no it didnt

sorry, was 208, just checked dyno sheet.

50 psi base pressure, + 15psi boost = 65psi .. should give it abit more fuel..?

in saying that, i should be able to work out where im at with the below. theres also an article done by autospeed regarding flow rates vs pressure, basically showing that pressure increases = quite small increases in flow.. so what are stock injectors good roughly? i need to find a maximum safe setting for base pressure. http://autospeed.co.nz/cms/title_Boosting-...86/article.html

stole this from another forum:

The flow is supposed to increase according to the following formula.

F2=F1 x SQRT (P2/P1)

So, assume you have 270cc/min injectors at 36 psi pressure difference, then, if you increase fuel pressure to 42 psi, the resulting flow will be:

F2=270 x SQRT (42/36) = 292cc/min

This formula will work with pressure difference, have in mind that there is always some pressure present at the intake manifold, and it needs to be substracted from the fuel rail pressure in order to obtain the pressure difference.

Like Mcquirk said, doubling fuel pressure will lead to 1.4 times the flow, for 270cc injectors, that is some 380cc/min. BUT, the problem now will be the fuel pump, which likely won't give you the necessary flow at such a high pressure, so, it's much better to install larger injectors and work them near their test pressure.

Dont wind it up too high, the walbros loose heaps of flow when the pressure is wound up, they only flow 500hp worth of fuel at about 40 psi, give it 70 psi, and they flow about 350hp. TBH kkr turbos dont have a great rap in regards to power vs boost needed vs lag

yeah i realise theyre shit turbos but i got it cheap. ill get the internal as tight as possible and with electronic boost control can only do me best to avoid lag / boost threshold, otherwise no worries just to drive around it.

KKR430, around i think 230rwkw is about the most anyone has made.

on the hub dyno it'll be higher, probably 240-250 (same as your 208 with factory turbo)

Plenty of results in the RB25 dyno sticky thread.

Sounds like a happy dyno that turbo will not make that power at 14psi

ive done the same turbo on another dynapack that time by st hitec in auckland with a engine thatd done 230k's, did 242rwkw, power fc, larger injectors. this tune was done by glenn suckling who has the 1600hp gtr running 7's.. even if it is abit 'happy' it gives an indication of what they can do. they are cars in the 260kw range with these turbos. an 2 degrees timing was the difference between 233rwkw and 256rwkw. a/f's are hovering around 12 .

moral of story;

kkr430 / dsr430 turbos while not the best with their shitty internal wastegates that you need to load alot of preload on and the fact the interal barely opens, are decent turbos on 25's and you can get away with standard injectors with a fuel reg.

    • Sorry for resurrecting an oldish thread Not much has happened in the past year since the last update. The car did another 1000 miles or so and failed the MOT for the first time in October (failed on tyres which had been advised for a couple of years) In October the car got put up for sale and was removed in November due to no interest, being so close to christmas it was to be expected. The roads were dry in February so I decided to tax it early and get the new tyres fitted.   Fast forward to April, I got someone in to give the car a good clean after sitting for the winter.                                 The car got re-advertised and today (Saturday 3rd May) the car sold. The new owner is planning a GTR conversion at some point and a respray in the same pearl white. It's bitter sweet, it's a shame to have the car sit there for half the year and then only do 1000 miles. The kids are growing too quick and space in the back is getting limited. It's been a great 6.5 years of ownership
    • And if you want more power, more reliably, and cheaper, go get the Aussie RB... The 4L Barra and put that in instead.
    • No cats will keep discolouring the rear bar. Sends white paint a weird yellow stain. Cut and polish normally gets it out, but you'll be doing that every fortnight I found.
    • Both heads will be equally reliable or unreliable depending on what you do to them.  Stock the RB26 head will flow more. You have access to the stock intake ITB manifold on the RB26 cheaply which flows really well(1000hp+).   Arguably more aftermarket support for RB26, though in Aus we love our RB30 SOHC heads too.    The only downsides to the RB26 head is if you have a VL commodore and want to keep the SOHC look.  Where you may have an issue is drilling out the rb30 block for the bigger head studs but if you are building a big power motor you'd probably put bigger studs on the SOHC head too.  This is just about finding a good machine shop, sometimes easier said than done.  RB30 head worked can make big power just like a Rb26 head, so really it actually more comes down to what your preference is for your car.  People now even making billet versions of both.
    • 2630s work perfectly well. There is something to be said for just using the 30 head, as it saves all the pain of the conversion, still makes tons of power, still sounds cool, etc etc. 2630 will obviously make more power again, but the differences are not stupidly big. It really depends on whether you're racing for sheep stations or not. If it's dead serious, then it's a 26 head. If it's just for fun, it could go either way. But the 26 head and the effort to get it set up, etc etc, is part of the fun.
