G'day peoples,

I just put on my R34 turbo onto the Rb20. What a bloody job, would have been easiy if it werent for one bloody bolt, the hardest one to get to.

I took it for a test run and its only running at 5psi. I beleive this would be normal as the Rb20 is obviously smaller,

I'm thinking I will knock the boost to about 11psi with a bleed setup, what doo yoouuss reckon.:P

11psi should be no worries without having to worry about fuel etc.

TO be safe though and make sure it isn't leaning out due to an old fuel pump either replace the fuel pump or get it setup on a dyno for 11psi.

Also let us know how you go with boost drop if any in the higher revs, as the std turbo drops boost in the higher revs.

So whats the drive like does it feel better than the std r32 turbo?

Full boost by 2500rpm or 3000rpm?!?!?!?

G'day Joel,

Well its only making 5 psi at the mo. The car makes boost at about 2grand. Its driving pretty well considereing such low boost. I don't feel anymore lag atall.

My car is missing at idle like a little bitch now. I don't know what it is. Could the oxygen sensor be stuffed?

What else could it be.

    • Hello, I'm trying to make this thread basically the thread with all the answers to common questions regarding specifically the RB20 DE NEO + T engine, that comes in the R34. Answers will and only should be provided by those who have done this conversion or actually have some relevant real life experience please. Please feel free to ask questions in the comments if you have any so other members can answer. I feel like this thread is really needed, especially with more Americans buying (unknowingly going to regret it too) rb20 neo r34s. My first question being - What do you guys use for tuning? I have purchased a haltech elite 2500 Plug and play kit for the rb25det NEO because the ecu plug is the same, but I am unsure if any of the pins would need to be repined to match. Second question that I see asked very often - After this conversion, did you install the boost solenoid/ actuator? I see many people doing a + T setup on their rb20 NEOs while running stock RB25DET NEO ECUs with no tune. I am wondering how they are going about doing that and consistently abusing the car because many of these people have had these untuned setups running for a very long time. That was my original plan, but my engine cuts out at 5 psi of boost using the stock ecu with no tune and no boost solenoid/actuator.
    • interesting. ive read and heard otherwise over the past year. ive been doing this +t conversion on a rb20 neo using all oem rb25det neo parts including the ECU, and im having engine cut out issues when I hit around 5 psi of boost. Everywhere/everyone ive asked has told me its because I never wired in a boost solenoid/actuator to the ecu, so the ecu isn't getting the right signal once it hits 5 psi of boost, causing the engine to get shut off.
    • Mate, I take this thread in random directions on occasion myself, so no foul I'm a old fan of MCM anyway, I like their banter, and enjoy most of the stuff they do
    • Something strange is happening. I didn't touch the car since we last spoke on the forums. Yesterday was the first day of good weather, so i took it out for about 2 hours. It started up on first crank every time about 5 times total. I literally didn't do anything to do the car.  
    • I purchased this one. Very well priced and works great. I was rough with it to see if it will last and had no issues.  Teslong Two-Way Articulating Borescope with Light, Industrial Endoscope Inspection Camera with Articulated Probe, Flexible Mechanic Fiber Optic Snake Scope Cam for Wall Automotive Engine Inspect-5FT : Amazon.ca: Industrial & Scientific
