Im working Saturday too but should be home around the 4 zone id say give us a buzz and hopefully our timing is good because im curious to see what u think having driven many turbo set ups

hmmm Saturday I am out your way....

Motor is completely stock no cams mate dont know bout anymore boost im running around 21psi now so i think its fairly high for a stock motor lol it did spike up to nearly 27psi for a little while before i noticed and backed off but it didnt ping or anything so should have plenty of fuel with my Tomei pump and 850cc PE's but it did spin my 255's in 3rd gear at bout 90kph haha it felt awesome!:teehee:

just want to compare to mine in regarding to the air flow rate. Are you intending to run higher boost? do you have cam?

Gday Harry :nyaanyaa: yeah it did fix it mate CHEERS! found some english instructions now so im bout to go have a play with the controller because its still running high for example its set at 15psi on the controller now but goes up to 19-20psi but its stable and not spiking like it used to so i think its to do with the boost offset settings or the likes but ill be back on soon when i have play and take her for a squirt :cheers:

Did gravity fix your EVC or what Mick?

You never got back to me with a full result :rolleyes:

with cams it will bring your boost on earlier and give you atleast 10kw everywhere. Yeah, i've been running 20psi with gcg for the last 5 years and now with the gtx i'm running 23psi on the stocker. Finger cross! lucky i don't drive alot. Maybe 255-275 semi slick time for you!! :thumbsup:

So what is your rpm when you hit 20psi?

Haha yeah i dont drive mine much either ive had my car for 12 months now and done about 2500-3000kms. In second gear its bout 4000rpm and it really starts to haul ass all the way to 7500rpm 3rd is probably around 3700rpm maybe slightly less :whistling: been seriously thinking about poncams to help with lag because after being used to the 200kw and stock turbo response the lag was really noticable even though it drove much nicer off boost though i must say! But when it comes on now my smile is probably 2 inches wider now its simply alot of fun to drive now. :banana: So if i could get it boosting earlier it wouldnt really be that far off stock response that would be UNREAL!

Believe it or not my car doesnt really spin wheels mate even in 1st gear when you put your foot down! it just hooks up its awesome! When my boost controller settings are sweet ill probably put 25psi into her briefly and see how that feels or get an E85 tune which i initially was gunna do :thumbsup: i love it!

Mate that is a sight better than what mine did the other night and ever since I put it down in 3rd. It slipped the clutch and smashed the limiter as soon as it came on boost in 3rd. Even driving from no boost to full boost it starts to slip.

You must be stoked with your car now, I know I am with mine (apart from the clutch) My grin is just like yours biggrin.gif

Thats bit of a bummer mate but once your clutch is sorted the fun will begin good luck with it!:thumbsup:

Yeah i am stoked with it but she only fried 3rd when my boost hit 26.6psi haha on 21psi it just sits down and boogies i love it!

My blitz gauge only goes to 1.5 bar and i watched the needle fly straight to the bump stop! the motor didnt make any noises it shouldnt but i backed off anyways lol!

The smile is what its all about mate and if your smile is like mine you are very much a happy man too :cheers:

More lift + more duration = less gas velocity at low revs

So even if the actual RPM that max boost is reached is lower, the car will have less power off boost

Something that does help is VCT, don't think it brings on boost any earlier but gives it more off boost pull.

You could do something funky with retarding the ignition timing massively as that will get you boost in idle, but you'd want it switch controlled otherwise it will be horrible to drive and f**k you economy.

Well i dont want it any doughier off boost so that rules cams out for me! It feels good the way it is and once my tune is finished it will be better!:merli:

My car is a 97 33 so itd have vct yeah? I bought HKS cam gears and timing belt which arent installed is there any benefits to installing them apart from them looking pretty in my engine bay??pinch.gif

Its not as simple as doing this, you wont make boost on idle, the engine just isn't producing enough exhaust gas just sitting there. Rally cars that have anti-lag require a fair amount of revs and basically misfire certain cylinders and play with fuel and timing. It's not real great for the engine either I dont think but they throw a new engine at the car every rally

All R33 GTS-t's have VCT

I thought the anti lag set ups worked by basically pumping fuel into the exhaust manifold? I guess thats just probably 1 of the set ups they have played around with :blink:

    • My take on gg2 48mm, 54mm, 58mm, and 62mm compressor map for same size compressor vs gg1 : All gg2 only outflow gg1 above 20 psi. As all g gen 2 surge line at lower left of comp map move to the right, all gg2 sacrifice spool vs same size gg1, surge line move to the right worst for 54mm gg2. So for same size compressor if you want best response, use gg1, if you want max hp at >20psi use gg2 but you will be laggier vs same size gg1. Max compressor efficiency drops to max 75% on all gg2 vs max 76%-80% of same size gg1. Iirc lower efficiency means hotter iat less dense air so lower hp at same operating point of comp map. Also curious why gg2 is mapped to lower max rpm vs same size gg1 (only 48mm size both gg1 gg2 mapped to same rpm) : 54mm gg1 165,000 rpm  vs  gg2 160,000 rpm. 58mm gg1 150,000 rpm vs gg2 140,000rpm. 62mm gg1 145,000 rpm vs gg2 140,000 rpm. If gg2 can safely spin to gg1 rpm then they can flow a bit more than as mapped. Good thing that all gg 2 interchange compressor and turbine housings with same size gg 1. So gg1 owners can buy gg2 chra only if planning to boost >20psi.
    • My stuff is all with Shannon's, granted, I don't really have imports I'm driving on the road, however, I've had multiple cars at the same time with them. Presently we have the Landcruiser on laid up cover, Sarah's Kluger on full cover, and the house insured. About 18 months ago Sarah wrote her Subaru Liberty GTB off, insured with Shannon's, and the payout, and buy back of the wreck was super quick. In 2020 we had the VF Commodore totalled in a major hailstorm. Storm was on the Saturday, I called on the Sunday and lodged it, vehicle was towed on Tuesday night, assessment team called on Wednesday to say it was a total loss and get payout details, money was in the bank on Thursday morning. Have had a few other claims both at fault, and not at fault, over the years, and never had an issue with them.   Funnily enough, they're also the cheapest insurer I find for things like Sarah's Kluger.   I will say I'm less impressed dealing with them lately around "the experience", as a lot of their staff that you deal with aren't car enthusiasts. Shannon's has a much more main stream feel ever since they decided to become "big corporate", laid a heap of staff off, and then hired a bunch of non enthusiasts. At the same time they've been making a push to be less "call us and we'll personally have someone who cares help" to "hey, this computer can do stuff for you" and are trying to get more square pegs to fit round holes. (That's just the vibe I get from them). Again, have had no issues with claims with them, but get a bit of a "less personal" feel from them.
    • A thing I wasn’t happy with with enthusiast was during the initial phone call they told me they’d insure it for 130k but needed photos.   I then sent them photos and they told me $80k as there were other cars either similar modifications available for around that price, I told them to send me the links to said cars so that I can buy them. i then sent the modification list with prices of the parts (no labor) and the price then came to 115k, which is still shy of the 130 that was agreed in the initial phone call 
    • Ask me a bit later this week before payday
    • I agree that delayed payment probably isn't the most suitable solution. It seems a solid complete transaction would be best. As I wouldn't be using this sale as a line of credit that would typically earn interest, we can probably arrange a much cleaner single transaction deal. I can do $92.52 today. Would you prefer EFT, or Cash on Pickup?  😛
