haha yeah i was a little worried about that, he said the car was slipping off the dyno but he had no one to help keep it down.

Interesting. What tyres are you using? Shouldn't be slipping when its only making 270 odd rwkw.

Dunlop 18s, but i did recently put stock suspension in and the shocks arent in the best condition. He assured me it is nothing to do with the tune as the afr and boost graphs are fine. im putting the coilovers back in after this weekend then ill get a power run and see how it goes, or ill be at the dyno day if that is still happening, interested to see what i make on a mainline.

200... I hope there was some sarcasim in that, Im sure the figure wont drop 70kw. Either way im happy with the increase in power and how the car runs from changing to E85. I know how good Willall have proven to be but at the moment i am happy to take my car to Boost Worx.

Jet's F6 went from about 420rwkw on a DD to around 360 on a mainline

I went from 270rwkw on DD to 250rwkw on a mainline. There is definately a discrepancy - that said, do the ramp rates even correlate between the two brands?

Just got my car back from BoostWorx, Made a 30kw and 50nm gain.

When does it get full boost in 4th? I have an AX53B70, full boost is at 3400rpm in 4th (no brake tricks, not up hill). Yours looks a touch higher from the dyno - but it's the road that matters.

When mine came off the dyno it took until ~3800rpm in the road to hit 15psi. I richened mine up a touch (about 5%) in the mid-range on the road and it helped ALOT with 3000-4000rpm. (98 octane).

hey guys first things first 30rwkw is on the money for a e85 changeover congrats on doing it bud its great fuel and works wonders for $ to rwkw

but no real reason why a car is allover the place on a dyno, the setting up and strapping down part is just as important as the tune imho not just for safety but for a honest as possiable result on ur progress.

now the dyno debate is a killer dont try to work it out it just is what it is .....farked lol but i will say this there are many workshops in s.a that know what there doing and then others that dont have a bloody clue. this is where willall get big props they are very particular on the strapping down process and there mainline dyno ..............ill say this very honestly ..............seems to be bang on the money for rwkw vs mph not everyone likes to used the same workshop as others and so on but r33 a mate has was tuned on e85 at willall eflex of all crap and came out with 240rwkw on 98 then a direct 270rwkw after the e85 tune, so ur seeing what u should be

yes pete the willall dyno makes the men stand up lol but had a fair idea the first d/d was down hill,

just for a larf we seem a bf f6 typhoon do 275 on one dyno then coupla hrs later 360rwkw on another .....................boggles the mind

but just remember we have a strip now so no guess work, mph is a true reflection for power.................get to the strip lads

    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
