Yes, I'm currently making about 260rwkw. Thing is with sending off my turbo for Stao to modify, I live in Perth... So that's a huge down time for my daily confused.gif

I've got the G2, .64 housing. It's still just as quick, it still scares the pants off any mates that get in my car. It's just that I'm used to it now, 350rwhp got old quicker than I expected :(

No E85 in Perth, not at the pump anyway. I know forging won't give more power haha, I meant that when I can afford it I might forge and go for 500+.

Get a bigger rear, or get water meth injection and give it more boost and more timing!

If you are bored with the power take the car off the road for 2 months, it will be even faster than than when you first put the turbo on.

My car was off the road for 5 months, when I got it going again f**k me dead it was amazing, the handling was the first thing I really noticed but the power was scary after driving a 1.3L barina for all that time.

So the SS1PU makes 260-280kw depending on boost on the status dyno but I cant find any results on any other dynos or from actual customer cars.

I have ordered an SS1PU and im a little worried that it will not perform as reported. The only result I see in Sydney is from Sarge and thats for an SS2 with some setup related complications.

Can anyone share their SS1PU results on a dyno other than from status?

Dont have a dyno printout yet but 232rwkw on 14-15psi before coils started to breakdown.

(this will give you some idea of potential of the PU)

when new coils & plugs inserted will get retune to fix boost up to 19-20psi and will post up dyno

Before going for the next tune, Please drive pass and swap for a 20psi actuator once you have the coil packs fixed.

I'm waiting for Stao to finish up on my SSv2, hopefully it should be through to me late next week. Install and tune should be done the following week, I'll post graphs as soon as I have them.

I'm running:

Blitz return flow

Trust PE II

3" dump + front pipes

Walbro 255lph direct wired

HKS pod + z32

4" Hard metal intake pipe

Bosch 1000cc's

MV Automatics Stage 2 kit - valve body + welsh plugs

Will probably end up needing new plugs and coilpack

Thanks mate,

Was this with the latest SS1PU or another model?

Status/Chequered dyno is about as accurate as you'll get. Conservative ramp rates and up-to-date correction methods means it will be very similar to DD results etc. I know that within melb, there's less than 5rwkw diff between the major DD shops and Trent's dyno.

So the numbers are very accurate.

I FEEL THAT THIS RESPONSE REQUIRES CAPITALS SO HERE GOES.

STAO/HYPERGEAR YOU HAVE SOME F**KING EXPLAINING TO DO

JUST GOT MY CAR DYNO TUNED - 306HP ON 14 PSI :@:@:@:@:@:@:@:@:@:@

MODS - ATR43 SS-1, JJR 3" BELL MOUTH DUMP, SINGLE CELL CAT, HKS HI POWER CAT BACK, JJR TURN FLOW INTERCOOLER, SPLITFIRE COIL PACKS, K&N PANEL FILTER, 3" STEEL INTAKE PIPE, TURBOSMART TYPE 3 PLUMB BACK BLOW OFF VALVE, WALBRO GSS-342, TURBOSMART BOOST T.

NO MATTER WHAT THE TUNER DID WITH THE BOOST CONTROL IT WOULD SPIKE TO 20 PSI THEN HOLD 14 PSI TO RED LINE.

TURBOSMART BOOST T.

Get rid of this piece of shit and it will not spike. They should be called turboSPIKE boost t. I've never seen one work properly, even on the lowest setting with 5cm of hosing they caused spiking on my turbo.

Also lose the attitude you sound like a spoilt kid with that post.

I dont know how its Stao's fault. lol.

If it spiked at the top end it would be a different story. Perhaps you should sort out your boost control issues before defaming a business.

All of this. Especially the last part.

However I remember what it was like when I didn't make the power, I blamed Hypergear straight away too. Get rid of your craptastic boost controller and see how things go. 306hp @14psi isn't bad, these turbos only really come alive with higher boost. I'm sure you will see the power. don't start going off at Stao though, the man is legendary in going out of his way to help you.

I will blame him. The turbo has a 19psi actuator on it that he recommended and we only put the boost control on to try to keep the boost up. Without a boost control it does exactly the same thing. That power figure was without the boost t. From the day I received the turbo I told him it wouldnt work and he has repeatedly said no it's fine. Obviously it is not fine. If it was a boost control issue do you think I would be ranting about him.

Either a boost leak or exhaust leak would cause a boost drop that dramatic.

Can you pressure test the intake system and confirm you have no broken exhaust studs etc?

The turbo probably is fine and it is a set up related issue.

There was one on my Soarer when I got it, spiked to >20psi at 1/4 throttle, first thing I did before driving back to canberra was rip it off.

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
