help with power output


Recommended Posts

This is an age old debet, my persnal experance is that i have ran my 95 r33 with remaped ECU (32), fmic, turbo back exst, HKS pod filter, bleed valve on 10, 12 and up to 14 all day every day for 2 years I normaly leave it at about 10 or 12, 14 when racing and had the dyno

run that other SAU's from canberra saw running on 12 well .7 bar, it always spikes to .9 bar then drops back. Stock turbo

so 14psi would be ok in short bursts?

I live in tas and its pretty cold down here all the time. like 14degrees is a warm day! Would it be ok to run 14psi every once in a while?

i thought the stock turb's could only handle 10-11 psi?

thats the safest zone to run them in 10-12psi they will run 14psi some even higher but dont expect them to last

cubes ran his rb20 turbo at 16psi on his rb20 it still running 9psi on his rb30det even though its seriously restricting power on the big boy..lol

stock turbos generally wont give you an increase in power much at all over 10psi going to 12psi.

you might get a little... but its nothing worthwhile and only shortens the turbo life.

some people have freak turbos that seem to take it, but most dont

1 bar = 14.7 psi

0.9 bar = 13.2 psi

0.8 bar = 11.8 psi

0.7 bar = 10.3 psi

etc

I run the Stagea turbo at 0.7 bar, because we have killed (ceramic in the cat disease) 4 turbos at 12 psi on other Skylines. We found almost ZERO power increase running the standard turbo past 12 psi, they just heat up the air.:stupid:

    • People still have Skylines? I thought they're non-existent now. 
    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
    • They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.
    • I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
    • Either way he still need those style of spacer to go into the manifold because the photo he currently has is not going to work
