I am looking at an rb26 cylinder head for the rb30 twin cam head conversion.

I noticed that a place can do CNC head porting on the head, here are the flow figures,

Number 1 = modded intake

Number 2 = stock intake

Number 3 = modded exhaust

Number 4 = stock exhaust

I haven't seen any other figures to compare it with, if someone has them could they please let me know so I can compare.

Wow, that does look amazing ! Wonder how much they charge !!.

I have a word doc with all their prices etc it is not that unreasonable.

Interesting they remove or "condition" both pads in the combustion chamber.

I think you'll find that 1 is stock intake, 2 stock exhaust, 3 modified intake 4 modified exhaust. An RB exhaust will never outflow the intake except at very low lifts. Later Mitsubishi Evo heads do for part of the range though.

They're good numbers, That looks like Audie flow software, who is the head from?

I'm confident it would be @28".

You see above #1 it says CCFM, that is calculated cfm which with Audie software is either at 10" or 28" water and if the head is flowing those numbers at 10", multiply them by 1.67 to get flow @ 28" and you have a head that flows 511cfm @ 28" intake @ .5" and 392cfm on the exhaust at the same lift.

That's in the range that a 500cu/in pro stock head flows @ .8" lift and makes around 1300hp naturally aspirated @ over 9500rpm. On an RB26 it would have a sweet spot around 20,000ish rpm..

They are very good exhaust numbers, what sized valves is the head the data is from using?

    • Does anyone sell a pipe that's made to go from the Greddy FMIC kit for ECR33 (RB25DET) to the Greddy intake manifold? 
    • Not that I know from experience, but in theory you'd want your gate spring to be as close to target pressure as possible, so you'd go with the higher gate spring?
    • Before I commit to it as I already have the wastegate off the car, would you change it to the 9psi spring instead of the 12, or whack it back on now and try your suggestion?   Edit: Actually I might just swap the spring and see what the logs say after another few pulls, as we know it's still spiking without the Mac valve in the picture so I need more data without the Mac valve trying to combat the issue.
    • Sounds good Hmm suppose the main thing is, how much do you care about this car? The filler doesn't make for a very good water barrier lol. If there was a tiny little bit of rust forming now, that in 3 to 5 years time becomes obvious under the paint (starts to bubble up), would it bother you? 
    • I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.
