Simple question, how big is yours?

I am doing a survey for an article and I really need some help..........

1. how much boost are you running

2. how many rwkw

3. how big is your wastegate

I don't care too much what brand of wastegate it is, but you can tell me if you like.

Thanks for your help.

Sorry Roy, I can't help you, I have never used GTR injectors in a GTST. We always use Series V RX7 Turbo injectors, they are high impedance 550 cc's.

Maybe someone else can though ................

Might as well stick Ben's R34 in here...........

1. how much boost are you running - 20 psi

2. how many rwkw - 290 rwkw

3. how big is your wastegate - Turbosmart 45 mm Progate

Next............

Thank you to the guys who have put up the 5 sets of data so far, I really would like another 10 or so. So if you know of anybody with an external wastegate on an RB, please give them a push to post their numbers.

Thanks

Hi guys, some interesting responses so far;

RWKW..... PSI.......WG mm

234..........15............45

235............8............35

250..........19............45

260..........18............40

270..........12............62

290..........20............45

309..........25............40

320..........20............45

367..........28............55

I would like a few more to give a decent sample, so prod your mates and get them to post theirs. PM me if you don't want others to know what you are running.

sydney kid, this is simply an idea i have, but yet to get any really tech imput on this. im thinking if it would be possible to run say 3 35 mm wastegates. which they open at different times. the only benefit ive been able to think of from this is simply if you want to run high and low boost you might be able to control the boost at low level smoother. just still its simply an idea not sure of the real benefits of problems that could come from this. or how to set up. sorry to jump onto your thread thought it might be worth mentioning here.

Hi guys,, I have received 10 replies for Skylines so far, I'd like another 10 or so. Just to confirm the formula. Then I will publish the findings and the application table, should be interesting.

    • Give it 40psi and send it to the moon
    • I suspect 550s are on the large side for happy operation with a stock/Nistune RB20 ECU. The Hitachi ECU doesn't love short pulse width operation, and the RB20 doesn't need much fuel at idle. Big injectors can be unpleasant. This could be contributing.
    • Yeah, I still don't know why the idle speed control can't catch the falling RPMs. In the Consult logs I see the AAC duty cycle rising, but suddenly it goes lean and the engine stalls. Anyways, the relevance here is the DW 550cc injectors are probably the same. So if OP has similar issues I would be tempted to finger those injectors as problematic for whatever reason vs the ECU failing for some reason.
    • Yeah, sort of blurring two different things together, aren't we? I just meant O2 feedback closed loop. I used to have a 0-1V LCD meter on my dash, wired directly to the O2 sensor signal. So you could easily see what it was doing. Normal running it would flick back and forth nicely. Slow down to an idle and it would keep flicking, as the ECU tried to servo to maintain stoich, but it would slow down as each swing happened until it would stay at one end of the scale. As I said above, the sensor heater is not enough to keep it hot enough when there is also little heat in the exhaust flow. Give it a blip and it would start swinging again, then peter out again. Meanwhile, idle speed control would run just fine, because unrelated.
    • It's not even O2 feedback, it's just simply when the ECU sees the closed TPS signal for whatever reason the idle will start steadily dropping until the engine dies. With the TPS adjusted to not trigger closed TPS it will idle at some ridiculously high RPM and something like 6 degrees of timing. In the absence of getting eyes on it personally and a lot of quality time doing diagnostics I couldn't tell you what the real problem was but it was interesting nonetheless
