Currently running an SR20DE with the following mods;

-Conversion to CAS and coil packs

-Wolf 3d Management

-GT28 400HP Ball bearing turbo with high mount manifold & external 45mm gate

-Trust Cooler

-Bigger radiator

-Big fuel system etc etc

Running about 10PSI of boost it put down 248RWHP, winding it up to 17PSI however with retune picked up about 2HP!

I feel there must be something holding it back, it still has a Cat converter in it, it may be melted, am thinking of removing it next week to see if this helps things, failing this can anyone suggest anything?

Cheers

usually a blocked cat will show up with very slow picking up of vacumm so blip the throttle and see how fast your vacumm needle or the 3d hand set gains...

It picks up vacuum at what appears to be a normal rate, however it is much laggier than expected...

Cooler came of a 600RWHP GTR so I dont think that is the problem.

Also, how will I know if it is running out of spark? They are the stock coil packs, which I know are good for more power than that, and have gapped the plugs right down to 0.5mm.

Anyone got any other suggestions?

Remove the exhaust restrictions

whats the max power a de has made

what sort of cam profiles are on the de

if you were running out on the ignition side youd see that on the dyno

when you pushed teh extra 7psi what was teh final afr

Exhaust restrictions will be the next step, maybe tonight.

Dont know the max power of a DE in Aus, but have seen several in US over 400HP at wheels.

Cam profiles on the DE are slightly more lift and slightly more duration than DET

AFR is 12ish no matter what boost.

    • I have done a lot of research before posting here and on gtruk forum. couldn't find anything. I have my gauges all part except the needle itself. the needle has a extremely small hole in the center, but the shaft going to the needle is extremely small and appears to have nothing to index it either. doesn't seem strong enough to simple pry or pull without damaging something. Already tried the old spoon trick on a extra triple meter I have from a gtt, but no luck. the center cap comes off easily but the hole in the meter face plate aren't big enough to get over the needle itself. figured this would be my best place to find someone who might have actually removed theirs. wonder if there is some type of small pin press tool to push the pin in while pulling the needle base off.
    • Ok...its taking me long enough to finally do this.  Feck financial security...heart disease will get me soon enough anyway So welcome to the garage..."Clem" Belsil80 has been running a 370Z in Super TT series. So after entering with him in last years Winton 300 i figured I  need my own car. Seems SAU Vic race cars need to be yellow....{tick} Reckon with enough motor i will be able to make up for the lack of talent and stay ahead of the 370Z... but the LS powered S13 and E36s are a ways up the road Aim is to have a car that doesnt stop or turn but has a bit of shed built motor with jam...maybe some cream  First step is getting this ex drift car log booked I am keeping faithful silver car. As the road-club car gets upgrades the race car wil get the sloppy seconds
    • Assuming that they will come off without damage at all.... i would have thought just pull straight up off the spindle with a something or other than can reach underneath. Have you searched for youtube vids of people doing similar on R34s or any other Nissan from the same vintage? They should be the same technique, in all likelihhood.
    • Keeping in mind that sandblasting is really aggressive on softer metals like cast alloy, and you can do damage that you might regret. For trash wheels, not a problem. For wheels with value/scarcity issues, etc.... perhaps a less aggressive media is a better choice?
    • Don't get all high and mighty. Experienced spanner wielders know exactly what effort is required to release an Oof.
