Nice curve, 216rwkw with 10psi?  what turbo are your running?  looks like there is more to be had with boost controller - your boost is dropping from 12 psi.  Also, why was the run stopped at 6500rpm?

Dont know if ya noticed, but the power is rapidly dropping off. I dont see the point in winding it out just for the hell of it. Not as though it was magically going to take off again!

steve, my turbo is standard!! yeah the boost does drop and maybe with a ebc i might get more power, not sure what do you think Lumpy ?

i agrea with Lumpy, why push any harder than 6500rpm if its not going to make much difference..... im really happy with the power the boys achieved

P.s i believe my a/f meter is maxed out now anyway

Kym, that was run in full shootout as per all our dyno runs.

We tune them first and then look at the final number, not work to get an artificially high number. :rofl:

That is absolutely the highest *stock* type R33 we have had on here by about 25rwhp. had us scratching our heads and what is weirder is that the stock injectors are only about 80-85% duty cycle and it's running stock fuel pressure.

All our findings in the past have said that is not possible on stock type management , ie. not Wolf .(That is not an attack at Wolf btw . )

Cheers

Ken

Yeah, that's right Paully - wasn't yours running about 15psi back then to get such a high figure? I'm pretty sure Brett was running about 14psi for his 284rwhp run (Brett, if I'm wrong correct me here)

You're right Ken, this is ridiculously high for 10psi boost :rofl:

'grats guys :cheers:

Good to see another person getting great results out of their stock turbo :)

I had a quick dig around and found one of my dyno results.... this one was only 299... but I have another one that was 302 but I dont have that one handy :)

Back when I ran that 284rwhp I was running around 14psi ... then I added the SAFCII and with a bit of tweaking we got it just over the 300rwhp mark :P ... I think the boost is down around the 12psi mark these days with that tune though as we were starting to get pinging if it went any higher...

The only mods my car has is the following in the way of performance mods...

Turbo Back HKS exhaust

HKS Air Pod

HKS Type S Intercooler

Apexi AVC-R Boost Control

Apexi SAFCII Air/Fuel Management

Heavy Duty Clutch

I am overdue for a service so I will be going to go see ken and lumpy in the near future ( probably in a few weeks time ) I will be looking for the regular change my oils and retune on the dyno to get things running smoothly (even though my car is still running great :) ) so it should be interesting to see the results there...

P.S Everyone said my turbo would fall apart in no time at all, and that was over 12 months ago and its still going strong :D

I'm not Ken, but no chance with stock rb20 turbo. rb25det turbo may get you around 250rwhp? an rb25det with a stock turbo will usually make max 270ish rwhp anyway

I've gone to 280 on an RB20 with nothing more than the usual cooler/fuel pump/late rb25 turbo/15psi and LUMPYROM on 3 cars now. There's more there to have, but realistically, a set of adjustable cam sprockets and bigger injectors need to go in for longer term reliability and more power.

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
