How does the .68 T4 compare size wise to a GT30 .63?

3" outlet?

Sorry for all the questions lol just trying to figure out whether I should lump it with a custom manifold for a td06, use my TD07 or sell it and get one of these.

Plus im a bit of a geek when it comes to this stuff lol

LOL only just noticed the intake temp, went to post and you had already posted...

So dodgy temp correction and boost wound up so high the dyno can't even read, INTERESTING

this is a stupidly high ramp rate to smooth it out lol, don't doubt the power, just how smooth it is lol

I attempted to enter a negative figure into a DD Dyno to check correction factor but it didnt except it. I tried IT of 1 dergree C, 12.5 and also tried unplugging the temp sensor and got the following corrections. Wishful thinking but imagine if the dyno was removing another 10% from the figure... :)

Thats generally been my understanding - the greater the intake temp exceeds the ambient temp the greater the correction (inflates power) and vica versa (deflates power). So there is no correction where intake temp and ambient temp are the same.

After looking at the graph this morning, Chea though there was a bit more in it :)

Starting to lift the head at that power so we're gonna have to leave it there for now. Have the Motive drag challenge next week, after that put a Tomei head gasket on and a 6262SP!!

I'll start making the vid

awesome results PJ well done,

but

Look how the power drops up top....

Quick everyone should start hating precision turbo's like you hate Hypergears... :)

This engine doesn't have valve springs, don't think they'd be loving life right now. It would be to interesting to see if the power would hold flat then (some studs and a head gasket would help us too)

We'll log it @ the track for you :) Can't wait it should see close to 135mph trap speed!

  • 3 weeks later...

Well we've since replaced the head gasket in the S14, and while it was apart installed ARP head studs and a BC valve spring and a retainer kit, which has allowed us to rev the engine a bit harder.

The result was 392.3kW at the wheels with a 35psi spike which fell down to a stable 33psi.

For the guys who were sceptical before, we ran it at 29psi and got 367kW at the wheels. So there it is, the limit found of a 5557. Pretty crazy stuff really from a baby .63 exhaust housing!

If the weather is good tomorrow we'll be taking the car to WSID on full slicks :laugh:

Here are the sheets

And now for the Skyline lovers, here are some pics of the R34 that we're building, you can check out a full spec list on our site at: http://www.powertune.com.au/projectcars-gtr.html

It now features a BC 2.8 and Precision GT4271R ball bearing billet turbo, Powertune twin scroll manifold, hopefully we'll have it run in and tuned by the end of the month, then of course straight to the drags :P

Was not skeptical before... Was just noting that you had used more boost than you were claiming!

I myself am super impressed with your results, so much so that if you get your ass into gear and test a 5557 0.63 on a RB25 I would be very interested in purchasing as I'm just about to do a 25 conversion on my 32 this month and looking at a few options for turbos at the moment :)

Bit of an update for my rb25+5557 combo...

Picked it up last week (arrived in aus the day before) semi tuned.... still having dramas! Electrical/ignition, burnt the clutch the first night, no vct still, only 18psi atm on a verrrry conservative tune.

Feels good to drive with off boost, it starts making good power from 3k onwards.

I'm glad powertune has pushed this turbo to it's limmits... I wasn't going to push 30+ psi into my stock rb25. I'll see where we go at 250-260 odd on 98.

Yes the results are awesome, this time we turned it back to show that we were telling the truth about the boost though, as I can't show you the log on the Haltech... well I could but it's too much mucking around for a busy workshop.

As mentioned previously, we will offer free tuning to a donor RB25DET owner wanting to put one on a 5557 purchased from us. Don't be shy guys :) If we had an RB25 as one of our project cars it would be on it!

The turbo's and all other info can be found on our website.

And the 6262SP will be going on the S14 next after we race it, 40psi here we come. Wonder how/if the standard bottom end will let go!!

    • Ok i will get those 310mm. I found one but on a different site. This is the description on those...is it ok? Technical parameters: - Axle: front. - Disc type: ventilated. - Number of holes: 5. - Disc diameter: 310mm. - Total height with center: 54mm. - Thickness (new/min.): 30/28mm. - Designed for brake calipers manufacturer: Sumitomo.
    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
