FMIC don't really give power.

Is your POD exposed or boxed up(enclosed)? If its exposed your probably losing power right here compared to a standard airbox because of the heat from the engine bay.

Power isn't everything take your car to the drag strip and see how it performs against other cars with the same or more power.

Its ONLY A dyno reading, its used for tuning get your powerfc in wack in more boost and tune it and you will get the results or thereabouts.

Just get the power fc in it, the stendard r&r is far more severe on the r34 than the r33. I dyno'd a stock r 34 gtt, then he went away and got a million dollar front mount, million dollar exhaust, and brought it back, gained 4 rwkw, and lost about 30 kw in the midrange. looked like a rollercoaster. How does your dyno graph look?This one had 2 or 3 skijumps instead of the usual one for a r33)

for 33's i disagree, I've heard people say 12psi through 33's stndard cooler but with my own s2 i found that bloody unlikely as mine was majorly miss behaving with the standard smic.

drop a free'ER flowing fmic and piping and walla...she stoped nock,backfiring an just drove like a frign dream.. after that.

I get a jjr split front an dump, this weekend, im putting in my widebody 3" catco with it on my 3" cat back and il let you all know what she's like @ 10psi

the stock maps scale up when inc boost, so is it a rising rate when inc boost so the car literally runs worse afr;s or they come down a bit ?

The afr's get heaps worse when upping the boost, even standard they can go off the scale(<10:1), and it just gets worse from there, the other major problem is that the computer pulls out heaps of timing which loses any powe gain you would have had.

184rwkw @ 9psi with boost dropping hard (midrange was at 13psi)

FMIC, Pod

Zorst with terrible cat (changed now, goes better)

Avcr (hate it)

Power FC

Somehow want to hold 14psi and make 200rwkw, we'll see if i can sort the boost dropping issues out.

This is an r34 thread so this post is completely irrelevant and will only serve to confuse people who don't read carefully.

FMIC in r34's rare give any power. This much is true.

Dyno's do give very different read outs and are not comparable without controlled circumstances. For instnace, I went to Bel garage Mainline dyno one day and got 255rwkw, a month later on a similar day weather wise, with no other changes, I got 256rwkw on the Dyno Dynamics dyno at UAS.

Now if I went to Bel and got 255rwkw and you went to UAs and got 255rwkw I would not expect that they would have identical power until both cars had been on the other dynos.

ps. I now have 272rwkw on Unigroup's Dyno Dynamics dyno but got over 300rwkw on another dyno.

    • You have the option to do this. Nobody but me ever did this (go slower, I mean) Everyone seems to fall victim to "This would be a great setup for you, but for me, I need a little more power..."
    • Save yourself the headache of an alarm. Immobilizer on the signal side of the main EFI relays so it won't start is good enough. DIY killswitch is the same thing except instead of a nice passive system you need to remember to switch it on and off.
    • Yeah, the advent of canbus was supposed to cut down on wiring weight, then some bright marketing wonk says "oh, look at all these wonderful tech gadgets we can cram in here now that we have this wonderous technology" and some arsehole safety legislator says "oh, look at all the wonderful surveillance and tracking gadgets we can cram in here now that we have this wonderous technology" and some dipshit young engineer who has grown up thinking that an extra 500000 lines of code is not a problem because storage is cheap these days says "oh look at all this wonderful shit I can do to one up those dipshit arsholes over at VW" and the Karens of the world all go "oh look at all these fancy things I can do on my screen (so long as I am not driving on a bumpy road wherein touch screens immediately become the single most stupid shit idea ever shoveled into a car) and my 19 zone airconditioning keeps my sweaty fat folds a bit less damp and the windows close themselves because I'm too fat and lazy to wind them up for myself and these reversing sensors would have been great if I'd paid attention to them instead of smashing them on the bollard while I was reversing and staring fixedly forward that day I went to pick up little Charlize from ballet" and the sweaty mongoloids who say "oh this wonderful collision avoidance technology with these 45 excellent radar antennae scattered across the front of my car mean I can tailgate like a methed up tradie at full speed with no fear because the car and the 35 airbags will protect me if it all goes wrong" ...... </shallistopranting?>
    • There's a post from a member (can't recall who), went down the path of a twin scroll G30-660 and it's doing over 300kW+ AND comes on about the same as a high flow RB25DET turbo. Have your cake and eat it too in this case. TBH, if I had a 2nd chance of building my car again (i.e. someone gave me what I wanted for my shit box, but the deal was I had to re-build another R33 and keep the change) I would just pop in a stock NEO motor (with new seals, rod bearings, ARP studs, head gasket, sump, Nitto pump), get a smaller twin scroll turbo, modify the stock low mount (keep the divider in place), and make a solid 300kW on 98RON and call it a day.
