Not trying to sound like a douche, but maybe the tuner you were "arguing" with though you were wasting his time, as obvoiusly you arent the sort of client that wants to spend the sort of money for those results. Just remember there was a Honda F1 1.5L making 1400hp

^^ This

anything can be done

some guys strapped a T04Z to a stock RB20 and made 430rwkws

or

the BRM 1.5L Superchanged V16 GP engine from the mid 50s, was making 600-650hp and revved to 11,000

in the 1950s!!!!!

ran 72psi of boost lol

Duh!

NZ exchange rate??

2.3 NZ litres = 2 Australian litres

Anyway Good on the Kiwi's to get the record from uncle Sam... good luck to them...

also can Evo engine with stock internals get 280KW without doing anything reliably.... Crap.... that really bloody good.

iplen lol that vid was not the one going for world record. just another well known one pushing 400+ on pump. Owner is a bit of a tool tho.

Update is, the owner has put it down the strip a few times, learning how to control the beast he has cracked mid 10's with the record in sight.

      Boost level and torque curve

      By Lithium · Posted

      There is a LOT of stuff that can be done, it all depends on how much time and money you want to spend on doing in.  Not all ECUs will be able to do it, and the more control you need the more time and knowledge needs to be put into making it work.  If you're willing to spend the time and money and have the right hardware and skills involved there's a lot that can be done.

      I am impressed with all this level of adjustment. I didn't expect all this possibility

      Boost level and torque curve

      By Lithium · Posted

      Correct.  In the case of the 500kw dyno plot I showed you the car actually runs two boost control solenoids for boost control and a 5psi wastegate spring.  It allows me to control how much boost pressure is applied to both sides of the wastegate valve at any point and fairly accurately control boost target as a result. I've tuned it so that it's able to target anywhere from 5psi to 25psi depending on what's needed.  The target tables I've set up in that car are Gear vs RPM, so every gear has potential for a different boost (and torque) curve.   First and second gear have quite low boost targets, third gear actually has different target boost all the way through the rpm range as it's a stock RB25 gearbox - the boost targets have been chosen to maintain a peak of 600nm (what the owner has set as the maximum torque he's happy with putting through the stock 3rd gear) but it carries that to the rev limiter.   The boost curve to achieve that is something of a ramp up, then hold, then ramp up again and the power curve looks more like a flat line haha.

      so you can decrease or increase the boost depending on the diet as you wish?     by acting on the wastegate?

      That's torque and power, it's all from a single run.  The boost curve is "held back" from it's peak target in the 3500rpm to 5000rpm range from memory, so it ramps hard to something like 18psi then climbs more progressively to 23psi nearer 5000rpm.   It makes the torque (and power) ramp more "natural" and less hard on parts and traction, it doesn't feel artificially held back.
