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.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
