Its a strange one tho, its not like the other one i have, the core and rear housing are one casting still, but its not a standard rb25 core..

Started moding the manifold today to for the external wastegte

Haha

Just a short skiny screamer for some serious noise is what it needs i think.

The laurels gota be up to cert and warrent standard,so ill have to make a plumb in setup for the screamer aswel.

Some quick vids of how she sounds with the new exhuast, still needs a tune, iv had a bit of fuel pulled out and the tps map from jonos s13 (the white one from stadium drift tuned by mercury) put in but thats it, still runs pretty rough.

First run just running waste gate spring pressure (8psi) and boost creeping to about 11psi it made 266kw (356hp) at the wheels. Next will be tuning with the boost solenoid wired in and running around 14psi.

On 13psi we had 252kw at the wheels but the injectors were at 100% duty cycle so it was droped back to 10psi and this is what I left with :thumbsup:

She still pulls nice and hard on the street, ill be going back with some bigger injectors and modified manifold sometime soon.



Boost creeps from poor manifold design..

    • Well, yeah, the RB26 is definitely that far off the mark. From a pure technology point of view it is closer to the engines of the 60s than it is to the engines of the last 10 years. There is absolutely nothing special about an RB26 that wasn't present in engines going all the way back to the 60s, except probably the four valve head. The bottom end is just bog standard Japanese stuff. The head is nothing special. Celicas in the 70s were the same thing, in 4cyl 2 valve form. The ITBs are nothing special when you consider that the same Celicas had twin Solexes on them, and so had throttle plates in the exact same place. There's no variable valve timing, no variable inlet manifold, which even other RBs had either before the 26 came out or shortly afterward. The ECU is pretty rude and crude. The only things it has going for it are that the physical structure was pretty bloody tough for a mass produced engine, the twin-turbos and ITBs made for a bit of uniqueness against the competition (and even Toyota were ahead on the twin turbs thing, weren't they?) and the electronic controls and measuring devices (ie, AFMs, CAS, etc) were good enough to make it run well. Oh, and it sounds better than almost anything else, ever. The VR38 is absolutely halfway between the RB generation and the current generation, so it definitely has a massive increase in the sophistication of the electronics, allowing for a lot more dynamic optimisation of mapping. Then there's things like metal treatments and other coatings on things, adoption of variable cam stuff, and a bunch of other little improvements that mean it has to be a better thing than the RB26. But I otherwise agree with you that it is approximately the same thing as a 26. But, skip forward another 10 years from that engine and then the things that I mentioned in previous post come out to play. High compression, massively sophisticated computers, direct injection, clever measuring sensors, etc etc. They are the real difference between trying to make big power with a 26 and trying to make big power with a S/B50/54 (or whatever the preferred BMW engine of the week is).
    • Is the RB26 actually that far off the mark? Honestly from where I'm sitting a VR38DETT is not actually that much more advanced than the RB26. Yes, there is a scavenge pump on the VR38, it's smarter in a number of ways but it's not actually jumping out to me as alien technology. Something like a B58 or V35A-FTS on the other hand has so many surprising little design features that add up to be something that just isn't comparable.
