I have just installed early N1 turbos on to my r32 GTR and just wondering what boost these things are designed to run at. At 13 psi only make 10kw more than the standard ones at 13psi.

Mods are filters,exhuast and power FC.

Any help?

Thanks

they should be right at home when running b/w 16-22psi.

i have a similar question, I'm getting N1 turbos installed on my GTR as we speak, the car is standard, other than full exhaust system and aftermarket airfilters, how much boost can i safely run, without risking damage to the turbos or engine?

I was thinking around 15 pound max?

Hey sounds the the same as what ive got. Car made 220 with standard @ 13 psi and now 230 with N1s @ 13 psi . Sounds like the turbos are made to run higher boost but how far can the standard pump and injectors go? I was hoping 250-260 with 18 psi. See what the skyline gods say :P

Id upgrade them to be safe anyway, if they havent had a good life and are on the way out this could be a recipe for disaster. No one likes having their engine lean out and go pop.

mhmm.

Pump and injectors would be a wise investment if you're going to be running around 18 pound.

heres another SK quote for ya...

N1's are OK for 1.2 bar, but nothing to do with breaking them. They just get a bit inefficient over that and heat up the air a bit. Boost is irrelevant anyway, as you do other things to improve the efficiency of the engine you will find the boost goes down but the airflow goes up. And airflow makes power not boost.

I understand that FLO is better than boost.But was concerned that runing the N1s at low levels was a waste off time.Good to know that they are efficient up to  1.2 bar but whats the other end of the scale? Is it a waste to run them at .8 or .9 bar?

Well I should know for sure on Friday......well be going on the Dyno hopefully, if nothing goes wrong, and I'll see how i go at different boost levels.

    • What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.
    • I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.      
    • So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about
    • This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but.. 
    • Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
