nah not the OP6

its the recast version bigger wastegate hole etc

sorry no pic of the boost curve

it hasnt been fixed yet because Im tossing up if im going to buy a .82 external setup now that the turbo is off the car

ok ok update...taken my car to c&v performance today...waiting to see how it goes.

I'm interested to see what C&V do with it. He tunes my car. Ive heard some bad feedback on him, but as far as i can tell, he's very good at what he does.

No messing around. No chit chat. In and out. And despite popular belief, he has plenty of experience on Skylines/imports.

Just make sure you let him know you dont want it tuned to within one inch of its life, coz he'll do it. lol

They do a lot of drag cars, and like to get every last drop out of them on the dyno. If you gave him free reign, i have no doubt you would find a nitrous bottle in your boot :P

No messing around. No chit chat. In and out.

That foe some people is a bad reference on its own, as a lot of these guys will tell you they get an endless supply of people wanting to talk shit with them all day.

nnnnnnnnnnnnnn newwwwwwwwwwwwsssss update, ok back from c&v performance and im pulling a ripe 280kw's at 19psi....droppping to in high revs 16psi...due to weak actuator(i was told). any other fix to this????

now...they didnt find any leaks but i suspect...that the last time i pulled apart the intercooler piping and put it back together (after the last dyno) i am presuming it was fixed then.

now im looking to get a 19psi actuator which i have been advised will give me a bit more power throughout the top end of revs as its falling off.

ive got to say....INSTANT, INSANE, BOOST ALL THE WAY TO REDLINE .

my semi slicks are frying taking off from cruising in second gear.

only downside i see..is that im getting knock of 40 when giving it stick...?? is that safe???

i will post the dyno sheet tomorrow...thanks for everyones contribution and help.

i will tell you all how it goes once ive put this bigger actuator in...dissapointed in the hks actuator as its not holding that wastegate shut...

any advice or direction to a 19psi actuator would be great.

level of 40 knock is reasonable levels of detonation - check the tune or just make sure all is ok

see if backing out 1 or 2psi removes that level of knocking, if so it might need 1 or 2deg taken out on the map somehwere

keep an eye on it (covered in the PFC FAQ) at 60 the engine check light will flash

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
