What's A Hi-Flowed R33 Turbo Worth?

[DVS JEZ]

Im curious if its a rock solid 15 psi

[RSFOURDayz]

Im aiming for 200rwkw and no more... Don't wanna end up with too much of a fuel guzzler as i don't earn a shitload and have 3 mouths to feed. Once i reach that goal, if i still want more “fun factor” ill convert it to manual.

Cmon man, we all know that is a BS result...dont beleive evrything you see on the net..

Chris just get the Hypergear hiflow, proven performer with warranty.

I got carried away and have 270kws now and really dont need it, but luckily I only have 1 mouth to feed so far...

I feel that graph is from a very happy dyno... But if boost isn't bleeding uptop it might be accurate?

For 200kw just get a NIStune and fuel pump. If u already have a front mount and 3inch TBE.

Normally rb25s can make 200 on 11-12psi

Maybe it is a happy result guys, but how happy? 20kw? Wowsers, thats still a cool 240kw from a basic highflow.

Come on

Just cause it can be done doesn't mean it should be done..

Or does it.

Cool thanks guys. Im still gonna suss it out make sure it is a r33 turbo and not an r34 but doubt i will be going ahead with it just yet. Thanks for the wisdom.

Yep, just to add to what the guys above have said... The highflow turbo that was on my car had a reciept for $1900 highflow service and the turbo SHOULD have made good power but the best i got was a laggy 250rwkw and i blame the tuner for that result as the specs on that turbo on other cars make better power and are nice and responsive.

To give you feedback on price, i sold mine for $800 in excellent condition.

I would probably be inclined to point you towards the HG options etc based on others results.... My poor result made me change my whole turbo setup and it has cost a stupid amount of $$$ to do, so make the right choice the first time, dont bolt on an unknown as you will end up regretting it in most cases...

Stageas are gas guzzlers with the stock turbo let alone a highflow. If your budget is tight just wait for a second hand Nistuned ecu and then get it tuned with your stock turbo at 10psi - they run too rich from stock anyway.

At some point you should replace your fuel pump with a new genuine Walbro or similar.

Then save up for a 3in turbo back exhaust

Look out for a second hand return flow fmic.

Then get the most bargain basement HyperGear Highflow and remember you will have to budget for a tune as well and wind it up to the max your stock afm and injectors will handle and you will have a pretty zippy family wagon.

This is for my R34, my stagea is staying bog stock as its my family car, the 34 is gonna be my daily/car

And im looking forward to it using less fuel than my last daily (rb30 Efi patrol) while being ten times quicker.

Sorry this is not std AFM.

AFM is Z32.

Also another customer made 260kw at 15 psi.

Std injector never lean out at 15psi.
