Even if it is too small you surely should be able to get it to hold flat boost with an appropriate boost controller setup if using an external gate?

That involves using an 'appropriately' sized wastegate more than it does a method of boost control.

Those sorts of setups DO work, like running a .63 rear end on a real 3076 (3037 56t). You can do it and it will make the power but in actual fact a good wastegate on such a setup is a bandaid fix for something that needs a bigger housing. Use of stuff like E85 is also good for ping resistance ETC, which is what you need when heat from the backed up exhaust housing makes its way into the cylinder.

Consider this: You can have a massive compressor on a tiny turbine, the turbine will accept X amount of flow to reach Y shaft speed. There is a V max for the compressor too, once Y surpases the Vmax of the compressor you are running outside of the compressor map. The big wastegate is bleeding off the motors flowpath to cap off the amount of exhaust gas hitting the turbine and increasing the shaft speed.

So the small exhaust housing makes you need less X to acheive Y, then you hit Xs maximum and X becomes a constant from the compressor side impacted by revs.

Anyway need to go home, enough theorising for one day.

NB 8cm housings work on SR20's which arent naturally big gulping motors.

I wouldn't say that. My mates gemmi put out 200 rwhp at only 12.5 psi. The engine is newly built and will be eventually be wound up to over 30 psi.

I can make 500kw with a megasquirt as well, doesn't mean it is a good ecu.

power != features OR a good software/hardware package

the fact is a microtech has a massive lack of features and shitty tuning software, it is a huge downgrade on a stock ecu with just simple remaps, using a nistune makes it infintely better than a microtech.

you can get them to work fine with air-con, i had one on my WRX in 1999 with a Gt30 etc , before they did flash tunes, I had one on my r31 with air-con, both drove like stock actually

a good tuner can get a decent result from them

cheers

A good tuner can make anything work, eg a carby blow through setup, once again it doesn't make it a good setup. If you just stuck with the stock ecu and remapped it you'd have a much better solution, if you went nistune for $400 you'd be infinitely better off.

Why are you flogging a dead horse? i'm of to put nistune on my R31 so it idles like a concrete mixer..lol, because it has trouble even getting the smallest hydraulic cams to idle nice with big injectors on vl's or R31's.

When it comes to ECU's, some look crap on paper and in real life work, and some look great on paper and aren't that great, and despite what YOU might think, thats the way it is.....

Yes and microtech look crap on paper and work pretty average as well. Nistune etc have more features and also work much better.

You said it is a step backwards from a stock ecu. It isn't.

Hi guys.

I am writing to you from far away Russia.

I wanted to consult on the turbine .... I hope for your help .... here in Russia we can say qualified no ....

The car I Nissan Skyline R33 RB25det transmission mechanic 1995 release ...

All specs are great except for the turbine ........

In search of turbines ... saw this here

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Nissan-RB20-RB25DET-OBX-T67-25G-Turbo-Manifold-Combo-/160655839135?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2567d58f9f

What can you say about her??

Then I saw the turbine T67-25G Kinugawa ... and in search of information about her came across your forum .....

Friends please tell us all about this turbine ... Good?? Is not broken?? It is worth taking??

Ps

Read the whole subject is difficult for me because I own Angliskim bad language and a great chat through an interpreter translate the posts ... I'm sorry for my bad anglisky .... hope for your help

Specs my car:

Now stock turbo

Power FC+ comander ECU (lies at home)

Greddy intercooller

oil-cooller

Greddy Profec B Spec II

Exhaust Hks super drager + frontpipe

Z32 AFM (lies at home)

and so on trifles

Edited by LINE26

Has been sitting there for weeks collecting dust, my fabricator dogged me, then he turned up 2 days ago and bent up the main roll cage hoop then left, now he lost part of his finger working on the lathe at his.

Im learning to tig at the moment so i can do my own alloy work. I have no issue's with a mig and mild/stainless.

He has modded the cooler so its a return flow, so all piping will be on the turbo side. He ordered all 3inch from memory even though thats not wat i wanted.

No harm in big cooler piping. More volume after the cooler will result in a denser charge and more oxygen in every gulp id say.

Hurry up and show me what that turbo can do lol

    • Also, the cause of fuel spills and smells from the top of the tank is almost always the rubber hoses that are up there, not the tank seal.
    • 1. No, as you say you can remove the connectors and fuel lines. Before you do make sure you remove fuel pump fuse and crank the starter a few times to release pressure, and also loosen the fuel cap (just in case the tank is slightly pressurised) as it will pump out the lines otherwise 2. Not necessary but you are right, if it is the factory pump it is at risk of failing after 25 years....Changing it is not hard but potentially not trivial as you have to make sure you have the right pickup/sock for the pump to suit the tank, need to make wiring connections (crimped butt connectors would be fine) and have to mount/adapt the new pump in the right place in the cradle. Not impossible but don't start the job if you aren't confident. Also, the plastic nut that holds that seal in place can be really hard to remove. If you don't have a fuel nut removal tool it generally requires a big screwdriver or similar to bash the ring around a few times before you can get it by hand. Also the fuel lines can be very sticky on the tank lid fittings, hose removal pliers can help or if not twist the hose on the fitting (eg with linesperson's pliers) to break the seal before you try and remove it. Finally, mark the feed and return hoses so you don't put them on backwards and seal them with an m8 bolt to stop crap getting into the lines while working. Add a little grease in the threads of the plastic lid when you go to do it back up as a gift to your future self, and make sure you put it on evenly/not cross threaded.  Having said all that, most likely the lid just needs to be either tightened or removed and put back on without being cross threaded...the seal itself is usually pretty good.
    • Another weekend and another project I have questions about.... I bought a fuel tank sender O ring to install on the car because I'm quite sus on what I've got now.  1. No "whooosh" sound when opening fuel cap 2. If I fill up full tank, there will be a small leak under the car and it comes from the top of the fuel tank, dripping along the side. Stops after a short while 3. Hot days = 50/50 chance to get high as a kite inside the cabin if the car was in the sun for too long This is what I bought: https://www.amayama.com/en/part/nissan/1734279900 My plan was to just replace the O ring but I've got some questions: 1. Does the whole fuel pump assembly need to come out for me to replace the O ring?         Or, could I unplug all the connectors and fuel lines at the top, take off the twisty part (17343) and put in the O ring from the top?  2. Is it a very common thing for everyone to just change the pump whenever doing this?        I see the Walbro 255 gets thrown in a lot but I've got no issues with my pump so far. When I did the tune, I asked the guy to check my fuel pressure and he said there were no issues too. But is it just a good idea to change to the 255 anyway as the old unit may have been in there for so long? The 255 seems to be a direct fit for GTT (I got no soldering iron)  
    • Normal speedtek issues, bin it and go cdoo# or 8hp. So many issues with these gearsets, a mate went through 3 rebuilds and multiple parts with heat, bearing and vibration issues.  
    • I wouldn't go near them, they are rubber seals for a reason. Just chuck new cam cover seals, half moons and the spacers for the screws every decade or two. I add a really thin layer of silicone too and it seems to hold together OK
