I'm only considering it because I've got an exhaust cam wheel, and will be running 15 psi after the tune. I used to run 15psi with the factory ECU, but the PowerFC at the same boost maxes out my injectors and AFM. So I'm running at 11psi until I get it tuned.

Anyway I'll see what the mechanic has to say when I take the car in. At least now I know I have some room to experiment.

I don't see much of an advantage of increasing the red-line to 7500rpm, if your only running 15psi max. by the time your turbo hits 6700 its all ready running out of steam, unless your planning on running a bigger turbo with 20+psi, then it would be worth your while.

Paul, SteveSST - what Cams do you use ? What exhaust ? Mine drops off slightly at about 7000 - but would love it to keep going .

hey brendon met u yesterday im steve...its nice to see u makin good use of the dyno day with up to date references :headspin: :headspin:

i was amazed this was commented earlier with the car ur referring to

Steve SST quoted "This is for those that think that RB25s dont make a shit load of power and high revs on stock cams and heads.Check it out."

so i take it the motor beens untouched :confused:

Pauls motor has a stock head and cams but RB26 rods Arias pistons and a Greddy intake manifold and an R32 GTR intercooler GT30 turbo and Plugin Wolf and GTR injectors.

Pauls car has 22psi thru the mid range bit is turned down to 18psi thru the top as the fuel pump was to small to feed the top end.It now has an 044 pump and cams on the way.

The GT30 should not get to 500rwhp but we will try and upgrade if it can't.

is it sydney or are we just suckers.......... gtr injectors are rated in the 400cc's i think...wouldnt they max out??? at that sort of power... cause most of the tuners in sydney reckon they do and reccomend something big? i thought the motor had stock rb25 rods...or are u refering to a different car in regards to rb25 rod limits :(

My 550cc sards are at 90% (no FP reg). I have very similar setup to Paul. HKS3040, HKS manifold, Arias Pistons, Stronger rods, Ported head, 256/9 Tomei cams, Trust/Greddy plenum, Q45 Thtl Bdy, Kings bearings, Redline Oil, oil cooler, Bosche pump, Big Bar & Plate cooler, 90 mm exhaust, Power FC, 21 PSI e-boost (more boost doesn't make a difference). Maybe I have hit the limit for the compressor ?

Pauls car went thru a big bash session last year when it went 411rwhp on RB25 injectors with big pump and ajustable reg but went on and proved its power at other dyno comps and a dyno run supervised by dyno dynamics.We often run GTR injectors to 450+rwhp with plug in Wolfs.

Pauls car needs to come down to Melbourne or Sydney and try pull those numbers i recon.

What elevation above sea level is ur factory?? :D

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • 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
