Just remember to do it on a freeway lol, don't want anyone being arrested.

I was just gonna squirt it down the same road lol but Its better on the freeway because the road is smoother. 6krpm in 3rd gear is close to 140km/h. The car feels pretty dead coming from 1500rpm in 2nd, should be interesting to see how it goes from 3rd at 2k.

Yeah from 4900.

Dude.. It should be ON just after idle and OFF somewhere around 5... Turning it on at 5 would make your spool SUCK and your power rubbish. Please clarify the above?

& LOL @ the sarge in his army prints.

I just has a look in FC Edit and it only has VCT: then a value. For me it's 4700. Guessing it must be the switch off point as I can definitely hear my VCT solenoid click at just above idle when I give i give it a quick free rev. Can double check in sensor check later

Just for informations sake, specs on the corona.

1jz-gte

Hypergear TR44 turbo

Trust exhaust manifold

Trust 50mm wastegate

3" mandrel bent exhaust

500X300X76mm intercooler

3" intercooler piping

GFB Mach 1 BOV

2 front mounted gearbox oil coolers

Microtech LT12s and X6 igniter

X2 Excel radiator

No power steering or Air conditioning pumps

Techedge 2EO wideband o2 sensor

NOS kit (50 hp jets)

Greddy Profec B II

so it needs nos to get to 10.7? if so then what a useless post.

It did 11.8 without Nos. from that car's dyno reading:

The Nos added about 35kws. Those are old school turbos. The Fnt G3 he should be getting the same power curve without Nos.

Is this car still racing today?

Full boost at 2400 on a 2.5L, is that thanks to the stall converter?

My brother spools a 3037 .63 nearly at idle on a POS 2.6 Sigma. All thanks to a 2200rpm stall converter.

It ends up making all of 170kw at 18psi with the exhaust housing glowing white but it gives the illusion of a very different turbo.

Ahh the stall converter, applying load to the engine at idle to create some boost.

Here is a run from about 2500rpm to 6000rpm in 3rd gear on low boost(around 14psi). I know the dash isn't visible enough but this isn't something I want to try and do more than once on the road lol. My car seems to always ping now at high boost so I think the removal of the rubber hose has had an effect on the tune...

You can find FNT feed back from Random in page 87. Check index on page 1.

Any way. lots of talk about twin scroll turbine housings. At this stage I'm not convinced that they has a "major" affect but welling to do some tests.

So, we all know the air gap inside the turbine housing is the height of the inducer blade of the turbine wheel.

By placing a metal strip in between and half the gap is actually reducing the area of the gap enabling higher air velocity. To me this is another way of sacrificing top end power for down low response unless the size of the turbine wheel and housing is in a reasonably large size.

Theoretically I can archive this behavior by reducing the gap height at only 60~70% of the turbine wheel top without the divider in the center.

I've done a drawing converting single scrolled turbine housing into a twin scroll item, internal or dual gate bolt on to stock setup of course. Good thing is I can setup dual effective FNT nozzles inside that housing for even better response. I'll be doing a back to back tests using a G3 core. hopefully it’s worth the effort.

Any way, Do post up if you have any experiences or back to back tests with single to twin scroll turbine housings.

    • Hi. A little bit of an update. It maybe(hope not) looks like i would need a new tranny(it would be "maybe" a cheaper or better option anyway) So i need some info. I know i need a different propshaft(i can make custom one) LSD is not a problem cuz the engine will be still(for now) N/A RB20. So if i buy RB25DET NEO tranny...is there something else i need? I read something about push/pull type but i do not know if i need to "change" something or i can just plug n play onto my engine a go? Thanks for the advice  
    • Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance
    • My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..
    • The bushing has failed, not all that uncommon for a car of this age.  Any mechanic should be able to push in a new bushing for you, or you can probably buy the entire lower control arm, complete with bushes.
    • Could you not use "thermal" spacers to give the clearance, like the ones I used between the blower and head? That raised the manifold height by around 10-15mm Albeit the ones I used were for cathedral ports, but I assume they have similar for rectangular ports????
