Uh oh ran into trouble... Turbo is struggling to make power. So far the airbox has been eliminated as cause. May be Nismo exhaust or turbo. Only making 230kw at 18psi tapering to 15. Cam timing is correct.

Jez is on it trying to diagnose.

Boost leak could be the issue but then again, its Jez and Im sure he would have picked it up at 1st sight.

If you want to test the cross over style FMIC setup. I have a spare Hybrid intercooler core & Im sure someone would have a spare set of pipes for the cold side for you to test?

Hope it's a simple fix mate. I know Stao did a but of comparative testing for intercoolers and found the blitz and similar turn flows had a much higher pressure drop compared to the other style. Definitely wouldn't account for that much of a loss though, mines certainly fine.

I hope it's not a compression issue. Fingers crossed for you

Thanks raj!!! I have my old cooler just a Kkr front mount and pipes That should be good right ?

Should be a good start in trouble shooting.

Cue the beer and long weekends in the garage.

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
