first gear (obviously)

Im going to get a decent boost controller and have a proper play around

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

What sort of boost controller are you using now?

[Tommyk]

I am using the jaycar one with the factory solenoid.

Ive had a play around with it, and it seems to be working better now. In relation to boost, I get full boost at something like 6 grand in 2nd

In relation 4th gear, I think i hit full boost 130/140 km/hr - wasnt watching the tachometer

[Tommyk]

I cant be 100% sure, but at about 80km/hr or so, which im guessing is about 5500rpm in 2nd, i get about 1.2kg of boost

[TTT]

sorry mate, but that sounds horrible to drive.

[Tommyk]

Not really ?

I would have to take you for a spin to make you understand

[Tommyk]

Not sure ?

I'll take it for a spin today and find out

Had absolutely no idea what i was doing, where i was going, etc.

Hehe .... it's a bit like that the first time out isn't it !

Well done on your first trip anyhow ... next time you won't have as many nerves as you're sitting on the line about to launch, thinking of all the people watching you!

[Morgs]

Tommy, good to see someone out there having a go after pulling some dyno figures for once, hats off to you

[Tommyk]

Cheers guys

Okay, in answer to your question, kabab, I think its something like 0.8 bar at 4000 rpm in 3rd

Forgot to check 3000 rpm in 3rd, but im guessing it would be around the 0.3 bar mark ?

I'm runnin GARRETT GT2560R's, also known as the GT2860R's. These are Garrett replacements to the Nissan R34 N1 turbos. They are 'apparently' rated at 320hp. There are no flow maps on the garrett website, 'yet'

Jim is a pretty good tuner. The a/f ratio is so damn straight, its almost unbelievable

Just for comparisons sake GT-SS's make about 0.8bar at 3,000rpm

[Tommyk]

Big difference in spool times there.

Do you have a built engine kabab?

The gt-ss are rated at 280hp arent they? While these are 320 hp. That would make a fair bit of difference. But hell, I can understand how responsive the SS's must be

Hks gtss's are rated @ 320ps just check here .

I dont know about .8 bar at 3000 on a stock engine but i get full boost at 3800 in 5th gear in my stock engine .

They dont have the top end that my old N1's had though .

[Jimbo2000]

awesome news tommy

You can keep your stock afms with the gtss's Kris unless you want to run huge boost ( above 1.2 bar ) .

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I gotta say, it's a bit of a waste to use GT-SS's if you're only going to run 1.2 bar. They won't make much more than stock turbos at that boost level.

But Stock turbos will die after not too long at 1.2 bar and will take the engine with them...
