no matter the details of this, most will look at it how it is, its was at CRD for a bloody long time, they built it so good on them for that but they didnt deliver the final result, and in alot of peoples minds that is what counts!! call it how it is... the JEZ kicked ass with it, you'll have some wobbly knees in the next week when you drop the hammer pete, so jealous right now...

Well done Pete, great result!!!! Am looking forward to some vids :D

When I posted the pic of the 6Boost being installed I had an email from the old builder saying , oh you might notice the Turbo is a different model, I said yes it was noticed and he said that he told me about this when the build was being done, I said I think I would remember that, he said I might have been pissed, good call but that is something I would remember , well , I would think I would remember, hic hic

This does seem pretty weird I reckon. If they had already told you about the turbo, why bother writing you an email to "remind" you. Oh well, it's all done now, enjoy it for what it is :)

If most look a bit deeper the truth is quite obvious, you didn't have to be Nostradamus to worked it out 30 pages back. Nothing has changed in 15 years of forum garage battles. A shame really.

But what's important is Pete gets his car back and is happy with it.

I remember reading an article and an english guy built a RIPS RB30 in a R33 with a PPG Getrag 6Speed they detuned it to 700HP as the torque smashed the gearbox to peices after a launch down the strip.

Was on pump gas too.

So have fun hahahaha with that monster and that insane torque number. Think there are reasons AMG also electronically limit their torque numbers :P

You are right, they just bought the Turbo thing up AFTER I posted pics of the cracks in the manifold and 6boost, I was surprised to get an email from them,

Matters not, I have not stopped smiling since I got the Dynos and could see the car is running much better, even at my piss stops through the night I had a smile :yes:

Vids, what sort of vids can I do, Dyno tunes are boring , see if I can get some tyre action if my drive line and AD08Rs let me without leaving the box behind :bomb_ie:

Well , thanks, I think lol

I will see how it feels and go from there, it will be interesting to see how it feels to drive instead of looking at a Dyno graph, about 700rpm earlier full boost,so see if it gets it going.

The tractive effort/torque is 974Nm , peaking at 5250rpm

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
