I have a r33 GTS-25T Auto with 10.5 psi, air filter and blitz DD bov, it has now come to the time where i need that bit more and i was thinking turbo back including dump pipe 3inch. iam new to this "modifications" scene so i come to ask for all you skyline drivers wisdom...Will there be a noticable change in performance? if so where at? top end? bottom end?i have also heard that i can run round 12psi with this mod.

ps. Anyone know any places where i can go that do a good job? or of any good prices?

ok exhausts are pretty straight forward as far as it all goes. Your main consideration should be noise and price.

Normally its one of the first things people do as it allows the later mods to really show through.

The bigger the exhaust the louder it tends to be (althought exceptions may occur).

I'm running an r33 s1 gtst and the first thing i did was get the zorst upgraded to 3 inch all the way from the turbo (inc dump pipe) and whack on a 3inch tip. It wont really effect how much boost you can run instead it effects how it responds to boost if that makes sense.

As for power, well the engine should feel less limited through the entire range.

Next question... aftermarket or custom??

I side with custom as to me a tube is a tube and where as mandral bends etc are good, after market mandral bends are the same as custom mandral bends if of good quality, so why spends a whole pile of extra cash. All your looking for is the shortest least restrictive way out for the exhaust.

My exhaust cost me 1300 from western mufflers in fairfield syd, there pretty good in my eyes. By bro in law uses them to build his drag cars exhausts aswell, they know what they're doing, with the added bonus that the owner talks like dr nick from the simpsons. Also in my eyes it has a nice note and isnt too loud

For the time being i'd worry less about upping boost and more about prepping the engine so that when you do up the boost the engines ready for it.

Next i'm gonna do the ecu then boost controller then fmic. I'll replace my BOV once boost gets high enough that i have to, otherwise its just cop bait and noise.

    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
