Are you 100% sure that z32 result wasn't gtx2860s?

Anyway you seem to be possibly missing his point about using a Japanese car that has been sold in both markets then getting tuned with a stockish setup to compare general dyno numbers

Im 110% sure because i know what shop built it and the owner too. He has gtx2863s now making 565rwkw.

Based on Injector Dynamics own data, the nominal flow rate of their ID1000 is 1015cc at a base pressure of 43.5psi. The car in question, based on the data provided by the owner and tuner is running 58psi base pressure. This is just shy of a nominal flow rate of 1180cc. Add 25psi boost, and as previously stated, we are looking at 83psi peak fuel pressure. According to Injector Dynamics that is a touch under a nominal flow rate of 1390cc. At 83psi the injectors are safely within the ID1000 maximum fuel pressure rating.

I assume the fuel system consists of appropriately rated dual feed lines and return fuel line, to go with the twin Walbro 400hp E85 pumps and preferably a twin-entry rail. All assisting the set-up to reach the nominal rating.

Using this data and running it through some very rough E85 specific injector calculations (1390cc x 6 = 8340cc / 11 = 758hp) we can see that ID1000 injectors are capable of supporting approximately 750hp in this specific example.

That's 750 at the flywheel, does this car have such an awesome drive train that it is capable of almost zero loss?

Also the turbos are rated at 700hp at the fly wheel and has managed to surpass that at the wheels, but then again we are talking about American pony power and not Australian horse power

That's now how injector pressure works...

if the fuel pump is supplying 83psi, and the boost pressure is 25psi, the pressure across the injector is 58 psi, so the flow rate will be the 1180cc pressure you mentioned. Which isn't enough fuel to flow the quoted power figure, etc.

Of course it is 750hp at the engine. I thought that was obvious.

As for the rest of the debate, I'm not weighing in. I am merely pointing out the capability of a set of 6 ID1000 injectors.

Looks like back to basics for me then. I assumed (incorrectly it would seem) that base pressure is set on the regulator. In this case 58psi. Then assuming a 1:1 rising rate regulator each pound of boost will equal 1 pound of additional fuel pressure. At 25psi boost the fuel pressure at the rail, and therefore the injector, is 83psi.

Running the numbers through a range of online injector calculators, 6 x 1000cc at a base pressure of 58psi is more than enough to support 750hp with duty cycle to spare (90%). Real world examples support this. There are always exceptions but I suggest there are other restrictions in those cases.

Right, got it. A 1:1 regulator is there to maintain the base pressure.

Despite my misunderstand, at the end of the day, running the data through a range of online injector calculators (58psi base press, 6 x 1000cc, E85 etc.) where my misunderstand has no bearing, each case results in the same outcome. ID1000 injectors will support 750hp - possibly more given I worked off 90% duty cycle vs the 97% reported in this particular application.

Seems abit on the high rating - is that running the SAE correction method or what?

If you running the American version then I have seen dynos add an extra 50kw on a hot day as it tries to factor in heat to the air density.

Mine ran 384KW on jap/aus/nz conversion and we switched to American and I gained 18kw to 402....so I broke 400 haha.

Imagine on E85 if I was pushing 460-470 a jump of 50 kw would easily be seen on the same day as me.

Another thing to point out guys, turbos are not rated in crank hp or rear wheel hp. Turbos are rated to how much air they move, so a 35lb/min compressor will get a "350HP" rating not taking into account if the turbine side can support it or not.

^but if you cut 2x sets of holes on your manifolds and weld up external gates then you resolve that choking issue :)

Still doesn't stop twins being gaids.

2 gates on low mounts?

Whata waste of time, better off using one gate and one turbo.

better results half the money.

Yeah dur! Lol

I've been saying twins are gay since 2008. Piggaz can back me up on this!

    • Next, remove the upper and lower radiator hoses, both are held with a spring clamp. While you are under there, tackle the Auto Trans cooler lines.  Again both are held on with spring clamps, and as mentioned above you should cap them on the radiator side with an 8mm cap, and on the car side loop them with a length of 8mm pipe - this will stop you losing a dangerous amount of AT fluid during the rest of the job If you've been meaning to add a sender for AT trans temp, this is a great time to do it; put a sender fitting into the passenger side line as that is the inlet to the cooler/radiator.
    • Next you need to remove the intake duct (as with pretty much every job on these cars), it is a series of clips you gently remove with a flat bladed screwdriver. They do get brittle with time and can break, and I have not found a decent quality aftermarket one that fits (they are all too soft or flimsy and don't last either) but the nissan ones are a couple of bucks each (ouch).  Once the clips are off (either 8 or 10, I didn't check) you lift the intake duct out and will see the reservoirs Undo the line into the radiator side cap (some bent needle nosed piers are awesome for spring clamps) and then remove the 4x 10m nuts that hold both in place.  I didn't get these pics, but remove the line under the radiator reservoir (spring clamp again) then remove that reservoir. Then you can get at the intake reservoir, same thing, spring clamp underneath then remove it. BTW This is a great time to put in a larger (+70%) combined reservoir that AMS makes..... https://www.amsperformance.com/product/q50-q60-red-alpha-coolant-expansion-tank/ They also make an Infiniti branded and part# version if that is your thing
    • To drain the Intake Heat Exchanger, there is a crappy drain plug in front of the driver's side front tyre: You should use the largest headed phillips screwdriver you had, and in my case I needed vice grips on the hose above as the plug was tight (tighter than it needed to be, since it has an o-ring seal).  After you have a tray down and open the drain, open the intake heat exchanger reservoir cap (drivers side one) and you should get a couple of litres of coolant To get to the radiator, you need to remove the plastic engine undertray. It is held on with a series of 10mm headed bolts and some clips. For the radiator, there is another type of crappy drain (kind of like a plastic banjo bolt) and you should attach a length of hose to direct the stream of coolant per this pic (otherwise the coolant hits the rad support and goes everywhere). The drain is on the rear of the radiator on the driver's side and a bit hard to find. Put a big tray or bucket down (5l won't be enough) and slowly unscrew the fitting by hand. You only want to remove it far enough for coolant to flow, it you unscrew it right out the whole fitting and direction pipe will come off and you will get a coolant bath (yum!). Undo the radiator reservoir cap and it should empty about 8l
    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You also need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator so you will need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. 2 other tools that really help dealing with coolant lines and spring clamps are Bent Needle Nose pliers Hose pliers Between them they will reduce the frustration (and injury) potential by about 1000% Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
