Haha , already in my watch list! , do you think the manifold is worth it chasing only what the std injectors will handle? , i am getting one for my main project (td06 rb20 that will turn into a 25 once the 20 goes pop) , I'm trying my hardest not to get the bug and buy injectors and afm because it will cut into my other project funds! . If i bought a manifold i wouldn't need the kando rear housing either , for ~$150 more it's probably a smart idea? . Shit , now you have me thinking

Big thanks to Blake BSA and Jeremy dvs_jez for their help. These blokes are a legend and always willing to lend a helping hand even on a rainy Saturday.

The boost drop issue has been fixed. To everyone who's doubted the manifold and gate mounting position, keep hating cause it wasn't the issue.

My tuner was a silly mofo, he set the gain too high.

Jez had a look at it after swapping with his tial MVR incase it was my gate that was the issue but turns out it wasn't.

It now holds the boost flat to red line. Tested at 17psi and 21psi.

The whole experience has left me very disappointed in my trusted tuner whom I've used for the past 4years.

For all tuning needs on the central coast in syd, contact dvs_jez and for all fabrication work, contact BSA, he's based in the gong and does work there, syd and central coast.

Gotta love full boost by 3700rpm :D

It's going in for finishing tune at 21-22psi in 3weeks so will have dyno sheetsresults then.

:thumbsup: Hope it blazes the tyres and makes the power you are chasing. Hope the tuner is eating some humble pie and his pricing reflects his oversight :whistling:

just checking what you guys think, for my RB25(I posted more info a few pages earlier) , since kando/kinugawa dont do a 10cm 3bolt mitsu rear housing to suit my trust manifold, Im trying to decide between 2 options now

option 1

buy a td06sl2 20g 8cm

option 2

recore my existing td06 20g and replace the rear 14cm housing with a 12cm which kinugawa sell

Depending what there like with those rear housings I will try and get a 10cm rear to replace at a later date.

what do you think the better option is?

I have a td06 20g 14cm that the rear seal has gone in, it made over 300rwkw (just) but was a bit laggy or drift.

So I was going to buy a new chra instead of rebuilding and then I considered upgrading to the td06sl2 20g and smaller turbine housing.

That's where I am now, not worth selling the kit as its already setup for it. All I have to do is bolt on and

Drive away :) oh and tune :(

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
