Rb25 Turbo Upgrade

[Munna]

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.

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

If you want good midrange, i had a 2530 and if you floored it from 70k's in 3rd gear, it would pull like a train. There was no use dropping it back to 2nd from thaty speed. Currently im trying a 2535.

[predator]

huh? 1000rpm in 3rd gear?

Thats right mate from idol though so the car is nearly stalling before you floor it.

[predator]

oh from standstill.. I am not sure if thats the best test though?

I thought you were talking about a rolling test...

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.

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
