DYNO RESULT: T517Zs on GTR

[whatsisname]

You guys think it's hard to launch with a GT-R! Try doing it with a lowly GTS (*see piss poor 60' in sig'*) It doesn't help that I can't drive for shite.

[Emre]

Ha haa... I feel for you Matt. Those Nittos will straighten you out with some practice mate.

As you know, it's all relevant. We are talking about modified GTRs compared to stockish ones.

[whatsisname]

Thanks mate If the weather holds up I'll get to try out the Nittos tommorrow.

Yes, very true. Stock and modified GT-Rs are very different beasts to tame, naturally stock being the easier of the two.

[JAGR33]

Emre- they're very impressive times there, 124mph!!!! I guess if I get my 60' times in the low 1.73, I might gain a tenth of a second or two.....

Calder was fantastic last night, had a total of about 7 runs, not that many cars, and perfect weather.....

[Penfold]

Do the ax5360s bolt straight onto the rb26 manifold or do they require some modification??

[JAGR33]

Penfold- yes bolt straight up, providing u get the kit which suits the rb26.... From what I've heard they are an awesome turbo, very responsive and make good power.....

Anyone here wanna share their experiences with these turbos?? *looks at vspecv*

[vspecv]

i have only fitted them to 1 car a customer running a motec, but they were awesome. better than 2530s, peak power pretty much the same, just more responsive.

I was talking to someone who has a set for sale that said they are a little laggier than the 2530's.... He said they are rated at 340hp each, but would be good for 600hp.

Anyone else?

A good friend of mine is running a single AX53B60 on a Pulsar GTi-R - this thing is a rocket! Lag? What lag!? Full boost by 3000rpm! He also confirmed they are about the same as the HKS 2530 - perhaps a touch better.

Just wondering who you have had good tuning experiences with in WA as I may be looking for someone soon.

The best in the west certainly does not use dynapack and his dyno dynamics dyno is extremely accurate - if anyone can reduce a chart I will attach my latest chart (not the one below)

jezzrrr uses SST Automotives in Welshpool afaik.

Another place I reccomend is Tim Slako's West Racing in Osborne Park.

SST's know their stuff and are far too reasonably priced.

SST.

Hmm.. that's very interesting: less lag is always good Anyone got actual figures, or better yet, a comparison between the two?

LW.

hi got the t78 which spooled up round 1bar on 5500, what type of power figures are the t517zs you have rated at in total as a pair 600hp 650hp 700? and at what boost? might be worth swapping to keep it all undercover thats all.

Hi Emre,

Its not that I want more power (not yet!!), I was just stating that how the JMS drag car can get 381 rwkws on 1.3 bar boost?!?!?!?

they usually run a mixture of toulene, acetone and avgas, you could say its rocket fuel... it makes ALOT of difference to the output of the car, much more boost and timing can be fed into the engine without detonation coming on, and thats how they make there power

they do it with most of there dyno runs, marketing i would assume, as not many people know what fuel they run and all they see is there power figure

they made 293rwkw on an sr20det silvia with a single T517Z, fuel ratio was as below:

avgas:toulene:acetone -----> 6:3:2

The T517Z's are rated at 600 hp, got my engine rebuilt last month and got dynoed a 335rwkws at 21psi...... full boost by 5000rpm
