Ok I've now fixed my air leak (loose hose clamp), changed exhaust and removed the boost control. Still getting 22psi dropping to 14psi by redline. Stao can you send me a stronger actuator to try.

Was that with the air box lid and filter off?

I couldn't suggest running without a filter. I had a 1mm gap between the gasket in my apexi filter and z32 and enough shit got in to damage the turbo fins. Silly idea. At least put a stocking over the box snuggly so at least you know some shit wont go in.

One run down the street should be fine surely? Just don't drive through gravel or anything like that. I'd be more worried about the sock getting eaten.

So has anyone got their SS1PU fully tuned with dyno results yet?

I got mine in the mail yesterday, should be fitting it this week.

Yeah, 260rwkw on 19psi, stock internals. Dyno vid is on youtube :)

Mods are on there also. I might have a dyno pic lying around too ill post up in a sec

Thanks mate - dyno would be awesome, esp with the boost. Does it hold 19psi all the way or run more/less in the midrange/top end?

Whats it like to drive?

19psi at like 3500-3700+ rpm, then dies down to 17psi by redline.

Stao mentioned i use the screws that came with it to stop the boost dropping, some sort of airflow changing method. Not sure how it works, but seeing as its a pain in the arse to get the turbo off theres no way i have the time to take it off continuously to see how far each screw needs to be turned for the boost to stay level. Not to mention the time it takes for the turbo to cool down enough to touch..

Very fun to drive, not the best top end acceleration but that's not what i wanted. This is my daily driver, so i wanted low end power and that's what i got.

Spinning wheels in first and second and get sucked in the seat :)

Keep in mind, those results were after a lot of runs, so heat-soak set in. I reckon on a cold day + first try it would make over 260.

Has anyone been in a car with a atr43 g3 and atr43 ss1. I'm considering upgrading from the ss1 to the g3 and just wanted to know what people think of the difference.

Do you need to upgrade or do you need to work out your issue?

IIRC your already making the projected power for the SS1 though arent you? Being 240kwasps

It's just a possible solution to the boost drop, stao has suggested the upgrade or a bigger actuator. But I'm deffinately not happy with the power but i don't think that it is the turbo. My tune is all over the place.

Do u have a dyno graph lilcrash?

I have done a g3 on a 34 but maxed the stock injectors at 232kw 19psi 6000rpm

And dynafits ss1.5 259kw 19psi with weak clutch

Has anyone been in a car with a atr43 g3 and atr43 ss1. I'm considering upgrading from the ss1 to the g3 and just wanted to know what people think of the difference.

I have had both on my car with exactly the same mods. They are completely opposite turbos. The ATR43G3 was over 1000rpm less responsive then the SS1, was a HUGE difference. I was able to make 280rwkw with the ATR43G3 and 245rwkw with the SS1. The SS1 is way better for the street, standard turbo like response. I now use E85 fuel and make 280rwkw with the awesome response.

On both turbos my boost would drop to 15.5psi no matter what I did, boost controller, wastegate studs etc. I found replacing my intercooler and fixing up the exhaust helped as now boost only drops to 17.5psi. So for me it was other restrictions in the setup that were holding back the boost up top.

If you wanted to go bigger I would stick with the SS range, either the SS1PU or the SS2. I thought the ATR43G3 was too laggy for a street rb25. The SS2 is around 3-500rpm more responsive then the ATR43G3.

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
