DREMEN: you wont need to worry about injectors and fuel system until you start running bigger turbos etc.

If you havent already done the front section of your exhaust ie the dump pipe, front pipe and cat then do that first.

Following that a Power FC will give you a substancial increase.

After that you start looking at rebuilding/replacing your turbo, which will then present the need for bigger injectors etc in your quest for more horsepower.

* Full exhaust (if it isn't already), this'll give you better midrange response and an increase of around 7-10rwkw

* Exhaust side Cam Gear

* Good Tyres (no point having heaps of power if you can't put it to the ground)

* How many km's has it done? If its more than 70,000 throw a new clutch in it, you'll be suprised at the difference

Forget about a bigger turbo and aftermarket ecu for now, theirs still more to beat out of your standish setup before you look for the easy way out. Besides once you start throwing on a bigger turbo you often forget about the tiny little things that can make a difference.

OK its done over 70, 000km's so I would be looking at new clutch

I will run 12 psi through it (We will increase it on the dyno to check for detonation)

High flow cat - I don't want to remove the standard because I just got ripped hard by the EPA 2 weeks ago :D

Dump pipe...

Cobra exhuast do a high flow cat & dump pipe for $700ish

What about an apexi AVCR?

    • Here is a recipe. Sonic blocks till you get one that has a good enough bore. Get a torque plate and block brace, use your choice of fasteners (arp ect) bolt the thing together empty, half fill it and let it cure. Release it when it has, go to a REPUTABLE RB Builder and get the thing line bored/honed and cylinder honed to size, then wash. Once its all clean and dandy, wash and blow it out again. Then again.  Assemble said engine to your desired clearances with oil control mods, gasket to suit desired CR/Squish ect. Attach your extended sump with proper trap door oil baffles and head drain plumbed to sump with a SUMP BREATHER SYSTEM. Build your front diff with a decent LSD, rebuild your transfer case with a few extra plates, more than likely replace your tailshaft centre bearing and tighten up the rear diff. Tune to minimise excessive midrange cylinder pressure (timing unless you like to split bores and rebuild engines) Enjoy your engine, but hate the fact you are now destroying engine mounts, gearboxes, gearbox mounts, diff output flanges and driveshafts, diff mounts, tailshafts and front CV's.   Disclaimer.... Ive never done any of the aforementioned stuff.......
    • 440s will support well over 400HP on petrol, which is a decent place to be for an RB20. 230+rwkW. Will be a safer bet for idle/low load. 550s would be nice for the extra headroom. I've made the same decision with mine (Neo25). 1000s are probably too big for the Nistuned ECU, so I have some smaller ones.
    • Appreciate everything guys. I did go ahead and get an alignment... most of my complains are solved. Car is not perfect, but it's good enough. If I notice uneven tire wear or anything I'll just take everything back to stock.  Thanks again!
    • They still have not shipped the 550cc injectors as they weren't in stock, so in theory I could ask to get the 440cc ones instead, if those work better in my scenario. They're the same price so really shouldn't be an issue. Unfortunately I am not so knowledgeable in most parts of tuning so I wasn't sure what's best to choose between the two. 440cc ones are the lowest they have (not in stock, but available to buy nonetheless).
