Hamish is using Nismo 555cc from memory, maxed at 92% injector duty.

Go bigger, Nismo also have 740cc, won't max it out for what turbo you want to run (you're wanting GT3076R correct?)

Interesting....

I might get some 800cc's... Im thinking about getting the gtx3076 but I wanna run external gate, so I would also need a new manifold which is more costs.

So for the time being im thinking about maxing out the standard turbo, can someone tell me the max ill get out of it?

Maybe 200-220rwkw from stock turbo before the rear wheel doesn't cooperate.

and i wouldnt boost it past 14psi. after that the ceramic wheel tends to get messy as above comment mentioned.

Yep, anything substantial over 200 is pretty much the dyno. I wouldn't be going past 12psi either as already stated.

Even following that rule, it's still hit and miss. People like Paul have been running 12psi on the stocker for years, no worries, I've had mates turn the boost up to 12psi, put it on the dyno to tune it and go bang on the first run.

Mine lasted a while, probably over a year from memory, then it let go at DECA and unfortunately took the engine with it, so it's a pretty big gamble :)

My tuner turned the boost on my stock turbo up to 14.5 psi. I've size turned it down to 12 psi. Wont be going back there again.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
