I got mine $65 exchange I was gond buy some sard injector for $1300 so for almost a grand less thats another 22 cases of beer for me to drink :P

Where from?

I got the Denso's for my 30 before the dollar went to shit, haven't looked recently but probably a lot more now..

you all seem a little bit optimistic with your power out puts 210-240awkw with no after market ecu?

i can only give advise on my own experience power-fc, front mount, 3" exhaust, dump pipe, 10psi, 044 bosh fuel pump.

gives me 200awkw my now problem is airflow meter is maxed out and need a bigger one (stupid power-fc) and my injectors need replacing as there up the pointy end of there duty cycle. what i did find out is the neo will never make as much power as a 33 as the neo come with smaller injectors plain and simple need more fuel to make more power.

has anybody found out if rb25 injectors fit the rb25neo?

matt is right, when modding my stagea my power was quite low with all my mods, 125kw before the power fc was installed which shot it straight up to 200.9rwkw

To get any decent power increase (ie. >30kw) you will need tuning - at least just to keep it from running way too rich.

And to go anywhere over 180-200rwkw you'll need a bigger intercooler & possibly fuel pump.

Anywhere over 200kw will probably require a larger turbo.

I found that after around 160awkw things can start to get quite expensive.

Also note, the difference between awkw and rwkw on these cars is not that much. In my experience it works out to about 20kw difference. That difference is not a percentage, so it doesn't increase (much? at all?) as the power increases. At over 300rwkw the difference might be slightly more, but I'd guess that 330rwkw is around 300awkw.

The reason awkw is lower is due to the drivetrain losses - ie. the extra load caused from driving the front wheels. This extra load does not increase as you increase power, so therefore awkw will always be ~20kw less than rwkw.

    • Hows your intake piping? Are you still running stock? Having in the stock AFM position would mean, if the BOV was shut/venting out, it'd create the almost stalling kind of effect right // "the rich pulse behaviour" due to MAF thinking air is flowing ? But this would be better than having the bov in the stock position + MAF on/just before cross over piping right?
    • Essentially, yes. Although I wouldn't put the AFM on the crossover pipe. I'd want to put it into what amounts to the correct size tube, which is more easily done in the intercooler pipework. I bought a mount tube for card stile AFM that replaces the stock AFM - although being a cheap AliExpress knockoff, it had not flange and I had to make and weld my own. But it is the same length and diameter as the stock RB AFM, goes on my airbox, etc etc. I don't have a sick enough rig to warrant anything different, and the swap will take 5 minutes (when I finally get around to it and the injectors & the dyno tune).
    • So to summarise, the best thing to do is to move recirc to between turbo and IC, and maf on the crossover pipe. Meaning I'd need a recirc flange, drill a hole in the piping on turbo outlet area. And drill hole on crossover to fit/weld maf sensor? Either that or put the MAF on the turbo inlet right?  Is an aftermarket recirc/blowoff valve recommended? Do currently have family in Japan so could probably bring something back with maybe a cheeky lil SuperAutobacs run?
    • Yep, so far most have said that it looks like corrosion on the wall from piston not moving. Which then has probably damaged the oil rings and caused those vertical marks. The longest the engine was still after the rebuild, was the winter of 2018 - 2019, plus the boat trip to Japan. When I shipped the car, it had normal gas in the tank but before that winter pause, it had E85 in tank.  In any case, even if either one of those was the cause, it happened close to 6 years ago and the car has been driven something like 30 000kms after the fact. Again, apart from the plugs and the dip stick, there is nothing in the way the car runs that would indicate what has been going on in the engine. I am going to consult a shop and ask their opinion, what would be the best approach. I do have some access to a garage I could use to diagnose further myself, but time is very restrictive. Might end up buying another engine that could be used while this one is being remedied. Without pulling the head, it will be impossible to find out if it needs another bore, but here's to hoping a hone would suffice.  Goddamnit, I would really have preferred this not happening.  
    • Boot is going to be replaced eventually. I just wire brushed what I could and rust converted. Then painted in rust kill primer. the spoiler also got repainted and plugs replaced on the ends. The under side of the bonnet is going to be black also, currently white. But red on the top side, same colour code as the silo to begin.
