Ummm your dyno graphs are way off.

The first one is Hamish's HKS 2835 on a R33 not a HKS GT-RS on a R34.

The second one is ment to be part of the last one; Hypergear.

yeh... mine is not a GTRS :laugh:

not to mention that you cannot compare hypergear's results with others as he always pushes masses of boost and timing

16psi vs 24psi is NOT a worthwhile comparison

Not true. I don't tune my own car. Its the same tuner who tuned all of the cars, he's done he's very best to get power for all of yous, I'm no special to any one else. Max power of 17psi vs 24psi agreed, But do have a look in RPM vs power and torque.

We've put in lots of time, money and effort, doing dyno runs and testing on every single combination and possibilities for the best out come. The results are no accidents, if you read through our thread you will notice the amount of developments involved and out comes through time.

There are plenty of results including customer's results done by different tuners are on display. I'm not commenting on other people's work.

never said you physically tune your cars....

but your tunes on your own car always have a lot more crammed down their throat than most people's...

Trent tunes my car, you should know him good enough. He's can't add special power to it, plus I thrash it trying to blow up my own turbos and he's fully aware of that.

Also every one's making very similar results based on same boost assume their car's working properly thou. and not all high powered results there are from my own car, few people made more power with with less boost then I did.

yes trent tunes your car, but he only does what you ask him to do.

trent doesn't go around cramming 24odd pounds into customer cars with 400+hp turbo's and stock blocks unless he is specifically asked to.

it is irresponsible of you to lead people to think that, remember, he has a business too.

i'm not slandering your business, just letting people know that the comparison cannot be made between a gcg highflow @ 16psi and a hypergear one @ 24

many people only look @ peak power figures

i'm not interested in your profits or losses, just that the correct information is available for people to make educated decisions on products they spend thousands of dollars on

That is exactly right. Which in all my readings that Trent's done there are runs on different boost levels, you normally see one on 17psi and another one on 20psi. Plenty of my customers are making very decent power based on mild boost.

I didn't post this up, and 24psi is unexpected. Nothing thing works 100% in a new prototype. This does not affect down low response, torque and power. 320rwkws was consistent, which I must high light we do lot more to OP6 housings then just machining to suit a larger wheel.

There is an other run with in on 18psi with the same high flow in my thread, have a ready under the KAI profile. I'm not going to post it here.

Profit or lose has never been a concern. Just saying we've invested lots of efforts in making this happen. It has been a lengthy and enjoyable process, we are not stopping here either.

what quarter mile times are people getting with a hks gtrs on a 25 ?

I can't think of a more variable output parameter than 400m times from a single input parameter (turbo). ie. That information would be virtually useless and stupidly variable.

I've got an Apexi AX53B70 on my RB25. I don't think there are many/any turbos that are a closer spec to a GTRS than this. GTRS from all reports is slightly more responsive and makes slightly more power (but less peak midrange torque due to smaller housing). I think this kind of turbo with E85 would be the best street turbo available.

Well on my old tune on the Microtech it used to make 260 odd (no nitrous). Given that every one gains around 30rwkw from switching from 98 to E85 it should make close to 300kw.

97 with 230k and std turbo still :)

was that 230kw or km..

you should e85 it

If it was km retract my comment cause i thought you meant kws..Not that anyone paid attention anyway... :cool:

but its a 400HP turbo, wouldn't it just f**k out

The previous one on the other page 233kw one is with a standard rear housing :)

this one is with the OP6 rear housing.. \

Doesn't quite work that way.

Why do you think cars make more power on ethanol/race fuels? Higher resistance to knock allowing you to put more timing into the engine and the cooling effect of ethanol.

Have a look at all the cars running E85 on these forums, all of them make more power than what a turbo is simply "rated" at. The rating is just a rough calculation from the airflow the turbo can push out.

Perfect example is Hamish's HKS 2835 (rated at a bit more than the GT-RS) as seen in the first dyno graph posted on the first page, 320rwkw on E85. That punches way above its 400PS rating.

Not sure how much difference he makes doing this, but alot of Hypergear's "test" runs are done with the exhaust dropped, so not a true indicitive reading of how it would perform on a street driven vehicle

    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff   
    • A few random issues have popped up since my last update. My WMI pressure sensor failed within about 10 minutes of it seeing liquid. It was a 20$ China special, so I'm not surprised. My name brand replacement should arrive today.  My power steering assist also decided to crap out last weekend. The usual, works for about 60 seconds after starting the car then I lose it. I dusted off my old copy of NDS and connected to the HICAS ECU. Code 4 for assist solenoid.... I tested the solenoid and it's fine.  I knew the day where my HICAS ecu would crap out would come, and I welcome it. It was the last HICAS part on the car that is now in the bin. I've ordered an SSR and I will control the power steering solenoid with my Haltech ecu. It will be nice to have proper speed referenced assist again after all these years.
