chances are you are running lean at the moment. there is no need for a set of gtr injectors till you are running 190 rwkw. but at 160rwkw your standard fuel pump is struggling and should be replaced.

if you are not going to run anymore boost than what you are already running then you will get little or no performance gain from injectors.

but you should get a fuel pump for safety.

I have the same mods (NO FMIC though) and my car makes 165rwkw @ 0.7Bar.

Yet i have a fuel pump and also a chipped ECU.

My suggestion would be to get the fuel pump also as they help more than most think.

I'd say you'd be looking at 180 -190 rwkw with a tune and pump. My chip gave me 11rwkw!!!

how much power can u get from a high flowed turbo on an Rb20 then?? i wanna get to around 240rwkw....what would i have to do to get me there without replacing the turbo again... i thought if you got adjuctable cam gears and a fuel system upgrade you can reach this goal pretty easy

I have a GTR fuel pump in an R32 GTST, it sorta bolts straight in. It is bigger in diameter so you have to modify the rubber bottom mount, plus I fitted a stainless screw clamp around it and the bracket just to be sure. :rofl:

Cheers for that SK! Sound easier than fitting an aftermarket job.

I assume the 32 & 33 GTR pumps would externally identical. For $100-$150 would it be a worth while upgrade for someone chasing less than 180rwkw?

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.

      This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).

      I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.

      You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?

      Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
