vacuum line to it or letting it do its thing.  This whole thing has convinced me to just get a forward facing manifold when the time comes though.
    • Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.
