Ok, I feel my GTS-T is feeling a little neglected so I'm considering a 100 hp shot of NOS on demand on WOT.

RB25/30 - GT3076R - Haltech Platinum 2000. 337 rwkw.

Good move ?, or should I save the dollars and wait until my kids pillage it all.

I don't drag it.

I'm hoping for a setup which the Haltech can introduce Nos only in certain gears , revs and at WOT.

But right now my injectors are maxed , my intercooler has 2 1/2 in and out, and I'm running stock manifold.

Will I still get anything more with NOS ?

As long as your exhuast is up to the extra flow, yes you will see great gains. The stock intake manifold makes it easier to get a more even distrobution from single point of injection.

Your intake pipework etc wont affect the amount of extra power you can gain from nitrous.

The trick is to get the nitrous consistant. To do this you will need a bottle pressure gauge and heater on a pressure switch.

Is the engine still stock internally? If it is, I would suggest no more than 75ph fixed shot or 100hp progressive shot. If it's built, then think 100 fixed and 150 progressive, depending on boost pressure etc.

Put a twin scroll 3788R on it instead!

I dont usually go for performance in limited quantities. Id prefer to know I can hoon interstate if I wanted to LOL

Le mans 24hr of Hoon

So get a G size bottle :woot:

Will lift the bonnet and intake manifold 10ft off the ground if it backfires though lol

Yeah... leanouts/nitrous backfires are pretty spectacular. Only ever seen them on carbied engines though... not saying it can't happen, but I've never heard of a backfire on a FI efi engine (engines that don't mix air and fuel inthe intake manifold 'plennum').

I think it's a great 'power adder'. There is no real trade off for the extra power when you'r not using it. For an extra 100hp of kick, you don't have to use a bigger turbo- more lag, you don't need bigger injectors- fuel economy/tune resolution, your not shifting the power curve up or down- if your using cams/cam gears, there's very minimal down time for install and it dosn't cost a bundle. Not to mention the dyno curve goes straight up at activation- ha ha ha!

Thanks for all that info.

Yep car is built forged bottom end, Poncams, and Plazaman plenum.

Exhaust is stock ex manifold to 3 inch.

Intercooler has 2.5 either side.

3076 is 0.82 Ar, should have gone 1.06.

Running 21 psi now, does have more in it.

it does feel like its choking at high rpm

    • 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.
