I Thought Slides Hiflows Hold 19psi?

R33GOD, not sure if this is relevant.

I've got a slide high-flow too. It's the VG30 one though. Mine spools up quick and comes on real hard. On my 34, i'm pulling 240rwkw on just 12 psi. And that's on a piggy back ecu. Will be running more boost soon once i fix on either a motec M48 or power FC.

Understand how you feel mate, i would be disappointed if i can't have my turbo performing at its peak level. However, we all have to agree Aaron made hell of a good hi flow :)

definately a good turbo for a standard hiflow. guess i could miss out of a few kw by having a better spool up than most other brands.

And for the price i paid overall i am satisfied

well 2nd gear breaks traction at 80% throttle without droppin the clutch so im happy. And i got thick 265's on the rear :D

how do u find lag with the vg30 rear and when do u get fullboost by?

also spoke to the tuner today and told me that it made more torque than when it had 240rwk previously.

so im happier now. And damn it gets to speed quicker

i guess it will have to do for now. if i get bored with it il get a nice big turbo next yr. But what turbo to make the most out of my supporting mods...... :P

To get a bigger turbo you'll probably sacrifice response for top end power.

IMO, an upgrade from the hi-flow might be the HKS 2835 pro s which seems to be able to break the 300rwkw mark and not too much lag and it can be internal gated.

I hit full boost at 12 psi at 3700 rpm.

Mods: full exhaust, fuel pump, fmic, pod, injectors. I guess the engine is pretty healthy, on my stock turbo, i made 210rwkw on just 10psi.

This may be a stupid question but where are you taking your boost reading from? If it is from the inlet plenum (standard location) it could be possible that the turbo is running at 19psi, and you simply have a few psi pressure drop across your intercooler, piping etc?

Just putting it out there you think it would of been better to go with say a hypergear turbo i got one myself sitting there waiting to go on and got mate with them on there cars and they are good will get you the numbers you wanted

since i got it tuned i personally havent driven it but was in the passanger seat. went better.

first time i took it for a drive yesterday and its sooo much more powerful and responsive than when it had 241rwk. i just couldnt believe how much better a car can go with less rwk. why is that? its got me puzzled

figured out how much peak torque it has too. 540nm torque at the fly :whistling:

could have a better torque curve, making it feel faster, but the most likely explanation is that you were sitting in the passenger seat, this always feels faster than driving

this is when i drove it for the first time a few days ago..

R33GOD - I just dropped my 33 off at Unigroup up here in Sydney.

Last time it was there they fitted the hi-flow and EBC.

Now Im going 550 injectors, z32 AFM and retune so I'll let you know how mine goes :)

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      You've just discovered a really good reason to tell yourself, yes, I do need to buy an aftermarket ECU. Put the MAF in the bin. Slap in the new ECU and have a think about what turbo sounds you prefer.  Do you want a 90's style BOV wooosh? Do you want a hektik tsututututu?  Mate, can't go wrong. Just gotta get that ECU and the world is your oyster.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Iam just curisou about this topic. I saw this video. It is about Greddy Type FV2. I know that BoVs are about that sound but how and when to use it? I read some topic here and from what i have understand on stock RB with MAF there will be some "problems" if you use this BoV? It vents the air in to the atmosphere and the MAF on stock car needs this air back in to the intake and not out? Or is it wrong? If so...i saw you can put some adaptor to circule air back...but does that not "loose" that sound? I saw another BoV from Turbosmart and it has two "exhaust" like ports? One is for the stock tubing for letting air back and one is for "sound" and let the air in the atmosphere? Can someone please explain? This is the Greddy one:  And this is the Turbosmart.     THANK YOU!! EDIT: So i read about this topic some more and i if i understand that correctly: That Greddy can function either like BoV or 100% Bypass valve? And that Turbosmart is what they called hybrid so you can adjust what and how many air can be vented out or back in? Is this right? THX!

      That dirty voltage drop is the culprit I suspect

      The Ls1 R33 Of Fury

      By MBS206 · Posted

      It's about time I start work on my sun tan. So I knocked up a few parts that will all combine together to become my new power steering reservoir. Now just to produce an abundance of UV and IR rays while melting a heap of bits of alu to become one... Well, that's after I put one more hole in it for the return line to plumb to. It likely won't be this weekend, as Sunday I'm meant to be in doing some last minute stuff to the AMG race car, and the weekend after will be filled with non my Skyline stuff, followed by Bathurst 6 hour. So I don't expect to get to melt metal for at least 3 weeks.   I also managed to stuff up and start cutting the hole for the res to pump pipe on the wrong side of the line... It means instead of the lines being nice and tight against the inner guard, they'll be out off the guard.    The size of it means I should end up with about 1.8L of power steering fluid, and still have space for another half a litre before it reaches the overflow/breather. This is wayyyyyyy more capacity than factory, which should help keep Powersteer oil temps lower, and the design hopefully allows it to prevent any aerated oil being able to makes its way down to the bottom as it'll have a couple of baffles and some hopeful trickery to force air bubbles away from the bottom.
