At least a bleed valve would hold boost steady :P

I'm using a Turbosmart eBoost, in case anyone can offer any solutions or suggestions...

you could give your actuator rods a few mm more preload it will help hold higher boost levels... thats what i needed to do to hold 30psi steady, my base boost is now 14 psi with zero setting on my id3 blitz controller...

well done with those power levels so far...

hope this helps....cheers...

....More than enough for track work IMHO.

Now it's time to attack the car with weight reduction :P

:werd: ... As long as you are still making good power up top, i seriously doubt even guys with 400+rwkws will be able to match you coming out of a corner and have enough of a straight to catch and overtake between corners. ;)

Yeh now you need to rip off the HICAS, throw in some Kevlar seats and goa rac'n :headspin:

great results merli thats what we expect as well.

when does the boost start,and could you post a copy of your dyno graph,as i think everyone would like to cheack it out. how many kays did you put on it before the tune and who was it that did the tune if you don't mind?

dough boy do you think it could be the exhaust housing that could be causing the boost struggle.

another thing was that on the HKS web site they state that the SS's are ment to flow as much as the 2530,320hp each i think.

i don't know how true that maybe ,but i've also seen a HKS dyno graph the a set of SS's on a 2.8L and 274deg camed car pull 750HP at the engine!

has anyone SEEN! big figures from GTSS's.

Merli again great result

by the was we are using a blitz i-D boost controller if that means anything,seems good but it hasn't seen any boost yet so hard to tell.

merli, i had a turbo smart e-boost put on my gtr last week and its working really well, turbo's are spooling faster as its helps hold the wastegates shut for longer. make sure your gate pressures are set right, they tend to spike and fluctuate a bit if set to sensitive and make sure your over boost shut down is set atleast .2 bar over your max setting... see how that goes

I bought ours of Dough boy but i'm not sure if he will get anything more from japan otherwise i would have got them of nengun!

the kit comes with 2xturbos 1xexhaust gasket and the little hoses that you need and it shows how to install them as well.

i was just at supernats and saw joe but his RX-7 into the wall not a pretty site but he's OK.

his car is stuffed.

I just heard through the grape vine that merli/andrews R33 GTR which just made 300awkw just died at the race track, i heard that it threw a main bearing. or something i hope this isn't true as i couldn't think of a better drag, than a r33 gtr with the same turbos and the same cams.

Andrew can you tell us, what happened?

      Fellow ADHDer to fellow ADHDer; Don't chase that paint perfection. Paint the bumpers, and put them on.  Leave the respray for another day. Plus, no one is going to see those old areas above. Any spots of surface rust, give them a clean up, prime, then hit with a white paint just to protect them from rusting. Again, no one can see it.   #Mine hasn't been on the road since 2011 cause ADHD... I've slowly learned not to keep f**king with shit if I don't need to...

      That would be interested if it's the case as seems like it would make the job a lot messier but subaru sells OEM gaskets so seems it might of had it.

      Fuel tank is out. Looks pretty bloody good under (ie above) the fuel tank.  Amazing how good the factory e-coat holds up in the hidden areas.  No where near as much body deadener to get rid of as the front but still not looking forward to it!  Shit of a job.  I'm thinking I might grab a needle scaler and give that a go before I attack it with the angle grinder and wire wheel which is how I did the front 2/3's of the car.  Feels good to be working on the car again but who knows how long it will last!  Hopefully I can get it further forward than where it was prior to this last block of work when I decided to go back 10 steps further down the rabbit hole from where i already was! The problem is, I'm realising how hard it will be to repair and paint the bumpers, which cannot be put back on the car, and have a good paint match. There are also areas where it would be VERY hard to hide the new paint where it transitions from old paint. Like this- There is only one way to do that perfectly and I really dont want to have to do what that means I would have to do... 🤦‍♂️

      Pretty sure the factory assembly doesn't have any gasket at all, just RTV.
