Hey everyone

Just some questions to see if any1 can help.

My car was recently dynoed at 175rwkw at 10psi. Its got a front mount, 3" from the turbo and some other stuff.

I was told that i shouldnt go any higher than 10psi because stuff could snap. The previous owner said he could run 14psi on a bleed valve.

What else can i do to get some more power? i was hoping to get around the 200rwkw with the boost controller but yet...

what else can i do to my car?

cheers

Yes but wen you do that you can hav problems

There is only so much you want to run

After that engine blow up will be around the corner and rwkw does not mean you have a good car t drive

Power with power band is wat you need

cant i increase the psi higher than 10psi?

not on the stock turbo. 10-12psi is where its making its max power without putting too much stress on it. Ive heard that running more than 12psi through the stock T3, wont achieve much of a power gain anyway. and that running anything higher than 14psi for extended periods will kill the exhaust wheel.

200 +RWKW.

Back in the early days of messing with the rb25's we found that anything over 12lbs wasn't a very good idea, as it places too much strain on the std bottom end hence doesn't promote longetivity.

We found using a high flowed std turbo using a front mount, full 3" exhaust , pfc, boost controller would run at just over 200 rkws but would then run in to issues with fuel pressure etc, so i would recomend using a good quality fuel pump and pressure reg at the least but injectors if you can afford it. When its all said and done you cant axpect to get much more out of a std bottom end and have durability and the ability to be a daily driver etc. Thats why the blokes that are deadly serious about racing etc use os gkn motors that have nearly indesructable bottom ends etc to run rediculous amount of boost.It's also the reason i have built a stout 3ltr motor using good quality internals that will comfortably handle more than 2bar of boost when required.

Regards,

    • Yeah you can. Cable tie the gauge to a windscreen wiper, or run it into the car and hold it with one hand, or have the neighbour's kid run alongside and tell you what it says.
    • I've never understood why this bothers people. Surely you'd be looking at a T3 flanged Garrett style thing, rather than a TD? You're unlikely to push a +T hard enough to need that much fuel. If you're not starting with most of the things you need to do that (ie, the bloody ECU!), you're better off just going Haltech/Link. You wil hate life a lot less. No. Just no. Just turbo it as is.
    • Have you noticed if the squeak changes with temperature or after driving in the rain?
    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks 
    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.
