Yep. No way to keep boost high enough on top end without changing duty cycle throughout rpm. Mine is almost linear on duty cycle for rpms after it onsets.

You mean it increases linearly, not you have a flat duty cycle ?

Is yours IWG ?

Yes IWG. And yes increases pretty much linearly.

I posted a log on here not far back. If you download the haltech datalog viewer you can see my output duty cycle on the logs under "boost control output" (which is controlled by open loop) and also my "base duty cycle" (which is my start point before controls - basically my duty cycle map). Just double click those to populate the charts and add the RPM THE same way to see what mine is doing on the high boost IWG BW actuator set at 6 turns from base.

Found it. White line is boost control output. Notice it's 100% while it spools until it hits my commanded boost number to start open loop control. You can see its pretty linear with RPM to maintain my 18 or so psi boost.

got a turbosmart dual port locally. It wouldn't hold boost. So changed EBC to one which can have different duties at different rpm but apparently made no difference on the dyno. Pretty much I don't think tuner likes the turbo :blink:.

VFregal - which turbosmart IWG spring and how much preload are you using?  More than likely you need more springs in the IWG actuator..

Here is Nicks sheet. 8.9:1, RB 30, 8374 1.05, 260 poncams. Timing on the gears is +1 intake, 0 exhaust. Boost is 25 through the middle and purposely pulled back to 23 psi up top. It's also been held back a tad through the middle. There is definitely more left in this but a few kms needs to be put on it, see what Nick wants and a few touch ups/"customisation" made.

EASILY on 500 RPM earlier on than -5's as a comparison. I won't repeat myself with how it drives, I'll sound like a broken record.

the tuner tried advancing the intake cam to +6 degrees on the intake and all it did was come on SO early it introduced surge. It's not very often of the cam timing having to be relaxed because the turbo is on TOO early! He said this combo on the street would be VERY hard to find. It is the most responsive and torquey GTR he has ever tuned. Maybe he hasn't tuned a stroker/-5 combo ;). He also said if the owner wanted he would like to see a 9180 on it and advance the cam a bit and it wouldn't give away too much.

The Dyno sheet doesn't give any real world indication of how well this thing drives!

So more power down low, extra 40 up high, better transient, and smoother delivery with more left in it. Standard position low mount twins in the bin, EFR for the win!

^^^^ Please tell me you have some 17-18 psi data!?

I'm assuming E85? I'm glad to start seeing other "real" numbers. I mean this is 620 whp on 25 or so PSI. I am hoping to see 550 whp on my car at the same boost on the 2.75L. I'd love to compare logs to this thing on the street to see how far I have to go.

Also I'm on the Poncam A's (260 and 256 ex) and found that closest to 0-0 made the best results for me too. I tried getting them closer together and it felt "stumpy" in the mid range.

Excellent results!

Looks really good. Awesome results. I don't know much about RB30's. How do you think this would compare to a 26/7/8 RB motor instead?

Obviously things like engine compression, cam choice/settings, exhaust size etc would play a part in the response. But lets say a 2.8L (because building a 2.7L is silly lol) would probably be around 2-300rpm laggier worst case scenario i would think ?

Yeah thats E85. No logs as the car is still in the shop man lol. 

Your car runs a 3" exhaust doesn't it? If so i honestly think that would be hurting your response a bit and will probably become alot more of an issue when u really start looking to put some more boost into it ?

3.5" minimum would probably help things quite a bit. 

We will try getting some vids up on the weekend when we go for a blast ?

Hi Geoff,

19 psi spring combination and about 4 or 5 turns preload. I'd like to try out my more preload but tuner was against it saying it wont make any difference.
I am going to take the car elsewhere it's just waiting on a new gearbox at the moment. Interested on your thoughts on spring size for target boost pressure.

Cheers

why isn't everyone that runs external gates or a dual port actuator for IWG using a 4 port boost solenoid?

seems like the obvious choice to me. at 100% duty you KNOW the gate is clamped shut.

so boost held at 23-25 psi at the moment due to wanting to run the engine in more?

I just dropped mine off to the tuner this morning. Told him to whack 30psi in to the stock motor haha

Engine is run in. Boost is currently held back as the speed sensor isn't operating currently so he's kinda capping it there for safety currently. He believes its pretty close to being all in as the most he has seen a 8374 make on his dyno is 480kw i believe he said.

interesting. fairly big difference in power on different dynos. ive seen them make 550kw on a dyno.

I'm not sure they would max out on 25psi though. I know of a setup running 32-34 and it made more n more power with every psi up to around 34 psi.

Yeah but it all comes down to engine efficiency.

It's good to see Nick's car with some decent compression rather than the low compression rb's designed for 50 pounds of boost we normally see from Sydney).

yes i do recall this particular engine was very low comp.

On that angle, anyone know a supplier of those in Australia?

what do you mean? it's just a 4 port MAC valve. (46A-AA1-JDBA-1BAA)

they're 100ish bucks delivered on ebay.

    • FWIW a lot of the local owners that do a big build tend to have cars that are perpetually broken. 
    • I just got this system but haven’t installed yet I got a Moroso sealed box (defect reasons) which will be set up same as their pic The quality is high grade, the correspondence I had with the owner (former head designer for Rockford Fosgate) was unbelievable, guiding me with what I needed. Even told me not to buy some things as it could be sorted in a different way at his loss. Just a bit of a bite with the exchange rate and don’t purchase gear in 1 hit that goes over $1,000 au, lol I forgot!  
    • Thanks mate for that reply. Very helpful.    it’s a 2022 400R so would most likely lose those features as you say.     I did a quick compare of a rv37 nav and heading for sale in Japan to q50 model. I’ll pop pics below. Seems  Japan spec head into top, nav unit second below it   below pic Q50 aud delivered     differences seem to be Aus delivered has a different plug top left hand side of head unit- not sure what and where it goes.   and nav unit Japanese tv37 had an extra plug put    Again I’m really not sure what each of these differences mean!       the actual plugs on a v37 and q50 screens look identical on both screens… pics below for comparing. (One screen was is a us delivered one) but should be same gps signals etc as Australia.    If it were as simple as swapping a nav unit from q50 aud delivered im interested -just want to figure out what the missing plug is for before spending big $ on a second hand part for it to not work, and I guess with the head unit, if the band expander does the job (I got a 20mHz so should get the range I’m after) so should narrow my issue down to nav unit only.  I’d love to know what the extra cable on rv37 does and if I eliminate that part what it’ll do to the setup,    and also, if I can figure out what that head unit plug difference is, what does that cable do and where does it got can it be altered or re-plugged?! Excuse my ignorance what is ACP/AA, what does that stand for? (Apple car play? Android air play)? so If I swapped head units to save using a band expander, I’d likely lose those better features to have an oem Unit operational. Better to use a band expander and retain AirPlay options and newer version of head unit     provably best to band expand it, and focus on the nav unit. th isn’t  a big deal/ would be cool to have it working  from what I can tel we use a PAL Signal and Japan uses a NTSC signal  I don’t know if there’s a co better or if the screen only reads NTSC, or if it’s the tv module that needs replacing… no big deal don’t need it but more of a curiosity thing on that!   Thanks for the info re tyre sensors, helpful and great to know.  I was reading the online manual off Japan website and it seemed to make it sound more confusing than it is  I guess a rim replacement would require the sensors to be moved to a new rim to carry that option over?!     Thanks for the info regarding diagnostic mode. I appreciate your help mate. Trying to brainstorm here to find a solution to get as much gadgets as I can working! I plan to get my local Nissan tech to have a look too who used to be at an Infiniti dealer back in the day to see if any thing they have or idea can find a soliton. But hoping anyone here has gone down the same route to make life easier!!   i guess identifying the cable/plug differences and what they do would be a great way of finding out if the units are transferable    thanks again 
    • No idea about the remote start part. If the V37 nav is anything like other Nissan JDM vehicles, you can't get the factory Japanese nav working in australia, a card from a different car almost certainly won't work, those cards are usually matched to the serial number of the DCU.  You could be possibly swap out the components from a AuDM Q50 to get it working, but if this is a new model (2021+) 400R, then you will lose the newer features like ACP/AA.  That said, if you have ACP/AA, just use google maps.. I assume a band expander would be required to get the local radio stations, but don't forget the Japanese FM band is narrower than ours, so you still might not be able to receive all Australian stations. I can't see any reason the tyre pressure sensors won't work here, there is the sensor unit inside the rim and the receiver nearby in the wheel well.  I have never had to change the batteries on my 2015 Q50, so I assume they last quite a while.  A straight battery change shouldn't need them to be re-registered as they are the same unit, that should only be required if you replace a sensor with a new one.   Word of warning, if you ever go into the 'secret' diagnostics mode on the main screen, DO NOT EVER do a 'reset' in this menu, it will erase all of your model specific data in the DCU and you will need a trip to a dealer to re-program it all, which would be particularly painful being an import.  This applies to the AuDM Q50 too.
    • There is a known issue with the mix door motor on the Q50 which causes these symptoms, not sure if it is common on the Y51 though.
