Excuse my ignorance, but doesn't the powerFC do everything the SAFCII does and more? Why would you have both? (Please correct me if I'm mistaken )

[RedEmblem]

I dunno, ... maybe...

Mainly interested in what the intercooler would provide though...

[Bass Junky]

Safc not required with PFC

Get a front/dump pipe, and then boost to 11 psi.

you should make 180-190.

Do a search on this, it has been done heaps before.

Hi Guys,

I have an rb25 in my 32 and its making 197.6kw's at the wheels on 11.5psi.

I have apexi exhaust, blitz lm intercooler, blitz ebc, apexi power fc, and pod.

Hope that helps

hey there andrew... got the scratches fixed bud ?

I recomend u get your dump pipe 1st..this will help give you a bit more kilowatts together with the intercooler.. with this you'd be able to put the boost up high a bit..( 12psi recomended) i'd say with just that set up you'd get maybe 165-170rwkw.

with powerfc..maybe you get 190rwkw.. no need for the safc with this.

[paulr33]

yep sell the safc as its useless and buy a front/dump combo

makaveli,

Any chance of a dyno graph pic?

[makaveli]

Hi Guys,

Im really sorry I don't have a scanner

How could i get it on the net?

I was once told by a teacher of mine that the main way to gain power without major changes was to work on a AIR IN AIR OUT theory STD exhaust dumps on the turbo are fairly restrictive, and a 1/2 decent dump will work wonders.

Also if you havent already. y not drop in a K&N pannel filter good cheap upgrade for the intake side of things and flow very well with std "COLD" air box !!!!

ive got a r33 gtst with 3" turboback exhaust.. blitz intercooler, and safc2..

she does 196rwkw

how many extra kw should the powerc give ya ? I no the safc's add on 20-30rwkw..

[jazza08]

Eh i think thats abit of a high figure.. power FC wont do anything more than an SAFC but will provide much more depth later on of course, if you only have the mods you stated a power FC wud be fairly useless id think... upgrade ur turbo and thats outta the SAFC league.

[benm]

Justin; You wont get much more (if any) but it will be smoother with more torque.

[Cubes]

Jazz80,

If the dyno figure is not reading higher than the average then you have reaced the peak power/airflow that the turbo can provide in the TOP END, which is a pretty damn good effort from the tuner and possibly the freak ecu you have there.

However, Peak power isn't everything, it only dictates a certian amount of power at one rpm point. How often do you sit the car on that RPM point? .2 of a sec. ?

The PowerFC will give you more mid range and area under the curve, resulting in a car that accelerates quicker even though the peak power is the same.

I've got

FMIC

3inch split Dump back with a hi flo cat

PowerFC

Boost set at 12psi

209.3 rwkw

420nm Torque

Stock Turbo, stock injectors, stock fuel pump, stock engine, stock cams etc.

You DO NOT need a SAFC with a powerfc, thats just stupid, and will most likely cause major problems.

Thats a nice bit of photo shop there The Mafia :wassup:

Just kidding mate. Those figures are pretty empressive your getting there, you would have to be happy with the stock internals and turbo producing that much. Do you have a 1/4 mile time with those figures at all???

Sure do.

But its not that impressive.... My clutch is stuffed... I ran a 13.6 but things you've got to look at..

Clutch Stuffed

18" Low Profile Tyres at 12psi

JIC Coilovers lowered so the tyres are almost under the guard.

Mind you, I managed 2.1 sec Launch.. (I think) I was stoked! I'll try and find the time slip.

When I get new tyres and clutch, I'll give it another go, and most certainly let you guys know.

[RedEmblem]

Okay, thanks guys.

So, generally speaking, I should have about 5k set aside to make it to around the 180-190rwkw mark.

[jazza08]

Try full exhaust, FMIC and elc boost controller set to 12psi, go check out ur dyno figure and then if u want more get the power fc!
