Which bolt on turbo will i need to make a

healthy250rwkw "BUT" with the most torque down low,

i figure i should run the more boost like 1.1bar to make it

rather than go external wich requires less psi but more

lag.

MY REASON: so on std boost my wife wont shit herself when it come on!!!

any help boys would be a appreciated

i think he has a gtr, which means that gtrs's would be laggy and produce lots more than 250 when they do come on boost.

if it is for a gtr, try gtss's 2530's or N1s, already they wont have much low down power(less than 4 grand) but go any bigger ie gtrs's and you wont have much power low down at all.

best bet for stockish low end would be hiflo the stock turbos and run more boost.

READ the post title "RB25 wnt 250rwkw WICH TURBO??" :slap:

:cheers:

GTRS is your best bet, you'll never do it with a 2530. 2835proS will do it easily at only around 1bar, torque down low wont be quite as good as the GTRS, but you'll have plenty of scope for more power. You might say 250rwkw is more than enough right now, but when you get it, you'll want 260. :cheers: Then 270. Then you'll be looking at cams and more boost for the magic 300!

Stock fuel system isn't good for anymore than 250rwkw (unless you're from perth :cheers: )

2 mates with gtsts run 2535's and both make around 235 nonshootout mode... or 250-255 in shootout mode... very responsive and very quick.

You think with Fuel pressure regulator and a good fuel pump the stock fuel system would be able to support 250rwKw? (and I'm from perth ehhehe :headspin: )

Im about to try a 2535 but dont have injectors at the moment, hope it'll get 250kw

will have results by end of month

well yeah if its rb25 then check out a hks2540 theyre a good well known mismatched turbo and is extra laggy but will flow more than 2530 in top end

or for around $2k get a gt30 with stock parts it should be laggy

but hang on a second, you said its for an rb25det, so do you mean

a) skyline gts with rb25det conversion

B) skyline gtst with stocker rb25det

not that it really matters

do you want

a) a mid power turbo that will hit 250rwkw

B) a mid/high power turbo with lots of lag and get 250 or a bit more

cos you've said you dont want low down torque as your wife will shit herself yet your looking at 2530, t51z etc which will have fairly good low down response (not laggy) and wont flow much top end (not enough for 250rwkw), sounds completely opposite to what you want? if you want laggy and flow enough for 250rwkw then i still stick with

hks 2540 (mismatched wheel/housing = laggy)

gt30 (on stock internals will be midish laggy, not much before 4k)

or speak to gcg in sydney and ask for a laggy turbo combination that will flow enough for 250rwkw on rb25det skyline maybe they can do a custom housing/wheel combo that it extra laggy for you and flow good for the same power level.

its for a gtS and the 2530 sounds torkie but if it blows i cant rebuild it thats y i like

trust turbos is there a greddy turbo thats like 2530 maybe T517Z or T518Z has  

anyone had one of these on the old gts??   :P  :D

If I mis-read your post I apologise, but are you talking about hanging an aftermarket turbo off the side of a standard RB25DE. If this is the case I highly recommend against it, as to achieve that power you will need to lower the compression and change the internals. These turbos are fine on a std RB25DET but not on a std RB25DE.

Within the month you will be looking at a total rebuild, if not a new block if it decides to "kick a leg out of bed".

Sorry boyz i meant GTST not gts. :headspin:

i dont think 250 rwkw with response/torque is a

contradiction at all its possible i just havnt found tha right

combo yet but i will.

Im not keen to push more than 250 so small bolt ons are

perfect for me. trying to find trust trbos with t3 flange cant find any?? is there any? :P

its rb25t my mistake,

but just so u know high compresion na motors arent a

bad thing with turbos u get a lot more grunt down low u

spin any turbo round 1200rpm faster u just need to tune

ur ecu properly did it twice on a vl and a skyline and i ran

26psi threw the skyline wich i didnt need wiv t3/4 combo

and 2000rpm gave full boost an massive burnout torque.

tru story :P

so you want 250rwkw thats laggy?

well thats easy gt30 stock internals, aftermarket ecu

youll be on the stock injector limit once it cranks past 4000rpm and hits its boost peak

also will need to do the usual bolt on mods exhaust, cai intake, clutch, tyres, airflow meter (not 100% but will help) etc. things like cams, better tune, cai intake will decrease lag and u want more lag so dont do any of those

check out the rb25 turbo upgrade dyno post (search for it) and find the most laggy looking dyno graph. copy their mods and you shold be sweet. i suspect the hks2540 will be the most laggy or gt30 with stock internals, the gt30 is suited for a midly tweaked engine

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
