I thought this test may give people an idea of the lag of different turbo upgrades.

TEST

From idol in 3rd gear floor it and take note on what rpm it starts to make boost and what rpm its making full boost. Please include engine mods ect.

Eg - my car

R33 GTST manual

Turbo - stock with r32 actuator

Details - 3 inch turbo back exhaust, SAFC, and hybrid FMIC

Boost starts - 1000rpm

Fullboost – 11psi @ ~3000rpm -

Especially interested in HKS 2530,2535, 2540, GTRS and GCG hiflow

cheers

This has been done at one stage, about 6 months ago.....

maybe in the GCG hybrid thread.

Do a search for that thread and see how you go.

Yes I remember that thead its what prompted be to start this one id like to see it for a larger range of turbos

from this Thread^

R33 GTST

turbo - GCG hiflo with vg30 exhaust housing

details - Power FC, Nismo 550 Injectors, GTR34 Front Mount Int, GTR34 Fuel Pump, Sard FPR, Z32 AFM, HKS Step 1 Cams, HKS adjustable exhaust Cam Gear, CES Split Dump, 3" exhaust. Oil Cooler.

boost starts - 2200rpm

full boost - 19psi - 3800rpm 3rd gear

I modified the first post to do the test in 3rd not 2nd because of wheel spin.

Dude.

Leave traffic lights, engage second and then 3rd.

Slow down until engine revs are at 1000rpm.

Depress Accelerator.

Have Friend watch boost gauge.

Clinch teeth as car studders and protests.

Accelerate until Redline or until Police car appears behind.

Either slow to accept anal plundering or engage forth gear and then fifth in vain attempt to escape said plundering.

Report back to SAU with boost readings.

BASS OUT

Ha ha Nice one bass If your not making full boost to redline thats a pretty laggy turbo.

I live in the county so it makes it a bit easier 100kmph is about 4500 5000rpm in 3rd I think If you havent make full boost by then try 2nd. Your probably a bit laggy for my liking if it hasnt reached full boost by 5000rpm though.

A few points from me firstly. Doesn't the type of road affect boost points? ie a flat road is best? Does time also affect this? ie colder = earlier boost... anyway:

7pm flat road

R33 GTST manual

Turbo - standard

Details - 3 inch turbo back exhaust (CES split dump pipe, 7L high flow cat, turboSX cat back, twin pipe muffler)

Boost starts - 1000rpm

Fullboost – 8psi @ 2400rpm (note: this goes up to 9psi above 3000rpm)

Boost solenoid: not running the standard one, i've got one of those $22 mechanical boost controllers

    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
    • thanks GTSboy. My confusion at the moment is i am trying to locate the ignition, ECU battery power and the ECU negative The closest thing i can find is the for the S15 on Page 8 of the Wiring Specialties web page https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9F33_M_GgENQnZ6STMxVmVNd1E/view?resourcekey=0-eZ4nNRwRoqa1qvKlWWHm8A I cannot find the same diagram for the R33 RB25DET Series 2 dash plug pin out.... Do you know what the Pins? or know where i can find the same pinout diagram for the RB dash plug? Thanks for the advice on the box... i like a 6 speed so might be on the lookout or the box now.. a topic of discussion for another post...
    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
    • Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
