Realistically neither of us can say what will happen, were both just guessing. Assumptions based on an understanding of how the system works. You seem to think theres little that can go wrong as the high load areas are R&R enough to soak up most of whats going on. I think that the change in exhaust restriction (bigger turbine and housing) coupled with the change in compressor efficiency (flow from the wheel aero iteself and difference in housing AR) can result in the ECU reading areas of the map which are irrelevant to what its actually doing. Running at an AFR and ignition combo with will start to see signs of det relatively easily. I think it is far more complex than high load or low load, otherwise we would not waste money on expensive tunes. In my own case Ive had my car tuned OKish rich but with very little timing and it would ping its guts out the moment something wasnt 110%. Have also changed an exhast cam for a slightly larger item (both oem) and completely lost the tune. That tells me the sweet spot for a tune isnt 'thereabouts' in all cases and these things can be pretty sensitive. something I would prefer to advise people against. Not to say Ive never put a T28 on a CA18 and thrashed its guts out as is for years.... But its just not the advice I would like to give, given my other experiences and understanding of how the thing works.

Realistically, as long as you are within the bounds of the original maximum load on the map, there is no cell on the original maps that does not have a commanded air-fuel ratio and timing that is approximately correct, or at worst, really rich and retarded. The load is measured by AFM, so it's not as though the shenanigans caused by MAP sensing + engine/turbo mods comes into play. Nissan pretty much mapped all the load/rev combinations, and those that were inaccessible under normal operation (really high load at really low revs for example) just had nominal values in them. But you're not going to be able to get to those regions of the map with a bigger turbo anyway.

The one place where you can get into trouble is if you run off the end of the original map's load axis. In this case the ECU has no option but to keep using the commanded mixtures and timing used in the last column. On an RB25DET, these are rich and retarded, so should be safe. But if you push it past what the injectors can do, then of course you could lean it out. But that has less to do with the management than it does with fuel system constraints.

I think where we differ is our faith in the AFM reading.

You seem pretty confident in it but for me I see it as a harmonic sensor, not to be relied upon when changing the setup. I don't think the voltage from one setup to the next on the same AFM would be identical in reading per unit of flow.

Just FYI; we are allowed to 'agree to disagree' lol

Some further updates, for the billet SS1 and SS1.5 .

The current SS1 runs a 71mm cast comp wheel, the newer version will be running a 60mm billet wheel with blade edge extension, smaller hub longer and cropped blade profile. This 60mm wheel should have the equivalent output as the current 71mm cast wheel with lot less in weight. Targetting is around the 240rwkws mark on 98 with excellent response. This wheel is ideal for people with Rb20det and SR20det engines.

This is the SS1.5, the current 71mm compressor on the SS2 is rated to about 500HP, this 64mm wheel in theory should provide around the 470HP mark. I've packed large blades with extended tip on this wheel using a small 12mm center hub. Final goal would be 20psi by 3000RPMs using the SS1PU turbine while making towards the 270rwkws margin with very sharp throttle response.

I'll be intrested in a ss1 billet if will make 20psi before 3500rpm on a sr20det and still make 260rwkw on e85 how much will these be with a s14/15 housing

Just wondering 337 pages and i still think theres not one trap speed for a hypergear..anyone going to drag race with one?

cheers

Had new semi's fitted with the intention of hitting the strip, but my drivers seat broke so I didn't get down there before I left for Europe. Will be getting some new seats when I get home in January and then I'll go get a trap speed :thumbsup:

Stao is that SS1.5 billet wheel different to my SS1PU wheel?

Hey let us know how your ss1pu billet goes on your sr20det if it is 500rpm less laggier than my current turbo td05 and make similar power I'll get one

Waiting on results from SAU Nats

As soon as they are posted I can give you some airport drag results but it was fairly bumpy and rocky surface.

How much do the drags in Sydney cost because I could make it to them once my water meth is installed and tuned

This is little bit of a lolz result. That is a ATR43G2.5 used on a fully stock Sr20det with factory cams as a bolton turbocharger internally gated. 290rwkws on 18psi E85. Good power, bit laggy :P

Will do man. Will be tuned in Jan.

PM me if you just want to add me on FB, I update photos on my build every week or so.

Further updates on the Billet T67:

I've made one more version using the FNT turbine setup. And I guess the best part is this housing can be made to be complete OEM bolton to stock manifold and dump using all lines. So here it is a OEM bolton T67 how ever don't expect of getting external gated proper manifold result using this as a stockie replacement. The FNT version is expected of hitting much better mid range power band, I will trail both versions on my current high mount external gated setup.:

Standard Billet T67 and FNT turbine ended T67

Just wondering how that big compressor will go fouling the manifold..does it need a big spacer ??

Could you make one with a 3 inch Vband rear instead of that silly nissan design or would it need a seperate WG hole?

Lol...this pops up every 6 months or so doesn't it :laugh:

Well assume you have a proper exhaust system that makes no differences.

The FNT housing can also run on 3.5 inch Vband, its just matter of what ever bolts onto the back of it.

cool :thumbsup:

How much of a difference is it to use the vband rear rather then the Nissan style?

Better flow or performance?

yeah not a performance thing Its just ease of fitment..

Yep and then people will tell you they are about to go..then i will ask 6 months later again..lol

So G3 internal vs T67 internal dyno graphs will be interesting..

The if you run them on a stock manifold as a bolton none of them is likely to go pass 280rwkws @18psi. Its just an option so you can use it till when a proper setup or a proper bolton manifold come by. How ever the FNT ext gate version should have lot more meat in the curve compare to standard.

Also question for some Gurus. Will you loose VCT by installing aftermarket cams?

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
