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.

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
