This all started cause a gearbox broke,

I think it was actually 4 but that's in the past and right now if I want to drive mine I go to the garage and turn the key :)

And when yours wasn't running, I could have wandered out the back, pushed the boat out and rip skidz too. Your car was off the road for a similar time wasn't it? ?

The car was pulled off the road running. I could have whacked a stock box in it, replace the turbo and it would have running within a couple weeks.

Can't remember it was a few years though  was about the same time you broke your engine I think

Ok ladies simmer down.

Time to start taking bets on the power figure.

Apparently 480 AWKW was the most power out of a 8374 awkw (out of an Evo) Scott has seen on his dyno.

Nick (3.0/8374) went 461, 24 psi

Pete (3.2/vcam/8374) went 457awkw, 25 psi tapering back to 21 psi (120,000 turbine speed).

I don't know. It's all dictated by that magic 127,000 RPM turbine speed. What will be more interesting will be the boost level that it'll need to get there. Going off the -5 setup, it went 441 at 19 psi. Realistically, I should have just left it there.  Boost level I'm gonna peg at no more then 25 psi, tapering back down.

i know another evo making 450kw 8374 .92 internal gate at 36 psi

why stop at 25 psi

Because of turbine speed.

127k max. If it reaches that, the turbo is done, irrespective of pressure. 

Its no secret that these things have certain parameters to keep within, just like any mechanical part.

What speed are you at with your 30 or 32 psi?

and you know 25 = 127k?

is it to keep them alive or are you saying it wont anymore power beyond 127k

i was about to turn mine up to 34psi haha

No I don't know 25 psi will equal 127K. It was an educated guess... I could be well off. We will know because the speed sensor will be going back to the ecu.

Hopefully the wheel doesn't end up out the back of the exhaust. You're bloody crazy to turn it up that much without knowing what it's spinning at. Not the turbo's fault it if fails.

    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
