How Much Can A Factory R33 Gtst Airbox Hande?

[Rav3nNZ]

Sorry if this has been asked before but ive just had enough of my HKS mushroom filter, just way too noisy on standard turbo.

So ive gone and bought a 2nd hand factory airbox and a Greddy highflow filter, waay more response but flat out seems a little less. maybe need to reset ecu??? will do tonight anyway.

Now my mate said if i upgrade the turbo or want anymore power i NEED a pod and cant have standard airbox.

Is this true?

Ive heard the GTR factorys can handle 300kw or so but dont no about the gtst's

Its a series II 40th anniversary and im running 13psi, have full turboback exhaust and wanting to do alot more.

Any help is appreciated thanks

Hmm. Experience lately seems to be pointing to. "Watch out for what they mate reckons".

Whilst I don't know the limit of the factory airbox I have heard of several people using them with aftermarket turbos.

(Lmao including myself actually but I haven't been retuned yet to give final power figure).

How much power are you running?? Or what are your final goals for a power figure?? Either way a poorly setup Pod filter aint gonna be any better then factory airbox anyway without even considering how damn noisy they can be. The day I swapped from Apexi Pod back to factory airbox (with K&N panel) was a very good day.

Yeh i know what you mean ay! pods on factory turbo sound soo bad i was considering selling my car as it just wasnt fun to drive around off boost, yes it was annoying me that much!

I bought a factory airbox off trademe and an greddy filter and it sounds sooooooooo good!!! fell in love all over again.

I think its around 170-180rwkw but havnt had it dyno tuned.

It goes bloody well an gets to 100 in around 5 - 5.5 secs.
