Hmmmm shall I go eat my hat now???? what cam's and exhaust mani you guys running to get spooling that much quicker. I know mine is not 100% finished but I wouldn't have thought you could get it on the boil 1k rpm earlier. But obviously you can.

4" intake pipe, 4" dump pipe, ETM steam pipe manifold with 50mm external wastegate, stock cams, greddy intake manifold, Q45 throttle body, 3" intercooler piping/cooler. engine is also running 9.3:1 compression that might help a little.

Hmmm ok it's starting to make sense now, I'm running stock Neo exhaust mani and intake. 2 1/4" inter cooler piping. 3" intake. 2.5"Vband straight onto 3" dump and its internally wastegated.

I might fit my ex cam gear and pretension the waste gate a touch more. that Comp ratio would have a damn big effect too.

Cheers guys!!!

Hey, I got a Rb30/25 with a GT3576 and even on the 30 it still takes till 4500rpm to hit 18psi. sooo a 3582 on a Rb25 is deffinitly going to be slower.

Chris, you can't compare your turbo to a real GT35R. Have a look at Titans' GT35R'd 3L, that's what should be happening and mine should be pretty well the same :)

supprisingly docile. my missus car.gt35/.63 rb25. 252 ponams and a haltec made 340kw on 22 psi. was really boring to drive. no big rush just a smooth delivery. with quite abit of lag between gears.

(the t04z thats on there now has less lag between gears.)

made full boost just before 3500. but slowly. not nothing then 22 pound. it built gradualy from 2.5k

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
