Hi Nick,

This motor build will have both with minimum lag or no lag so response under full boost and response in boost. The boost we are looking at running is 64psi absolute on the turbo side and that should equate out about 34psi gauge before the throttle bodies, remember this is all calculated, we will be follwoing the laws of Joule thomson effects.

You must all have a read of the below link now you know why people run big boost rememebr when the F1 where turbo they used to run 5bar boost.

thanks, should be a real animal with that much boost + revs :worship: ... that link is a bit over my head but I'm trying

those 80's F1 engines are ridiculous, but plenty of lag there;)

I guess we shouldn't complain too much, the old Sierra Cosworths were much bigger p1gs than our GTRs

I guess the modification to your quench pads will help you run such a high static compression ratio with quite a substantial amount of boost.

What fuel will you be using, I think I missed this further back ?

The squish area has not ben touched however the clearance has been changed by closing the gap further then standard.

The car will be tuned on E85 caltex.

Below is a pic showing how the wastegate will merge into the dump pipe and act like a venturi to help remove gases from the turbine.

Also there will be an addition of a fitting fitted at the bottom of the manifold collector, that can be connected to compressed air on board and spray it in for boost at idle, a good ay to launch of the mark. I know this is all new to alot of people as its all new to me, will have to see how it all works.

I will make sure i get detailed pic of the merge i hope people can copy this method and use it to there benefit

How did you form it? I'm also impressed with the manifold merge collector. I like to see people trying new things (well old theory, but not common ground). Keep up the great work.

Here are some old pics on how the collector was made, it took 100hrs to make

Design started from this

A wooden template was made first to see if it would work

I'm pretty eager to see how the dump will terminate, because at the moment it has the makings of the best possible solution for exhausting the gases.

The interesting part will be the packaging, unless your planning on running a side pipe :P

Very very nice fabrication work.

Thank you the fab work is not easy.

Will be running a full exhaust this car will comply to RTA road rules and comply with emmisions also

Hi Bobby, can you update with photos to show how this will work?

    • Hi All, I'm based in Sydney and want to get hold of 4 stock R34 GTT wheel caps as pictured. Cheers
    • Haha im flattered! Although my poor boat is collecting dust in the garage, as it hasn’t been driven in like 6 months. I forgot the to put the trickle charger on too, so the battery is likely toast now.. I have the frenchys kit. It is fantastic. My only gripe was that the hard lines from the firewall needed some tweaking, however, this was mainly due to my specific turbo and dump combo. The weight and size packaging is much nicer too. I think I have some pics on my build thread somewhere.. my justification for the kit was more “why not” I had gone to the trouble to modernise just about every other part of the car..
    • Actually, ethanol has probably never been cheaper, on a tax free basis, than petrol. With fuel excise being what it is, and only being levied on the hydocarbon component, not the ethanol component, and ethanol for non-drinking purposes not being subject to liquor excise - E85 was cheaper, but not because the combustible liquid itself was particularly cheaper.
    • Maybe? If changing the cat to a higher flowing cat, caused the turbo to spool more quickly, and those areas of the map had not been tuned for the boost level it is now seeing, then yes you would need a re-tune. How dangerous it is running without the updated tune would depend on how far out the tune is with the now higher boost levels, how the engine protection has been setup, is the ECU compensating with a wideband sensor, is the boost control closed loop blah blah million other things... But yeah having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if changing out the cat for a high flow, in say a full 3" exhaust, made no noticeable difference at all. 
    • Ah yep. I asked a auto electrician about getting a cheap rebuilt alternator vs a new one. He also said he used to it back in the day but it ended up costing similar to what a new one would and recommended getting a new one,.
