Doesn't sound that bad Pete. The new dump will improve response, something you should really feel driving it rather than see on a dyno. Obviously the turbo was selected for response so that's why its running out of puff up top on a 3.2 and why the bigger dump isnt making much difference in the top end. Don't stress about it. As long as all the tuning is done right so you don't have the previous issues. Don't worry about e85 either, it would be a head f**k for a daily seeing that its becoming more scarce. See how you go but I recon it should be exactly what you want. Hope so anyway. :)

I am not sure how it works but the PT6262 CEA is rated at over 700HP and this is only running around 520HP @ 22psi so I do not think it is running out of puff, might need some boost to get the 6262 going harder , do I need more boost, I do not think so,but it would be interesting to see how it goes :)

But as you said, it will be all I want if the dump gives a little more response and it only matters when you are driving it.

Why didn't that embed......

What's the response of car like, or not driving it yet?

Not yet, should be sometime this week, if the leak has been sorted, should know tomorrow and maybe it will be tuned then ?

Based on others, 6266 is better for higher revs on a 3.2. Your 62 rear is probably restricting exhaust gas flow. Even if you increase boost its a scenario of diminishing returns comparing to a bigger turbo, but the trade off would be low end. But the 3.2 will look after that to a point.

Your probably around the 560-570hp mark ATM Pete

700 is absolute best case scenario

ATM it is about ,615HP ish crank. well I think 386 awkw is around 520whp

I know I keep saying this, but I still want it to go earlier , so I will wait and see what happens when I give it a run :)

I'm probably missing something;

Ran car at full power (identical set up?) and noticed less power than before...casual observation, nothing more to add?

Turned boost down (from 22 psi) and then it doesn't misfire...is that being offered as the solution to the misfire?

Put other cams in that were found to be better, then took them out again...?

I know this will sound dumb to you blokes that have driven these cars for yonks, but getting used of a car that revs so high is very strange.

This car was limited at 10000rpm, or maybe no limiter,the first time I went over 10000rpm because I was too slow to change up, it went nuts from 6000rpm , hit 10,000 in a flash and I shit myself LOL

Lets see how it goes, only a few days to wait until I get my arse in the car, that is the only test :)

All jokes aside, what's the obsession with turning them so damn hard? Is it the noise of it screaming it's head off?

Mainly because it would not go over 6500rpm, there was no need to do it. Shit load of fun @5500rpm :)

Not talking about your setup. I'm talking about turning the to 10,000 rpm and beyond for a car that's driven on the street. Is 8000 rpm not enough?

All of the above. He he. Love it.

Seeing you're such a fan of 26s, I think you will like to know I am putting a t04z on mine shortly. More lag, just the way you like it, he he

    • Hi everyone, I've been wrestling with this for a while now and have been trying to find out the cause. For context, the turbos used are Garrett 2860 -5s, the BOV is a BNR32 HKS SSQV IV kit, the car is currently tuned to ~470 whp on 17.5 psi. The car drives normally, pulls well when it doesn't happen, and I can replicate it fairly easily. It does not sound like turbo shuffle or flutter. The engine has only a thousand or so miles and has had this behavior since it was completed. After my engine was built for my R32 GTR, I noticed that the car now sometimes makes an air discharge sound on what appears to be positive boost pressure that sounds really similar to a BOV. I had thought that it was a BOV issue but even when replacing it with a brand new unit, the sound persisted. It seems like it's coming from the passenger side but I may be mistaken. The closest scenario I could find was this post here https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/ started by @yakshii and it sounds very similar. As in, at partial throttle once I reach positive boost I begin to hear the same psh psh psh psh psh sound like air is leaking somewhere when I keep the throttle in the same position. It most commonly happens in 4th gear at around 3-3.5k RPM and 5th gear around 2.5-3k RPM, which seems to coincide with normal positive boost thresholds. It might be similar to what @Austrian GTR mentioned about his own HKS SSQV. Notable difference would be that when he applies more throttle when it happens, it stops. In my scenario if I apply more throttle during this repeated psh psh psh sound, the cadence of the sound gets faster and louder rather than stopping. If I lift off slightly and apply throttle again, it will normally stop and pull without issue. I've checked all rubber couplers to ensure that they are tight, but have not gotten the opportunity to properly do a pressurized boost leak test. If anyone has had similar experiences or thoughts on what might be the cause, I'd be very keen to hear them. I also have a video of it happening from inside the cabin, if that would make it easier to understand: https://youtu.be/2zqZXcx8jbA
    • I'd want at least $40K for mine, but thats easy to say cos I'm not selling anyway.
    • That's incorrect. We have 4 seasons, consisting of pre winter, winter, post winter and a small glimpse of hope!
