Just realized they said there was boost control issues so I guess that would be affecting power up top a fair bit as well.

If it was holding boost to redline I still think itd be 250+

I wouldn't expect it to be hitting 270kw on 20 psi with a 15+ yr old motor.

Wait for the charts gentlemen, no point speculating over power figures or what's responsible for them until we see what the engine is doing. As JEZ said, there's probably a bit more in the turbo if they take the time to sort out boost etc. but for now Kasko should be pretty happy and he looks to be.

Very smooth. Boost tapering off = another 10-20 if you can get it to hold without the engine pinging?

Full boost looks like high 3000's / 4000rpm, I'm guessing.

Need ebc to hold boost up top. I'm testing a little mod this weekend and hopefully that changes the boost behavior up to.

Already got a profec b spec 2 installed in it

This didnt help with the tapper.

Seems the actuators are not up to holding the 20psi consistently

Also as DVS said it seems my clutch is either on its way out or needs a bit of adjusting/bleeding

The car feels phenomenal when it comes onto boost and spins 2nd without hesitation cruising.

Next step is a CAI and a box for the pod filter might help a little.

We did back to back power runs on a safer tune and only lost around 1-2kw

Is that same turbo you have birds?

Yeah man.

How bout that! :)

What size tyres you running?

Assuming it's 4.11 diff ratio and normalish sized tyres is nearly at full boost at 4000rpm with 180rwkw

Not exactly comparable with a GT-RS

180rwkw @ 4000rpm IS comparable to a GTRS, I agree.

Forget about where it hits full boost etc etc. The power @ RPM will tell you what its doing flow wise, which is what counts.

Every decent turbo makes 180-200rwkw at 4000rpm on a RB25... It can be a T67, 3071, 3076 or HKS 2835pros, they all do it

It's what happens before and after then that makes the turbos different!

Yeah, so doesnt a GTRS do roughly 180-200 @4000 and end up around 250 by 7000? LOL

So its more or less hitting GTRS benchmarks, OK glad we agree. :whistling:

If the turbo can hold boost for the upper RPM, there's no reason it can't make 260-270 IMO, so no it's not comparable to a GTRS...it's slightly better :P

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
