Tom is yours a T4 TS IWG ?
Did you run the stock actuator and or have any issues with boost control ?

 

For anyone interested, here is my 7670 dyno graph.

 

Car is an Evo V. As you can see, it's fairly responsive.

 

Not pushing it at all on 98, only 20 psi.

Hey man, it's T4 twin external gates. While the plumbing is a nightmare, I didn't want to have to deal with boost control issues

Cheers. Like your S15 was. I've got dramas with my 7163, unsure if tuner or setup so far. Tempted to convert to EWG.

If you're on a SR20.. you will find the low timing dip when torque ramps up will cause the turbo to over boost a bit.. a touch hard to iron out.. unless you're on E85 and can dial in more timing.. Either that control your boost solenoid by DC vs RPM.

SR20, E85. Boost just dropping off like mad. I need to go through the setup a bit better as current tuner doesn't seem interested in trying to find the issue and is blaming the turbo and being IWG. Boost control is by rpm on avc-r with 4 port mac valve dual port turbosmart actuator.

Awesome turbo even with the boost dropping. Just pulls like mad.

In the AVC-R, when you're in the Setting Menu, hit next next.. it allows you to fine tune duty cycle by RPM (which is defined in the NE Menu). See where boost is bleeding off and add DC to those RPM points defined by the NE Points.

 

Who's tuning your car?

SUPER interested to hear about these results. Is it a stock / forged SR20? Most people seem to be running these on SR22's or VET's. Hard to find much info on a 'plain old' SR20.

So you're running EFR 7163 on SR20 with T4 TS internal gate? Low mount Hypertune manifold? High mount Fullrace manifold? This is the exact combo I was looking at. NOTHING wrong with my current GTX2863R setup (except it doesn't hold boost very well). Looking for an excuse to go to BW town. Was looking at 6758 for crazy response setup, but from what I'm reading there will be minimal loss in response going to 7163, and much nicer fat top end.

Got a dyno chart of the setup?

FYI I'm running forged engine and e85 setup (although currently maxxing my 950cc injectors). Greddy Eboost Profec II Spec B (who comes up with these freakin names). Z32 AFM, Nistune w/flex.

use a turbosmart dual port actuator.. I tuned a SR20 with a GTX2867 using that actuator and the boost was pretty flat.. not ruler flat as an EWG but flat enough :)

Just fuel system couldn't keep up, ripping out the junk DW300 and replacing it with a Walbro 450L

Interesting. I'm running aftermarket Kinugawa actuator on mine with 19psi spring in it. Currently hits about 24psi... then tapers down to ~19psi.Would love to be able to hold the ~24psi all the way, would net a little more top end and pull a bit harder once up and going... that's about the limit though. 0.64 rear housing so it chokes a bit with anymore boost.

PS. Yeah I'm running the Walbro 450lph fuel pump too, hard wired... no issues thus far.

try turning your gain down so the EBC is more lazy and increase your SET to higher

anyhow, these twin ports are great for controlling boost.. just remember to set your EBC to external waste gate mode to use the twin port

Wouldn't a restriction from IWG lead to boost creep rather than a drop?

The other possibility is compressor running out of puff but 7163 can flow quite a lot. Couple of guys on nissansilvia running it, one on a slightly higher comp VET setup, which would be more prone to boost drop in that situation - think that's bradsm87. Pretty sure he's IWG but cant remember for sure. Also nicknack had one IIRC.

Edited by Skepticism

Stock sr20 260 procams. nistune E85, blow through Z32. Was running hks evcs switched avc-r for boost control by rpm as recommend by tuner.
Fullrace top mount TS 7163 and dump. I think it's either a leak or wastegate setup so need to find dyno for hire or somewhere a bit more receptive to testing / debugging.

There's a bit of info over at NRR and on NS in the efr threads.

Finally finished fitting an EFR 8374iwg  on a 2.8 and must say it is a step up from the 5s in every way.

Definitely recommend it.

Welcome to the club!

I would really like to see how mine compares boost threshold etc on pumpgas if you can get some data. Thanks!

have you pulled out timing yet? it will seriously wake up your turbo

Mine has begun, should be getting tuned in about 3 weeks if all goes to plan

Stock rb26

T4 twin scroll manifold

EFR 8374 twin scroll 1.04

External gate

Custom 3.5" exhaust

264 cams, springs/retainers, studs and metal head gasket

Haltech

E85

I doubt I'll be able to get its maximum potential given the stock bottom end but we should see 500kw and 30psi around 4100rpm

Adding fuel DEFINITELY helped...I had a lean spot. I've been playing with cams and all but vacation took some days out of my tuning schedule :) .

Advancing cams 2 deg in and 2 deg ex didn't really help. I think the Tomei's like 0 and 0 to be honest. It was my best overall powerband.

I'll pull timing on boost onset for you today and get back to back logs at same temps, etc.

 

Also I want to note that the car is extremely responsive and drivable. in 3rd it's full boost almost exactly at 4k and I'm very happy with that. I have compared my powerband to lots of others and it's extremely acceptable so far. Top end is ridiculous.

Should be awesome!!!

I'll be moving to E85 in the next couple of months as well. Done with this pumpgas! I am just leaving too much power on the table.

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
