Twin scroll with be best.

I run a single scroll equal length love fab turbo header with a tial 60mm wg.

Spool test was at .7 bar no boost controller.

Results was:

5 psi at 3,200 rpm

10 psi at 4,300 rpm

Which was fool boost

We set our rev limit to 5,000 rpm

Which was hitting rev limit at 4,800rpm

You can check out Kelford camshafts

They use a lower lift but the same duration as my tomei.

Mine is 10.25 both camshafts

They do help spool

Why the super low boost level and rev limiter?? Are you running the engine in?

Kelfords camshaft listing for the rb25 is kinda unclear. It shows hydrilic lifters but says that its not suitable for the r33 an r34 with nvcs. So will these drop right into a series 1 rb25det with hydros...? No springs or solid lifters right....?

Why only 22psi? Just keep screwing more in until it stops making power or you run into detonation issues.

This is probably the smartest post of yours on SAU.

Why people stop at a certain number they get stuck in their heads is just STUPID

Lol

A high boost T78 will Demand tire changes like you wouldn't believe.

The demand wide rims to have atleast a 275 or a 300 wide tire to be able to find some grip.

This means rims less the 10j are useless unless you can afford good sticky dot tires with treadware 100 or less.

Plan ahead and get ready to spend some good cash on suspension and wheels/tires.

Learn how suspension works.

Become a expert in spring rates etc.

The more you know the less money you waste.

That's my 2cents

Ahh, whats stupid about it? A std engine with 9.0:1 compression on PULP98 is going to fall victim the laws of physics if you lean on it too hard.

A std 9.0:1 compression bottom end isnt going to like too many revs, too much boost or too much power in general. Mix all three together and you have to accept that the state you are running your engine in may result in a faiulure.

Keep revs to below 7,800rpm, boost under 20psi and I suspect the thing will be pretty reliable even if its making 360rwks. Run 24psi and the risk simply increases

Why 20psi, why not keep it under 18psi?

You are guessing, really need to put it on the dyno and see how it behaves, if it doesn't detonate or get hot then what is the issue?

Update time.

Made 300kw on 16-17psi and e85.

I did end up with more but i was running out of fuel. I think it's time for a new fuel filter.

Will retune on 98 and e85 with more boost a bit down the track.

Out of interest what plugs should i be running?

What sort of timing no's should i expect up top? Currently it's around 17-18deg.

Thanks

    • 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
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
