This is all too easy, and way too much fun these days.

Just got back from Winton Raceway, only did two sessions so about 10 laps...but at 18psi and 8,000rpm rev limit (shifting around 7,000-7,5000rpm) the engine ran well:)

Do have a problme though, my piping has a boost leak somehwere that meant i wasnt able to continue after the second session:(

  • 4 weeks later...

I had to dig up this old post........gotta love it.

This is what was pushed out of my rb20det.....with 2530 and rest to support 200rwkw. It isnt quite what roy has, i wish. ;)

Could someone also tell me how to convert kph to rpm on the graph....i saw a post once explaining the formula.....but i cant find it. :)

Hey, that looks nice and punchy, :)

What bosot is it running? Im off to Eastern Creek today so should have a tale to tll tonight:)

Cool, email me at [email protected] and ill send over a spreadsheet, either that or tell me the tyre you are running and brand, as you need th etyre circumference to work it out...its pretty easy to do:)

sure no worries

turbo = 2530

booost = spikes to 18 then tapers off to 16psi

ecu = power fc

gtr pump

gtr injectors

cam gears

front mount cooler

blitz ebc

i dont like running that much boost on the road.

i wish i could have full boost by 3500rpm....make it even better.....maybe i'm asking too much :rofl:

u mind if i ask who tuned your car... ill be putting in pfc pretty soon looking for a tuner for my 32

going by the dyno sheet, Croydon Racing Developments..... :P

Good power, seems a bit like mine up top, drops boost and power just after 6000, although mine drops of a bit more than that

Looking at that result i say the 2530 has to be one of the best bolt on options with the RB20, perhaps the 2535 will make a bit more power...but who knows for sure.

One thing that seems evident is that a good manifold and a good external wastegate seems to help the things make power. My turbo seems line ball with the 2530 down low but makes a bit more up top...but you have to question the value, the wastegate and manifold alone are worth what the 2530 goes for...then you have to buy the turbo and plenty more in the way of lines and piping:( So is the extra 15-20rwkws worth the expense???? If i want to run 20psi and make the power then its handy but 18psi day to day is enough for the dry

The 2530 seems to be the go, but interesting that boost even falls over at high revs on the RB20:confused:

What brand / size exhaust and cat are you running?

Oh on another note on my old girl, the only drama after 6 x 20min sessions in the wet at Eastern Creek was a tired alternator about 15mins into the last session, where voltage dropped to the point where i got a misfire and steering went heavy. Another alternator in and she is good to go:)

So that just about 120min of spinning around on a wet track with either 12 or 15psi, i cant remember what the low boost setting is...lol i need to get my boost gauge working....and not a drama:)

The catch can is still empty with only a bit of mist on the hose walls :D

Looking at the latest dyno sheet for mine, I have approx 600rpm more lag than the 2530 (running 1bar) but power doesnt drop of untill around 7000rpm. Thats with std manifold modded to accept the external gate. Waiting on a stiffer gate spring so we can wind up the boost and give it a proper tune (hopefully the stiffer spring and tuning will reduce the lag slightly).

    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
    • Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?
    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
