Nismo_Boy Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 I’m not having a go at you Brandon; just the power you are talking isn’t cheap, but is easily attainable. 550cc injectors are just far too small; who ever told you that needs to step away from the product catalog. Refer back a few pages and read the conservative break down of power conversions. Basic rule of thumb is 550cc are good for 550hp at the fly on or near 100% duty cycle. I ran 1000cc's when I was only making 600rwhp, because I'm friggin anal.

Nismo_Boy Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 I wouldnt run 800cc after reading about efficiency, unless you have plans for further upgrades. Buy a turbo BA Falcon if you want bulk power and still retain 600kms to a tank of fuel. My 490rwhp R32 (1.5bar) 250kays per tank highway driving My 600rwhp RB/S13 Same sort of boost about 420 - 450kays per tank highway driving.

Alas my preference is towards air boxes, obviously. Does that mammoth Japanese R31 specialist do anything like the ARC boxes? I can’t even remember their name?? R31House? R31Shop. Either way they’re cars make me quiver.

Brandon Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Yea I'm with you and I know its easily attainable at a cost. Not counting the odd cases (you giving afms away), that list would be close to 4k just for material. It comes to cost. Look at Dan! He said he spend close to 20k on his car already. And for me to have that kinda money, I'll probably put it into the house or get an investment property... to each his own and maybe you're right on the injectors. I said before all these are from reading but if your experience tells you other wise I'll keep that in mind because from your personal experience (just as I did for savman's advise). Just as your view on gavin and matt (thats in my mind already so if I ever do get it retune, it will be pit).

Brandon Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Whats the difference? I always thought airbox are something you used to cover the pod filters which sorta affect flow but will keep the cops away. Or are the pod filters a replacement of airbox...?

Pod filters replace the air box, but you can get these epic cool box like covers that sit over the pods – I have no personal experience with these.

Just as your view on gavin and matt (thats in my mind already so if I ever do get it retune, it will be pit). Oh yeh it accumulates up very quick. There is always cheaper options however, 2x rb20det AFM’s are meant to be a good conversion – But no personal experience. You can buy known good second hand injectors from known forum members, spend a few bux getting them sonic cleaned to insure they are perfect etc. Just a case of seeing what is forsale at the time for what price, then looking at what online traders offer and weigh up the price short fall. Online shops are kings – No over heads, smaller price. Barter hard. Taz is getting onto to some good industry suppliers now, so maybe have a chat with him as well. Best price win’s my sale is what I use.

I dont think you'll be saying that if you've gotta pay 3k a month for homeloan.
