Important fact to remember, in a drag racing senario the actual power transmitted to the pavement is alot different to the dyno graph. Unless you are willing to rev/antilag and dump the clutch on the dyno, then while the turbo is still spinning and has built up inertia change gear. Will show a completly different curve as turbo motors are not static output as a N/A motor would be. The graph would be alot fatter with more midrange/earlier boost "response".

Having said that, who the fcuk races a car from ~2,000rpm up to redline in 4th? Or has a direct drive dragster/rail that has no gearbox? That's the only result you can estimate based on these chassis dyno graphs...

There are a number of guys over here who can vouch for simon's TO4z setup as being a very attractive alternative to 2530's. The 'response' as people are starting to point out is to do with a stopwatch and how fast the engine spins up and boost/power happens, from this perspective the TO4z does infact seem to do this as well or perhaps even a tad better than the traditional 2530's with the added bonuses of more power, less moving parts, less parts in general and more room in the engine bay.Lets face it we are all looking for that pot of gold where we get fewer trade offs.

A good friend of mine has been lucky enough to witness the road going comparison to 2530's and although there where some engine differences it's very obvious the turbo delivers the excellent response we expect from 2530's from purely a timed delivery perspective (from on the gas to go).

At the end of the day I think the proof is in the pudding as they say, so Simon you just have to take a few more of us 2530 twin owners for a ride so we can back you up :D

what mods have you done becaues i am chasing 400 all wheel kw, currently doing 241awkw i have

power fc+controller

avcr, currently trying to tune it

high flow turbo. running 1bar

3.5inch catback exhoust+ 3inc high flow cat currently getting 3inch dump/front pipe the exhoust and cat has been added after the dyno

after market avr intercoller, looking at a better intercoller

Generally speaking, people want different things from their cars. So keep their GTR's stock, some pursue lap times, others drag strip times.

At the end of the day, anyone who owns a GTR that wants to run 10s on pump fuel without nitrous, is going to have to have to sacrifise response for top end power. You really cant have the best of both worlds. To some a 2500RPM power band is all thats needed, to the track driver it needs to be double that. 415 kw at the wheels is huge, and is enough power to post a 10sec pass, thats a great achievment. To some it wont mean much, they may look at a GTR with N1's that can do 1.40s round eastern creek as impressive. Critisising the response of a particular setup/turbo combination is fairly petty IMO.

jesus pnblight cant u say once that u think single turbos are ok, u are constantly on ya bloody twin turbo bandwagon, gives ya the shits, and simons has done an awesome job and proved it where it counts, and congrats simon u deserve plenty of respect mate :)

just an observation peter in the years ive been on the forums u never give credit to the single setups ever!

cheers

Brad

hehe, its not that bad m&m

Sometimes everyone just gets a tiny bit too passionate.

Its very rare.

Guys - just knock it back a notch. We all have our own beliefs.

Dont try push it upon one-another unless your using given fact as opposed to what you think works best, which at the end of the day is all that matters :)

Top effort Simon, will have to look out for you car next time I am down at the 'plex.

Just got myself back into another R32 GTR and I am very tempted to build it up but might wait until I finish the zed before I get carreid away.

Wonder how the TO4Z compares to the GT35R...

Geez Cuong - the only build that I know of that's taken longer than my R is your Z!! :lol:

I have a bit of a comparison between my car and Morgs' car on the same dyno, with 0.1 bar of boost difference. Very much a different response. I will post it up with Morgs' permission ... but not for a couple of days

Congrats on the result. The T04z people seem to be pulling big numbers

Thanks for the reply brad but i think u might go past me horspower power wise as u got a nice forged crank to rev ut hard and 2.7L ! I would like to try miine on 2 bar in a few weeks with some bigger squirters and see what the t04z is capable of because at 24psi its showing no signs of letting up yet.

I think this is true to a point but with turbo techonology of today and eveyrthing else advancing so far i think you can have the best of both worlds now . I ran a 10.9 babying the stock gearbox , the car makes 454rwkw's and has a power band 4000-9000rpm .

    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You don't need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator but depending on your plans you may need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
    • LOL, all of the CAI like Craig I just need to put a hole saw through my bumper Done and dusted, the car runs, which is nice, I'll take it for a spin when the weather clears up Just need to put the bumper back on for good
    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
