$1000? Hpi dumps are $520 plus delivery from Nengun.

I'd say you couldn't find anything because when pushing for such high numbers with low mounts you'll be needing everything in your favour. How much of a difference they will make, NFI.

Summary of above:

Will they flow that much? Probably not.

Making 450kw from low mounts? You would hope you have every possible supporting mod to get you the best result you can, because you are asking for every last fraction of a HP.

thread/

setup im thinking of putting together.

built 26

-5s

270 cams/springs

port matched manifolds

3in front pipes, decat 4in exhaust

realistically that setup will be closer to 400, but want a 450 buffer, who knows, it might take 25/26 pounds then be closer to 450..

been chatting with a shop (overseas) who does allot of 800 horse twin GTX setups, he tells me the 34 dumps would flow that power, when asked the benafit of the larger hpi dumps, he says, turbo spools a little earlier

Care up share more info on the big power low mount Gtx combinations?

It's a a street car, so it will spend allot of time "flexing" larger cam/lumpy idle is a must:) even if it mean a little less response

Got a vid of those Unigroup cams on idle

I don't have the car at home ATM but these are on E85. I specifically asked for the idle to be calm as we could get it. If I wanted it grumpy then it's just a few taps on the keyboard. On petrol it's grumpy as hell!

There is a bit of info and a few graphs up on here recently if you have a search. I helped with a 500kw twin GTX combo running factory airbox, manifolds and cooler/piping, so there is definitely more to be made if you don't mind a defect.

In your opinion, what do you think the factory airbox is worth at that sort of power level? I've always wanted to do a back to back with a set of pods.

With the filter and lid dropped it made 20kw more, so there is a little in it with a good twin pod setup. (as long as they get cold air)

We don't get much of an option down here, the customer wanted it to look factory if he was pulled over, so it was a great result for him.

What car/ airbox was that ?

I'm hoping for that or close to it with the R34 box

    • Also, I logged some data from the ECU for each session (mostly oil pressures and various temps, but also speed, revs etc, can't believe I forgot accelerator position). The Ecutek data loads nicely to datazap, I got good data from sessions 2, 3 and 4: https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-2?log=0&data=7 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-3?log=0&data=6 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-4?log=0&data=6 Each session is cut into 3 files but loaded together, you can change between them in the top left. As the test sessions are mostly about the car, not me, I basically start by checking the oil pressure (good, or at least consistent all day). These have an electrically controlled oil pump which targets 25psi(!) at low load and 50 at high. I'm running a much thicker oil than recommended by nissan (they said 0w20, I'm running 10w40) so its a little higher. The main thing is that it doesn't drop too far, eg in the long left hand fish hook, or under brakes so I know I'm not getting oil surge. Good start. Then Oil and Coolant temp, plus intercooler and intake temps, like this: Keeping in mind ambient was about 5o at session 2, I'd say the oil temp is good. The coolant temp as OK but a big worry for hot days (it was getting to 110 back in Feb when it was 35o) so I need to keep addressing that. The water to air intercooler is working totally backwards where we get 5o air in the intake, squish/warm it in the turbos (unknown temp) then run it through the intercoolers which are say 65o max in this case, then the result is 20o air into the engine......the day was too atypical to draw a conclusion on that I think, in the united states of freedom they do a lot of upsizing the intercooler and heat exchanger cores to get those temps down but they were OK this time. The other interesting (but not concerning) part for me was the turbo speed vs boost graph: I circled an example from the main straight. With the tune boost peaks at around 18psi but it deliberately drops to about 14psi at redline because the turbos are tiny - they choke at high revs and just create more heat than power if you run them hard all the way. But you can also see the turbo speed at the same time; it raises from about 180,000rpm to 210,000rpm which the boost falls....imagine the turbine speed if they held 18psi to redline. The wastegates are electrically controlled so there is a heap of logic about boost target, actual boost, delta etc etc but it all seems to work well
    • hahah when youtube subscribers are faster than my updates here. Yes some vid from the day is up, here:  Note that as with all track day videos it is boring watching after the bloopers at the start.  The off was a genuine surprise to me, I've literally done a thousand laps around the place and I've never had instability there; basically it rolled into oversteer, slipped, gripped and spat me out. On the way off I mowed down one of the instructor's cones and it sat there all day looking at me with accusing cone eyes as I drove past. 1:13:20 was my fastest lap, and it was in the second session, 3rd lap.  It (or me!) got slower throughout the day as it got hotter.      
    • It sounds like you want what the Toyota Landcruisers have for their roof racks. Wanna know what you end up with? Rust holes in the roof, and water everywhere...
    • Discovered today that if I select reverse first and take my foot off the brake, then select drive, the drive indicator light works and so does the tiptronic gear indicator. 
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Does anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
