haha yeah i was a little worried about that, he said the car was slipping off the dyno but he had no one to help keep it down.

Interesting. What tyres are you using? Shouldn't be slipping when its only making 270 odd rwkw.

Dunlop 18s, but i did recently put stock suspension in and the shocks arent in the best condition. He assured me it is nothing to do with the tune as the afr and boost graphs are fine. im putting the coilovers back in after this weekend then ill get a power run and see how it goes, or ill be at the dyno day if that is still happening, interested to see what i make on a mainline.

200... I hope there was some sarcasim in that, Im sure the figure wont drop 70kw. Either way im happy with the increase in power and how the car runs from changing to E85. I know how good Willall have proven to be but at the moment i am happy to take my car to Boost Worx.

Jet's F6 went from about 420rwkw on a DD to around 360 on a mainline

I went from 270rwkw on DD to 250rwkw on a mainline. There is definately a discrepancy - that said, do the ramp rates even correlate between the two brands?

Just got my car back from BoostWorx, Made a 30kw and 50nm gain.

When does it get full boost in 4th? I have an AX53B70, full boost is at 3400rpm in 4th (no brake tricks, not up hill). Yours looks a touch higher from the dyno - but it's the road that matters.

When mine came off the dyno it took until ~3800rpm in the road to hit 15psi. I richened mine up a touch (about 5%) in the mid-range on the road and it helped ALOT with 3000-4000rpm. (98 octane).

hey guys first things first 30rwkw is on the money for a e85 changeover congrats on doing it bud its great fuel and works wonders for $ to rwkw

but no real reason why a car is allover the place on a dyno, the setting up and strapping down part is just as important as the tune imho not just for safety but for a honest as possiable result on ur progress.

now the dyno debate is a killer dont try to work it out it just is what it is .....farked lol but i will say this there are many workshops in s.a that know what there doing and then others that dont have a bloody clue. this is where willall get big props they are very particular on the strapping down process and there mainline dyno ..............ill say this very honestly ..............seems to be bang on the money for rwkw vs mph not everyone likes to used the same workshop as others and so on but r33 a mate has was tuned on e85 at willall eflex of all crap and came out with 240rwkw on 98 then a direct 270rwkw after the e85 tune, so ur seeing what u should be

yes pete the willall dyno makes the men stand up lol but had a fair idea the first d/d was down hill,

just for a larf we seem a bf f6 typhoon do 275 on one dyno then coupla hrs later 360rwkw on another .....................boggles the mind

but just remember we have a strip now so no guess work, mph is a true reflection for power.................get to the strip lads

    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
