Thanks guys,anyone run 300kw with -5s on a 1/4 mile with a time?

No one would buy -5s and run 300rwkw. Added lag for... What?

They are 360rwkw+ turbo, so you run them at 360rwkw... OR buy -7s if you want 300rwkw, or -9s if you want 330rwkw

Given that is what 7 pages of this thread is about, not to mention the other threads...

I understand the lag on the -5s but i was more wanting to know 1/4 miles times both -5 -9 running at 300kw.

The reason i ask is im running a stock bottem end and slowly building a motor to run 380plus kw and i dont want to buy -9 or -7 for 300kw an selling it of 1 year later for half the price,i do want to swap the -5 on to the new built motor chance its completed,there are numbers of people running 300kw even less on -5s,im on a very strict budget,and dont mine the lagg to save some $$

Not sure, maybe you missed this?

It'll be about the same. 300kw is 300kw.

Torque also plays a factor but for the most part it'll be close enough for the sake of the argument.

Same shit dude. It's not an issue of importance or one you will EVER get an answer to.

Car weight, driver, tyres etc - all far more important variables to worry about anyway.

Oh and if you are on a strict budget, hate to tell you but you'll end up blowing it. No-one meets a tight budget when doing a full build. It's just impossible as there are too many variables that again come into play.

will be going for the -5, pushing 300kw,No one is saying im putting chinese stuff on my other built motor,i was relating to the turbos that is where i can save money on,cos i do want to get 380kw out of the new built motor.

I don't get your point for, sounds like you want -5's just so you can say you have them, if you don't mind the lag why not aim for 400kw? If not go smaller. Your desicion is 300kw lagy or 300kw responsive....simple choice

He is slowly building his motor so running 300kw's with the -5's for now, and then when the motor is finished being built he will go for a higher figure :thumbsup:

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
