Peter.  I want to run it that rich just to have a bit of a buffer zone as i will give it a hard time and just want to make sure its safe. Id rather sacrifice some hp and just make sure it doesnt ping. As with fuel thats the most that pump is gonna give at those afr's. Fabs gtr went about the same hp with a single 044 so im going to use 2 with a surge tank . Cams it is using are HKS 272 272 step 2 10.2 mm lift which isnt huge lift as they go up to 11.8mm on some. . As for target boost pressure this turbo should be in its efficiency at 24-27psi so thats what im heading for. Also lift the limiter from 8k to 9k when it has a fuel system to support it.

Why do you think it is the fuel pump? Have you monitored the fuel pressure on the dyno? If the pressure drops that means the pump is running out of flow capacity. With 13.8 volts via a relay and direct to battery connection the single 044 should have more than enough capacity to handle that sort of power.

:rofl:

ok cool

thats a pretty big buffer but ha each to there own and rich is safe

so by way of a the 800hp turbo at mid 20's psi with high lift cams and spinning it to 9000rpm you must be think around 600rwhp then at a guess.(or did you have a target in mind)

and if your going to spin it pretty hard what oil pump you using out of interest?

pete

sorry to hear about the box

Thanks yeh box is a bummer hopefully new one in by weekend. Im happy where it is at the moment as it feels nice to drive with not much lag and good top end. Im thinking in the mid 20's it may go near 600rwhp but until it does that i cant say what it will do but it is a good sign to be making good power at lowish boost. Its running a JUN oil pump.

I hope you have a large cost-effective supply of gearboxes...you'll need it

simon doesnt learn....

he went through about 8 or so rb20 boxes and still didnt learn

how many gtr boxes have to be killed :uh-huh:

car goes very nicely, was shotgun in it same say as the dyno run... can't wait till more boost and better tune

PLUS A DECENT GEARSET ;)

hey simon nice results :uh-huh:

pitty you sold me the spare gtr gearbox you had haha :)

goodluck and hopefully u can take me for a spin when its sorted to show me some single turbo power (and maybe ill convert mine to single haha)

cheers :D

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
