im pretty sure my timing was off.

i posted a dyno graph showing the before and after curve.

so just to clarify, i got 147 on 3" turbo back, fmic, pod and 12psi

with retarded timing (i THINK it was sitting a few degrees under stock).

if my timing was spot on then im guessing i would've made around 160kw as my base. but you cant really tell.

also another thing i'd like to add is he said that sometimes the knock sensor on the safc screws with the timing, if the knock is high then somehow it will retard timing so he advised me to disconnect it.

My GTS-T (5 Speed) made 160rwkw on the dot with a front mount intercooler, pod filter and turbo back exhaust running 10psi, anymore boost that that and the factory ECU seemed to retard the timing

You mean to say you disconnected the knock sensors ?

:P my gts-t r33 s1.5, has got 3" front the dump pipe, boost controler set at 11psi (i set it to 10psi once and it did run alot nicer) pod, and thats about it, and its getting 194.9rwkw :(.. stock intercooler, stock ecu as far as i know.. wots with that? how come so high.

dont get me rong, i dont mind, just wondering if there could be other mods that arnt so ovious that may be helping it get so high.

p.s: on stock boost (7psi) it was at 170rwkw :confused:

As I understand it, the power figure I managed (which was taken on C & V's dyno) - was pretty much spot on for an RB25DET with the modifications I had at the time.

Varying dynos give varying results - I dont believe you almost reached 200rwkw from an exhaust system and 11psi, sorry.

Its weid people are posting results at ither 160-165rwkws

or 185-195rwks with the same mods

i must addmit us autos 4 in this thread all push 185rwkws and all in second

i was told my turbo was hiflowed cause i pushed alot of hp but i realy dout it now cause we all push the same

confused james

yeh i was i was a bit like, woh ok.. im just wonding if there has been other mods in the engine that i cant see (im not a car wiz so i only know from what ive picked up here)..

got it done at UAS in castlehill.. they do alot with skylines and 300's, so id wana think the dyno was pritty close for thouse type of cars

red line on low (7psi), blue on high (11psi)

Blitz is 100% correct. Not possible to get 50rwkw with a air fuel controller. If that figure was with a power FC i would believe it not with SAFC.

By the way i like your intercooler setup, looks great!

like I said, his base timing must have been way off.

Look at the original graph. Power curve looks like something a 3 year old would draw. I've only ever seen graphs like that with severely retarded base timing.

Does it matter what gear the dyno tune was done in... I'm asking as the tune for my car was done in 3rd (tiptronic), just wondering if doing it in 2nd would've made a difference.

I've been reading with interest too. I'm getting dyno tuned tomorrow with a Jaycar DFA (works the same as SAFC)

I'll definately ask the tuner to check my ignition timing. Excuse my ignorance but is this a quick easy to do (adjust timing) because I only booked in for an hour.

I got similar mods - 3" exhaust, pod, 10psi, stock intercooler - chugs fuel

5 Minute job

how can you guys argue with whats written on paper?

and i keep saying he didnt only tune my safc!

Your totally right.

Heres a dyno result from an R33 GTR in essentially stock form - I know it might seem a little high, but how could you argue with it? After all, the owner has it on paper

so what you're saying is ive completely fabricated the dyno?

thats f**king stupid.

you're making accusations you cant back up.

    • Great to hear you are bringing it out of the shed again. Unless you have specific issues I'd just add the wideband, get a good tune and enjoy it. Certainly no point changing coils etc if they are working. If would add fuel pressure and e85 sensor if you are doing a general update but not if it runs OK and you are just getting it back on track. The other thing is smaller, modern twins, -5 are OK for motorsport but pretty laggy and old tech for street use (of course, if performance is the priority a modern single with twin scroll manifold etc is the go but not cheap). The final thing worth considering is switching to an ethrottle if drivability is still an issue, it should make things a lot simpler and smoother
    • Yeah pretty sure they are m4, but best to check, and perhaps use new hardware Also don't over torque them......there was that one time I lost an expensive engine after a workshop overtorqued one of those bolts and it ended up in the oil pump (no, I don't know why they removed the intake mesh either)
    • I might have to shoot them an email. Pity the exchange rate is so bad at the moment. BTW, thanks for posting that table makes interesting reading. 
    • Add these Sensors -Wideband, Oil Pressure, Fuel pressure, Intake air temp Good inspection of ignition system of coils, plugs and loom (12v feed and good ground)- a r35 kit is best bang for buck upgrade. A decent tuner should be able to see any issues with the trigger system- a link has good filtering but a good simple upgrade is the nz wiring bolt in kit. Check and replace all the fuel filters- you would be surprised at intank filter after a few years. Also good to check for any leaks on vac hoses and pipe work as has been said. No need to go overboard and spend big $$$ to enjoy the car. A quality tuner is getting harder to find as anyone with a laptop thinks they are a tuner. A link has great features to check sensor voltages and frequency inputs and easy to see live by pressing f12. The link can do a TPS & RPM fuel/ignition mapping on ITB cars then add a 4D table with MAP and ability to add a 5D to it (can help with economy at cruise with wheel speed vs TPS) Where are you located as that will help narrow down a good tuner ?
    • Reviving an old thread, I reckon my stagea is starting to slip. Car usually gets parked on a hill, narrow driveway so cant go up the driveway smoothly, anyhows, lately first gear feels "sluggish"? Not responsive. Feels like I gotta run the engine more than usual to get off the line...  Any recommendations for transmission servicing in Sydney? Or possibly just an excuse to go manual ?
