hey guys just wonder what type of power ill get out of my rb20det with this set up

ENGINE 100% stock

- Top mount GT35 Turbo, 0.63 turbine housing, Compressor housing: A/R .70 with 100mm air inlet ( boost 3000-4000+?)

or WS-0448 Turbo

- 38mm external wastegate

- 550cc injectors

- Yellow jacket coilpacks

- NGK R Iritop 7 spark plugs

- Bosch 040 intake fuel pump

- HKS SSQV BOV Plumb back

-Z32 afm

- Big front mount

- full 3" zorst

- and a nistune.

ill be happy with 200-300kw

what RPM do you think this will start boost and reach max boost?

Will be using stock ecu for a while.

POST how much hp you think will come from this!

Thanks

Stock ECU - forget about anything occuring mate. Dont even wind up the boost until you get a tune.

GT35 - boost around 4,000-4,500 even with a .63, might be later. Hard to say.

You'll be lucky if you make 300rwkw on 20psi

You'll need to throw 25psi+ down it's neck to get anywhere with a 700hp turbo with a choked rear end. You'll also need a bigger exhaust for that turbo. 3" might not get you there.

All that said, you've probably realised a theme - buy something that is not a 700hp turbo for 250rwkw and be much better off for it. I think it's a very bad choice of turbo.

There are loads of better choices:

3071 - 260rwkw

TD06 - 270rwkw

HKS2530 - 230rwkw

Also forget the Iridi plugs, waste of money. Buy normal copper.

That's quite a big turbo with a tiny rear end for a tiny motor. You'll get more investing in an RB25DET motor and a little more boost. Seriously, an RB25DET stock turbo 13 psi with a tune, pump, injectors and what not will see about 220rwkw.

Once you start getting past 220-230 rwkw with a rb20 you'll get nothing but lag, the best turbos out there ie least amount of lag for a 20 will get you 230 rwkw max, once you start chasing more that means bigger turbo = lag, and i mean piss you of annoying lag trust me. The turbo you listed will be to laggy and is more suited to a 2.5 or 3 litre.

If you have the cash invest in a 25, pretty easy to get a reliable 260-300rwkw where as a 20 is kinda to restricted for anything over 230.

I'm sunning a standard turbo highflowed and have 219 rwkw and its not to laggy, still more then standard of course but no where near as bad as say a 33 highflow. I make full boost by around 4-4.5k, i personally think around 210-230 is perfect for a 20.:thumbsup:

A hks 2535 would prob get you closer to 240 or more but unsure how it compares lag wise to the hks 2530 which is a proven winner on a 20.

I should ad that e85 could be the way to go to, theres a guy on here who got 265 rwkw from his 20 with similar turbo as mine, just he has spent a fair bit of time on rb26 inlet manifold and a few other things, but still a pretty good effort.

A proper trust TD06L2 has been proven time and time again...

If you think it is really laggy then you should not have an RB20. It is a worthwhile compromise.

If you still want it for daily duties and a little track then you can't go past the HKS 2530 option mentioned or the 2871.

Technical parameters: - Axle: front. - Disc type: ventilated. - Number of holes: 5. - Disc diameter: 310mm. - Total height with center: 54mm. - Thickness (new/min.): 30/28mm. - Designed for brake calipers manufacturer: Sumitomo.
    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
