I just spent 2 hours on the dyno and finished up with 215rwkw on 13psi with the standard turbo on a Dyno Dynamics dyno run in Shootout mode. This is previously up from 187rwkw, but with the inclusion of the INTERCOOLERGUYS fmic and an exhaust cam gear, it made an extra 28rwkw. Im a happy man. Power is much stronger, especially top end.

Overall i had 16 runs on the dyno, walking in with 210-213rwkw but with a few missfires. I tried to tune out with the SAFC but to no avail. I wound down the boost to 9-10psi and was pushing around 198-200, with a nice steady climb with no missfires. So we figured, how do i run a nice clean run with higher boost, but with no missfires. I believed the extra boost was blowing out the spark. So i pulled out the plugs and gapped them from 0.8 to 0.7. Immediately at high boost there where no missfires and was getting 215rwkw on 13.3psi. Boosted it upto 14.5psi and it made 216rwkw, but midrange was lacking, so decided too back it off.

The intercooler looks great and fitted without too many dramas. Not once did the intercooler get hot during the 16 runs. A pleasure to have such a nice intercooler fitted and the performance is just great.

Holly crap you are running 13psi on the standard turbo? That sould last a few weeks at best :P I'm impressed that with the standard turbo you made 200rwkw's with 10psi!!! That seems very odd, I have a good hi-flow turbo and it is making 223rwkw's on 14psi and I have all the right gear with the exception of cam gears! Anyway stick the chart up when you have a chance.

Stop kidding yourself.

Robo's, that's an awesome result, mate. Well done! What plugs are you using, who is your tuner and how much was the cam gear/what type is it?

Im using Bosch Copper plugs 7 something code, maybe platnums might be better at higher boost, i dont know. Im the tuner, SAFC's aint the hardest to tune. Cam gear was from Ice performance, nothing special, just a modded standard unit, doesnt even have degrees on it, we had to try and work it out by eye.

May I suggest some BCPR7ES-11 gapped to 0.7 - 0.8mm for your next set. Leave the platinums to the people with more money than sense. :P

Very good result. Would be interested to see the dyno chart before and after to see whether you lost any power early on or through the midrange.

Adrian

Then you have the right plugs :cheers:

lol...

I've been racing on 1.0bar plus the nitrous for 3 months and 1.0bar for the year before that. The point is, there is NO hard and fast rule regarding when a std ceramic wheel turbo will fail. Just guidelines.

shootout mode tries to make up for different losses on the dyno ...

the good tuners i know of don't use it

MSPEC - Ben doesn't use shootout mode, our dynos are non beefed up etc..

my 270kw would be closer to 300 on shootout mode...

dont know where u got dreamer mode from. Shoot out mode is shoot out mode, normal mode is normal mode, aslong as u say which mode ur hp/kw figure was achieved in then theres no dramas really, people understand. Im with 2rismo on the turbo issue. Many people say different things. Ive been running 13psi on my standard r33 gtst turbo for over 10 months now with no ceramic wheel trouble(knock on wood). Any way that dyno result is very good matey. Congratulations there, the car did well.

    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
