by the looks of that turbo front cover, it should be making 630hp

Yeah well I want 400hp with a safe tune but didnt get anywhere near that so il put injectors and afm and take it to a different tuner

Probably also replace that turbo, cos that's gonna be utter junk at 400rwhp, IF it gets there. 5500rpm full boost lol.

Yes this ^ ^ ^ ^

I make the same power you have at the moment with full boost of 18psi around 3200rpm, Just to show you how much of a mismatched combo that turbo is for the power you want.

Go look in the hypergear thread or the RB25 turbo results thread to find a better turbo more suited to the power you want.

Its running stock injectors which is very high. Put in a set of 1000ccs it should make towards 350rwkws mark.

[Super Drager]

Almost looks like one of those junk KKR1000 turbos.

Bleh, I'm always hijacking threads

RB20DET

Stock injectors + T04e (yes laggy already I know)

171kw.. Also bad tuner.

I have 550cc injectors about to go in + better tune, will I see any benefit?

P.S.

Still saving for an SS1.5 from hypergear.

Save your money and buy the Hypergear turbo, then retune.

Hahaha.. What I though.

Regardless of which turbo you use to reach your power goal, you will need to replace your injectors and AFM anyway, so I would buy them first before considering selling and replacing your turbo.

Do that first and see whether you can get the power and response your after by increasing the boost pressure also.

At 16psi for a big turbo, you won't be maximising it's abilities. I'd say at a minimum, boost it up. Your low boost setting say 16psi and a highboost setting of 20.

As hypergear has mentioned, you'll be making a lot of power.

or if he goes back to the same tuner killing his engine

Courto, it may be possible your tuner is quite aware your injectors and AFM are limiting factors to the power you require. Knowing you have limited experience he just pegged the power at 330hp so you wouldn't blame him for the very quick death your car would have otherwise. Just for fun you could get 1,000 injectors, AFM & remove any restrictions in the exhaust, then go for it.

If the turbo is crap you will soon find out (with a reputable tuner) so just flog it off to the bin and get a 3076 and enjoy. By the way, if your tuner cannot explain to you in plain English why your combination doesn't perform it is probably because, like most mechanics, that he failed English at school and quite possibly every other subject. Find a tuner who actually enjoys educating people and knows the value of good service regardless of your own skill level.

That said, CRAP, that's a big turbo.
