what gear was 18psi at 3000 on ya gt? My GTX is prob 3800 @ 21psi second gear internal gated on 98 :whistling:

yeah im thinkg bout the .82 external wastegate 56t on bp98 i used to have a 3071 that made 280rwkw on 18psi but wasnt a very big pull but now i have a different rb25 which is alot healthier

mate if you want an easy 300 go the kando t67

it is arguably similar in response to a 56T 3076 but is $800 delivered and actually gets about 330kw on 20psi

800 will buy you a 3076 housing... its good value and theres a massive thread on them now. please read it.

I think the T67 is a fantastic turbo but needs an external wastegate and really should have an aftermarket exhaust manifold compared to the 3076 which does not need either so puts it really in the next category up.

never really updated this. well here it was as of a few weeks ago. currently sourcing bigger gate springs and going e85 in the next week or so

Interesting on your graph - it almost looks like the 56T is actually surging around the 3000rpm mark.

My GT3040 (the 600hp one) did a similar thing, wasn't quite as severe but it also started to ramp, drop away a little, and then re-ramp again.

It was *barely* audible unless in specific conditions, but it was hurting the performance none the less.

Did you notice any surge around that point with the 56T? It's certainly not known for it!

Be interesting to compare our setups once mine is on E85 next week as our setups are similar :thumbsup: when are you seeing full boost and what size are your injectors mate?

Ive got 850cc injectors a tomei pump and a GTX3071R internal gated

Full boost in 4th is about 3200. Didnt change at all when I went e85. And I'm using nismo 740cc and Bosch 044 pump.

Nismoid; Mines the 52t. I don't notice any surging

The comparo graph though (from page 3) the blue line vs the red line.

Ah mis-read, so it was a 52T just a housing change.

The blue graph has very "suspect" dips that usually come with surge as mine was exactly the same, interesting either way :)

If ya didnt notice then might have just been tune or something.

yep.

also it seems its down about 20rwkw at the 3080rpm marker over both other set ups.

Martin did say it kept wheel spinning around the 3000rpm mark, would that do it also.?

Well wheelspin would cause those dips

But it shouldn't be turning tyres if strapped right or the ramp rate gets changed to suit

This tune was done on federal RSRs. The last one on potenza re001s that were a lot wider.

The only thing that's changed between then is the fuel and the rear tyres. And last time it had no dips. Might just go back with the potenzas and see how it goes

  • 3 weeks later...

in the interest on science, and because i love changing turbos, i recently pulled off the 52t .63 rear and put on a 56t .63 rear just to see what the difference was for the turbo coming on, with unsurprising results. The difference seems to be negligible with boost coming on 150rpm earlier back to back. same dyno etc.

next step is to go to a .82 rear and see if that will solve the surge issue. as the .63 really didnt like it when i went e85 and whacked some boost into it

will be doing this next week

    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like  
    • A locally delivered Infiniti have remote start installed but don't come with the remote start key. You need a new remote start key and they just need it programed. And this is different to making/programing a new key that just starts the car.  
    • Cheers, and cheers for sharing so much of the build and also sharing the glimpse of what turns out to bring a lot of us poor decision makers together haha.  I do recommend learning more about how to manage it, if not considering getting a  formal diagnosis.  The discussion with the psychiatrist I got my diagnosis through was quite eye opening, things I'd not even considered to be ADHD related and hadn't mentioned were things she asked about out of the blue and were common themes with people with my flavour of ADHD.   It's not a label for people who are hyperactive and ill-attentive, there's more to it than that and some of it can be much more challenging or damaging - though there are of course two sides to the thing, and a lot of the stuff we have to go through and work on to live with it make us effectively "better" at other things as well. Aside from the fact that there is some argument I could have a bit of ASD seasoning in there (came up during the diagnosis, and neurodiverse things seem to not stay as a cookie cut) I suspect you need to learn more about ADHD if you are puzzled about how hyperfocus could possibly apply.  I *do* personally use "superpower" with quotes deliberately, but it's 100% an ADHD thing due to the exact reason that lack of focus is also an ADHD thing... Loosely speaking the inattentive side of ADHD isn't the inability to focus, it's the inability to control where the focus goes.  Not being able to sleep because brain is more interested in thinking about a stupid thing I said to a girl I liked 30 years ago, not being able to focus on work because my brain is more keen on putting together the torque management strategy we're going to try out with a drag car next weekend, not being able to focus on a conversation with someone I WANT to listen to and respect because there is a flickering light in my peripheral vision.    If I could just stop work and build the torque management setup right there and then I'd not hear anything else until it was done.
