Rb25 Bolt On Turbo

[jet2nv]

i think people are confussed it had a full tune for all the bolt ons but for a gt3071 then all he did was change the turbo nothing else still somewhat a full tune

its not like he took his stock turbo off ran a gt42 and turned the boost up

ok you can do that but send it to the person who spent more money with a full tune and made less power

[75coupe]

can we see a chart of what the afr's are doing and the power curve with rpm being shown and while were at it how about a boost graph?

[jet2nv]

ill try and see if he has that not sure he said the dyno guy only gave him this piece of paper

i had a tune before from the same guy and i never got afr or anythin just a power run

[GTScotT]

its definitely a real dyno sheet, i dunno where this excel stuff came from.

would love to see pics of the car and videos would be awesome, sounds uber cool

[SimonR32]

hahahah got his paper finally so it was 258rwkw on 17psi

damm imageshak wasnt working so im using tinypic

hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

I want to see a boost graph, my guess is it's got a whole guts full at 140km/hr

[jet2nv]

havent got a boost graph

i can assure you it only had 17psi all set by a eboost 2

[kwickr33]

hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

The power to rpm ratio is wores then my 3540 mokup (hypergear atr45) while 160kws short. Looks very lazy and not making much power either. Not a very good turbo.

[jet2nv]

bare in mind its only a t3 turbo rated the same as a gt3071 and made 3rwkw shy at the same rpm and boost as a garrett

[kwickr33]

except 3071 pumps out way much more mid range, which this one's making GT50's mid range with a 3071's top end.

[jet2nv]

well there must be something wrong with the tuner/turbo or engine cause it was very close power very close dyno to not much difference at all across the whole board

lets just think its a $400 turbo hg are 1500 so its not a bad power figure for the price

[SargeRX8]

Have you seen a dyno graph for a 3071? That dyno graph up there is disgusting. Sags and flops and makes power at what about 5krpm then falls off all the way to red line. I bet that housing on the turbo will glow red after a couple runs.

If I had to do it all over again, knowing what I know now, I would still go hypergear over this turbo. Keep it for a Civic, a skyline deserves more.

[jet2nv]

yeah i kno but its not mine and not in a skyline his goin to a gt3076 just wanted to do this at a laugh

and i know his dyno graph of the gt3071 i was there and watched it

not goin to name names but the tuner is known for bad tunes he has done a fair few shitty tunes here in melbourne

sayin that he might goto a different tuner and try another power run of a new fresh tune

his 3071 was pretty much the same as the dyno i put up there not much difference at all so giving the 3071 dyno sheets are better then this then it clearly rules out the turbo

so its either engine/ or tuner

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

i know you want this to be the most awesome turbo in history, but face facts... it isn't.

at this point you cant really say anything about the tune/tuner as it doesn't have one.

yes you DO need to tune for the different turbo, even if it makes similar power. also the kw figure is probably the least important part of the tune, and not the reason we tune cars. it's not how many kw you make, but how you make them

this is what a ~280rwkw turbo on an RB 25 SHOULD look like:

note the response.

[jet2nv]

yeah i know what your saying joey , i kno its not the best turbo but what im trying to say with the tuner who tuned his engine using a gt3071 the dyno graph looked excatly the same as the one i posted which seems to tell me its the tuner as it didnt look very good even with the garrett turbo with a full tune

i dont want to name the guy who tuned it but i kno alot of people have had problems with him maybe i should tell my mate to go visit trent and get a REAL tune done

[jet2nv]

turbo is still goin strong guys

its been given alot of abuse since fitted and still goin strong

i think we have a nice cheap power making winner right here

Obviously people have not been blunt enough... It's a piece of shit!

[jet2nv]

i guess thats there opinion as i dont really have one as its not mine i couldnt care less only stating that its still goin strong for a shitty $400 bolt on turbo with no tune

its booked in for a tune next week so i guess we will see what its like

Kudos to him for at least giving it a go, after all it's not that often you see proper results of a eBay turbo posted up. It may not be as good as a legit garret, but at least it's making some sort of boost...then technically it's doing what it's meant to do...in saying that though I would have waited for the proper one...and he can't sell it and make any means of profit off it...it's already a cheap turbo, a used eBay one you'd probably have to pay someone to take it away haha...

Nice job anyway. Like others have said a photo of the turbo on the car would be nice...Cheers!
