Remap After Boost Increase?

Hey guys I recently bought myself a r32 gtr with some mods already done to it such as 550cc injectors, full 3 inch exhaust, hks induction kit, boost controller and some other stuff.

it's got stock ceramic turbo's but has been dyno-ed and mapped by RisingSunPerformance (14,5psi) 408,3 HP @ 1 bar of boost

Considering it's going to be used for track days, I dont think the ceramic turbine will last long at 1 bar of boost, so I'm thinking about rebuilding it with steel internals.

But do I need a remap again if I want to run 1,2 bar of boost?

Back to the original question ...

That depends.

If you want to run much more boost, the old mapping might run out of it's load scale.

Meaning the ECU uses the last 'known' 'cell' for ignition and fuelling which might lead to knock or/and lean mixture.

Sounds quite technical .. so in your case I'd say 'yes' ... remap!

u better off getting an aftermarket ecu if u plan on further mods.. a chipped ecu will need to be re-flased each time you make significant changes..

if u handy with a spanner, take off your induction kit and see if can get a better look at the front turbo, maybe able to identify the turbo

also re: dyno graph, do u have one showing what boost was being run.. u based in the uk??

No I'm from Holland, I was told by the previous owner (from UK) the 408hp was at 1 bar of boost, and he got me another dyno read out (345hp or so) wich believed to be at .75 bar of boost.

I will take a look at the turbo's tomorrow,

as for the boost. If i find out it's just stock turbo's then I think the best way is just get them rebuilt with steel internals and not go further than 1 bar.

Always a good idea to get the ecu remapped or at least checked when you up the boost. I increased my mid range by 2psi and when I took it in the tuner said it was pinging heavily and that it was good I brought it in. $2-400 to ensure everythings ok is cheap compared to the alternatives if something goes wrong.

You can get 300KW from the stock twins, but only with a tonne of supporting mods such that you only run 1 bar at most, which isn't the case so definitely you'll want to get a proper ECU if you plan to up to 1.2, and you'll be a lot safer with what you have now with a proper map.

all the supporting mods wont change the fact stock turbo will still need more than 1bar boost to see anywhere close to 300kw.. 1.2/1.3 bar will see it coming close, hell u could up it to 1.5 bar and have it running with little more gain

A valid point,

HP and 'at the clutch' makes for big figures ... :)

On the other side, I see a lot of dyno graphs form OZ with speed in km/h on the X-Axes.

I really don't understand what this is for since I'm interested in at what rpm the engine makes

what power/boost.

Cheers from London ...

Never quite understood anyone who would tune on S_HP when it's a calculated 'guess' as to the clutch power - rather than a 'real' figure at the wheels ..

I guess it makes the owner happy, but beyond that?

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
