What brand of mufflers were they, Johnny?

X Force lol.. and the rear is Fujitsubo, will piss the lot off after the new turbo setup

Thanks all (Stao included) It goes for a retune early next year for e85 so I'll get it looked at then. What are the options for a more free flow exhaust? Would decat see some gains? Does anyone know how PWR compares to Plazmaman?

big dump down pipe ano no cat is best... easily gain 10kW with no cat

Hi stao.

Are you saying the new prototype 21u high flow is making 287rwkw with the return flow inter cooler on pump 98? If so that is good to here.

When will it be available??

Thanks

No, I've made 290rwkws on an ATR45SAT SRFC model, that was engineered to max out my Blitz cooler kit. That one is available.

21U high flow was using an PWR cooler, you will likely be seeing that making 250rwkws region on a return flow kit.

Mad, I'm glad you and I both reproduced the same results. Anyway to get a bit less lag Stao?

It looks like you are reaching 20psi by 120KM/H which is 4280RPM. This is a fairly large size turbo, can use BB CHRA which will get 100 RPM better in response, and having a 600x300x100mm FMIC can pickup some response also. Its making 20psi at 4000RPM on my R34. I'm working on a different turbine wheel at moment. I see if I can pickup the same amount of power with better response.

Thanks Stao, I'd love to see your results.

Have you come across the A/c drain hitting the dump pipe in any of your tests? Mine melted (completely missed it when fitting the turbo) so I chopped it but I'm worried the a/c drain will drip on the dump pipe now and crack it or atleast cause a lot of steam.

Took a short video about our Internal wastegate assembly operation that is currently fitted to all ATR43xx turbochargers as well as some of the high flows:

I've read quite a bit about the Blitz Return flow coolers and how the kits pose restrictions - from your investigations it seemed as if the conclusion was the cooler core was the issue with such a large pressure drop? I like the idea of the return flow piping utilising standard pipes in bay, if a 600x300x76 decent cooler such as plazmaman or pwr were to be used with custom piping similar to that of the blitz kits (potentially even the same size piping), is it safe to say this would be similar to say the set up you currently have in your 34?

I'm considering using the blitz kit for now until a turbo upgrade (down the track) then swapping out for a better cooler and having the blitz piping altered to suit. I eventually want a tad over 300rwkw on 98 but just want a nice easy cooler for the mean time.

Thanks for reading.

Along same vein but back to the 21u high flow on the r34. With return flow max around 250rwkw with the return flow. However, running e85 would that net you around 270rwkw due to the advantages re. Timing and knock resistance compared with p98?

Toshi seemed to think e85 isn't great in a car that is driven once a week (lose octane over the time and could get knock), but others on here seem to think it's ok.

Any thoughts? Would like ultimate response

The VP racing fuels E85 additive is claimed to do similar and also provide lube to the engine.

I'm considering welding my internal gate shut on my ATR45 in the coming months when I got for an E85 tune, going external gate etc to see if the boost control improves (I would assume flow improves as well with a screamer) - Any thoughts on this?

Just use Lucas Ethanol Stabiliser, pretty cheap and drop in 30mL at a time into your full tank... prior to my flex setup, I just did that and the car gets driven at most once a week, usually every fortnight.

Fuel filter after 2000km looked pretty ok, no extra deposits or anything but did have some brown gunk in it as usual.

As for running an external, make sure you vent it from the manifold to relieve back pressure.. running the gate of the turbo "may" be a good idea however the factory manifold is pretty restrictive as I've found out on the dyno.

The manifold and gate were glowing bright red and when I added in more timing the car wouldn't make any more power...

I'm in the process or moving the gate onto the manifold from the turbo housing.. hopefully should see less back pressure and allow me to dial in more timing.

FWIW I put in an additional 6 degrees of timing and it only netted 327kW, I pulled back 3 degrees and it made 325kW @1.6bar boost.

I have seen 430+ a few times on the factory manifold with the gate off the housing. Welding it off the manifold could work well if you can get in and die grind it afterwards. I doubt you will see much in the way of gains between them.

No need for stabilizer with pump e85, I have been on Caltex/United e85 for 6 odd years without running a stabilizer and never cleaned my filters or injectors.

Watch your timing, I much prefer more boost and less timing as you previously mentioned Johnny.

You need to put a 600x300x100mm cooler on. Or adding the gate makes very little differences in power. Then add E85. This turbo maxed at 420rwkws on Hovac's C34 Stagea.

This is an Duel ball bearing ATR43G3 SAT, Not the prettiest looking. But managed 317rwkws @ 21psi, full boost hit at 3550RPM. This is the most responsive turbocharger that I've ever built so far.

Final result was 317rwkws @ 21psi P98 fuel.

Almost reaching 20psi by 3500RPM, Currently at 3550RPM.

    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Comparison of the 2: Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
