R33 what power?

Hey guys,

Just wondering what power I'd be looking at with the following mods on my r33 s1;

3.5" turbo back, highflow turbo (hypergear, G3 with high pressure actuator), splitfires, 550cc injectors, z32 afm, r32 ecu nistune, fmic, blitz pod, walbro 255 

Any rough guesses from previous experiences or if you know roughly in kw?

 

thanks guys

250 - 270 sounds about right on P98, depending on how happy the dyno is that day. Your injectors will stop you going to E85, but if you upgraded them & tuned for E85 you would be looking around 300. Intake piping & cat may cause issues at that power level as well.

Cat is de-cat (hollow) 3.5" and Intake piping what do you mean? Plenum?

No, the rubber pipe from the AFM to the turbo - if you still have the stock one it will suck closed at the boost level you need to get over 250RWKW.

Ok will change that too. I'm only going safe tune so roughly 17-20

I have literally the same mods aside from the 550s (I have 740s) and I got 230rwkw @ 14psi - I would have gone higher but at the time I had a shitty actuator (which is now replaced). 

Your mods will net you 250rwkw-ish as stated but yes, replace the stock intake pipe for a solid one. 

Im going E85 in the next few months and all I need is a 460 pump upgrade, flex sensor, fpr for peace of mind and a tune and I should be in the 300 club :3_grin:

Best bang for your buck way to get to 300rwkw imo. I wish i looked more into going E85 flex before i got a power fc.

    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
