What turbo are u replacing your t04e with?

mmm... it's as i thought then

Admittadly im not running a rising rate reg, but i surely wont be getting another 100rwkw out of just raising the pressure.

Can you get an extra 100+kw just by fitting a rising rate reg?

i would think that's quite optimistic.

And my replacement... looks something like a GT35/40 or something.

.

No. Sounds like your turbo is too small to get another 100rwkw anyway. It seems by the terminal and quoted power to be something around the size of a stock RB25 turbo.

I would obviously be adding more boost and what not.

Not just putting a reg on and expecting power.

And my turbo is most certainly not similar to that of a stock RB25 turbo, the 'quoted' power if you will... is on a quite low reading dyno.

Most R33's with 12psi (stock turbo) on the dyno in question would make 160-170rwkw... just to give you proportions.

Well, going off your terminal speed you aren't making anymore power than my R33 with a stock turbo on 10psi, given your car isn't any lighter than mine. That puts you around the 200rwkw mark on a properly calibrated dyno dynamics dyno in shootout mode.

Perhaps you are running too little boost to be within the turbo's efficency range?

*yawn* I am getting tired of repeating myself. I'm making 340hp (another car is making 350hp with a different turbo) and both of us are sitting on 70% injector cycle. I dont have a fuel reg just a bosch 910 fuel pump. neither of our cars seem like they are running out of fuel nor do the injectors report as being maxxed out, they are definately stock injectors as we had them out 2-3 weeks ago to be cleaned before we put the wolf3d v4 in.

That is more than likely...

we gave it a quick squirt on 15psi one day... and there was an instant 30kw gain up from 13psi.

But then they MAXED them out totally. (i do already have the bigger fuel pump)

Not worth me going a rising rate reg, so im getting bigger injectors anyhow.

But if rob77's are at 70%... and he has what 250rwkw.

it makes me wonder. Hrrmm...

Wat size are stock 33 injectors again?

and all these cars are all coming from perth!!

is there a bermuda triangle around there?

Is it possible the methods of measuring duty cycles are perhaps accounting for variations....

So schools in, how exactly are you measuring duty cycle when you say

I'm making 340hp (another car is making 350hp with a different turbo) and both of us are sitting on 70% injector cycle

I imagine the ECU is measuring the signal/injector pulse width and comparing that to the full range 100%.

Is it possible that somewhere in the Wolf ECU there is a calibration issue? (Pls dont sledge me...im asking a question, not questioning the quality of the Wolf)

Has anyone using a Power Fc, re-written ECU (mines etc), Autronic, Haltec, Microtech been able to see a similar duty cycle when tuning an R33 with stock injectors at approx 250rwkws.

Roy, I think if we were actually past the 100% duty cycle then the AFR's might start to show it:D I'm very confident it's accurate, it may have more to do with the injector drivers being particularly strong in comparison to other ECU's.

    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
