I normally test in 98 as E85 is not widely available at this stage. Run that fuel with a good tuner you can get a turbo spooling up 500RPMs faster with heaps more mid range and top end power. It also keeps the EGT low which makes the engine safe and happy.

I've managed 297rwkws with a bolton G3 on a Mainlane roller dyno and 303rwkws with same turbo at status Hub dyno on 20psi of boost, that was with a factory engine internally gated. I've made it but I can't assure that you can get the same unless you have the exact same mods done by the same tuner. The turbo it self is capable of doing it no worries.

400RWHP or 300rwkws would be the limit on pump 98 fuel, internal gated, on stock manifold.

Will the G3 or SS3 like having 24-26PSI choked out of it? I have a need to blow my 25 so the wife "Approves the 3L rebuild" <- By approved I mean has no choice but let me.

Car has been off the road for 7 months now and since i bought a scooter to get too and from work a daily is no longer needed.

Yes i think ile be doing that, honestly if it doesnt hit 400rwhp it wont matter, at 200kw it spins 3rd, just some tracks have massive straights and i cant pull 4th without it bogging down, most of the time 100kw gain = 1 more gear frying haha =P

You should get close. I'm making 393rwhp @18psi. Have asked my tuner to wind it up to 20 when he retunes it next week, so we will see how it goes. I think it should crack 400.

Its good to have documentation from all range of supporting mods working with the turbo. I will index them in the main page.

I've been taken some time off working on my electric turbo again. lol here are some latest updates:

The new charger runs of 44V 120AMP of power from a 2x 6S power source with RPM controller.

I've installed it on to a Daihatsu Sirion with a 3cyc 0.97L engine. This car makes from 0 to 100KMs in 21secs factory. lol

After appling the charger in 3rd gear full throttle it actually made the Speedo rising a tinny bit faster. There is a just noticeably acceleration gain with the charger is activated and not. I'm installing it on the R33 for dyno runs next weekend. hopefully making better result then the previous one.

Plus I'm working on a VNT .82 rear housing for the G3s hopefully getting SS1PU's response with 330rwkws top end.

I'm would be very keen to be a test mule for this.How long roughly till you have a working version as I have been searching high and low for a variable gometry Turbo. And would the cost be significantly more?

WIll have to control the Nozzles with an Actuator, and then another one for wastegate. So will need 2x actuators to have it working. The SS3 externally gated version is $1150, I would perfer if the external gate was run from the exhaust manifold. Will produce much better result.

Sign me up for the SS3 conversion of my turbo Stao. As long as it will fit on a top mount manifold. The manifold has an outlet for a 44mm Wastegate so it should be a good test bed for this turbo.

How long till you have it ready. I don't mind waiting a month or 2 not in too much of a hurry.

    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
