I would gone different dumps, but for 300/320awkw it's not going to make much of a difference.

24psi peak, 8000rpm will be fine. Set the limiter for 8200 or so and fit a shift light to go off at 7500rpm.

You can do it with stock dumps, hell 380rwkw is no problem.

I put trust dumps on, the result overlayed with a car on stockers = same.

A question for the more knowledgable.

Wanting to know with a built RB26, supporting mods with -7's optimal RPM and boost setting PSI please.

Tomie Type A poncams 260 9.15

Chasing 300 or so awkws

Let me know if you need more build details

Turbo's will be out of puff by 7500rpm so you won't need to be taking it any further than that.

As for boost, set-up dependant. 20-24psi however expect the -7s to trail off to around 18psi by 8000rpm as again, they are just small.

They are on that early anyway you don't need to keep the boot in till 8000rpm :)

Which stock dumps though?

Starting with a 32, if you're after -7 power just stick 34 dumps on, for more power I would certainly choose different.

Trust being the same as stock is pretty shitty for the trust product.

As for running out of puff, sinista32 go back through this thread and look for the results I posted with dyno sheet and specs. That's a stock 73.7mm engine, you can see where power starts and drops off for yourself :)

R33 GTR. Go measure R33 and R34 dumps. You'll be surprised at what you'll find out :)

Maybe they were Tomei, there were bigger, but really didn't offer anything other than a different exhaust note to be honest.

They'd already dropped off 4psi. Probably another 1psi if 300-400rpm more was used. :)

Also do a graph with the tractive effort etc, they just start to nose well over unfortunately.

Of course they are still "holding power", mine was as well, but actually drive them and they feel outta legs by 7500rpm as both boost & torque are disappearing fast.

You'll just grab the next gear out of feel more than anything else.

Lol - just went to page one and read every post. Then got here and the graph was here.

I'm going to split difference and go 22 PSI and 7500 8000RPM.

Then drive by feel/sound.

Once again guys :cheers:

Why would you be aiming for 310kw with that motor, chuck on some -5s with better cams. Hell that motor has some decent parts in it to take a lot more than the figure you can achieve on a stock bottom end with those turbos.

Hey Dan. thanks

I'll drive this around for a while because it's what I have got (read cash strapped). I am sure I will get bored with 310kws.

Then when cash flow allows I can try to pick up a set of 2530's and different cams - perhaps by next christmas.

I'll search the forum for results on comparisons for the -5's and 2530's.

Lag is the enemy and i drive on the street mostly.

Having gone from -9s to -5s... Lag is indeed the enemy.

It was must more fun with the -9s on a a street driven car and in the hills (say 70-130km/h).

-5s IMO would be a bad choice and they are not as responsive, in between gears they are noticeably laggier too.

I also found I was dropping an extra gear everywhere to get more run. Where with the -9s you just don't because they were on earlier :thumbsup:

They don't have the big top end so they don't feel "fast", as they are very linear.

that dyno chart on this page shows -7 turbos making 22psi at about 4800rpm? thought they make full boost by 4000 give or take?

Yeah but "full boost" is a relative term, so not very useful. If that car was running 17psi boost, he would be making full boost at 4000, which is about right.

1. Just a dyno setting. Use it instead of boost.

2. As i said earlier mate you won't stop the boost dropping off.

They are small turbos, it's just impossible for them to flow that much as thier purpose is not top end :)

They don't have the big top end so they don't feel "fast", as they are very linear.

having gone from RS's to -5's on my stroker, they most definitely don't 'feel' as fast, but the car is alot quicker in 97% of cases. It's not all about what your butt feels... Just look down at your speedo!

We all can whack on a T88... But be belted off the line from a Camry!

My GTR is back from the tuners.

The figures read a little high im thinking - 329.8akws @18psi. Dyno Dynamics in shootout.

I'm told AFM is between 11.8 and 12. Graph has Lambda readings which I dont know the conversion factor on.

All in all not bad but from 4500 to 5200 i get what I describe as a miss/fluttering/flat feeling.

I can rev out of it/passed it - eventually but it annoys me greatly. This is generally in 3rd/4th 50% of the time.

Sometimes it occurs at lower rpm in 1st/2nd. (bit like boost cut actually)

RPM set to 8200 through the Haltech.

Be lucky to get to 6500-7000rpm under real load on the road. I expected to be out of puff around 7500 on -7's

New NGK copper bcpres7es plugs.

I suspect gapped at 0.8mm as using an experienced tuner. (Although I havent looked, yet).

New Splitfire coil packs and loom.

If you have some advice I'd be glad to hear it.

The graphs appear jerky to me, from what I have seen through this thread. ie. no smooth curve.

Told it's to do with not being able to get the Gsensor on an angle.

I couldnt get a printout displaying Power/RPM/PSI. Had to use km/h at the base :(

PS. I will be chatting with my Tuner first but I am curious and it's Sunday...

    • LS is a good motor, but it hurts my soul when I see it in a RB. Guess it fixes the oiling issues lol.
    • I'm confused. Does this qualify as "Gregging" or are you somehow avoiding the Gregging?
    • More assembly going on, with all sorts of "bolt right on bro" scenarios going on here. Smartly, PTV clearance was checked. And I say smartly because it turns out that the intake was 0.009" from piston meeting valve. This is 0.23mm. This is very not okay. A fast meeting was facilitated between engine builder in Australia and engine builder in the USA which was actually incredibly helpful and constructive actually, various ideas thrown around to get around this issue including: 1) Retard the cam timing which would have brought the exhaust valve closer to meeting piston (it was 0.065") which was uncomfortably close to begin with, and change the cam profile making it 'laggier' 2) Much larger head gaskets which would reduce compression, but half the point of this was to increase compression. 3) New set of pistons ($$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$) 4) All of the above 5) Get ghetto The concept is you get sticky sandpaper and stick it back to a valve, slightly larger than the valve you/I'm using, like say from a LS3/rectangle port head. You now have a very super advanced flycutting tool to modify your pistons in your block. Then you install it in your head, and attach the other end of the head to a drill. Then you just replicate your valve smashing into a piston with your spinning drill.   This is the result. Repeat many times. It is strongly recommended you have some kind of fixed stop when doing this for extremely obvious reasons because if you press too hard then you're well into apocalyptic repercussion land. The minimum clearance on the intake valve is now 0.075" this is still in the "Too close to be really comfortable" and into "It should be fine" land. Supposedly in the real world the clearances will be slightly bigger. Guess this is what happens when people push envelopes for N/A engines instead of adding boost! Time to move onto the new, upgraded, higher ratio roller rockers from Yellaterra, all tapped and threaded with a stronger bolt for better stability. Very nice. Lets see how they fit. For f**ks sake. Time to bring the grinder out for these aftermarket, machined and CNC'd heads. Looks like the new, beefier rocker from YellaTerra has gone from Bolt on part to "Bolt on part". Well, lets see how this bolt on crank scraper and windage tray goes then, shall we? There actually is more clearance than they specify for this thing, but seeing it all move as you check it is terrifying when you see it all so very very very very nearly hit things. But after all, this is what the item is designed to do after all and actually did bolt on perfectly and have enough clearance to everything and some very clear and direct instructions. So +1 to Improved Racing I suppose. As above with the windage tray on. Photo of breaker bar wonkiness for added lols. Next up: Oil pump/front cover/water pump/sump and then it's time to actually install the heads, pushrods, head bolts, valve cover gaskets and such is all there and ready to go. (except the oil pump bolts which were previously longer for more clearance with the previously perfectly installed double row timing chain). There's definitely a sense that someone other than us has been here before and done everything perfectly, or at least considered it and came up with working solutions. Perhaps the previous cam was 6deg advanced to avoid PTV issues with the milled stock heads? In any case when I attempt to sell this stuff the buyers are going to be very directly informed.
    • my catch can is pretty easy to empty but it overflows due to the blowby/crank case pressure etc. max I have drained is ~600ml even with a ~2.3L capacity. So it is not just about having to drain it out its the mess it makes down the firewall and under the car and rear passenger tyre from the overflow oil being blasted by screamer + air in general. Ending up on the ground cleaning the oil up and having oil on your arms when everyone else can chill and watch the other sessions gets old fast
    • Yeah - the secret learned a long time ago is that the RB likes to belch oil out the covers, and/or starve the pump because it drowns the head in oil, because the upflow of crankcase gases from piston blowby comes up through the oil drain holes in the block and prevents the oil from flowing back down. The external vents from sump are about creating an alternative path/much more XS area for gas flow to decrease the gas velocity up through the oil drains and allow the oil to get back down. So, it's not about pressure at all. It is about flows - gas up and oil down - or when it's not working, gas up and oil not going where it is supposed to after it arrives at the top, except out through the cam cover vents. And regardless of whether the catch can is vented to air or vented to the turbo inlet, it must still be vented because a sealed system would blow out the crank seals, or something equally bad.
