Those wastegate studs you are inserting will reduce the area of the wastegate making boost creep uptop same as if you've got an wastegate that is too small. Except the extend of creep is fully controllable. Insert a stud at once. Method is debatably but I've used it quite often at trents and it appears to be working well.

Also an update. This is the very first billet SS1PU core that we high flowed into a M35 Stega's OEM turbo for a Scotty's customers. The car made 300rwkws on the auto with E85 at about 20psi of boost. I'll still need to take acount in modifying the OEM wastegate assebly on those for better boost control using this core. Will upload dynosheet later.

hey there im the one u did the turbo for, car is just on caltex eflex not e85 so there is abit of room for improvement but i wont be taking that path scottys going down that path :P mine was actualy done in 4wd not rwd as i didnt have the shaft out as im a lazy bastard im very happy with how it came out its not laggy at all and ive been driving it heaps done 400kms already and it drives very much like a standard car cruises well etc but with the boot into it its just insane very happy with the result of it, i got a little vid of it as it was ramping up on the dyno it got to bout 306-307kw from what i can see but it averaged out to the above dyno graph which im more than happy with as i dont want to blow the driveline thats why i didnt want more boost into it. but none the less im extremely happy thanks again to sao and scott for all their help

Further update on the SS1PU Prototype:

This is latest design using FNT .G3 turbine housing and I've trailed it with a SS1PU core. The aim is for better consistency as larger turbine housing don't creep as much heat.

After tailing handful of different FNT nozzles arrangements, this one generated the best result. It has slightly more down low, same power but much heavier punch. I'll be using this on the G3 core next, and hopping to see 300rwkws on pump with much better response.

This is also the first result based on my new Adaptronic plugin ECU, as I've removed the Nistune with Z32 AFM. Big thank to Trent contribution extra time getting every thing running 100%

Will be retuning elusivitys car tonight with the mods Tao has recommended to help hold the boost up high RPM. Let u guys know tonight

What else did recommend besides the wastegate extension?

Interested to see if it can help hold boost up top!

Actually rather than the wastegate extention he recommended 2x M8 @ 50mm allen key head bolts to replace the grab screws in the rear housing, he reckons the theory is the same, more clamping force on the actuator, should keep the wastegate closed later and help hold it up at the top. For $1 each, it'll be an awesome upgrade if it works!

Im fairly sure the grub screw reduces the effective waste gate size by blocking some of its flow path

Stao should jump in right about now lol

My fully sick JJR strut brace doesn't fit back on with my PU highflow (even when i bent the shit out of it) because all of the I/C piping sits about an inch higher than stock...

Anyone know of an R33 strut bar that has more clearance?

Cool story, right bro?

I think you've done something wrong...

Custom piping would have been easier, or rotating the housing if possible to help fit the stock pipes? I don't think bending the strut brace will help much. lol.

Some updates regarding to the Electric turbo. lol.

Now running duel roller bearing with 44V 6KW motor spooling up to 48000RPMs. Its makes very strong thrust. If i'm holding it on a skate board I'm pretty sure it will push me forward. Should've thought of making it into a back pack for a bicycle.

Since its working I'll be testing it on E85 in about 2 weeks time.

Well, thank you for the productive feedback. I think (and am happy to be corrected) that the turbine housing on this turbo is a different size/shape than the standard one. It seems to me that this difference in size/shape has caused the compressor housing to sit higher than the standard one. Thus, the outlet elbow and crossover pipe also sit a little higher.

But you're right, I've probably just assembled the whole thing upside down...

Yeah, i was going to clock the housing however the actuator mounting prevents me from moving the housing around the amount I need. The bend in the strut brace almost worked, but it became too short to line up with the strut-top mounting holes! ;-)

So I guess the question is whether it can sustain a positive manifold pressure and, if so, whether it drains more engine power than it gives.

No need for the sarcasm mate. I'm using a much larger turbo than you and my strut brace fit fine. You are also the first person I have seen complain of this problem, ergo you've done something differently to everyone else. Unless Stao has positioned the housings wrong.

What elbow are you using from the compressor outlet, silicon? Can you upload a picture to show what exactly the problem is, maybe I'm picturing it wrong?

    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
