Turbo wizards help

Hey guys , so my r32 came with a Rb20det with a hks cast iron manifold and this turbo , I try to find out info on it like what's the max psi I can run safely before she blows lol but I can't find anything . Basically I just want to know how good this turbo is ? I'm shooting for 400ish hp and what to know if this turbo is good enough , 

 

i swapped out my Rb20det for a rb25det neo but I kept my turbo setup 

hks cast iron manifold 

tb34 60. Turbo  

3 inch down pipe and exhaust 

external waste gate currently at 10psi 

stock neo rb injectors 

front mount intercooler 

oil cooler 

stage 3 clutch clutch masters 

255 walbro fuel pump .

also next question can I put up my boost at 15 psi safely with the setup that I have ??

Best way to find max boost is to crank it up until it pops, then back it off 2 psi.

 

Personally I wouldn't waste my time woth that turbo.

Turbo makes the power, plenty of excellent options around.

400hp is not a modest goal.  There is plenty of information in here on how to achieve it but start by reading some of the RB25 turbo upgrade posts:

    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
    • You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
