Hey Guys,

Had my car dyno on saturday, i made 148rwkw with a stock rb20det with exhaust and FMIC, on stock boost, the guys who dyno the car thought it was way to high so checked out the dyno setup which was correct.

Does this sound right? I have the rb20det in my silvia and didn't bother checking the turbo before it was on. Do you think it is a stock turbo?

yeh this sounds right.

standard they are suppose to come with 210ps so it does equal around what you have got. next get the turbo and computer done.

my cuz did the same mods as you and the turbo/computur pulled 200rwkw.

most things i've read on mods to the r32 rb20det say that with the mods you have and also a rechipped ECU running 14psi should get around the 160rwkw mark?? are you shaw it was kws not hp as thats about the same reading?? i've been told that a vg30 turbo could get that kind of result but also with higher psi and tuning???

210-215ps is around 160kw AT the Flywheel. Not rear wheels. :D

148rwkw (~200-210kw at the FLYwheel) with say 11-12psi (which is where it should be with an Exhaust) is around the mark.

With AFR's at 12:1 & a few more degree's of ignition timing mine made 152rwkw on 12psi. I would say your AFR's are not rich, which is bad as when you decide to pump more boost in the old fuel pump won't want to come to the party and you will lean out.

15psi only saw a 12rwkw increase as the turbo begins to heat the air more and runs out of efficiency.

With a tuned computer 170rwkw is around the maximum you will get.

200rwkw must have been a very optimistic high reading dyno. Most probably a Hub Dyno.

A turbo can only flow so many cfm's before it starts chopping and superheating the air.

What dyno was that 200rwkw pulled on? All bets are it wasn't ran in the correct shootout mode/temp sensor placed incorrectly or it was on a hub dyno. :D

Doesn't matter, Dyno's are only good as a base tuning tool.

Shootout mode tries to make it an even playing field.

My RB20 did 137 rwkw with turbo back exhaust, pod and R33 turbo on stock boost and everything else stock. A/F ratio was 13 and it had a slight misfire.

After upgrading the fuel system it went down to 130 rwkw and a healthy 11.3 fuel ratio and no misfire.

This was on DynoDynamics dyno in shootout mode at Unigroup.

I just fitted a wolf 3d along with a front mount, pump, full exhaust etc and rolled 152rwkw on a roller. I've had it on a hub a few times and the numbers are CONSIDERABLY higher. Without the dump it was showing 176 rwkws (yeah.. right). Car is heaps faster on the road. Just looking at turbo upgrades now.... I'd like a real 200 - 210 rwkws.

Off topic but hey. How are you finding the wolf 3D? Is it the V4 and did you get the plug and play version?

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
