Just in the process of doing a turbo conversion and have a few Q's...

1) if i install 555cc injectors can i still drive the car with the standard computer or will the computer just go stupid?

2) i have the following parts here and on the way and at home for rb25: hks GT-RS turbo, apexi 555cc injectors, fuel rail, 044 pump, oil catch can, surge tank, power FC, bleed valve (temporary until ebc). I already have a exhaust and dump cooler etc... Can anyone see any thing i will need or any flaws in my setup?

Will make a post in the coming weeks with all the dyno sheets and the rest to show how this turbo works... Thanks...

If it was my car id save my money and not buy the fuel rail, the surge tank, or even the bleed valve. Use the HKS actuator to wind in the boost level you want to run.

I suspect std ECU will crap itself with injectors...the only other things to consider would be perhaps cam gear and the tuner will probably tell you to get a Z32 AFM

i just got a CES split-dump pipe fitted... its a t3 flange so im assuming it will bolt onto the GT-RS perfectly... Also when installing the dump pipe i replaced gaskets on both sides. On the exhaust side i just replaced the gasket and there is now a big gasket leak (you can feel the air rushing out). Am i supposed to use sealer as well as a gasket?

    • So my rb is finally having more problems. 2 issues here but I'm here to just to mainly discuss the rattle noise. The other day when I turned on the car and when I take off or go in reverse, there is a temporary rattle noise but when I cruise, boost, idle it's completely fine no rattle whatsoever. I've also done all the servicing, all the health checks you can think of and it all passes with flying colours.  Also the rattle doesn't increase with rpm, it's only at a very certain rpm (slightly above 1,100rpm). My other car also has the same issue every once in a while. Changed the oil recently, no difference. Even took my oil to a lab and everything was quite good surprisingly. Timing belt changed a while ago to. Had the car on the hoist and can't see anything obvious. Tightened a couple of nuts on the exhaust manifold a couple of months ago. 2 different clips uploaded. One of them was supposed to another issue but I'll save that for another time. Thought I'd see if anyone had this same noise before, it's a bit hard to diagnose while it's intermittent. If I'm not mistaken, I think I had this a while back but can't remember exactly. I was thinking if it's doable I'll get someone to hold the throttle cable at 1,100rpm and hopefully it replicates the sound. rb25det rattle only.mp4 rb25det slow start + rattle.mp4
    • Haha wow, yes they do! Will sort tomorrow.
    • Yeah I’ll know when I take it for a test drive and I’ll double check the turbos as well when I have a look at it again.  Just thought maybe they might have done something in the head cause it looks like they’ve taken off the rocker covers 🤔 Thanks for your info! 
    • As Duncan mentioned it's likely a remapped ECU, like the the one listed in the link I post earlier:  https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/444260/car/444612/2099320/parts.aspx He quoted 444PS with an unopened engine and twin GT2510s @ 1.1bar boost... sounds about right?
