Cat like catconverta? It has no cat it has been removed. VT has been turn off and on with no significant difference

Right now its a odd ball. Because alot of money has been spent on te engine to only make 275kw :D

Yes catalytic Converter. Ah ok no cat....hmmmm. Have you tried seeing if it makes more power when you disconnect the exhaust from where the cat used to be? How bad is the pressure drop over the intercooler?

Cam gears dialed in will be done next. However tuner has asked other tuners advice and they say if car makes 275 on 96 octane at 8psi. It should have no trouble making more power dialed or not. Im pretty sure the dynaPack Dyno is in rear wheel kw. I will have to ask about this?

96 octane... are you from America or similar?

Hub not equal to rwkw. You take the wheels off mate :D

275 on a HUB @ 8psi sounds about right however for a GT35. Anyway, that's not the main issue here!

If the timing is not correct mate, you can have issues making power, most certainly.

Shell and Caltex in NZ is 96 Octane. We have Gull and thats 98 Octane. But is over 1 hours drive away.. We were running up on 96 and then doing a final tune on 98. But never got that far.

definately not the plenum...possibly the plenum install if there is a leak...

how is boost through the pull? does it stay constant or drop off a fair bit?

droping the exhaust for a run is the best idea as is doesn't really cost you anything and can rule out a component.

you'd also want to have the cams dialed in as they are a fairly important part of an engine and can see a range of differing results... which cams have you got?

I have 1 Tomei exhaust cam gear. Im hopeful that changing this will do something. Also the plenum, i removed yesterday and have purchased a new gasket to rule that out. The Exhaust tip is a oem nismo er34 unit and has a restrictor in it. A Small Armour All Spray bottle it to fat to poke up it. I think its 2.25" Diameter. But still pressure test was 2psi so.. Will suggest losining off the exhaust front pipe

Gasket is two weeks off from nissan nz / jp. Some bit of a wait ;/

Im hopeful we will get everything sorted by next time round. Here are a few pictures now taken of the exhaust "3" and what not.

Bit of a over dose with Silicone on the plenum..

I will take care of the silencer pictured by taking it to an engineer to saw off the tip. Remove the silencer. Take out a pcs of the silencer. Pop it back in. Weld the tip back on and after alot of $ will be good as new

Ok um...but what cams do you have. As in what camshafts :rofl: 2.25" is bloody small! I think my exhaust is going to be too small for the 25/30 with a gt35r so 2.25 is pretty small. I know you say the pressure test said 2psi but I still think you should just drop the exhaust and measure the power output. Please :D

Fuel system? Pump? lines? pressure tested @ [given psi]?. What rail you using? are the injectors maxing out? is it IW or Ex?

Not he fuel pump and Injectors. Have a inside fuel guage ( greddy thing ) Tomei pump sard 800 or 850cc injectors. Maybe there Denzo.

Cams are Pon cams. Will see what happens second time round. 2 weeks away :rofl:

    • I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must me missing something? 
    • BRUH, one of the biggest mistakes of my life..... and i've had plenty ;[)
    • @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.
