Oh and wreckedhead, 11.6 @ 120mph is a good time but consider the following:

BU5TER: 2.5l, TD-06 25G, RWD

JETT aka 'nicknick': 2.6l, T78-33D, AWD AND C16 Fuel !!!!!

:D

Oh and BU5TER went 11.7 @ 128mph with a 2.0 60ft .... When he runs 1.7 60' just you wait and see what happens...

Adrian

Thanks guys.  These std turbos work great, I dunno why everyone changes them for bigger ones?!?!?!

Adrian

Well done Adrian, nice work mate.

Indeed the standard turbo does work great, mind you when you add nitrous you'd expect it too. Hmmm... maybe I should get myself a 50hp kit too.

What's the bottle cost to fill, and how many passes per bottle?

So do you run it on the street? C'mon tell the truth now :)

The ONLY down side I can see in having gas (rather than a bigger turbo etc...) is you don't get to use the power whenever you want to. Say on a cruise in the hills, a full track day, the traffic light grand prix, and that sort of thing. I guess if you have a huge nitrous bottle it wouldn't be a problem. The legality issue isn't as much of a concern as what ISN'T illegal these days.

A bigger turbo AND gas is the best way to go.

Hmmm... cams or nitrous?

How quick is your car without the gas?

What's the bottle cost to fill, and how many passes per bottle?

10lb (D Size) bottle = $100.00 = 100hp for 100sec

So do you run it on the street? C'mon tell the truth now

No.

How quick is your car without the gas?

13.471 @ 104.56mph - (2.2 60')

Thanks for answering my constant questions Adrian :D

So do you know what rwkw gain your car makes on the gas (before/after fig's) ?

By the looks of things it makes a massive difference! An 11mph gain in TS is excellent.

$100 isn't bad at all, considering the number of passes that gives you. $1 per second doesn't sound as good though :)

It'll be very interesting to see how much quicker you'll go with a 100hp shot. With good traction the low 12's / high 11's (@ 120mph) may well be possible!

Cheers,

Matt

Holy shit i'd better not go out in public again the shame of a T78 powered GTR beating me by one 10th and at 120mph hahahaha is to much to take  :devfu:

dont worry my cars already having the twin plate clutch put in so next week hopefully it wont slip of the line and in third gear, but thats ok im not asshamed at 11.6, its not a bad time considering i only spent about a grand on the car since i bought it.

    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
    • Thanks guys - I have been overseas for a hectic many weeks , so haven't had time to chase any of these up.  Some of the suggestions are for 4.1 ratio, which I already have, and a 3.5 at Lonsdale, which is also too tall.  Really looking for 3.9 or even a 3.7 LSD, either with M12 bolts. Will look some more.  
    • Yeah sounds like the swirl pot isn't being fed from the return line, would be made even worse by the high flow pump. 
    • This is the R32 one and the inside of the tank should look like this. which has an internal swirl pot, that the return line must empty into. (Interestingly, because the GTR tank is plastic it misses out on the swirl pot.) That is a potential cause for an aftermarket pump hanger to mess things up. Maybe the return is cut short and squirting over the side.
