GO HIGHER POWER MUHAHAHAHAHA. I did caps to convince you.

This thread has taught me alot about turbo sizing and how it all works - thanks team.

And no its not max for pump fuel - mine hit 404KW with max'ed injectors and turbos still had puff (2.6L).

Pegged back to 370+.

The PT6262 CEA was not put on this 3.2 build, it was done to replace the T78 on the 2.6 and recommended by the builder as it would not be hard to fit to the existing setup. It was much better

I left the 6262 on to see if it worked on the 3.2 build , if not, it could always be changed.

The flex fuel sensor was an after thought and something my son could use if he wanted. I cannot buy E85 here.

While it is on the Dyno they will be able to have a better idea if a different Turbo would do the job better and then choose one to do the job. But I am not taking it off until the new mechanic recommends it.

So enough of guessing, time to wait and see, if I have to change the turbo, then you can say, I TOLD YOU SO :spank:

LOL, Talking to a builder that used the 6262 on his 2.6 and it was full boost around 4300rpm :)

Originally I was going to run my hks t04z on my current motor, some guys said it would be responsive but they also said that the turbo is still small for the engine. It was going onto my 2.7 stroker, to4z is equivalent to 6262

What did you want from your car, a lot of blokes here are saying the 6262 is too big to get response, duh?

Wish I knew a little more, but time will sort that out and not too long to go :/

my setup is built for weekend drives and the odd power cruise etc just straight line attack, my motor was built to run e85 CR 9.1:1

I originally was happy to run the t04z for response but then I change my mind as now we are trying to build a fast responsive 1000hp, now running precision 6870 also my setup will be revved to 9,500-10,000rpm

So pretty much drag power band

I wouldn't bother with the e85 tune if I were you as you said you can't get a hold of it regularly.

i also think CRD has done a good job on the tune. Seems good and safe as my tuner also doesn't like big boost on pump fuel.

pick how much power you would be happy with and build your setup around it

But that's just my opinion,

Sounds like you are going to have a ton of fun , all the best :cheers:

The E85 is just an option.

Not going on about the tune and I do not care about the boost level, the question is , why does it drop of. As you know there was a major problem with the tune and it would cough and fart over 6000rpm. I wonder if by dropping the boost off it might be masking the original problem. I ask the builder but did not get an answer why the boost is tapering off by 5.5psi.

I find this a fair question to ask and would expect an answer , but ????

They know you aren't coming back, you've plastered it all over this thread. Basically you left happy and now they are leaving at that, but because a bunch of people jumped on here and said "why is the boost falling away" now you want answers

Time is money and you have no interest in spending money with them anymore, so they will give their time to people who will. I know of workshops that charge for time on phone

He already knows the answer. He is just ignoring it. An engine is just an air pump. His results are on par with a majority of other results using the same turbo on 3l+ capacity but somehow he believes it should be different. Maybe some fairy dust and a happy dyno is what he needs.

What he needs to do is decide if he likes the way the car drives or not and stop looking at dyno sheets and close down this thread so he doesn't have everyone's opinion and just has his own

If I knew the answer, I would not ask the question.

Your saying other blokes have the same Dyno results as mine, I do not mean the HP, show me one where it tapers off around 5000rpm and the bloke is not asking why, love to see it/them

No, it does not drive how I want it, maybe it never will , give me some of your fairy dust :)

Type in 'PT6262 graphs' in Google images, click on the sites and you will see for yourself what the results are. From supra forums to bimmer to evo forums your turbo does the same thing, that is it peaks at 5k to 6k and then loses 5+ psi when it goes beyond its VE. Actually all turbos will. That's why they go from a 6262 to a 6266 or 6466 with less restrictive turbine side where their VE limit is not tested and they hold boost to higher rpm. Invest 2 hours in doing this and you will never ask 'why' again.

Just for the record, for someone that wants low end torque I think your setup is awesome, but you are just getting sucked into the peak HP, chest beating, dyno queen head space, do yoirself a favour and forget about it. Just drive the thing for a year. Don't worry about the numbers.

V8's are overrated, Just set that RB up properly, look at the results with FP turbo's, an FP35 combo would give you what you want both response and top end with right housing, just look at 34GeeTee's results with only a FP3076 on an RB25, he got 390kw's with big mid range, with a 3.2L and FP35 it could be a perfect match...

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
