I have put up a while back in the RB26 turbo thread however rather than tie that thread up with chit chat, I am posting up the graphs here and am seeking some feedback.

The mods of note are:

GTSS kit

HKS extension kit (dumps)

Tomei manifold

PFC d'jetro

M's intakes

HKS racing chamber kit

Tomei poncams type B plus adjustable gears

Sard 700's

HKS fuel pump, Nismo AFR

EVC6

mines stainless front, race cat (VERY high flowing lol), Kakimoto full mega N1 cat back

Couple of things:

1. I am not sure what revs each of the speeds along the bottom represent, but it was in fourth gear and obviously where it drops off just over 215ish is obviously 8,000 rpm.

2. so it looks like it is hitting mac boost of 17 psi at about 3,500 odd rpm (never does this on the road).

3. Even tho the EVC is set on high at 18.1 psi, it never gets there, max I have seen is 17.2 psi, why would this be?

Any other comments are welcomed!

The tune is clearly a conservative and safe one.

very nice looking curves.

It's holding boost well.

Answers;

1) as mentioned. The tune takes into account that smashing the motor right to 8,000rpm is not something to encourage on a stock bottom end.

2) Boost is 17psi as you said. What it gets to on the road is always going to vary as the load on the motor will determine boost response, so different gears / up or down a hill and throttle use will effect things.

3) The EVC may be set to 18 psi but, thats a relative number to the boost you actually get and where you get that reading from. If the boost measurement is before or after the intercooler there might be a 0.5 to 1 psi actual difference of pressure in addition to the guages error margins.

I'm sure the car is very fast. Thats what matters.

I should have said that the top boost line (the one that looks like it is holding 17psi is my hand writing which I used to explain and ask why my boost did not stay there. The true boost starts at 17 ish and then dips to 15 and holds steady, this is the problem I am asking about REV210

Each actuator has a different spring rate (boost level). They can be from 5psi through to 30psi, which is the pressure that they open at. The aim is to get an actuator closest to the desired boost setting so the EBC has to do as little as possible to gain ultimate response. Some aftermarket actuators you only have to replace the springs, where others are sealed and you have to replace the entire actuator. Let me know if you need to purchase one.

    • How's your first born doing? 😛 As for now what? Time to forget about it for 12 to 18 months while your go down a totally unrelated rabbit hole... 😛
    • Fuse taps are perfectly fine to use, especially when you're adding stuff for your own car, and so long as you're being smart about it. IE, don't throw a 30amp circuit, onto a circuit that is only a small circuit. It's best to add a small circuit, to one that is already quite large. Oh, and make sure you're not going to blow the fuses that are further upstream too! I dislike their use in other applications, such as alarms, telematics/tracking devices etc, as it's far too easy for someone to unplug them and render a system useless. Those sorts of devices I go for wiring in quite secretively.
    • Fob is all cleaned up and it’s working well!! The amount of Vegemite looking sh*t that was in there is mind blowing 
    • Given it is temporary, I bought a  cheapy gauge mount (which has become enflattened) which I will screw into the existing phone mount Also a first for me; given this is a temporary install I could not think of any reason not to use one of those "add a fuse" thingies to source the battery and IGN power. I had always figured they were pretty dodgy but having a good look at them I think they are a valid option for sourcing power from an existing source without cutting 
    • Finally for now, a bit more work on the transmission temp gauge. I was wondering how Raceworks do a gauge for $100 that autometer want $500 for. No idea about the accuracy of course, but they have cut a few corners that made things hard.  First one I mentioned above, the sender is physically difficult to fit and doesn't work with their own adapters (the extra fittings I used to get the sender into a hose cost more than the whole gauge, lucky I had stuff in the shed) Second, the temp sender wires are way too short. They are shown as 2.7m on the box and I know my routing was long from navigator headlight to driver's firewall back to centre console, but I had to lengthen them by about 2m total - 2 joins in each wire. Also, same with the supplied power loom, they needed about an extra 1m to get the fuse box where I sourced power. Another join in each wire since one end wasn't supplied terminated. I know they could argue that the wires might be long enough depending on situation, but when you consider parts and particularly labour, it would be a very expensive cheap gauge if you can't do the work yourself. And, only a small issue....but it would have been nice if they remembered to tap a tread onto *both* spacers they supplied for the bracket....I haven't had to use the M4 tap often!
