i dont know of anyone making more than 350kw using 2530s on pulp. so i guess the answer is no

I have often wondered about that as well. I have seen a single 2530 make 240 rwkw on an RB25DET. Now I know there are some differences between an RB25 2530 and an RB26 2530, but it isn't 70 rwkw worth. HKS rate the RB26 2530 at 310 bhp, so the pair should make 620 bhp, that's 460 kw. Plus other HKS turbo seem a little underrated, I think HKS quote 10% in most cases when pushed. I have never seen a GTR loose more than 60 rwkw (and 85 awkw), so I can't work out why a pair of 2530's wouldn't make ~400 rwkw. So I can only put it down to other factors, like tuning and support stuff.

There a couple of guys I have been working with that have 2530's and they are doing all the stuff that I would suggest is necessary to get 400 rwkw. So time will tell if it is possible. :cheers:

Ben from racepace told me there was a car there with 2530's pushing 400@wheels, most people who are running 320-350 aren't pushing the turbos for all they are worth.

Emre: i thought you were running 2530's and making around 400rwkw?

400rwkw from 2530s is a big ask on pump fuel.

I had a figure of 400rwkw+ on decent fuel, but obviously it's not my daily tune.

As mentioned, there need to be a lot of support modifications in place to run that sort of power daily, reliably.

For the record, i still have the stock intercooler, factory intake, internals, etc.

Holy Jesus... Look at the size of that radiator!!!! I feel so.................. inadequate :Oops: :)

Very nice welding on that intake pipe :D

Is that oil catch can vented at all? What's with the catch can between the rocker covers, and the secondary one with the washer bottle?

the large catch tank vents to the atmosphere.

dont think the one on the rocker covers does much at all, except look pretty

i did a nice job on the welding huh..not.thats bens fabricators handy work.

Hardcore! But where do you fit the twin 18" subs bro?? :confused: ;)

Emre: Engine is all bolted together, in the car and started up with standard injectors, old HKS F-ConV and standard AFMs.... Runs beautifully with zero leaks :) Will be calling the tuner tomorrow morning at 8am and see when we can slot her in for a run-in tune with the PowerFC Pro and then I'll start pounding out the kms as quickly as possible so we can get her back on the dyno and do some proper tuning :D:);)

I'm excited! :D

    • For race cars, this is one part where I find having the roll cage bar having gone through a hole in the floor better than the build it up on a ledge inside... The Merc I help on, the main hoop ends are marked on the car, and the jack is marked... Jack goes under a few inches and lifts one whole side of the car up... Removes that fight for long slim jacks for race car duties!   My biggest issue for the daily drivers I work on, is my jacks don't go high enough. The jacks start out on a few blocks, jack it up, then start a second jack under it on more blocks, and then I can get an axle stand under it. My axle stands are presently in use, and are nearly fully extended. The car is sitting with barely more than a cm of clearance to get the wheel off the studs! Sarah's Kluger is the same, as it has an ungodly amount of droop available in the suspension and a distinct lack of good jacking points!
    • Happy? Yep, my to do list is getting shorter and shorter. Either this light approaching is the end of the tunnel, or I'm about to be hit by a train... Ha ha ha   Also, Duncan isn't that far out of town that you need to make a multi day drive out of it. 😛
    • Sorry I meant that we are building the EH for a client.
    • LOL, when one "money pit" is never enough Noice, and excellent work mate
    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
