Hi, Rob

you should able to meet your goal, however you might have to consider get a aftermarket equ-ength (spelling?) of manifold made up..coz the gas will flow much better then stock..

I have a td06-20g with a 16cm2 exhaust housing. It should be tuned in the next 4-5 weeks, currently sitting on the stock manifold and with a stock ecu. Makes 344hp @ 13psi, full boost by 4600rpm. I expect boost to come on quicker once the ecu is fitted, if it isnt much better I'll look into a tubular manifold. I'll let you know how I go, but I expect to make 360ish with the ecu and around 14psi.

Good to read about these buildups, like Steve's 3037, bbenny's 2530 and Rob77's TD06. Really gives some good reading, and shares alot of (expensive) knowledge.

There should be a few more project writeups soon, with Roy's new hairdryer, Akira's quest for a decent tune with rice, GTR STI's animal, my brother's and my own street car....and the list goes on.

I agree this section, forced induction performance, seems to be the best read and most information packed. The state sections tend to be filled with whore crap. Its good to see so many r33's been taken beyond the stock turbo, the more people who do it and then post their findings the more information we have and the easier it becomes for others to decide which way to go. Went for a blat this evening to get some petrol and milk and shit to keep the preggers wife happy and shit my car scares me sometimes... so much power and so little traction :D Although gtst-vspec has less traction than me, we went fishtailing down the road yesterday on the way to picking my car up from the panel beater after some truck driver wacked my car outside work. I am hanging out for my ecu now, then I can scare myself some more ;)

I had drive it tonight..

took off at 1st gear rev till 7000 hear the wastgate open shift to second heard it again shift...and it's keep throw me back to my seat , lag is there, but down shift will make it easy to drive..the boost so savage.....so hard...i would not take any elder in back seat, who might need a neck reconstruction after have a lift..

When the it's on boost and pass a big left turn, I need to keep the throttle steady..coz I can feel the car start to sideway....need to slow a bit, I have FM901 235 all around, and now I am thinking about some semi slick now..

what a great night..

i know of a car running a t67-25g (similar to tdo6-25g) on a rb24. hes not running a/m ecu yet and doesnt really have that much lag but it hits pretty hard. he spins his 255 semi slicks in the dry on boost in the first 3 gears,while only running 15psi. pretty scary considering hes getting a powerfc and boost up to 22-23psi.

    • @joshuaho96 Hmm considering the drama you've seen/experienced, have you looked into getting a built complete long motor shipped from Australia?  Considering the AUD is basically monopoly money when compared to the USD, at a glance this seems like a good option?
    • Bloody Skylines, they put you through the bloody wringer! Stick at it! Stunning drag strip BTW! Where is it? Can see part of the name on the slip and probably should just Google it!
    • I mean the other day I had to walk someone through diagnosing why their timing belt was walking off the cam gears. At least one of the issues was a bent tensioner stud. Local mechanics have found runout on the CAS mechanism causing weird failures. I'm also no saint here I've documented some of the things I've had to learn the hard way. Something I discovered recently is that my CA emissions catalytic converters weren't even welded correctly to align the downpipe to the main cat and they tossed the support bracket that goes from the transfer case to the downpipe to support everything there. I spend a lot of time chasing down these decidedly unsexy problems and the net effect is it feels like I never actually get to the original objective (flex fuel, VCAM, oil control, cooling, etc).
    • At times with how you make everything sound, all I imagine Americans doing when they see a gtr is standing there looking at it and bashing it with a gun like how a caveman would with a club and hoping it fixes itself 
    • I think this is just a product of how the US market works for this stuff. Shops are expensive and there's no real way of knowing what kind of results you're going to get, people don't really have the institutional knowledge. I have heard too much at this point to really put faith in anybody "full service" except maybe DSport and they aren't really a full service kind of shop. If you go to the right place I have no doubt they'll get it right for you. Some locals have set it up right but the cost really is nuts and even now they're still fighting issues. And you know I'm a crazy person who thinks things like twin scroll, relatively short low-mount cast headers, PCV recirc to intake, recirculating BOV, right-sized for ~400 whp, MAF load, validating all of that to a standard comparable to OEM test programs, etc are relevant. For what it's worth, multiple local owners at this point have been stuck in a perpetual cycle of blowing a motor -> getting someone to rebuild it -> some missed detail causes the bearings to wipe and spin just outside of break-in mileage or drop valves or some other catastrophe -> cycle repeats. I usually only find out about this because I'm perpetually helping random friends with diagnosing car troubles, Skyline or otherwise. The single turbo stuff if I'm honest is mostly secondary, it just doesn't seem to achieve the numbers in the ~2000-3000 rpm region that I would expect given the results I've seen here or in Motive's videos. I don't really know what we're missing here in the US to be causing this. Lots of people like to emphasize the necessity of finishing the project first and foremost, but I'm not made of money and I can't afford to be trashing a 15k+ USD engine build with any regularity. Or spending my relatively limited garage time these days unable to triangulate problems because too much was changed all at once. Also, even if it isn't a catastrophic failure I would consider spending the cost of single turbo conversion with nothing to show for it to be pretty bad.
