ill give him full credit once its tuned and running properly... its only idling and light revs atm lol

dont let it idle for too long...id keep it shut down now until you can give it some decent revs with the engine loaded up as this will help the rings to bed properly. Then feed it some boost!!

I know its hard to have it sit there and not drive it, but you should only turn key when you are ready to drive/tune it. It will give the engine the best possible chance to bed everything in.

that link is how i like to do things...don't baby them...run them hard to give them every possible chance.

hows the update going with this?

any final power figures?

don't quote me but i think it was making boost at 3000rpm and full boost at 4100rpm...they got to 530hp before the dyno shat itself. Ill get Simon to post when proper info comes to hand.

first proper dyno sheet 22p 536.3hp at only 7500 start to die off im gonna put it down to the size of the ex housing .81 single entry

he still hasnt touched the cam gear still set at 0 both sides and he said he still hasnt started looking for power. still conservative nearly 550ks to a tank so im pretty happy with it....

response for the size turbo it is is quite insane aswell neways have a gander

yeh ur rite file size is huge lol.... and no its not a run in tune.... thats basically a half done proper tune i had sum minor boost leaks to fix b4 he would push it ne further...... and wen i got back afta tightening a few t bolt clamps etc the dyno had magically arsed itself.... i waited 4 days in total to get the car redone only to try a sidestep of the clutch in 3rd and lets just say we found the weak point.... believe this or not but a hks gd max twin plate slipped b4 the gbox let go..... so yeh i wasted those four days down in brisbane for nuthin. im abit down for cash atm so thats the tune its gettin for the moment until the clutch is done. still tho 402rwkw is still nuthin to snuff ya nose at....

400rwkw is a good number dont get me wrong, but its only 46hp more than my 25 at basically the same boost level with a GT30. Granted im running E85.

I would have though an RB28 with big cams and a T04Z would be making a little more than that, maybe im wrong.

like i said theres still not finished.... havent touched cam gears at all 20p still 5 pound to go and also havent started pushing the timing at all yet its still very conservative. and yes e85 is good shit so ive heard im only on bp ultimate because thats all i can get..... and yeh i wasnt exactly happy with the first figure either but hey its a start and im going from there

    • Ok cool, because I do have some OEM BMW options for light(er) wheels. 17x8.5 M Sport wheels are 11kg and I could put 255's on them. Maybe that's an initial test.
    • So, in the effort of pulling apart airboxes and testing enclosures to see if this aids in MAP loss at WOT I noticed: 1) The ducts up the OEM intercooler holes from the front bar help IAT drastically, whether the pod is shielded from the engine bay by an airbox missing a lid, or an airbox WITH a lid. Plus you get more induction sound without the lid. Having half the airbox (with no lid) acting as a barrier to the headers seems to help. 2) For shits and giggles I checked the TB. This was full pedal travel. This is actually full travel of the TB. Photos aren't perfect, but there was definitely an amount of play in it and it wasn't against the stop. After much swearing and adjusting the pedal, I realised that the cable is actually too long for the skyline pedal travel to fully articulate it. Having the pedal adjusted so WOT was actually hard open on WOT resulted in an idle of 3500rpm. As an aside, this was also the TPS registering at 3.1%. I removed the above to give the pedal enough travel to actually fully open the TB. I now get a satisfying 'thonk' on full open and full closed which you can hear pumping the pedal as it hits the TB stops (with the bonnet open and intake back on). Luckily for me, the screw screws into a raised metal boss under this plastic piece that is now acting as the new throttle stop. I've gained about 20mm (ish) of pedal travel and I can move it maybe a mm or two post open-thonk before it's hard against the stop. After all of this I did a bit of road tuning because a 102MM throttle is sensitive. The difference between holding an 950rpm idle and instantly stalling is about 0.4% of TPS movement. Will that help? I suppose it can't hurt. I set 'closed' point back to where it was, I can definitely feel the extra pedal travel that is needed to actually open the TB fully. But this morning I dropped the car off at Paint Jail again, so who knows when this will re-eventuate out to see if it helps with the top of the dyno hitting a ceiling.
    • Take heart that everyone else seems to have found a way. The OEM S1 indicators do slot in pretty firmly. It may simply be a case of having them sit slightly looser and nobody actually ever noticed this when attempting to remove a indicator from a JSAI bar :p
    • If the original NA ECU has a separate TCU then you are going to need to reroute wires that used to run between the trans and the TCU to the appropriate (1 to 1 equivalent) pins on the ECU. Other than that, it should work. Look up posts by @Kinkstaah on the subject.
    • So the stagea was a series 2 neo det with tiptronic auto. (I have the transmission aswell) and has integrated tcu in the ecu. I'm hoping to use the entire stagea ecu, engine and auto harness.
