Aight - well I just gave you one :)

With that kind of turbo setup surely you'd want all the usual stuff?

  • Exhaust
  • FMIC
  • Fuel Pump
  • Injectors
  • AFM
  • ECU

Can you be more specific? Eg. Injectors 500cc? Lol emoji111.png

Mate, there are literally 1000's of variables when you're talking about all of those items. Just use the search bar for each one, you'll find very extensive threads covering each one.

Here's some arbitrary items (with no thought to your power goals or budget):

  • Exhaust - Custom made, 3in TBE, high flow cat
  • FMIC - Plazmaman Core, Piping kit
  • Fuel Pump - Walbro 460LPH (buy along with a e85 flex sensor, Turbosmart FPR)
  • Injectors - 1000cc Xspurt
  • AFM - Z32 or R35
  • ECU - Link, Haltech, take your pick

+ boost controller (if your ecu doesnt have one)

 

+ Exhaust includes new downpipe and possibly whole New exhaust

 

+ New intercooler piping

 

+ fuel pump wiring

 

+tune

 

+ New turbo feed/return limes

 

+ clutch

 

+possibly New exhaust manifold studs (mine snapped when I removed the OEM manifold from s1 rb25det).

 

+Depending on boost/ power levels you plan to run possibly New head gasket and head bolts/studs. Maybe even forged internals depending on your budget/engine condition/how much you want to push it.

 

And ofcourse good manifold and wg. Lots of small things (like manifold studs etc) that might need changing can add quite a lot to the cost

 

 

 

 

 

I was looking at this turbo kit from cxracing. Let me know what you guys think https://www.cxracing.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=92_629_1613&product_id=2824


It's cheap Chinese crap, turbo is journal bearing which will make it extra extra laggy in that size. If they're the quality of components you're going to use, you may want to rethink your plan. There's plenty of information on sau on how to build and not build your car. I suggest you start researching. Hypergear is a popular turbo supplier for rb engines. Good luck.

What sort of power figure are you chasing for? Been an OP6, we can just high flow your stock turbo that can support up to 290rwkws on pump fuel.

In terms of engine supporting mods. This is what I've done to my R34 that have made decent power:

- Adaptronic ECU
- 1000CC ID injectors
- 3 inches turbo back exhaust
- Walbro 470L/H Fuel pump
- 3 inches induction pipe
- Split fire coil packs
- PWR 600x300x81mm intercooler

I understand trying to achieve certain sounds, but I hope you're not basing your entire build around it lol. Get the parts you need for desired power, then work out what kind of exhaust system you'd use. Youtube and talking to people on this forum would help with those decisions.

Regarding Hypergear, I recently bought one of their 21U high flows (smaller than OP6) and I've got 240ish rwkw (320hp to the wheels) and that's on pump fuel and basic mods. I highly recommend them and they've got a looooooong history in this community.

Even if you don't go with Hypergear, don't go with that chinese crappy turbo, you'll regret it.

    • I'm an idiot, my intercooler is rated for 1000hp. I had clicked on the wrong product. Knowing the delta P would be nice, but I'm doubtful I'll do it. Now as for an EMAP, that would be great and I'll get around to it eventually but from my findings in my last post, I'm considering a turbo swap now. 
    • You sir, big win tonight. Precision never supplied compressor maps in the past and Idk when they started, but it seems they only offer for a few of the older gen2's which is exactly what I have. I punched in some numbers and seem to have gone with the wrong turbo. 600-700whp isn't in the most efficient area and is close to the choke line. 800whp is well off the map. Punching the numbers into a 68mm gen2 turbo map is bang on in the center. Here I was thinking going smaller would shift the power band down, but in reality it would just make it so much worst due to my rev limit. I would have never thought. 
    • Increasing overlap will bring the torque down earlier (and make your idle sound sick lol). Worth a shot (if you dyno time) to experience a bit (providing you are confident your valves won't kiss your pistons). Is to just take off 5 degrees across the boosted area of the map, and then retard the exhaust cam let's say, 3 degrees at a time and then overlay all the runs with VCT on all the way and VCT off as soon as you make positive pressure. Ideally you would have a total of 6x overlays to looks at 0 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve 0 exhaust & VCT on all the way -5 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -5 exhaust & VCT on all the way -10 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -10 exhaust & VCT on all the way Just leave your O2 wideband closed loop on for all of the boost area & RPM, and hopefully there isn't too much fuel correction needed and the Haltech is fast enough to compensate (I do this, then apply the correction to the main table). Getting that overlay data should give you a good indication of what to aim for.
    • So, my main limitation here is that the car does not have an oil pressure sensor by default, just a switch. As part of my tune I bought an oil pressure sensor upgrade so I now have access to oil pressure levels and logging rather than just the boolean behaviour of the switch but this means I need to use the tuning app to display this value. So, this rules out using any other app on the iPad. The app will also flash when pressure drops which is a nice feature. I have replaced the centre screen with an Android one, which is awesome for Android Auto, but I think it might be too far away and out of my line of sight. I might add some gauges to it this weekend and just see. I guess if its just temp and oil pressure I can make them massive! 🤣  
    • This is what the look like normally. Except we only got the 2 doors locally
