Love it. I was keen to bag mine but I just can't justify the cost right now. Because you have to factor in a massive set of wheels to take advantage of it and to finish it off. It woudl set you back at least $4K to do it right plus another $2K - $4K for wheels depending on your taste.

I would still love to do it. I think it really suits these cars as they are so comfortable. That car must have some decent compressor and lines in it to get up and down that many times so quickly.

Good call on the compressor and lines comment , very analytical of you :/

Apparently bags dont handle all that well, but I guess its what you are chasing , looks or performance.

Did the fast bags thing in my celsior a few years ago. was good fun going up and down, and side to side.

I had quicker valves than that Stagea. You need to have lots of air to make it go up and down a few times. I had some custom shocks made that were stiff enough to make it handle well

Compressor was VERY noisey and took lots of power. Plus most of my boot space. Air suspension is good, but you need to aware of the risk of popping a bag.

So i went back to the stock stuff. :P kept all the aftermarket goodies though.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I'm an idiot, my intercooler is rated for 1000hp. I had clicked on the wrong product. Knowing the delta P would be nice, but I'm doubtful I'll do it. Now as for an EMAP, that would be great and I'll get around to it eventually but from my findings in my last post, I'm considering a turbo swap now.

      You sir, big win tonight. Precision never supplied compressor maps in the past and Idk when they started, but it seems they only offer for a few of the older gen2's which is exactly what I have. I punched in some numbers and seem to have gone with the wrong turbo. 600-700whp isn't in the most efficient area and is close to the choke line. 800whp is well off the map. Punching the numbers into a 68mm gen2 turbo map is bang on in the center. Here I was thinking going smaller would shift the power band down, but in reality it would just make it so much worst due to my rev limit. I would have never thought.

      Increasing overlap will bring the torque down earlier (and make your idle sound sick lol). Worth a shot (if you dyno time) to experience a bit (providing you are confident your valves won't kiss your pistons). Is to just take off 5 degrees across the boosted area of the map, and then retard the exhaust cam let's say, 3 degrees at a time and then overlay all the runs with VCT on all the way and VCT off as soon as you make positive pressure. Ideally you would have a total of 6x overlays to looks at 0 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve 0 exhaust & VCT on all the way -5 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -5 exhaust & VCT on all the way -10 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -10 exhaust & VCT on all the way Just leave your O2 wideband closed loop on for all of the boost area & RPM, and hopefully there isn't too much fuel correction needed and the Haltech is fast enough to compensate (I do this, then apply the correction to the main table). Getting that overlay data should give you a good indication of what to aim for.

      iPad gauge cluster

      So, my main limitation here is that the car does not have an oil pressure sensor by default, just a switch. As part of my tune I bought an oil pressure sensor upgrade so I now have access to oil pressure levels and logging rather than just the boolean behaviour of the switch but this means I need to use the tuning app to display this value. So, this rules out using any other app on the iPad. The app will also flash when pressure drops which is a nice feature. I have replaced the centre screen with an Android one, which is awesome for Android Auto, but I think it might be too far away and out of my line of sight. I might add some gauges to it this weekend and just see. I guess if its just temp and oil pressure I can make them massive! 🤣
