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.

    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
    • See if you can thermal epoxy a heatsink or two onto it?
    • The other problem was one of those "oh shit we are going to die moments". Basically the high spec Q50s have a full electric steering rack, and the povo ones had a regular hydraulic rack with an electric pump.  So couple of laps into session 5 as I came into turn 2 (big run off now, happily), the dash turned into a christmas tree and the steering became super heavy and I went well off. I assumed it was a tyre failure so limped to the pits, but everything was OK. But....the master warning light was still on so I checked the DTCs and saw – C13E6 “Heat Protection”. Yes, that bloody steering rack computer sitting where the oil cooler should be has its own sensors and error logic, and decided I was using the steering wheel too much. I really appreciated the helpful information in the manual (my bold) POSSIBLE CAUSE • Continuing the overloading steering (Sports driving in the circuit etc,) “DATA MONITOR” >> “C/M TEMPERATURE”. The rise of steering force motor internal temperature caused the protection function to operate. This is not a system malfunction. INSPECTION END So, basically the electric motor in the steering rack got to 150c, and it decided to shut down without warning for my safety. Didn't feel safe. Short term I'll see if I can duct some air to that motor (the engine bay is sealed pretty tight). Long term, depending on how often this happens, I'll look into swapping the povo spec electric/hydraulic rack in. While the rack should be fine the power supply to the pump will be a pain and might be best to deal with it when I add a PDM.
    • And finally, 2 problems I really need to sort.  Firstly as Matt said the auto trans is not happy as it gets hot - I couldn't log the temps but the gauge showed 90o. On the first day I took it out back in Feb, because the coolant was getting hot I never got to any auto trans issues; but on this day by late session 3 and then really clearly in 4 and 5 as it got hotter it just would not shift up. You can hear the issue really clearly at 12:55 and 16:20 on the vid. So the good news is, literally this week Ecutek finally released tuning for the jatco 7 speed. I'll have a chat to Racebox and see what they can do electrically to keep it cooler and to get the gears, if anything. That will likely take some R&D and can only really happen on track as it never gets even warm with road use. I've also picked up some eye wateringly expensive Redline D6 ATF to try, it had the highest viscosity I could find at 100o so we will see if that helps (just waiting for some oil pan gaskets so I can change it properly). If neither of those work I need to remove the coolant/trans interwarmer and the radiator cooler and go to an external cooler....somewhere.....(goodbye washer reservoir?), and if that fails give up on this mad idea and wait for Nissan to release the manual 400R
    • So, what else.... Power. I don't know what it is making because I haven't done a post tune dyno run yet; I will when I get a chance. It was 240rwkw dead stock. Conclusion from the day....it does not need a single kw more until I sort some other stuff. It comes on so hard that I could hear the twin N1 turbos on the R32 crying, and I just can't use what it has around a tight track with the current setup. Brakes. They are perfect. Hit them hard all day and they never felt like having an issue; you can see in the video we were making ground on much lighter cars on better tyres under brakes. They are standard (red sport) calipers, standard size discs in DBA5000 2 piece, Winmax pads and Motul RBF600 fluid, all from Matty at Racebrakes Sydney. Keeping in mind the car is more powerful than my R32 and weighs 1780, he clearly knows his shit. Suspension. This is one of the first areas I need to change. It has electronically controlled dampers from factory, but everything is just way too soft for track work even on the hardest setting (it is nice when hustling on country roads though). In particular it rolls into oversteer mid corner and pitches too much under hard braking so it becomes unstable eg in the turn 1 kink I need to brake early, turn through the kink then brake again so I don't pirouette like an AE86. I need to get some decent shocks with matched springs and sway bars ASAP, even if it is just a v1 setup until I work out a proper race/rally setup later. Tyres. I am running Yoko A052 in 235/45/18 all round, because that was what I could get in approximately the right height on wheels I had in the shed (Rays/Nismo 18x8 off the old Leaf actually!). As track tyres they are pretty poor; I note GTSBoy recently posted a porker comparo video including them where they were about the same as AD09.....that is nothing like a top line track tyre. I'll start getting that sorted but realistically I should get proper sized wheels first (likely 9.5 +38 front and 11 +55 at the rear, so a custom order, and I can't rotate them like the R32), then work out what the best tyre option is. BTW on that, Targa Tas had gone to road tyres instead of semi slicks now so that is a whole other world of choices to sort. Diff. This is the other thing that urgently needs to be addressed. It left massive 1s out of the fish hook all day, even when I was trying not too (you can also hear it reving on the video, and see the RPM rising too fast compared to speed in the data). It has an open diff that Infiniti optimistically called a B-LSD for "Brake Limited Slip Diff". It does good straight line standing start 11s but it is woeful on the track. Nismo seem to make a 2 way for it.
