Tommy Kaira RL Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 So the latest with my car is that I dont think its the turbos. After finding some long fingers and taking more pipe work off they spin fine with no play. The swirl marks that I saw from down the mirror where just fine oil and dust. Going back to the cat it wasn't collapsed but it has a bit of carbon build up in it. Would this cause a huge restriction. It also has a blue tinge to it so it suggests its getting hot. After the shudder the exhaust note was quieter. If I had blown a turbo I would of thought I wouldn't get any boost? Im still getting 10 out of the 20 that it was set to. Plenty of pressure on the wastegate. Ive checked all pipework and boost hoses. Car still starts and drives ok it just wont get the boost it used too. Have I missed something before I put it all back together? Or do I need to pull more apart. I havent checked the back of turbos they are N1s so I would think the wheel is still there.

J - Rad Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Boost leaking from somewhere like cooler pipe or something? Pretty sure you would know if you shat a wheel out, my guess would be it'd be a big backfire or similar.

Nightcrawler Posted June 25, 2011 Author Share Posted June 25, 2011 If I were you Brad I would take the GTR for a quick burn (very late at night) with the exhaust and cats removed and see if it will make 20psi. If it does, then it rules out the cats or collapsed exhaust out of the equation.

Tommy Kaira RL Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 I just worked out the cause to my boost problem. It was a half blocked cat. There was a fair bit of carbon build up. It was very black inside. The cat should be a nice brown colour inside from the carbon being burnt off. Anway did the cowboy thing and bashed it out. Now the car boosts even better than before. Since were talking about tunes. Should I get my car tuned again? Only because last time it would of had a part blocked cat. And now it flows better. I always thought running N1s @ 20psi would get more than 265awkw.
