And this is probably close to as responsive as possible for the power made on a R34 GTT factory RB25det Neo, running newly developed ATR43SAT BB internally gated bolton turbo on P98 fuel. 317rwkws @21psi, 20psi @ 3550RPM.

Why do most of the dyno grahs show power fall over at the top end?

Because most people run along the edge of the compressor efficiency curve. This means they get max turbo airflow in the midrange and also in the top end. If you get similar airflow at 5000rpm as you do at 8000rpm then this means reduced torque as you are sharing the same air over more combustion events, reduced torque means reduced power.

Most factory turbo cars don't smash the boost in the midrange or max the turbo out, hence they can hold flat torque to redline. If they didn't then you'd see the typical huge midrange torque and dropping off at redline.

Tao, what is the expected results on an RB25DET? Considering swapping my turbo out for a smaller one for less lag.

If I drop the exhaust or run external gate, top end torque curve would be more flat. For a good turbo configuration on a good internally gated setup. On pump fuel, The torque curve is usually an umbralla shape.

ill be running the non bb version of the 43sat iwg on my car, hoping to tune it next weekend yet that will depend if a part i ordered tonight gets here in time, if it doesnt then whatever day it gets here ill throw it on my dyno and see how it goes. stock rb25, 3"tbe, fmic, so that should give you a better idea if you can wait a week or two

    • Hey guys, Just thought it might be of interest to owners of the RB25 det NEO motor, that awesomeness Nitto are in the late process to produce an engine gasket kit by end of Jan 25.  I think obviously there will be an 25det kit too. cheers, Ian
    • He is around but doesn’t really do automotive stuff anymore, mainly does commercial work now 
    • Shortly after I do the usual full exhaust/ fmic/fuel pump/ R33 turbo and still get flogged at the lights by i30Ns
    • Is Chris from Craved Coatings still around? He is an ex SAU guy and did great powder coating (back in the day at least)
    • Bumping this thread yet again, has anyone ever tried putting yet another vacuum regulating valve on the hose that goes between the turbo inlet? Something local owners have mentioned is the Radium breather pipes de-restrict the valve cover but it actually produces an undesirable outcome in practice, way too much air is sucked out of the crankcase and a ton of oil comes with it as well. As far as I can tell the PCV diaphragm in these modern euro wet sump performance engines is active during boost as well, there's just a check valve to block boost from entering the valve cover and crankcase as there's no inherent check valve function in these diaphragm-type valves. Hopefully I'll be able to try some of this out soon. The Volvo XC90 4.4 V8 has a nice external version of these things.
