More Power From Rb20 Before Boost

[thrtytwo]

how do i get this ? what mods would likely effect specifically the low RPM ?

lightened flyweheel maybe ?

[r32matt]

Changing the Cams should give you more low down power. A lightened Flywheel will let it rev quicker which should get it into boost quicker. Im running a lightened flywheel and i think there is a big difference. My mates R32 doesnt react as quick when taking off and the revs go up so much quicker on the run.

cams wont give you more low down power. not before boost anyway. theyre designed to be bigger and help higher up in the rev range

try cam gears.. worked well for me, basically shifted my whole power curve left

otherwise, the usual exhaust mods should help

oh, and throw in some more base timing

[cohen20]

a rising rate fuel pressure reg made a difference

An aftermarket ecu or ecu remap with a set of adj cam gears will give you a little.

Apart from that a bigger motor.

haha bigger motor cheers guys.

need to get dump/front pipe and a high flow cat. hopefully that will help

thanks for tips !

exhaust and ecu gave me more response low down

cam gears felt it made it come on boost earlier

What cams?? They brought boost on earlier im guessing by ur comment?

Thats what im looking for, not somethin to give me heaps more top end but abit more low down.

Otherwise i may just chuck the rb20 n go rb25 coz its such a pig off boost hahahaha

stroke it you know you want to.

cam gears, not cams

[Cubes]

Waz, for some reason I thought u were running gtr cams?

[mad082]

just bolt a rb25 in. give you much more power all over the rev range.

[WazR32GTSt]

i am, but i also run adjustable cam gears

but i don't think the cams contribute to off boost performance, more the cam gears that adjust the cam position...

which was what i was trying to say...

How much money are you willing to spend? At the end of the day the little RB20 will never be a great off boost performer. Cam gears, and tune may give you a little bit more in the mid, say 5kws??? But at what price.

Throw on a baby steel wheel turbo, run 15psi and run the ECU, fuel pup and bolt ons needed. By this time you have spent well in excess of 6k...and you will still have nothing off boost. Its a 1350 (driver, fuel etc) car with a little low compression 2L....sadly you can thave everything
