ATR43 SS-2 Rb25det Stagea. Externally gated from stock exhaust manifold E85 fuel. Final result of 356rwkws @ 22psi on Dyna dynamic dyno:

Further testing and evaluation on the SS2.5 Alpha turbocharger, now using an 600x300x68mm tube n fine front mount cooler. I've attached two photos, note the tubing size inside the aftermarket cooler and factory cooler.

Stock cooler:

Using the new intercooler, boost tapering issue was resolved to some extend and the same turbocharger managed to pickup more power. Cooling ability however is not as good as standard, under comparison my intake temp rise by 10 degrees. I will be fitting an thicker 600x300x100mm cooler for further evaluations coming week.


Turbocharger wise, it is matching factory N1's responds but a lot more power. Pretty good to drive at this stage.



ATR43SS2.5 Alpha, externally gated on pump 98 fuel. Peek 330awkws:

Vs stock cooler using the same turbo:

In conclusion based on test result, the factory GTR intercooler is only good for up to 320rwkws on pump fuel, for upgrade, I would be recommending a good cooler that has a core size of 600x300x100mm.

All three GTR coolers are different, the 33 is best for cooling efficiency but worst for outright flow

My 105mm ARC cooler ( the best in the business) is about 4-6deg hotter then the factory 34 cooler but will happierly flow 1000hp

As I mentioned to Tao yesterday, Daz has made 500kw on a stock cooler and is heading for more. Not sure yet if he plans to upgrade his cooler this time around.

Yeah Ive heard of 450kw before

It isn't stock, it's 90 mm thick.

Weird that they're all different. How does the 32 cooler go?

And for people whom are switching to the ID 1000 injectors. The resister pack made for OEM injectors has to be removed. Big thanks for M35scotty on solving this issue yesterday. I believe he has some technical details to share.

The 32 is the best for flow but worst for efficiency, it is extrude honed and doesn't have the little fine fins inside the runners

You can tell the difference between 32 and 33 by the front of the runners, the 33 has a grove that runs along the runner which the 32 doesn't

That is something very simple and well known, simple cut the resistor off and solder the seven wires together then a bit of heat shrink and electrical tape and bingo high imp injectors working

One of his injectors had stopped working, after testing it I realised he hadn't cut the resistor pack off, one resistor had blown taking the power from that injector.

The resistor pack was much hotter than usual. Obviously it runs fine on the Haltech without modification, but overloads the resistors. Goes to show the Haltech runs some great output drivers.

Um, aren't the injectors on a GTR a negative trigger, so all the ecu has to do is earth them

That's the reason you remove the resistor, cause it's no longer needed and the high imp injectors will fry it

Sweet it should be better for e85 to a certain extent then as it doesn't need the efficiency that it would for 98

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
