Freebaggin,

 

What specs A/Rs is your turbo, and what  motor?

It's all above.

Joel,

No split dump.

I'm much more confident it will make 300+ with more boost and cams (I'm just not going to try for a while as it has stock pistons and I drive it every day).

Tim has has very little to do with my setup for some time now and is probably pretty unfamiliar with what turbo he actually got me. I only run a bit over 17psi and get 280rwkW, plenty more to come. Look at Whatsisname's power with the boost increase from 14 to 23?? psi, 250 to 300 (OK, 299.1 or something), give or take some other bits and pieces, but not a huge amount.

YEah sorry Clint, but it along the same lines as your thread tittle. But please tell us to piss off whenever you want :D

Freebaggin,

 

What is the .63 housing off? VL???

What engine is your turbo on?

Not 100% sure what exh housing. 2.5L, full boost by 3400rpm, power drop off on dyno above 7000, but on the road still worth revving to 7300rpm, so 4000rpm odd rev range is good for me.

I have an RB25DET

I am running a 56 Trim T3/T04E (Flows 65 lbs/min). It's got a .60 compressor housing, .63 AR exhaust housing, and a stage IV 76 Trim exhaust wheel. It's got a standerd Bushing center housing. Runing Stock exhaust manifold with an adaptor box for the 38 MM external wastegate. I don't see boost till 3K (5 PSI) and full boost comes on at 4200 in 3rd gear. It comes on really strong all the power at once! I am only running 10 PSI and still running the stock RB25 SMIC intercooler.

Once My PFC and Q45 MAF comes I am going to fit my FMIC on and run more boost till the injectors are maxed out.

I guess a Ball bearing Turbo will make boost 500+ RPM's sooner. Must be nice.

How about an adjustable cam gear? How much would that help?

Clint, if your having troublechoosing a turbo, go see Shaun down at BoostWorx. Im sure he could recommend something, based on what you want from your setup. He always listens to what you have to say. Great guy :D

If you want his number or address send me a pm. :)

I agree Darren. Clint, give Shaun a call and see what he thinks.

Had a quick peek under your bonnet on Sunday Darren, that motor is a total 'sleeper', the engine bay looks stock as :)

I had a peep under Clints bonnet over the weekend - will be a absolute weapon

I reckon Freebaggin is on the right track with the turbo selection, if anyone can come up with a turbo to suit your applicaztion on paper, he can, as he put ALOT of time into selecting his and graphing almost every available option to suit RB25

Can't wait to see it in action, cheers for letting me use the hiost mate, thanks heaps

Chris

0.82 a/r rear on the rb25 might bring boost on 2 early.

I got 0.87 a/r rear and 0.70 a/r comp garrett on internally stock rb25 and it hits 1 bar by 4000rpm and can still torch the tyres in 2nd and 3rd when running 1.4 bar when boost comes on and sometime when running 1 bar even. With cams, headwork etc i wouldnt go 0.82 coz you will just have a tyre frying car which can never put the power down to the ground on normal street tyres.

    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.
