R33GOD Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 (edited) hey guys just wondering. i just purchased a set of garrett 2860 -7's for my 33gtr and i will be using the stock ecu til i save up some more money. Question is.: would it run and be ok with 12 psi of boost with the stock ecu? also how would it go with these mods for power. just want to keep it simple and mild. internally stock gtr. pfc ( soon) cooler is bigger than stock 100mm thick+ hiflowed metalic cat 3 and 1/4 cat back + jjr front pipes apexi pods also can the stock gtr ecu be remapped? thanks pplz Anth.

Pattygtst Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 I am not exactly sure but i would say it would be ok to drove it only if you treat it nicely, no thrashing as the ecu might have a fit. It probably wont run very well. Id stick with the pfc i know you can remap the gtst so i am sure you could do it to the gtr. Try ringing a workshop if your not sure.

CSNet Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 It can be remapped, but I believe it's a good idea to wait until you get the power FC anyway. That way you only need 1 retune. I mean, unless you're really nervous about one of your ceramic turbos... just wait IMO. Occasionally they get sold on here for 600-$1,000 sometimes with a commander etc. Keep an eye out.

CSNet Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Most decent tuners can remap, but they'll probably tell you to just wait for the FC Assuming dyno tune, 200-500$.

Johnny Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Definitely go power fc; at least you will have a factory ECU spare for EPA 1500-1900 will get you the fc + handcontroller + tune plus you can always add mods and have a quick dyno tune to get them to run optimally Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/244159-just-bought-new-turbos-for-the-r/#findComment-4252223 Share on other sites More sharing options...
acsplit Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Remap or PFC but at least you could book it in vor a dyno checkup $120 - $150 and well worth the cash that will let you know if it will be ok Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/244159-just-bought-new-turbos-for-the-r/#findComment-4252336 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bumblebee Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 it'll run fine.. -7s r like N1 turbos anyway the comp will be fine.. im running -10s with my stock comp.. but only on 7psi lol but still! and it runs it with 272deg cams in n out and plenty of other work... sure its been remapped b4 to run bigger turbos in japan, but they werent overly massive... just under 300kw on pretty much 16psi... The stock comp remap allows u to stay legal somewhat... u could always argue its stock Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/244159-just-bought-new-turbos-for-the-r/#findComment-4252357 Share on other sites More sharing options...
