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

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
