Hi Fellas,
Some of you may know, I recently got my new setup, it is as follows:
1) RB25/30 Engine
2) GT35R 0.82 A/R Turbo
3) PLazmaman plennum
4) Nismo Injectors
5) GReddy FMIC
6) Nismo 555cc injectors
7) Bosch 040 Fuel Pump
8) 3.5" straight through exhaust
9) Tial 38mm external wastegate
10) Power FC
+ All the other usual smaller mods.
My old setup was just the standard RB25 engine, with the HKS GT2835 Pro S Kit 0.68 A/R, and I had all the other mods, apart from the RB30, the GT35R, and the external gate.
My Power with my new setup is 312 rwkw @ 16PSI
The power with my old setup was 272 rwkw @21 PSI
I took my brother for a drive today, and he agreed with me the car feels much slower than it used to. He said with the old setup, it felt like it was going "warp Speed" haha, but with this new setup, the drive just feels boring.... As you can imagine, I spent over $20,000, so his statement cut me pretty deep.
Anyway, once I wind up the boost to about 24 PSI on this setup to acheive a result of around 370 rwkw, do you think that rush feeling will come back?
I am pretty cut and need some advice.
I took the liberty of plotting the curve in an excel spread sheet.
The Yellow line "my GT35R" is my current setup.
The red line is my old GT2835 setup.
The blue line is this other fellas setup with simular mods to me.
As you can see, the new setup pretty much follows the exact line as my old 2835 setup at the start, and the overtakes it, so I don't understand how it can feel slower??
It's not just me, I've taken a few people for a drive in this past week and they've said the same thing.... it's cutting me up...
ANyway, any help would be appreciated.
Cheers.
