Just curious about AFM options for an RB30-DET. Leaning towards running a GT30 turbs, on about 18-20psi, using a PowerFC to tune it all. Just wondering if I would be better off runing a Q45 AFM, or twin Z32 or RB20's?

Can the PowerFC run two AFM's at once?

BEFORE YOU BUY THE Q45.......

Interesting thread guys. I am just about to tune my freshly built RB25/30 and am going to find out how much my z32 afm will support with the current set-up! Matt Loweth, an owner of an rb25/30 (for sale at the mo) on this forum has made around 340ish rwkw with a z32 afm. Correct me if I’m wrong, but its limits can differ depending on how "efficient" the engine is if you get my meaning. Matt does have gtr cams, which may help with this efficiency....food for thought..

You can use either the z32 or the Q45. The Q45 just has more resolution to tune with if you start talking big numbers....ie over 350rwkw i would use it.

They both cost around the same, just one has more head room for later on. I bought the Q45 because it cost the same as the z32's at the time, and i knew id be going for around 350rwkw....

    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
