RB28 - Tomei Stroker, E85 is correct though.

Turbos came on earlier with the last build even with bigger cams, so with a bit of fiddling we should be able to get her back to 20psi before 4000rpm.

Atleast that's the plan.

The HTA will hit the rollers again this week sometime...

Hey John, looks promising. What psi was that dyno pull? I can't tell by the graph, and I would very much expect you to see 20psi before 4,000 rpm, especially with those cams and displacement.

Hi Brett,

It was 30psi but dropped down to approx 27psi. Phil thinks the drop may have something to do with the internal gates..?? He didn't really spend too much time worrying about it though.

The tune with the knock control work/calculations took him a good part of the full day so other things like boost and cam timing weren't high up on his list this time around.

I'm with you though, it made 20psi before 4000rpm previously so I don't see any reason why it can't do it again. I'm going to put some more k's on the engine before we start playing around some more.

I'll keep you posted!

John

How many kms are on the engine John?

About 50! although it's done probably 10 times this on the dyno...

Shoot me an email with the part number on the side of the actuator, they should hold 30psi no problem if they are the high boost actuators.

Will do, I think you sent me the high boost ones originally though..

WOAH, water to air cooler... Care to share any details for a fellow SR owner?

Is that going to be drag application only or circuit use also? I can barely see the hoses underneath for water circulation.. How intense is the system?

I cut the dividers out of the side tanks in the factory air con condenser so that it is single pass rather than 3 pass which was too restrictive for water to flow through then had AzCustom seal up the bits that I cut and added a 19mm barbed fitting on either side of it. I'm using that as the radiator because it bolts right in and looks 100% stock from the outside. I'm running a Plazmaman 700hp pro series intercooler. I made a 2.5" to 2" ally reducer bend and had it welded to the compressor housing outlet. The inlet side of the intercooler has a roughly 90 degree 2.5" bend welded to it and the outlet side the same but in 2.75". Intake air temps were really good on the dyno but I'll wait and see how it holds up with more boost before I get too excited. I put that setup in half-prepared to have to buy another radiator instead of the modified AC condenser but so far, so good.

Nice work mate, I like the originality of it.

I want to do a 'mostly' under bonnet setup but I also want to keep AC (want to run an OEM front bar with foglights). Water to air would make that really easy, but im worried that it wont stand up to circuit work at 300kw.

Keen to see more detailed results from yours. You may sway me :)

I'm setting up the electronic boost control today/tomorrow then it's back to GT Garage on Tuesday for its final tune then I'll post up the dyno sheet.

How did you go?

I am in talks with a friend who may have me build his SR and go a 7064 rather than the VQ conversion he was planning. Would love to see your final results before we make the decision.

    • 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
