Other thing is the turbos are REALLY laggy.

I get 18psi by 6000rpm and power drops off completely at 22psi at 7500rpm so theres no point revving past there...

Has it been tuned? If it has I'd be finding someone else to tune it.

I think this is your issue as well.

Is the engine healthy i.e. done a compression test as this could be the source as well? Your tuner should have diagnosed if there was an issue from the onset.

It can be low reading all it likes. 18 psi at 6000 rpm then falls over at 7500 is the issue.

This is the dyno chart. If you could interperet it that would be great.

Sorry its not in RPM. If it helps, I've got an RB25 box and 4.08 gears.

R33GTR motor. 155PSI compression on all 6

2860-5 turbos

255L walbro pump

Nismo 600CC injectors

RB25 box and 3.08 diff gears

Coppermix clutch

STD r33 GTR FMIC piping

Power FC D Jectro

Greddy Profec B

8psi actuators

Is that what you need to know?

What turbos are they?
What's the rest of the setup?

Also need exhaust details. You should have minimum 3.5in with metallic matrix cat. Take a look at the RB26 sticky to see what you should be getting - something is seriously wrong with your result. Injectors might run out of puff if they're not clean.

I'd have thought cam gears wind a bit more response in and not a whole heap of power. Regardless... something in my current setup is very wrong without buying new stuff I think.

Depends which way you turn the gears.

Here is a question for you rev heads.

My build comprises of the following:

Tomei Advance Spec RB26 (long engine) spec are here http://www.tomeipowered.com/BTE/index.php/2011/04/28/rb26-complete-engine-advanced-spec/

Garrett 2860R -5s (ex. housings lightly ported)

HKS actuators (set at 1 bar each)

OEM ex. Manifolds (ported)

Mines dump Pipes (Pipe diameter: 70φ)

Midori Ti front pipes (80φ diameter)

Catco Race Cat (3' diameter)

Tomei Ti Expreme cat back exhaust (3.5' diameter)

HKS fuel rail

HKS 1,000cc injectors

Tomei fuel pressure regulator

SARD Intank Fuel Pump (280ltr p/h) (in bold because I believe this will be a weak point)

Nismo Plenum

Cooling Pro I/C (100mm)

Apexi Power FC + HC

To be tuned on E85

Boost say 20psi

What power do you think I should make? and do you think that choice of -5s is appropriate?

Why have a 3 inch cat ? Make it the same size as your catback.

I thought that would be restriction....where can I get a 3.5in cat back from?

And why only 20 psi. IIRC, those Tomei engines are 8:5:1 (correct me if I'm wrong). 24 on pump fuel!

20psi was just an estimate

Advance spec is 8:4:1 (same as Tomei 2.8 Genesis) if that changes anything???

    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
