So this morning I had the skyline on the dyno.

Usual mods:

Hks2535 turbo

740cc injectors and walbro pump

Powerfc

All the expected bolt on mods for an average reasonably quick Skyline.

Running at about 17-18psi

Has been street tuned so I really wanted to know the power figure.

Disappointing to say the least, only 164kw atw

I have taken the car down the drag strip here in Townsville and have run times of 13.5 @ 111mph and my best of 13.3 @ 109 mph

Which I thought, while an average time, not a bad mph.

Thoughts?

Not sure what that means?

Was really hoping to crack 200kw but fell short of that by a long way.

Car is pretty damn quick for only 164kw though....

Well either the clutch is slipping, wheels spinning or the power dies off massively due to the tune

Edit: maybethe dyno operator has let the throttle off and let the power drop before ending the run.

12psi run - 130kw atw

1st 18psi run

2nd 18psi run

Makes a whole lot of noise for not much haha.

The 3 dyno papers is all I got.

I like to think of it as a really strong 164kw atw :)

Interesting enough, on another dyno

12psi is 180kw and on 14psi made 199kw atw.

You can see why I was really hoping to crack 200kw especially with a bit more boost.

Ahh the dissappointment.

Edit:

Actually just checked, 10psi made 180kw and 12psi it made 199kw.

6psi more boost and made less than what I started out at.

The evidence is there. Sometimes the answer is so simple you get confused thinking about it. I'll bet if you go back to the same dyno that showed a low figure and had someone that knows how to set it up correctly actually using it the results would be a whole lot better.

This may seem silly. But my car has a vtec controller, which I suspect is for the VCT. Car is using an rb20 ecu.

Its just set to max, didnt have enough time on the dyno to play around with it to see where it should have been set.

Anyone ever connected a vtec controller to their 25's?

I've made an identical turbocharger for the development of our SS1PU turbocharger last year. I've made 248rwkws it didn't produce much of a nice curve with noise dive after 6000RPMs. I believe the comp wheel is too small for a Rb25det, how ever would be a ok turbo for a Rb20det.

    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
