Sydney Dyno? And Mod Advice

[MrMike]

Ok guys i have an R33 GTST S1.5

Current mods are

*K/N Pod filter

*Cat Back Blitz Nur Spec R Exhaust........think 3inch

*Apexi AVCR Boost controller

Ok so i think my coils are buggered because if i up the boost to about 11psi at around 4500rpm it runs like crap.....any suggestions?

So the plans are to get a

3inch Dump/Front pipe..........What should i do about the cat?

Split fire coils

High Flow turbo T3/T4 and run a max of 13psi

Apexi SAFC

With this combo should i hit the 200rwkw mark

Now on to my next question

Where in sydney should i take it to get a tune......need cheap and quality

Regards

Mick

its the stock ecu doing its protection cos theres too much airflow (from the boost increase)

fit and tune the safc to avoid, then youll make the power you want

[MrMike]

thats some good news really didn't want to fork out the 600 bucks for coils.

So do you think with my current setup i should get 200kw on 12psi or with the mods i want to do?

Also how will my stock intercooler hold up? really don't want a front mount

Cheers

[paulr33]

yeah you will make 200rwkw easily with those mods

you should just get a fmic but its not essential

it will mainly take away some of the increased intake temps

from when you increase the boost

[ICER33]

i was making 204 rwkw with the following

- turbo back exhaust and high flow cat

- pod

-avcr (.95bar)

- fmic

-stock turbo

its a good tune that will make the car just as long as you have done the basic mods.

put in cam gears and pfc and made 224rwkw at .95bar

[Nismo_God]

damn....sounds just like mine..

i have turbo back exhaust, fmic, pod, profec ii at .85 and stock ecu and made 202.6kw....

so you only put cam gear and pfc and made 224 of stock turbo at say 13psi?

Maybe i should invest in pfc....

Have a read of my thread.

HERE

213 rwkw @ 13 psi with stock turbo. mods are

-FMIC

-3 inch exhaust

-RB20 ecu remapped

-AVCR

Thats it

[Nismo_God]

im going to a dyno day sunday....looking to get closer to your figures as i raise boost up a bit....prob to 13psi....but i got stock ecu...so thats holding me back.

[Simon-S14]

yes it is, SAFC will get you there, but you wont get as much gains as a full remap.

Sure mine doesnt make heaps of power... but the midrange torque is crazy... and the lag is non existant. This is all without the vct too

Hey where is the dyno day at.

[MrMike]

hey simon that rb20 ecu is really interesting........how much does a full remap and tune cost for one.?

also if i just plugged in the 20 ecu would the car run as normal or needs to be remapped first>?

you should think about getting the eeprom copied im sure alot of people would be interested in buying that....

The Map is not mine to sell, Mate of mine does the tuning for a reasonable price either way See my sig for details for The Speed Lab

As for the ECU, it is plug in and the car will probably start and idle but it wont be driveable thats for sure (rb20 has smaller injectors) so your best bet would be to leave the 33 ecu in there and drive to the tuner. Or get the 32 ecu epromed, buy chip from TSL and plug it in and drive it, Would be best to get it on a dyno to check everything before you really drive it hard tho.

As for price, ECU cost me 50 and the mapping/dyno time averages around 300-400 including chip install

[seamonsta]

Toshi on this forum can also do the R33 chip and he is at North Ryde in Sydney, PM him for prices etc, I had my R32 chipped - best mod I have done and Toshi is a good bloke to boot!

[MrMike]

I have a series 2 engine in the car will the rb20 ecu still work? sounds like a much better investment than the safc 2 i just bought. apparently the safc2 i bought has a 192rwkw tune on it.....how safe is it to run that tune on my car......

I have a diagnostic tool that i can monitor the knock signal and rich/lean mixtures while driving......if i have no detonation or continual rich/lean running .......it should be alright yes?
