High Flowed Turbo Running Standard Boost

[picklesRs4]

Ok it seems our resident geniuses came to play on page 2..read what they say as it's interesting and you could learn a little,but ignore it...if you can't pay to play just get a secondhand turbo for now and start saving coin for the real thing.. Because a half baked skyline, isn't really a skyline at all

yea i have a bit of saving to do. my car isnt even on the road yet as it shit itself before i could even get a roady for it which i think was my 3rd drive in it haha, i have got an offer of a second hand greddy ultimate already but not sure how long till i'll even be able to use it. i also need to get my manual license and do a conversion before i start winding it up like crazy. (only on my first year of green p's btw). thanks for the suggestions and help that's a thanks to everyone else on here as well btw

afms suck...map ftw

I don't necesarily think so, if they all "suck" as you say why would manufacturers use AFM instead of all going to MAP sensors?

AFMs cost more than MAP sensors.

Not sure about these days, but back in the days when I fooled around with tuning cars for friends I found that cars using MAP sensors instead of AFMs had a flat spot transitioning from -ve to +ve plenum pressure, could be ECU related so I don't know. However, I'm getting an Adaptronic ECU soon and running a MAP sensor so I'll find out for myself 1st hand.

I can high flow stock turbo so they work fine with factory ECU and still make bit more power then standard. But they don't make much power if you have plans for supporting mods.

Light blue is factory turbocharger.

yall' just got staoed.

nice one mate.

think his is auto like mine was...

how did you run 1.2 bar on a stock ECU?

[hypergear]

It has nistune installed. But the response and torque delivery is identical to factory turbo. So if you run it on 10psi with stock ecu it has stock turbocharger's drive ability.

alright awesome. stao i'll give you a call when im finsihed tafe today around 1:30 to organise more. i have the turbo off the car and ready to go. high flow low boost it is

So you determined that your factory turbo is actually broken and the cause of your problem or are you just buying a new turbo because you still don't know what caused your initial issues?

i had a little understatement earlier, hasnt been in my garage in a while and realise the turbo blades were caked in oil and there was oil coming from the centre housing. so far i have it down to turbo and cooler pipes. sparks plugs had a bit of carbon but no more then you'd expect from 8 months old plugs

if your turbo still has blades then its not blown....turbo blades caked in oil is often just excessive blowby...maybe invest in an oil catch can first...
