After installing my FMIC myself (cut hand with 5' grinder and punched myself in the eye with a socket wrench) I had it dyno tuned by Hardcore and running 14 psi it made 284.9 hp. I'm really happy with that as it is my daily driver but my BOV is really noisy now and I am considering going back to factory.

Thats 212.5kw for those that are wondering.

What quarter time do youz estimate for that?

:D

Sweeeet Terry!! Post up some pics I wanna see that front bar with the intercooler in. Don't you like the BOV? Is it plumb back?

It is a Monza (HKS ripoff copy) I used to like it but is really loud now with the extra boost. If you want it I will swap your factory pipe for mine plus some $$.

good stuff..

If u want, when i come to pick up those tyres this weekend, I can bring on the Blitz I have, and you can stick that on for a quick try if it has the same flange - just to try a different one (oh, and I want to hear how it sounds myself before i do my cooler :))

I've got a spare R33 crossover and BOV too.. are you using that stock boost solenoid still (or do you have an EBC) ? Maybe we can do a swap??

Predator - Turbosmart manual boost controller and I am running a Microtech MT12

Yeah that would be good bring up the stock as I have just blocked my standard BOV off

Nexus9 - Was thinking of upgrading fuel pump. Is that what you mean?

Nice job on the front bar mate!

Nah it's ok about the BOV thanks I have a Blitz Super Sound which I really like. Try one if you don't like yours, the sound isn't TOOO loud I think. I was alongside a 180 today that had a VERY loud atmo and I think it would have been too loud for my taste. Course I'm only running standard boost too...after I get a new ebc and fmic mine might be too loud too :)

Too loud BOV feels kinda embarassing to me

    • Bah! I can't see the point in custom number plates at all. I went to the rego office, fished through a box of "premium" plates (the ones that had the "not as tall" option for the front plate) and picked the one that had a 32 in it. That's the limit of the effort and cost I will put into number plates. The only plate that I'd consider paying for would be 2332, but that's not possible here because it already exists from probably 90 years ago, and it would cost a fortune to obtain it, if it were available.
    • After chasing my tail with LS results..... and cheaper than a turbo swap... How confident are you that the dyno is accurate relative to other results? How fast is the car - What MPH does it actually run? Is this similar to what people running this power would expect?
    • Hi mate I am having an identical issue with my 98 R34 GTT. The engie suddenly cuts out under load at about 3-4k, black smoke out exhaust. Almost feels like traction control kicking in. No CEL but still going to check codes later today. Car was sitting in the shed for about 5 months before hand and only idled a few times, took her out with about 1/4 tank, filled up and thats when the issues started happening.  Threw on a spare set of coils/harness and checked plugs which was no help. Recently had fuel pump/filter changed so surely thats not the issue unless condensation in fuel, I just havent had the time to drain it It's running a hi flow turbo, bosch 1000cc injectors, walbro 450L, Z32, Nistune etc... All about 2000km old.
    • I always wonder where the obsession with legal/illegal spacing on number plates in the UK comes from. Because it comes up in comments in every UK-based video I see on youtube. From my point of view all of your plates look a bit odd. Just because there are no markings whatsoever. In Australia we have the state that has to be on it. In Europe you get stamps and state logos. Yours look a bit like a throwaway draft that people then stuck with. And attached with blu tack so that it falls off at the slightest disturbance. Not trying to hate, but it's interesting how things are done in different countries. Do you have to follow a lettering convention when choosing a custom plate?
    • Hybrid sounds like a supercharger... It's half a turbo, with a belt to drive it! Oh wait, they're just called super chargers...
