Using Beer Baron's R32 GTR as an example, as said below...

"well i can only give you a baseline atm.

this is:

R32 GTR

stock turbos

stock dumps, fronts, stock IC

3 inch exhaust

cam gears (on stock cams)

14psi boost using trust profec B spec II

Power FC (tuned by Hitman)

Apexi power intake kit

it made 253 rwkw, but i had them fiddle a little bit more for a slightly fatter midrange, ending up with 247. I thought that was pretty good going for just cat back exhaust, pods, 1 bar and a PFC + cam gears. But it's no where near enough these days"

r32 and r33 gtr turbos are plain bearing.. r34 got roller bearing cartridges.. but all of them, other than the n1 versions, were all ceramic hot side.. all the vspec are ceramic as well..

only n1 turbs are steel wheel.

    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
    • Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?
    • Generally yes but for some reason I've been ruthless this time around!  I might even need to do another tip run after the way I've finally been able to hit the delete button on shit I've stepped over, stepped around and tripped over for the past 10 years!
