Some people have that and make 380kw.

It has something to do with the turbo choice.

Bigger turbo isn't very specific. I assume it's hardly hardly any bigger and that explains the the power.

Bigger decent turbo.

Much power.

It's a turboneticts t66 it's much larger then stock

That's why in op I said I think my turbo is outdated but it still does the job was thinking a gtx3076 and wanted some turbo advice as well on what is a good turbo for 300 if not more

That turbo is capable of 430odd kw, any reason you want that particular one?

T66 should be able to make more power than what you are currently making.

I can't beleive Scotty hasn't mentioned E85 yet!

I am trying hard... But I don't want to scare him off with information overload.

Do some research, it will save you a LOT of heartache.

Okay Jesus Christ this is a roller coaster.

Keep your R33 head and slap it on an RB30 bottom end.

Keep your turbo.

Buy X-Spurt 1000cc injectors.

Sell your Power FC and buy a Link/Haltech.

Keep standard intake manifold.

Keep the hot side (turbo side) all the same.

Get it tuned by a REPUTABLE tuner. Run it at 20psi and enjoy obscene amounts of power, who cares what it makes, 300kw is just a number. I guarantee you will be happy with whatever it makes.

This is the best/cheapest/easiest/least f**king about way to do what you want.

    • Yeah, hard to find and a pain in the ass to change with the transverse engine. I’ve worked on a GTiR before and it’s not a job I’d ever want to do again. theres a company in South Africa that makes RS3 gearbox adaptors for the AWD SR20 including gearbox mounts, so I could modernise it and go a dual clutch with paddles. For now tho, it ticks all the boxes. Super cheap, can throw the kids and their junk in the back, and SR20 that I can turbo cheaply, a CVT that’s not a dog’s breakfast like the V35, and has 80% interchangeable parts with stuff I can source from the wreckers cheaply…. But it’s still unique. I love the wagon back of the Autech version. It’s cheap enough that I can buy another stock manual FWD Primera with SR20VE, swap the gearbox to the N15 pulsar short gear ratio box, swap out the brakes to the R32 ones I pulled off my 32, register it on club plates and take it racing. $1300 shipping from NZ. Heaps of parts and aftermarket builders for transverse SR20’s in NZ.
    • Hard to say, just pop the rocker covers off and have a look if you think it's cammed. You probably need to replace the valve cover gasket/half moons anyways.
    • From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢 
    • Remember this is 1988 tech.
    • Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.
