How to squeeze power out of an rb25de

[Skylinerz]

The current power for an rb25de is something like 140-142kw at the fly wheel, now i know that its not a turbo and all, which means it is much harder to get power out of the car, but what modifications ups the power of a rb25de that gives it that better take off and top end, what mods have u guys done to increase power?Nismoman18 I would like to ask u what u have done to your car which makes it rival 200sx's and turbo charged 180's?

better airbox flow...?

exhaust...?

increase timing...?

[MANWHORE]

cam gear, pod, timing with octane booster or something, exhaust. What it comes down to is how much do you wanna spend? add a turbo? replace the bottom end with an rb30?

[skyla]

the things I have done to my car are, K&N panel air filter, extractors, and 2 1/2" exhaust. this gets it going quite well for mid to top end power.

Just remember that if you choose to go for a bigger exhaust you will sacrific a little lower end torque for top end power.

Other things to look at are apexi sfac, and a lighter fly wheel will help in getting you off the mark quicker.

ive read you can gain a few extra kilowatts cheaply by advance timing by 3 degrees, putting in a highflow panel filter (or get a pod but keep the cold air induction and/or get a cold air box), get a fuel cut defender... but yeah... im not all that knowledgable... jus some ideas..

[RB30-POWER]

Remember these cars are already tuned for hi octane jap fuel.

So advancing the timing further is possibly asking for trouble.

[gatty]

fuel cut defender would be a waste of money on a rb25DE

all i have is 2 1/2 " exhasut

POD with CAI partition

goes ok i guess...i run it on Shell Optimax

Shell Optimax ay? And you're a QLDer? Bundaberg must be stealing all the Optimax then, coz on the S'Coast, you're lucky if you can get it before they run out for a few days...
