Got Over 400kw Atw?

[bigmikespec]

Huh?

None of the offerings from -7 (N1) upto -10 (RS) have boost control issues with internal gates.

I know of at least 3 GTR's with GT-RS's (-10's) that have boost control issues.

in what regard? boost spike/creep?

mine is fine

On built RB26's with big heads Marko... not forklift engines

[R31Nismoid]

I'm with marko - none of the GT-RS's I've heard of have major issues at all.

yeah i had gtrs's on my other gtr which rb26 - boost lag was huge

I am sure most are ok, as I said these were built RB26's with a lot of head work; the solution was to modify the manifolds to external gates.

interesting...

can gtr's crack 400kw with -5s?

Yes... are the cogs in your head moving Marko?

Proof please

Proof please

Race Pace Rb29, HI Octane R34 off the top of my head

I think he wants proof that a "doings are transpiring" in Marko's head...

Is the 34 running -5's?

And they are on race fuel aren't they? Last time I was out at Russels they had drums of Sunoco or Martini or something like that

[R31Nismoid]

hehe... although Russ's car was on fuel i believe? (and it was 440-450 i think?)

Just about every moderate build makes around 380rwkw on 20-22psi...

Serious builds will get the 400, same as a 2530, few big builds have done over 400rwkw as well. Just need a bit more boost and probably a bit more attention to the head.

lol no but that's funny anyway. Marko's a nice guy! Why would you say such things?

[Deano 1]

I'm goin for 400 kw with -5s with my build due to start next year. 25psi full built motor, tomei type b cams. I've been told it's well and truly possible

[bigmikespec]

lol no but that's funny anyway. Marko's a nice guy! Why would you say such things?

He is a nice guy indeed!

That being said there are a lot of builds with -5's around the 360kW mark which is low considering with some careful head work and some more boost over 400kW is a reality. I do not see the point of 400kW (no offence to anyone) with GT-RS's (-10's) when it can be done with less turbo and better average power.

dan da man

mate - thanks again for that inpsection

that is a good point michael

-5s or gtss's belong on a rb26

-10s or gtrs's belong on a rb26/30 AIIIIIGHT!

[R31Nismoid]

Put a set of -5s on a 3ltr (what a mate is doing currently)...

It'd be like -9 response, but with 400rwkw... Now that is tasty

[Rolls]

smallest turbo possible for the power application = win
