not sure if this is the right place for this but anyways if its wrong correct me please

anyone has any nistune upgrade on a rb20det engine with stock internals. what extra have you done to gain like 300hp or so? intercooler, turbo, injectors, waste gate, fuel pump and .......... what next .

any one with this board and program no longer using and willing to sell me so i can feel that power?

put something in place of the cams plz dont want to add the pulling of the engine in the recipe

thats just wot im running to get that....

you get get same results minus cams with same setup just add more boost 2-3psi id say but pushing the turbo to its limits.. if not 2530 garrett 2871r - but it a bit more laggy but bit more power

not sure if this fit right here and makes sense

after removing rom chip from ecu and installing type 2 board etc. will the car be able to drive to the tuning shop or have i lost everthing pertaining to moving the car

can anyone give me a detailed description from start to be able tomove normally? even if i let a shop do this i like to know the pros and cons of this.

Sorry don't know how it works exactly, but in my case

Took out ECU and sent away

ECU came back with Nistune board and retained all maps which were in my stock ECU

Drove it for a week with no probs

Took it to tuner to tune :-)

INTRODUCTION

Base Image Programmer

All NIStune real-time boards require the “base image” to be programmed before they can be used. This is

normally done during manufacture – and cannot be changed by the end user.

Professional tuners who purchase multiple boards may find it necessary to change the base image, so we

have made the programmers available for this purpose.

JUST A LITTLE EXTRA READING

Not wrong there! I sent my ECU up on a thursday to my father in-law to remove my Mines Chip, we got it the Friday. Took the day to remove all the epoxy and still had to cut the chip out! Gave it to Pete (half of PLMS) who works on the desk next to him, Pete checked out the Mines map which was leaned out in the higher revs, speed cut removed and had 4deg of timing added across the whole map (yes that is all Mines did) then he fit the NIStune board and sent it all back to me very well packaged on the Tuesday. I got it on the Wednesday. Overnight delivery Via registered post from SA to VIC = AWESOME!

Get mine tuned on Friday at Status Tuning, can't wait. Have the cable and software on my spare laptop too, it's very cool stuff.

    • Well it wasn't as easy as I thought.... and it also wasn't in my original manual which I did end up finding. They discuss the process in the Nismo catalogue though and it requires slight machining. Page 145.  NISMO PARTS CATALOGUE 2020
    • I'm an idiot, my intercooler is rated for 1000hp. I had clicked on the wrong product. Knowing the delta P would be nice, but I'm doubtful I'll do it. Now as for an EMAP, that would be great and I'll get around to it eventually but from my findings in my last post, I'm considering a turbo swap now. 
    • You sir, big win tonight. Precision never supplied compressor maps in the past and Idk when they started, but it seems they only offer for a few of the older gen2's which is exactly what I have. I punched in some numbers and seem to have gone with the wrong turbo. 600-700whp isn't in the most efficient area and is close to the choke line. 800whp is well off the map. Punching the numbers into a 68mm gen2 turbo map is bang on in the center. Here I was thinking going smaller would shift the power band down, but in reality it would just make it so much worst due to my rev limit. I would have never thought. 
    • Increasing overlap will bring the torque down earlier (and make your idle sound sick lol). Worth a shot (if you dyno time) to experience a bit (providing you are confident your valves won't kiss your pistons). Is to just take off 5 degrees across the boosted area of the map, and then retard the exhaust cam let's say, 3 degrees at a time and then overlay all the runs with VCT on all the way and VCT off as soon as you make positive pressure. Ideally you would have a total of 6x overlays to looks at 0 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve 0 exhaust & VCT on all the way -5 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -5 exhaust & VCT on all the way -10 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -10 exhaust & VCT on all the way Just leave your O2 wideband closed loop on for all of the boost area & RPM, and hopefully there isn't too much fuel correction needed and the Haltech is fast enough to compensate (I do this, then apply the correction to the main table). Getting that overlay data should give you a good indication of what to aim for.
    • So, my main limitation here is that the car does not have an oil pressure sensor by default, just a switch. As part of my tune I bought an oil pressure sensor upgrade so I now have access to oil pressure levels and logging rather than just the boolean behaviour of the switch but this means I need to use the tuning app to display this value. So, this rules out using any other app on the iPad. The app will also flash when pressure drops which is a nice feature. I have replaced the centre screen with an Android one, which is awesome for Android Auto, but I think it might be too far away and out of my line of sight. I might add some gauges to it this weekend and just see. I guess if its just temp and oil pressure I can make them massive! 🤣
