r33 gtst makes 230rwkw at 13psi

[siksII]

thats what i was thinking.

i dont think your 230rwkw will stay 230rwkw for long if u rev it to 9000

[MSPEC]

The tuner does not sound to cluey to me mate, I have a 25/35 and it made 233rwkw’s. I thought that was about the norm, plus I am only running 11psi.

Why would you stress the shit out of the engine for a few more kilowatts? It’s a small turbo that is designed to make about 220~230 on an RB25.

Running crazy boost like 17~18 psi on a standard engine and reving it out so far is only going to kill the engine and turbo in a hurry. Spinning the wheels is what HKS turbos do so get use to it

[danieltangtc]

Hmmm, Robo boosts up till 19 psi on his 2530.... I should be fine with 1.2 bars I believe! Hmmm, I think i will be a little gentle on my peddle in the future...no more 9000rpm....

[Robo's]

19psi is fine but i have my rev limiter set at 7000. Max power is at 5,700rpm, so going much past 6200rpm is a waste of time as i feel the power dropping off. Even if i took the rev limiter off, i doubt whether it would go to 9,000rpm.,

[danieltangtc]

I dunno about ur car Robo, but mine reves till 9000 rpm and bounces off rev limiter. You can ask Sam and Duc (Nozila). They were with me in the car this afternoon when it hits 9000rpm. I think its my new splitfire direct ignition coils, and new irridium sparkies that allows me to do that.

i think i will ask the tuner to set my rev limiter so I do not overrev

yea well i've had some clown claiming that he did 24psi on a regular basis with a standard S14 turbo

[NickR33]

oh the pain... a stock internal motor at 9000rpm... ouch

and I don't think 13psi through a HKS turbo could be classified as stock boost... it would be flowing a lot more air than the stock turbo at 13psi... correct me if I am wrong

please back the tune off a bit and spend some money on mods to keep the engine alive and the car out of the trees...

all that aside it sounds like an awsome setup, I am leaning heavily towards a similar setup and I can't wait;)

[Cool Hand Luke]

I would seriously doubt that it would make power anywhere near to 9000 with stock cams and a small turbo... Even my Rb20 was over-revving at 72-7500. Good luck tho, nice power and would love to see a video of a 9000rpm burnout

[B-Man]

I would strongly recomend to NOT rev your car out to 9000 RPM. Especially with a stock bottom end.

My old setup had the bottom end completely bulletproofed and I still didn't take it past 7500. (With 330rwkw).

I once took it 9000rpm at a WSID meet - spun a bearing. Got the bottom end bearings (new) repaced - Put an oil cooler on and all good.

Seriously - if you want some more life outa your donk - DON"T rev it so much.

[danieltangtc]

Ok....Now i understand....I will never NEVER do....It again....

They are only looking out for you man through their own previous expiriences.... I have read stories of how much its costs to fix if something throws a leg outta bed. Look at it this way - The better you treat her, the better she will treat you.

Would it not just be the engine management? In other words does the PowerFC have the redline set to 9000-RPM? That is part of the engine tune is it not? … RacePace set my redline to 7500-RPM. So you are making 230rwkw’s on 13psi, you hope to make 250rwkws at 19psi? On the stock internals 19psi is not okay despite what you might hear. I mean its okay if you drive off boost with a soft foot but who does that? A 2530 is not a Trust T88 turbo, its designed for low boost applications.

Also how long have you owned the car?

[danieltangtc]

I've owned this car since march so its relatively new in my hands. i have only driven it for 1400kms so far

hehehe........ Time for me to screw the tuner!!!

[MSPEC]

Ohh damn well you don’t understand why we are so concerned then, these cars are far from invincible ;( I also wondered why you were a little scared or worried about the traction loss

I have owned my car for just over 3 years now and lets just say I don’t have the original turbo or engine In fact I don’t think I have the original anything really!

[Starionturbo]

Can a bloody stock RB25 even rev to 9000 rpm?

Most ive taken mine to was 7,000 rpm (not hittin the limiter) but I wudnt go ANY more at all. My old 32 with the RB25 I took up to 7,500 sometimes but that setup/tuning was much different.

9,000 rpm ur gonna see a conrod pokin its head outta the block soon buddy.

[Sumo]

Not even an original steering wheel??

[danieltangtc]

hahaha........wow........

I guess the car should still be alright right? All the mods like turbo, pfc ,coils injectors...etc were only installed last week.... Its just that I have never felt so much power b4 in a car that I had to go crazy at 9000rpm

I am sane now!!! Thank you all for caring for me and my ride. i am so touched. i wish I could kiss all you guys! Is there anything I can do for my car to say sorry to her???

[MSPEC]

HAHA yeah I think he gets it now It can rev to 12,000 RPM if you want it will probably just stop there as well
