Thanks for the response here.

Would getting a blow off valve (HKS SSQ) and recirculating it fix this issue?

yes, I think you want somebody to say yes to buy them ill be that guy - click buy it now, now.

If I'm cruising uphill

Our engines don't like being below 2,000rpm. So downshift and keep the revs above 3,000rpm (where you have positive boost). Need to adjust your driving style a little compared to say 3800 EcoTech Buick/Holden engine ;)

Hmm. Something to be said for having a Neo25 in a lighter R32. 1500-2000rpm is a fine place to be. Will pull away from 1000rpm in 5th with judicious use of the throttle.

What the blowoff valve’s are doing is completely normal only change them if you want to throw away some money 

-7s are a great bolt on option and with a good exhaust, cams and fuel system on e85 makes for a very fun car

Let's just skip the middleman here and convince BMW to make a mirrored version of their B58 that is somehow direct fit for RB applications.

Ye, Toyota finally settled by the 2JZ vs RB25/26 feud by having BMW run in with a steel chair :p

I miss my old stock R32 GTS-t, but I tell you, the full factory RB20DET silvertop (including exhaust) was a bit of a struggle until you want past 2,000rpm (coming from an Aus-del R31 with RB30E).

With my GT-R, anything below 2,000rpm is a clutch-in scenario.
With my limited experience with NEO6, I can say anything below 2,000 rpm is a struggle (seems to be a common theme with turbo engines).

Even with my BMW B48 (F45 FWD 2-series hatch), anything below 1,500rpm is a struggle, so keep those revs up!

    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
    • Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?
    • Generally yes but for some reason I've been ruthless this time around!  I might even need to do another tip run after the way I've finally been able to hit the delete button on shit I've stepped over, stepped around and tripped over for the past 10 years!
