and the bay and where ever else i got but any way im still young^^

So I take it you are from Adelaide? since it looks as though it's got SA number plates also.

You say your young, but where abouts have you run an 11 second quater? We haven't had a running 1/4 mile track anywhere near Adelaide for around 5 years. Plus 250kw on a standard turbo (somehow??) in a boat like R33 doesnt really add up to an 11second pass.

I have a book about how to tune i read it and just add some thing else and still runin stock turbo :) took all stuff out of my boot u can do an 11 sec pass with 200rwkw all really need is a good set up

Ok, the "book" you are reffering to is the issue of HPI when they talk about doing an 11 second pass on a RB25 Skyline and how to achieve it.

First thing's first, if you are running the stock turbo with a great tune, good amount of boost and everything else is up to scratch you will be running around 200rwkw if your lucky.

Depending on your mods (ie if your car doesnt have a tune you have no hope) you could be anywhere from 170-200rwkw. So your figure of 250rwkw is WAY out.

Second that HPI issue was a bit missleading (probably possible, but very few cars perfectly setup can do such a thing, way to many variables), most stock turbo

skylines with a tune and good setup crack into 13 second passes. Yours would most likely would be in the 14's, so once again, way off 11 seconds champ.

Not trying to hang shit on you mate, just trying to educate you a bit so you don't go around saying stupid things.

There is not 38 grands worth of car there

I also know what a stock turbo'd R33 is capable of and it definently not 250rwkw and most definently not an 11second 1/4

    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
    • This makes sense. I have 2 so I'll just choose the least favourable child to perform the task.  If all turns to shit, I've still got a spare.  Win-win!
