Dont get a power fc to gain power, power fc just provides much more tuning potential. you might squeeze a few kw's out of it. What mods are you currently running?

errr damo, did you not gain like 35rwkw from a tune with a power fc?

Tuning potential = power gain, power delivery

i gained power coz i upped the boost by 3 psi.

hahahahaha

damo, so michael spend nearly 2 hours taking massive amounts of fuel out and tiding up your timing for no reason?

The way your tune was, if you up the boost by 3psi, you probably would have gain around 5rwkw.

160odd to 200 with 3psi, I wish it was that easy.

^^^^ lol, well i wouldnt spend 1500-2000 on a power fc and tune to get f*#k all results thats just wasting money. Mods i hav are fmic, 500hp fp, 3.5 catback, pod filter, platnium plugs, suspected highflow running 10-12psi mayb others but unsure. I kno that 220kw's seem high for mods, i hav copped heaps of shit from mates bout this so dont bothering telling me but its not like i asked the dyno to give me a high reading lol

The guys are using the "nistune" sytems these days for remaps. Technology has come along way compared to remaps 2 years ago etc. There wouldn't be much difference between this and a power fc in tunability, I chose the power fc simply for the read outs it gives and when you add more mods it is simplier to upgrade the ecu data via the hand controller.

This will give you all the information you will need about the remaps.

what doesn't help is unnecessary input.

put simply

Power FC: get it if you are planning on getting heaps of tunes or you want a hand controller with Live information

Remap: Get it if you want a cheap, quick fix and which does the same job, if not better with knock correction.

As above ^^

I recently became aware of the Nistune Type 4 daughterboard for the R34 RB25DET and had boostworx install and dynotune it. Got like 20-25rwkw without touching boost... a/f was sitting around 10.8 before the remap, and after shuan was done with it, it was around 11.8.

Highly recommend boostworx if you want to do it in SA, Shaun does around 2-3 remaps on skylines a week.

ok so i spoke to shaun at boostworx today and hav decided to get a remapped z32 ecu as he sed it is bout as good as power fc, the fc just has the hand controller which gives it a small advantage. Speedlab never got bak to me so i spose its his loss and my gain as i will end up with something a lil better in my opion

ryanrb35, if you had any idea what you were talking about you would stop going on about pfc being so much better that the standard comp... seriously! by you stating a remap as a "quickfix" ur kinda showing ur lack of knowledge! we do 5-6 re-maps a week on average, u cant beat pure facts!

im sorry jeff didnt get back to you man, he is a verry bussy man! lol

are you happy with the price of modding the vg30 comp? (adjusting all the wires and so fawth) jus is kinda going about it the hard way, but if you will be that much happier keeping ur vct then do what makes u happy! :D

have you had it tuned yet? what did it make? hopfully it turned out that u had a hi-flow on there...

      And if you want more power, more reliably, and cheaper, go get the Aussie RB... The 4L Barra and put that in instead.

      No cats will keep discolouring the rear bar. Sends white paint a weird yellow stain. Cut and polish normally gets it out, but you'll be doing that every fortnight I found.

      Both heads will be equally reliable or unreliable depending on what you do to them.  Stock the RB26 head will flow more. You have access to the stock intake ITB manifold on the RB26 cheaply which flows really well(1000hp+).   Arguably more aftermarket support for RB26, though in Aus we love our RB30 SOHC heads too.    The only downsides to the RB26 head is if you have a VL commodore and want to keep the SOHC look.  Where you may have an issue is drilling out the rb30 block for the bigger head studs but if you are building a big power motor you'd probably put bigger studs on the SOHC head too.  This is just about finding a good machine shop, sometimes easier said than done.  RB30 head worked can make big power just like a Rb26 head, so really it actually more comes down to what your preference is for your car.  People now even making billet versions of both.

      2630s work perfectly well. There is something to be said for just using the 30 head, as it saves all the pain of the conversion, still makes tons of power, still sounds cool, etc etc. 2630 will obviously make more power again, but the differences are not stupidly big. It really depends on whether you're racing for sheep stations or not. If it's dead serious, then it's a 26 head. If it's just for fun, it could go either way. But the 26 head and the effort to get it set up, etc etc, is part of the fun.

      I've been building a 26/30 for a few years now. I've had the head built with all the good stuff. I had a 32 gtr but blew it up and yes its all going into a vl but im looking for some advice from some RB nuts on pros and cons on putting a 26 head on a 30 bottom end is it worth it Works are as follows Head -Extensive porting 1mm oversized supertech valves Supertech double springs Supertech valve guides Supertech titanium retainers Tomei solid lifters Tomei 270 x 10.25 cams Head drain Bottom end series 2 rb30 block Cp ceramic coated pistons Eagle rods Romac balancer Oil restrictions  O ringed blah blah spent a fortune And will get a girdle because the 30s arent used to handling that much rpm Nitto billet oil pump Hypertune plenum 6boost mani Refurbed astra pump thats the cover for it in the boot I did have a precision 6262 but sold it because drag car life. Currently building the ass end full 4 link floater rear end with a 2 speed  But the dilemma i have is my mate rekens I should just stick with the 30 head for reliability. Has any one had any issues with mounting the 26 head ie compression blowing gaskets etc. Just looking for some advice from people who have gone down this route. Here's some photos. Blew the oil pump in the gtr and decided to rip the motor out at the time and do a full build only to find it had been a repairable write off so went down this path.
