As Dose said before, if u want to spend cash do it on more value for money stuff.

But if u have the cash this is cool, but it’s designed to sit on top of the RB25 lower shell

90mm throttle body

big throttle bodies don't magically make more power.

You only need to go bigger if you have more boost pre throttle than post throttle when at WOT.

68 or 74mm DBW is more than sufficient for most people.

Would a 74mm be fine for a Neo 25, 98 fueled 300wkw or 68 would be more appropriate?

Well, tell me how I can make around the 500-600hp mark with a T3 top Mount turbo if my Aeroflow 6262 .84 T4 is too big as I was going to build it for 5-600 and flex fuel and stages like boost Lvl 1 - 15 psi boost lvl 2- 20 psi boost lvl 3 27-30 psi for example 

I'm running a greddy style plenum with stock throttle body on my rb30 (rb25 series 2 head) stagea, it is making 400kw through that.

There are plenty of ways to spend money on the car, you don't need to change the intake you have for 600hp

74mm would be good, however you will find you will need to gently ramp in the pedal vs. throttle so it feels smooth and linear (not like those silly carb V8s where you touch the throttle 1mm and the car wants to fry tyres).

This is how mine is dialled in with a 74mm DBW TB, I wanted 68mm but Plazmaman couldn't weld a 68mm flange onto the plenum.

You said you want 373kW to 447kW, you don't need a 62mm turbo to do that, that turbo can spin over 500kW+

Okay I must of got my letters wrong instead of hp  I’d like to make 450-600kw i know it’s quite easy to make it on an RB I already got the turbo for free so it’s brand new the aeroflow 62 .84 T51r mod already done T4 flange can I change it to a t3

 

but please tell me how 

Is there a reason why you want close to 600kW in a R32 GTS-t?

Have you thought about suspension work, subframe changes (from a newer car, offsetting it), diff choice, brakes, gearbox?

There's a high chance you're running a RB20DET gearbox which will not like close to 600kW being sent through it.

Also a 6262 won't get you close to 600kW.

@Dose Pipe Sutututu  thank you so much, understand what u mean and appreciate that info

I think way too many people get caught up in the whole bigger TB for more power, but that's only if it becomes a restriction.

In a FI environment, the TB size is not as sensitive, where as in a NA environment, you find with the throttle at 100% and if the plenum still registers a vacuum, then your TB is undersized and requires to be upgraded.

    • Hi everyone, I've been wrestling with this for a while now and have been trying to find out the cause. For context, the turbos used are Garrett 2860 -5s, the BOV is a BNR32 HKS SSQV IV kit, the car is currently tuned to ~470 whp on 17.5 psi. The car drives normally, pulls well when it doesn't happen, and I can replicate it fairly easily. It does not sound like turbo shuffle or flutter. The engine has only a thousand or so miles and has had this behavior since it was completed. After my engine was built for my R32 GTR, I noticed that the car now sometimes makes an air discharge sound on what appears to be positive boost pressure that sounds really similar to a BOV. I had thought that it was a BOV issue but even when replacing it with a brand new unit, the sound persisted. It seems like it's coming from the passenger side but I may be mistaken. The closest scenario I could find was this post here https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/ started by @yakshii and it sounds very similar. As in, at partial throttle once I reach positive boost I begin to hear the same psh psh psh psh psh sound like air is leaking somewhere when I keep the throttle in the same position. It most commonly happens in 4th gear at around 3-3.5k RPM and 5th gear around 2.5-3k RPM, which seems to coincide with normal positive boost thresholds. It might be similar to what @Austrian GTR mentioned about his own HKS SSQV. Notable difference would be that when he applies more throttle when it happens, it stops. In my scenario if I apply more throttle during this repeated psh psh psh sound, the cadence of the sound gets faster and louder rather than stopping. If I lift off slightly and apply throttle again, it will normally stop and pull without issue. I've checked all rubber couplers to ensure that they are tight, but have not gotten the opportunity to properly do a pressurized boost leak test. If anyone has had similar experiences or thoughts on what might be the cause, I'd be very keen to hear them. I also have a video of it happening from inside the cabin, if that would make it easier to understand: https://youtu.be/2zqZXcx8jbA
    • I'd want at least $40K for mine, but thats easy to say cos I'm not selling anyway.
    • That's incorrect. We have 4 seasons, consisting of pre winter, winter, post winter and a small glimpse of hope! 
    • I spotted a black C34 in Mittagong this morning!
