Martin would it be possible to have an overlap copy of the V8's 400+rwkw power torque curve and maybe your Soarer, a few r33's with different power levels and a couple of R32's thrown in their?

or

If I can have a copy of the above runs I will overlap them and make a post here ?!?!

Chris what mods?

Joel, HKS 2510 turbo @ 1 bar, FMIC, 3" exhaust, Bosch pump and re-mapped computer

Check out this dyno chart. This is from the weekend, a good comparison between Grepin and Freebaggins RB25 and my RB20. Just shows how much 1/2 litre makes a differance in the midrange

note - I have blurred out our rego numbers just in case there are theiving bastards browsing the forums for quick cars, but have marked which one is what

Just looking at the AF's Chris it looks like yours was running quite a bit leaner in the mid hence the power loss possibly?

I remember when mine was tuned similiar with similiar AF's it lost heaps in the mid range.

I found that running the mid a little richer (just under 12) made best power.

The PowerFC looks like it has a very good power curve and also AF' Ratios. hrmmm

Yeah, not to sure Joel. I just put it down to being 2L v 2.5L with variable inlet timing. If I compare the dyno chart from when it had the stock turbo on, the mid-range is virtually identical.

Going to use a electronic boost controller instead of the bleed valve to try and fill the mid-range in a bit.

Perhaps Martin could comment on this, as he tuned it and would have a greater understanding of this then I would?

I found with the EBC it actually came on to boost a little slower but was more controlled compared to the bleed.

I.e the Bleed felt quicker because it would spike up really quickly then boost would slowly drop off, the top end would flatten out where as with the ebc it still comes on hard but it is only hitting say 1 bar instead of 1.1 bar however the top end is better due to not loosing boost.

Might be different with the 2510 unless that drops boost up top also with a bleed?

Nah, doesn't drop off at the top end. I just want to see if it will get ti th 1bar quicker than it does currently

I'd like to get a EBC anyway, so I don't have to fiddle around under the bonnet if I want to run less boost. Wil be good to see what differance it makes on my car

OK, it's on, The "How Crap!" Challenge:

Gotta beat Chris32's RB20 power level.

Gotta beat MattR's RB25 powered power level (no it doesn't help mate).

Gotta beat Nightcrawlers 400m elapse time.

Gotta beat Martin's 1Jz power level.

....man-o-man. Give me some time & $$.

Freebaggin.

P.S. Also gotta keep grepin at bay!

    • The interesting part of tests like IM240 is they measure the exhaust output. But they never measure the gases going into the engine... Imagine doing the test in a densely populated city with higher CO2 levels around... Instant disadvantage...
    • I have two German Shepherds that like to bite things that are in places they shouldn't be. Plus the cars/batteries on chargers are inside a locked garage, inside that fully fenced and locked yard. If you can get the car out, you can have it, as I'll be having one hell of a laugh at your expense.
    • Looks like they changed the wording in the manual for the new model. I have a different model. Mine is CC1206. Not CC1206-XLI. Mine doesn't support lithium at all. I can't find the manual for my model online and they don't list the model on the Century website anymore either. In my manual it says what I quoted and that they recommend to not leave it on 🤷‍♂️ Sounds like you'd be fine with this one now.
    • Thanks for actually answering every single point! I noticed the date only after posting. And yes, looks like things have changed a little bit since then. FWIW, looks like Government Gazette No 253 has the current emissions test procedure. Sounds pretty reasonable altogether. One thing I learned from this is that it's possible to check whether a catalyst does any work by measuring the temperature. Catalyst outlet temp is at least 40°C higher than inlet temps if there is a reaction happening. I'd be curious to check this on mine but don't have a thermometer. Because purely going by smell it can't be doing much. Personally I'd be okay to pay for the test as long as it's within reason. My main concern would be to lose my rego because it definitely wouldn't pass the test in its current state. I'll see if I can do a bit more digging and see what's involved in doing this nowadays.   To be fair I don't think it's stopping many people from doing the modifications anyway. It just puts a barrier up to doing things right  
    • Uhhh if anyone sees this - I bought a BRZ years ago, on my fulls soon so back on the market for the R34!
