So my guess is its probaly in the centre resonator bit or it doesnt actually go gay at all and my cooler is restriction

Have a good look just before/after resonators/mufflers. Usually it's given away by a small reduction in the outside pipe diameter, it drops down just a bit.

Not always the case but the vast majority of (quiet) Jap exhausts I've seen have it done this way if you cannot see the obvious one from the rear end.

Pretty easy to confirm restriction on dyno anyway, just drop the exhaust post-dump, see what happens

Yea rear cannons deffiently staraight through.Theres no drop in the pipe size but could still have some thing in the centre res.Im just going to leave it and find a 3.5-4" exhaust for it for events and put the blitz back on for the st.

Tune with track exhaust and let it be restricted on the st

I wish this had been discussed a couple of months ago. I recently bought a Kakimoto Hyper Full Mega N1, supposedly 90mm throughout. Upon inspection when it arrived, it was stepped down going into the centre muffler, yet maintained the 90mm external dimensions. Fitted the exhaust anyway and even without dyno results, I can tell you that performance has been choked up. The turbos aren't spooling as quickly and I'm not nearly making as much power. Very disappointing

It is verry dissapointing a big well made jap exhaust has these restrictions i noticed mine with the fact i made 350 on 98 changed to e85 and changed exhaust and still made 350 up top

Dyno shows this fingers crossed it was the change of exhaust that caused it

Thats unfortunate - Could you possibly go back and get them to drop the exhaust then rerun on the dyno to see if thats the restriction?

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must me missing something?

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.
