I'd honestly just go with an exhaust (entire thing, inclusive of cat converter - bashing out or whatever), K&N high flow panel filter, and perhaps a decent FMIC (front mounted inter cooler). Then have the boost set at ~10psi and you should see about 185rwkw from the standard ECU.

Really man, that's the best you'll do from the stock turbo. Once you want more than the stock turbo's capabilities, THEN you should (well, NEED to) upgrade the ECU to accommodate for a larger turbo. Upgraded ECU on stock turbo etc is really pointless, it isn't worth the money.

+1 on that :thumbsup:

My car made 170rwkw before the Nistune on 8psi with the stock turbo and was doughey as hell untill 5000rpm with the Nistune and 12psi it made 203rwkw and was coming to life at bout 3200rpm felt like a completely different car!

i disagree, upgraded ecu even on the stock turbo is a big improvement.

Also, you need to decide what you want to achieve with your car. What kind of power are you aiming for? Example, you do what these guys have suggested (which I agree upon) but if you get bitten by the wasps, you are going to spend much more money replacing these parts you just spent money on. Highflow turbo will only go so far, same with you AFM, same with a remapped ECU, then your clutch, then uh oh you have a race car!

Once you start modifying, it doesn't stop so I hope your budget stretches :D

My suggestion, keep it simple! Your current setup should see 180 to 200 kws once retuned on the right boost and then keep it at that. My old 33 S2 made 210 with only a boost controller to 11psi, fmic, splitfire coilpacks (cause the standard ones died), exhaust and a tune from Toshi in this club.

You drive a Skyline, you can pick up chicks without having an 11ty thousand HP machine. Save your money, upgrade to a GTR. Chicks will then throw their panties at you.

edited out the coilpack remarks because I missed that you mentioned you had after markets

Lol agreed bout the chicks but if you have a 11ty thousand hp skyline you can tear their clothes off under acceleration! Or you could cheat and buy GTR badges and most girls wouldnt tell the difference! haha :nyaanyaa:

Mine mad 192rwkw (Autotech and Ultimate Tunes dynos) on stock turbo 11psi (stock dump pipe into 3" exhaust, FMIC and unenclosed pod filter). Full boost by around 3000rpm IIRC. Pulled quite hard too, was very impressed.

Hahahahaha!

You beat me to it dude!

I was just about to say "Sin you probably own the house this said game is played in" haha

To be honest im not looking to get a car full of killer wasps

Just want a clean responsive street car.

Right now as one of the other guys said it just feels like a sloth in the lower rev range.

Also is running rich and overall just feels like its not pulling like it should.

Really needs a trusted good service + tune and I think ill be happy.

If not then I can go further and start heading into the idea of highflow, injectors , afm etc

What kind of power are you aiming for?

I really can't say the power im aiming for as I wont know until I reach it.

Right now I havent been for a ride in a GTR or an expensive R33 etc.

So I dont know what 250kw feels like or even if already my car is making some good power but I just got bored quick.

My mates think it has a fair bit of power but again they have never been in anything with some good money spent on it

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      By Duncan · Posted

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
