damit, last time i asked that question to somone, they said, you shouldnt do it because you should need some restriction in your exhaust, but im running 12 pound and at about 4-5 thou, it flattens off, now im not the most knowledgable in the art of turbos, but could the standard dump pipe be whats holding it back and making it flatten off?

Def get a dump pipe.. pref bellmouth - have a look under the traders section.

Just a word tho - You might get some boost creep. I used to get bad creep, but that could partially be because i dont have any pussies in my exhaust. Fixed with an ebc and pulls 10times harder then with the stock solenoid or the turbosmart boost tap

^^ boost creep happens with poorly made split dump pipes, the wastegate flap fouls on the separator on the dump. Hence your boost goes UP with RPM.

You can't fix boost creep with an EBC, if your wastegate will only half open then boost will go up no matter what the EBC does. You're describing something else, like boost spiking caused by a shitty bleed valve (you set it to 10psi and it spikes to 12psi before settling down to 10).

does anyone know where you can get 3 inch dump pipes for an r33? also, is it worth installing on a 12 psi stock turbo with a 3 inch exhaust? cheers

Recommended upgrade.

www.justjap.com sell JJR 3" stainless steel bellmouth dump/front pipe for $199. Do you have a 3" high flow catayltic converter as well?? ...or no cat will do. :D

i would NOT use one on my car!

grab a justjap stainless bellmouth dump/front in one! and a 3" catco highflow cat from them, those two together were the best money i have spent!

    • How many of you guys run the synchro os giken set and at what power? Do you then also use the billet plate?  How is it launching with it, any dragy times from 0-60? 60ft?
    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
