See the power dip at 140k's and have a look at the rich AF ratio at that speed.  Couldnt the tuners lean it off and make AF ratios more horizontal

Agreed, and i would of thought tilbrook's would have done a better job than that. :werd:

that tune looks like a stock ecu having a heart attack not a pfc tune! Preety piss poor tuning.

1.6 bar boost say by by to engine soon.

Your assuming that the powerFC has been tuned. Could it be possible that Grepin has just fitted the turbo and the powerfc is tuned for the previous turbo? or maybe it was tuned for another AFM and its running rich now?

I've got no idea when hes done what to his car but I agree that the afr are not the best.

Is the 2835 something that kicks in and pins you to your seat at 1.6bar? I went for a ride in a 300rwkw+ gtst and I wasnt impressed.

Jeez guys, some really really harsh comments here.

If you dont know, why would you knock an experienced shop like tilbrooks? Perhaps it would be better to ask questions and learn something. Want to make comments about the new tuner at tilbrooks, this is the same guy who got a 10second car into the nines by spending a few hours on the dyno!

'Perhaps' the AFRs are like that to protect from detonation? It is running some serious boost.

And why do you thing an engine wont last on 1.65bar? Boost doesnt kill engines, detonation kills engines.

And remeber, when thinking its not a very impressive result, its a GT28 turbo, the boost hits like a mofo (doubles in like 15kmph) and it has 200rwkw to around 280 rwkw there after, would probably waste alot of 300+rwkw skylines out there, easily.

the car would be nuts to drive, well done on a good result grepin, so when are you going to give us a seat of the pants review?

I think 270rwkw's is very impressive for a 2835. When other people are making that power then they can give it shit. Im sure hes very happy with the new found power.

As for the rich afr's its prolly like that to avoid detonation. So what.

Rob... maybe you should quit your job and become a tuner ? maybe not.

Read my first post simon, I asked if it was tuned rich to stop detonation and I'm still waiting on a reply. I dont see the point in running it so rich just so you can run more boost, surely the car would have more seat of the pants if you advanced the ignition timing and ran it a little leaner but with less boost but as you said simon I'm not a tuner... are you?

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.   EDIT:  Not my channel but i saw this and i know that is what i want (and i have exactly this)  
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
