what said above is don't under estimate OEM, until you reach the limits.

Don't buy gear that's unnecessary for the power level wanted

Not sure what you ment buy that, the car has had a lot of work even before the upgrade. I had already maxed oem before I spent money on the turbo injectors computer intake and manifold so that makes no sence.

Yes it has an front mount intercooler I just didn't list it. Prob got a few others I haven't said

What manifold is it running? Are you getting adequate flow to the wastegate?

IE its not a china stainless manifold with a meter long WG pipe is it?

What do you mean max it at? We had flat 11.6 afr. 18 psi and it slowly dropped back to nearly 14 psi may that have been my problem?

I can't remember when or how much the microtech was its a plug and play with hand controller.

Not sure if it's a china manifold. It could be. It's got 2 pipes that join the collector and joint to 1 pipe to the gate

You bought crappy parts and thought it would add to your power goals. Many others have done the same thing, don't feel like we are singling you out. All you needed to max out the GT3076 was a 3 inch exhaust, turbo, decent modern injectors and a Walbro 255. A decent ecu (adaptronic etc) wouldn't have cost much more than the Microguess.

you mean micro-iceage/Neanderthal? lol fuark man I road tuned a car with it before, I was so close to just calling it quits.. it's was built by morons.

1x table is just RPM vs. ignition (yes there's no load) and there's another table for load and how much ignition you would like to shave off.. LOL..

you said " I had already maxed oem before I spent money on the turbo injectors computer intake and manifold so that makes no sence."

So I ask again, what did you previous setup max out at? and what did it comprise of?

Guys are making 200kW with stock injectors/manifolds/turbo/coilpacks etc.. with just more boost & ignition/fuel maps optimised (either through a toshi remap/Z32 new ecu, etc.)

My last set up was

Stock turbo

14 psi

Cooler

3" straight exhaust

Coil packs

Blitz boost controller

Bosh 040

Tuned remped computer

Can't think of anything else, made like 186 kW I think

I don't think most of my parts are cheap and crappy.

Garret gt3076r .63

Pro gate

Denso 880 injectors

Greddy copy plenum, been machined flat. So just like a genuine

Unsure of exhaust manifold but my friends vl has the same one making 589hp on 20psi

Blitz duel stage boost controller was told it was great!

Microcrap lt12 well I took some bad advice on that one

Turbosmart fuel reg

Bosh 044 pump off a relay for 13.8v

Can't remember what else.

The suspension and underbody is well ajustable everything. The car had cost a lot.

I think I'm about 70hp shy of what I thought I was building the motor for.

Mark did say the air temp adjustment prob was not in the engine bay and may have robbed me of a few hp?

The stock manifold was cracked and old and not a high mount set up and needed to for external gate.

Boost controller is a blitz duel stage. I can send a pic if u like? I had to change the fuel pump on the dyno because the old 040 let go. It's now a 044.

Maybe I just have a really tied motor. I'll do a compression test soon.

I know the microtechs are not the best but I didn't think it would cost me this much. Mark said he thinks the .63 is to small and that's y it drops boost off back to wast gate spring pressure.

I thought maybe some one might have had this sort of issue in the passed. I pretty much just copied someone's setup n thought it would work so I dunno what about a boost leak some where?

I was going to ask what the condition of the engine is like. Do a compression test and see if you can work anything out.

and you definently need a printout of the dyno graph. That will tell alot more of the story

not all 3076's get 300kw on 98, mine with gtx3076 0.83 external gate was limited to 278kw on 16psi, it just wouldn't take more timing so a 0.63 would of been even worse,

mine would rise 10kw per 1psi, so with 18psi you might get 265kw which maybe quite normal.. mine was running 175psi each cylinder which I thought might of been the reason,

run some E85 and you might find it will smash thru 310kw

You should get more power then that - mine is 284rwkw but with a little bit more timing I have gotten it to 294rwkw however on some loads would ping so safe at this.

This is just on straight 98, my gate is welded on the back of the turbo housing.

Similar support mods, obvisously different ecu and tuner but for your reference:

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
