Not with that attitude! Call the Poindexter IMMEDIATELY! -
Thats something im actually curious about. Speed sensors on both turbos to see just how they both share the work load together. Curious if its the rear turbo that works harder like the factory stuff does? Obviously the removal of that horrible "twin turbo pipe" would help eliminate most of that.

Lack of Power/Lack of Boost - RB26
Mick_o replied to No Crust Racing's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
You're the 1 who has said your turbo has failed not me? Im telling you why and i can almost guarantee Its just the usual problem. Compressor maps dont mean a thing. Looked at the new maps garrett supply now? They incorporate TURBINES into the equation and give you a compressor flow based on turbine selection.... Gee I wonder why they did That??? -

You do realize that the turbines and the "infamous twin turbo pipe" are the likely cause of the twins failing? So throwing a billet wheel in thats gunna require being spun harder is only gunna put you back in the same scenario and faster. Poor man pays twice. Cheap out and pay for another set of turbos in another 5000km ? -

Why are you blokes talking about coilpacks in this BUILD THREAD? Lets keep the focus on this creature of the deep & more importantly when he chucks me the keys ? -
Stroker kit sold! Turbo still available... f**k buying Cadbury halal certified "non easter eggs" this Easter! Treat yourself to an epic turbo that gives no f**ks about your religion! ?

Oh what a crock of shit! Just get us over again we will find "new mods" for you mate! ? The modding bug has bitten HARD... Finally got what you desire now its time to fine tune it some more ?

Just something to add to that Video that piggy posted of me cruising and winding it on.. I dropped my foot no more than 10mm on the accelerator to maybe near quarter throttle when i filmed that little clip... SUPER IMPRESSIVE STUFF! If i was going to build a GTR i wouldn't venture outside of what Pete has built. Though id probably want a taste of a 9180 ?

The 8374 smoked the 6266.. 6266 felt like it "hit harder" probably because it was a solid 400+rpm off the pace in early gears compared to the EFR! The EFR feels alot more linear in its delivery. But thats just because it has more torque everywhere else than it did before. I done 2 other 1st - 4th gear pulls before that little clip that i made and pushed it a little harder up to 7500 and she doesn't let off! The thing i like most is how the EFR's respond to throttle. For example i was in 4th gear cruising at roughly 2800rpm bent the big toe down a bit and by 3000 its looking to start hauling again. As you can see in the clip short shifting it is a breeze and it just snaps back to life instantly. Pretty sure if you tromped this thing and short shifted it at 5000rpm it would boot you straight back up the ass as the needle snaps straight toward redline. This type of car might not suit everyones style but i can tell you not much would touch this thing on the street. Its a pretty special car & i feel very privileged to get a steer of such a beast! (ESPECIALLY BEFORE THE OWNER) ??? Pete! I bet that wrinkly ass is in bed while im typing this post so only 1 more sleep and we will have her home for ya mate! Make sure our piss is cold and your recycle bin is empty for when we get there because this calls for a celebration! ?
