Yeah man got it. Will hopefully let you know some info in the next couple of days.

Yeah I miss not having a bike. Very much looking forward to the R6

[Force Fed]

Cheers mate, hopefully they have some answers. Not keen on having to modify it but if I have to.....

[beemae30]

Will be interesting to see how it goes against the gsxr.

What is peoples take on this, just got this done 20 mins ago.

The dyno operator mentioned that its running rich, I had an inclination towards this, but wanted to confirm my suspicions. Leaving flame work everywhere was a good indicator though.

What do the standard RB25 run as far as AFR levels?

Main question really, is it reasonably safe?

Car is running 10psi of boost.

[89CAL]

is that on stock ECU?

10.5:1 is pretty rich, mine ran about 10:1 on stock ECU back in the day

around 12:1 is what you want (in short, its not as simple as 12:1 everywhere, but roughly that)

Its a good result if your running stock ECU, I made 141rwkw on 8psi with the stock ECU, hit R&R real bad on anything above that

[privatealpha]

Nah running Power FC

The dyno operator didn't sound keen about it being so rich and suggested a tune.....to the tune of $600

How 'un-safe' is it to be running as rich as this? Or is he just trying his charm on me?

Eventually I do want to run around the 12-14psi mark, already got a walbro, but first got to save up for the injectors.

[PM-R33]

Don't run 12-14psi through the stock RB25 turbo (It's the stock turbo yeah?) or you will blow out the exhaust wheel into the cat. Especially with it coming into summer.

If it is the stock turbo you don't need injectors at this stage.

That AFR on a Power FC definetely needs a tune.

[89CAL]

I ran 12psi on stock turbo for over a year without any issues, but I know others that havent been so lucky, I'd stick to 11psi.

Its not un-safe to be running 10.5:1 AFR's, quite the opposite really (unless hes checked a bunch of timing at it)

See where your power starts to drop and notice that its also where your AFR jumps to 10.5:1 This is where you will be losing your peak power unless you have exhaust/intake restrictions or some other kind of issue. How does the plot for your boost look? (If they gave you a power vs boost graph)

If not and you want to know, the dyno run should be stored in there dynos computer and you will be able to go back and get them to print one out (assuming the plotted the boost, which they should have)

[privatealpha]

It has an HKS 2535, but its a 10 yearold turbo at this stage.

I need monies (who doesnt)

[Force Fed]

luck of the draw on turbo's but it's a timebomb IMO

Yep, stupidly rich. I'd almost say too rich, it would want to flood the chambers a bit.

Nice power though!!!

Keen as f**ken mustard to see the results of yesterday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PM-R33]

Your telling me!!

[robbo_rb180]

Nope unfortunately not. Have decided I shall be parting my car out (have allready began selling one or two things). At this point in time the money invested into that car can be better used so it has to be done. Never thought this day would come to be honest lol.

And yes Chris, you can have my title

don't do it phil, you'll regret it.

[skitzs rb26 gtst]

Robbo's right Phil you will regret it and you'll never make your money back.

[Force Fed]

Parting out can make quite a lot back, I've done it before.... Time will tell

Phil - Carbon A Pillar + 2x52mm gauge pods able to get em?

[89CAL]

Yeah Phil, you'll work it out after you sell me your diffuser

[PM-R33]

don't do it phil, you'll regret it.

I'll be sad to see it go. But gotta move on. House is the priority at the moment.

Robbo's right Phil you will regret it and you'll never make your money back.

Nah definetely won't make it back. However should get a decent amount back by parting it out. I've calculated what I should roughly get back in the parts that I have put onto it alone and it's a decent amount.

The carbon A pillars might get ruined trying to take them off?

[KING87]

If ya dead set keen on going ahead with this Phil the best way without a doubt is to part it out.. But seriously have you thought this through big call lol..
