Boost Levels For A 33 GTS-T???

[**JaR**]

hey guys/girls, just wondering what are the stocker boost levels for a 33 GTS-T???

also what kilowattage would my car be making as it is now??? ( its fairly stock, only minor mods so far.. HKS Pod and Blitz 3" Catback Exhaust ), but when i get me some more money i wanna get an apexi sfac and intercooler and mb up the boost a bit more.

thanks in advance.

7psi i think, and your car should be making about 140is rwkw....

Stock boost for you will be 6psi with boost jumping up to 8psi at 4500rpm (when the solenoid is set to open).

That's exactly what I was running (aftermarket boost guage readings) with just a catback exhaust.

If you want a little more power before 4500rpm there's a thread here somewhere which shows you how to ground the solenoid permanently so it runs the higher setting (8psi) right from the start.

I did this before I got my mods and it made a nice difference

It will handle 10 PSI all day long. Once you have the FMIC installed, can occasionally take it to 12 PSI when you "need" it

What is FMIC????

coolness, thanks for the help. yeah once i get the fmic instealled and the boost up i'll only use it for the drag strip of course....

all good... if your on a budget, get one of those new "ball and spring" type boost controllers. cost ya $30 from ebay. highly recommend them. no spiking, good straight up boost. Put it on 10PSI straight away. Will notice a nice big gain from factory resulting in a lot more low end response. The back of your head starts to discover where the headrest is!

nah no budget, i have my own online business n i live at home still hehe, so i can afford 2 spend as much money on my car as possible..... for now lol

speakin of ebay but, theres sum "import" places that are selling sfac's and avc-r's n such, anyone ever bought an item like that from an ebay seller??? coz from what i know there cheaper than if you buy them from like autobarn or something but i dunno if there dodgy sellers or not, i dont wanna pay $300-500 bucks and not get anything sent to me...

From my experience, most are pretty genwine and reliable. Never have had a problem. As long as they have plenty of positive feedback and auctions, you should be saving yourself heaps

[Omega]

No budget constraints?! niceee.... i would:

FMIC

3" Dump/front

Walbro GSS-341 Fuel Pump (best performing/price)

Nismo adjustable fuel regulator (better than Sard varient)

550 CC Injectors

Z32 AFM or Q45 AFM

Tomei Poncam (or just the camgears)

..and i hear Whiteline's "Pineapples" are top notch

Of course you'll need to dweal into the world of the electronic side of things, to control everything. Power FC will do, pretty much, it all.

You will have yourself a weapon of mass destruction. yay hope I haven't bored you

[**JaR**]

hahaha nah mate, actually thats some superb info, although i might have to only do half that for now, ive only jst got onto my P's lol, and been defected once already for the bov.... i was like.... come on man it just makes noise gheeesh, but i copy pasted your suggestion into a word file n saved it for future reference.

yeah alota ebay sellers are genuine, i am one, thats my online business, but some are dodgy, especially the ones from china. .... " ugh yeah up for auction i have a HKZ Pob filter and a NIZMO short shifter " <<< stay away from people that advertise like that peeps that are'nt in the know.

Check out www.nengun.com instead of ebay.

[Omega]

I have nothing but good things to say about the following sources:

www.greenline.jp/

www.perfectrun.com.au/

Awesome price's, fast shipping.

[**JaR**]

alright i'll check em out. cheers mate.

[paulr33]

buy everything from nengun or people on the forums with good feedback. forget ebay

powerfc $1500 tuned

electronic boost controller $300

fmic $1200 fitted

cold air box and pod kit $450 ish

some good tyres $900 for the rear

gtr fuel pump $250

exhaust $1400

run 12psi should make just under 200rwkw or thereabouts and the tune will fly

youll struggle for traction in first gear past 4grand and it will spin into second

perfectrun's prices are a joke

[Omega]

it does appear nengun's prices are cheaper than perfectruns... always good to know!

my car is running stock boost at 7psi, constant. it doesn't spike or roll of or nothing. am running a 3 inch exhaust and FMIC, but thats it.

strange how it varies from car to car.

Can I ask why you're only boosting 7PSI? I'd be up around the 10-12PSI mark myself with your mods.

[fLipKnot]

I think 12 PSI might be pushing it a little on the stock turbo though. If i am not wrong, 12 PSI is the max from the poor stock turbo...
