Guys,

Got my car tuned today after having -9 turbos fit in on stock engine with power FC, exhaust and bleed valve....

was a bit disappointed by getting only 286kW.

It did 265kW before that....only 21kW difference after changing stock turbos to -9?

Does that figure sounds right?? just a bit curious....

Its on a GTR33, stock motor...

Help me guys, after spending that money, i was aiming for at least 300kW....

Do you think there is a problem or should i have supporting mods? If i need supporting mods, what minor mods can i have??

thanks guys :)

most obvious question, how much boost?

were those figures on the same dyno, same settings

The previous figures was on the same dyno as well....

I was thinking of getting an opinion for another tuner....

i was been told that if i had smaller wheels, i could get upto 300kW ???

Sounds right, for safe tune.

Changing timing to bit aggressive top end may get you 300rwkw. I did this after wanting 300rwkw and told tuner to make me happy so he did it.

EBC - Electronic Boost Controller. If you've got heavy duty Garrett or HKS actuators, EBC may not be required. You've also got bleed valve so was told it's fine.

I do have bleed valve, so i may not need EBC....i have the standard HKS actuators....

i was thinking of fuel pump and changing the injectors....

OR

get it fully retuned by someone else as well.......

At this point, I'd talk to few tuners and see what they say about your setup and your power goal, and go from there.

Changing fuel pump and injectors wouldn't yield more power BUT will give you extra fuel to feed into motor so you can raise the boost to achieve 300rwkw (I achieved 302rwkw at 90-96% injector duty - not recommended), you'll need Nismo AFM for better resolution (again, talk to tuner they should explain you better).

    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks 
    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
