What turbo you running? Is the motor built with cams etc? Thats a good power at 15psi! My car has 270rwkw with bout 21psi on a stock motor with a GTX3071 if your fuel system is up to it 20 psi is no drama!

Put it this way mate my car has 850cc injectors and tomei 276Lpm pump and my boost spiked up to 26.6psi in 3rd gear with plenty of revs and throttle and the motor didnt make a sound it shouldnt of!:thumbsup:

But obviously i wouldnt recommend it on a stock motor! But alot of blokes in here run 20psi on stockas reliably if ya motor is relatively healthy and you dont abuse it too often :whistling:

No ideaonthe turbo but according to previous owner was biggest highflow. Done by ATS

Stock internals as far as i know, no cams or camgears, fuel systemis easly up to it.

Not sure whats good for that turbo but mabye look at a retune orgionaly this car made 236rwkw on 16psi from turbo tune, then jeff gave it a real tune.

SWEET! Well wind the boost up mate and put her back on the rollers! haha :banana:

Wow thats a big increase from a re tune! Good luck with it mate :thumbsup:

ATS, would be GT30 internals in a factory t3 housing machined to fit. Most power you will get out of it is 270-280kw before its out of its range and starts surging or going hyper (aka, spinning n making more boost with no power increase, much like a non actuated turbo) The factory front housing doesnt like boost over 18psi, have seen em crack before but then again have seen em running on 20+ with no problem. Either way i wouldnt push it, if its still healthy, get rid of it and upgrade to something that will handle the power you want with ease.

my 2c

18psi from an ATS highflow would just be starting to reach the happy zone. I have an ATS "highflow" of sorts, with a GT3076R ball bearing internal wastegate core - front is a stock compressor cover ported out to the extreme, rear exhaust housing is a .73ar AVO unit for the 6-bolt skyline style.

Bill Keen from ATS builds his turbos to take up to around 22psi comfortably, 18psi would be nice and sweet for an unopened motor.

Make sure your fueling is ok, same with cooling. But with 270rwkw currently Id say that probably isnt an issue. At 18psi you could expect 280rwkw, at 20psi perhaps up to 300rwkw.

I use and recommend Bootworx, however Willal Racing is a SAU:SA club sponsor and Martin Donnan would have to be the best tuner in the state.

sorry to burst your kw bubble but i would almost certainly put money on it that 270kw was a happy dyno

Bill rates that high flow to 270,

first thing first go see Martin at >>Willall Racing<< and get a power run and advice on if he can improve the tune or extract more boost

Hey I'm with you

rb25 15psi for 270 is high

Run it on the mainline dyno @ Willal for a more realistic readout

As Steve said. Best thing to do would be to take it to Willall. Get them to do a power run and then look into getting more boost, better tune and see what it spits out. 270rwkw on 15psi would certainly not be coming out of a highflow.

Cheers for the imput guys. Il give willall racing a ring next few days n see how much it is.

Yea even i figured it was a bit much non the less put a massive smile on my face on boost ;)

Just a quick thing the highflow was 2700. Wouldnt it have been better to just get a 3076r or something? I know for the whole stock look its good but this thing is clearly defectable catch can, bov all that crap

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
