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 can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
