Good result mate peak power is very impressive, Id like to know what the go is with the torque spike to Dale. Boost starts at 2000 rpm 12psi by 3750 then slowly creeps to 13.7 at 4750 does this seem right for a GTRS people.

Thanks mates! I'm extremely pleased with my results...

This matches my goals perfectly... I wanted something streetable that i could enjoy at track events occasionally...

As for the torque spike... i'm not sure... might have something to do with my tomei poncams?

This setup I'm running is in my 95 s14... i love it! Handles beautiful on the road... the GTRS spools rather quickly for the amount of power it can push... I was wanting something to enjoy on the streets and this turbo performs just as i had imagined it...

In stock form... boost would build and set you back... but then as you climbed higher into the 5-6000 rpms it seemed like it would start to drop off...

Now, it just wants to go... it feels like it would just keep pulling ... i bumped up my rev limit (using my pfc) from 6900 to 7000....

But in any case i'm more than pleased with the results... My tuner informed me if i wanted to go any further with power i'd need to upgrade injectors... he said they're getting border line to the limit (i'm using nismo 550cc)

Ok my tips and comments:

I think full boost is a little late for my liking. What boost level are you aiming for? I would increase the boost duty cycle to get a small spike at hopefully around 3600rpm that you can then flatten out later in the rev range.

What boost control are you using btw? If it's something that has different duty cycles able to be set depending on rpm like an AVC-R then increase it later where the boost drops off or drop it in the middle if you are only after 12psi.

Apart from that, does anyone here have any idea how this translates to rwkw on a dyno dynamics dyno?

If the hub dynos if anything read higher then the 550cc injectors you have should be well up to the task. Yes, looking at the a/f plot it is starting to head north at the top end which indicates lack of fuel.

But reading your list of mods, I would be looking to the walbro pump as a suspect before the injectors.

I had the PowerFC boost controller on there but the tuner could never get it to work properly...

The shop where this was tuned is an Apexi excel dealer and certified tuner... he was on the phone with Apexi telling them what was up and they couldn't even figure out why it wasn't working... he said maybe the solenoid was messed up...

So right now it's just got a bleed valve on there... Which i'm not exactly thrilled about... but it gets the job done

The injector duty cycle on the settings in the PFC are at 86.5%

Ahh I didn't see the mods cos they were in the sig. Yeah that walbro is running lean up top like they all do. Ditch it and get something better. A GTR pump should do the job.

I think the injectors should be up to the task too. Check the pump.

Unfortunately GTR pumps are a little hard to source here in the states... What do you think about a Supra TT pump instead?

    • Already looked at a few prior to getting the MX5, really nice car, had all the mod cons, but I wasn't really sold on the new "look" I did miss my 2017 Limited, and I personally prefer the "look" of the older car over the new model, but, when pondering I kept going back looking at MX5's But it was same same for the new ND's, I wasn't sold on the new "look", especially the RF with its weird roof, which only half goes down, like a targa top sort of thing As I stated before, I did look at NC's, but the cars I looked at were PRHT's, but I didn't like their roof line "look" of the PRHT, until I saw the soft top version, (someone on SAU posted a for sale ad for one with a soft top that caught my attention, you can blame them for my choice.....🤣) and.... that old style detachable hard tops were available for them, which keeps the old MX5 more smoother flowing roof line, and the more rounded body style, similar to the NA-NB, to me, the arse end of the ND looks to "modern" Much like how I prefer the NC1 front bar, over the later models How long will I keep this car for is unknown, but currently, there's nothing else out there that "floats my boat" for a small, fun, little "sports car", that I can play with and enjoy looking at and driving But, who knows what the future holds, and going off current new car styling, if I replace it, it will be a older model something something       
    • looking forward to your t56 swap man its a game changer if it works! 
    • So, when are you trying the new GR86 or BRZ?
    • Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC IAT is measured under the blower hat I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c
    • Hey Mark...sorry to interrupt your career change to hair dressing... but...did you ever fit the interchiller to the commodore, and if so how was it? And, who made it?
