hi all im only new to this forum and i have already found it extremely useful.

ok i have an rb20det in my vl calais and am in the process of building up the motor basically with boltons,what do u think i could expect from the following combo?

Z32 AFM

rx7 series 5 550cc injectors

bosch 040 or 044 or gtr pump

either GT3040R or GT3071R turbo im unsure yet as to what turbo i am going to use, but will retain internal wastegate either way

600x300x76 fmic

aftermarket exhaust manifold

3 inch split dump pipe

3 inch mandrel bent exhaust

and have the stock ecu retuned by sam at dr drift

oh yeah car is a 5speed 33 box and diff is 9inch lsd with 4.11s if this makes any difference

what power do u think i could see, all internals r completely stock

do you think 220rwkw is dreaming or could i nearly get there?

thanks heaps

220 is realistic. a GTS4 with a hiflow made 210rwkw on sams dyno at 17psi.

I would imagine a GT30 family turbocharger should make a touch more, but it will be more laggy. The GTS4 was locked into rwkw mode

If you want 220rwkws the dont worry about going for a turbo as biug as those you suggested. A much smaller garrett will ame the power you want...a highflow of an R33/34 turbo or a 2nd hand HKS 2530, or a new HKS2530 KAI should all be good for 220rwkw and be more responsive then big tubos like GT3070R etc

i use a 2530 on my rb20, i think its brilliant. I'm more than happy with it.

I'm not making 220rwkw with mine but theres other who seem to be making those sort of numbers. i'm making just over 205rwkw with mine.

As roy said, those turbos above are abit over kill

and have a look at few different setups.

i may have been misinformed but i was told the series 5 rx7 injectors were a straight swap.

If not i will just run the gtr injectors and ballast resistor from kudos motorsports. the gtr injectors are 444cc right. how much rwkw are they good for?

and if i had a GT3071R would it be overly laggy, when would it start to make boost and when could i expect full boost. (i dont know how much i can run yet so say would 16psi be safe with all stock internals?)

hes got your engine mixed up, thinking it was an r33 gtst engine. those injectors will work fine

a turbo you could look at would be a gt2571r with a .63 housing. would be good for a little more power than that however

I went for a GT25 BB 400 with a 0.64 housing to keep the lag down on my GTS4. The car makes positive manifold pressure in the low 3K mark in the higher gears and is always at full boost by 4200 regardless of which gear i am in at the time.

I will soon have installed my anti-lag system which will allow me to spool to 18lb at 3500 rpm for launching and flat gear change shifting with no loss of boost pressure between shifts.

I totally agree with the other guys here.. buy the smallest turbo that you can that is capable of making the power you want. Then if its still too laggy when you go racing get anti-lag.

    • Have you put an aftermarket oil pressure gauge on and verified your oil pressure?   Noise being on the block, on exhaust side, how high up the block does it seem to be? It could be the VCT system getting cranky, especially if it's mainly at idle, and when warm, as that'll be your lowest point for oil pressure. Could be showing that oil passages / VCT solenoid are blocking.
    • Well, hydraulic lifters will get noisy if they are dirty/fouled in some way, and exactly how that manifests will depend on exactly what schmutz is where. There is a procedure on here somewhere for dismantling and soaking/cleaning them. Replacing them with new is about 50% of the work and about 5% of the money!
    • Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy this is is a hydraulic lifter engine. Yea right i did not realise the lifters were supposed to be compressible while installed. I could push them down but i had to lean almost my while body weight on them.  I have never heard of a lifter/ lifters ticking only at hot idle and getting worse the hotter it gets. I have owned a few jdm cars with noisy lifters. This noise is slightly more subtle, it is more of a sharp gentle metalic tic than the solid and more loud tapping I've heard on lifters. I have used a metal rod, alloy tube, hose and stethoscope and could not find the source of the tick. But it appears to be loudest on the actual engine block behind the exhaust cam gear and next to the oil filter. I had mate (40 year old mechanic) go over it with me and he couldn't find it either..  Could it be a cam seal issue of some sort?  Cheers  
    • This seems problematic and unlikely at the same time. Vanilla RB2Xs have hydraulic lifters. They do have "zero" clearance, but only when running with oil pressure inside them. When not running, you should be able to compress them and obtain heaps of clearance. RB26s and Neos have solid lifters. They should have ~0.3mm and ~0.5mm on the inlet and exhaust respectively. If they have zero clearance then bad things are happening. With nothing else being wrong, it would mean that the valves would be held slightly (ever so slightly) open when they are supposed to be closed and it should have all sorts of problems when running, caused by leakage in/out through the valves. Or, zero clearance can indicate severe valve seat recession. None of it is good. Have you used a piece of hose as a stethoscope to try to localise the noise?
