My mate just bought a evo6 with only an exhaust and fuel pump, got steve knight to play around with it and made 250awkw on pulp. Steve did tune it on 30psi though haha, seems pretty high to me but i know nothing about evos.

Took my car to Steves just after I got it, asked him to check it out on the dyno and make sure its running ok

next day its running 25psi gone from 170kw to 220kw with just a cat back.. :laugh: although it wasn't the safest tune around, 30psi on 98 stock turbo is huge

Evo6 wont sustain 30psi on a stock turbo. The turbo is nowhere near big enough to get it done. Take that as read ;)

30psi can be spiked through it low in the rpm range though, bend all the rods and get them to kick out the side of the block.

30psi is massive boost for any production petrol engine....good luck with it! :)

(Thanks Jet)

I can pretty much guarantee that there is no way in the world that turbo was running anywhere near 30psi. Anything over 25psi on a stock Evo turbo is pointless as you're only creating heat/stress for very little (if none whatsoever) gains.

My stock 2.0l engine/turbo Evo 6 makes a reliable 270awkw on 24.5psi with E-flex tuned by SKR. Thus far, it has been good enough for a string of 1:15's around Mallala and 1:04/1.05's around Wakefield Park. There's no chance the car would be making that much power and producing those lap times on 98. E-85 is my best power mod to date and if you haven't already done it, do it!

Pooraka have ran out twice on me before and once I had to wait half an hour for the tanker to move so that I could fill up. I keep 2 jerrys full at home now just in case

Hi guys, im fitting new injectors and fuel pump soon to change over to E85, am i able to refill the tank with E85 and drive it to the tuner without making any ecu changes? or would it be better to run the new pump and injectors on 98 to get it to the tuner and let them change the fuel?

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
