juddieR31 Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 (edited) For anyone interested in doing this conversion, I made 210rwkw and 475nm on Dr drifts dyno today @ 9psi with stock injectors, stock ecu & stock R31 fuel pump, cooler and high flow t3/4 Edited February 18, 2007 by juddieR31 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/33407-how-to-turbo-your-na/page/9/#findComment-2914544 Share on other sites More sharing options...

-=white-zombie=- Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 666Dan, how much boost was the turbo making from off idle? I've worked on a few RB25DE's which have had RB20 turbos fitted to them and they were practically making boost when idling. Massive torque down low but runs out of top end very quick... One of those cars now runs a fairly insane turbo/setup (still high C/R for response), makes about 300 rwkw or so, that was done nearly two years ago and its still going, really needs good tuning to keep them together.... hey man, i wanna turbo my r33 rb25de what computer do i run, some ppl say rb20det and some say rb25det, some say the rb20det wont work with the vvt etc and the rb25det is too hard to tune, im confused i can get all rb20det parts real cheap but dont wanna do it unles i know what ecu will plug in and work, can i get away with just a std turbo ecu and tuning and no link or safc etc as im on a tight budget, only want to run stock std boost... cheers guys Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/33407-how-to-turbo-your-na/page/9/#findComment-2933186 Share on other sites More sharing options...
unarmed_skyline Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 my sugestion is if your on a tight budget then wait until you got the money to do it properly, you never know what might go wrong and end up costing you shit loads to rectify, as for ecu, i would not sugest any standard ecu as it will not be safe to drive, possibly a standard TURBO ecu with a piggy back, but aftermarket is always best, as for r32 ecu it will work but i think something has to be done to it to make it work ie some pins have to change or somethingh and it will need to be re-mapped and you will need an aftermarket cam controller, dr. drift suply and fit r32 re-mapped ecu's with cam controler for around the $1300 including dyno time, or you could spend the extra 500ish for an aftermarket unit tuned, Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/33407-how-to-turbo-your-na/page/9/#findComment-2933236 Share on other sites More sharing options...
juddieR31 Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Mine has stock 25det ecu, all the AFR's on the dyno were perfect. Should be fine for low boost applications Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/33407-how-to-turbo-your-na/page/9/#findComment-2934457 Share on other sites More sharing options...
666DAN Posted February 26, 2007 Author Share Posted February 26, 2007 As these guys have said, if you're not after full tunability, the stock ECU is fine..generaly the tune on it is quite well suited to the higher compression. Stick and SAFC/emanage on it if you want to adjust a bit more.
