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

hmmmm maybe i should get new number plates huh what do ya think maybe "freek" hehhehehehe

mrgtst.....what does your car drive like with a power curve like that... looks like it would be a handful

Ps congrads on your hp too

Pie .... yeah this is by far the best month ive ever had !!!! first the house then getting married now this hehehhehehe

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.

    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.  
    • For race cars, this is one part where I find having the roll cage bar having gone through a hole in the floor better than the build it up on a ledge inside... The Merc I help on, the main hoop ends are marked on the car, and the jack is marked... Jack goes under a few inches and lifts one whole side of the car up... Removes that fight for long slim jacks for race car duties!   My biggest issue for the daily drivers I work on, is my jacks don't go high enough. The jacks start out on a few blocks, jack it up, then start a second jack under it on more blocks, and then I can get an axle stand under it. My axle stands are presently in use, and are nearly fully extended. The car is sitting with barely more than a cm of clearance to get the wheel off the studs! Sarah's Kluger is the same, as it has an ungodly amount of droop available in the suspension and a distinct lack of good jacking points!
    • Happy? Yep, my to do list is getting shorter and shorter. Either this light approaching is the end of the tunnel, or I'm about to be hit by a train... Ha ha ha   Also, Duncan isn't that far out of town that you need to make a multi day drive out of it. 😛
