That RB20 I don't know whats wrong with it. I think it had a restricted cat. But it seems like lot of people have dumped mega boost in to RB20 and get just over 200KWs mark.

well let the dyno reading speak for it self on the rest.

Your dyno charts are very interesting...but abit suss...looking at the graphs for the rb25 and the ca18...they were both running your TR43 yeah? how can a ca18det spool up the same turbo faster than a rb25? From the graph the ca18 makes more power across the entire midrange from about 90-130km/h...that is very weird...but good results none the less...please comment...

That would just be the nature of the Turbo/Engine/Mods/Tune combination I guess That RB25's running TR44. here's dyno sheet from a 440HP BB turbo on RB25 with cams Hitting 25PSI and drop to 22PSI @ 240KWs . compare it the graph with the CA graph which hit 24PSI drop to 19PSI @230KWs.

For that CA you might want to speak to Dr.Drift as he was the tunner so he would know lot more about what he have done to the engine him self. That RB25 was tunned at Pro-Tek

limpus are you In Vic? Just come and test drive the demo cars. I think that will solve lot of misunderstandings.

      Thanks for your insight, it being basically useless will impact my decision for sure. I thought it may help the engine breath better I guess. But then again, I have also been told that tuning an RB20DE is also not worth it. Exactly, we follow EU Regulations. There is a bit more leeway on older vehicles. My Porsche 924 came without a cat from factory and managed to pass, they still mentioned that I have quite high emissions on it though.

      My apologies, I stand corrected. Thanks for registering to mention this! And thank you for actually reaching out to the council to clarify. This is the sensible thing to do and the opposite of what I was alluding you were doing. I may have seen too much outrage and hate being fueled on the internet and it has made me a somewhat cynical old man. Sometimes it is easy to forget that there are real people behind websites and accounts. In my defence, CarExpert and CarExplore do read quite similarly at a glance. I shall try and do better in the future. (Please stick around to get the latest scoops on dealing with old Nissan shitboxes )

      Don't bother. The poor little RB20 doesn't make enough gas flow to challenge the flow capabilities of even the littlest cat, and you won't make any extra power, and all you'll do it soot up your rear bumper. Plus....is Malta not runing under Euro regs?

      Hey Daniel, sorry to hear that and thanks for posting up for us at a really hard time I only knew SmoothLine through the forums, we never met as we are based in different states, but when he was most active on here he was quite a while back so not many of the current crowd might remember him. I am pretty sure he was active in the Queensland SQU club but that is defunct now too (times are changing and we are all getting older). Farewell SmoothLine!

      Turns out depending on whether the car was equipped with TCS or not there are different signals coming to the dash, meaning there are different speedo clusters.  Wired in a speedo calibrator box from aliexpress and now works fine.
