just dyno mine this morning, stsndard car with miss fire , made 256 at the hubs, but that is using the higher boost or about 0.9 or restrictor removed. The new turbos you have extend that as the amount of air going in is more as the AR in greater, you will just max out the injectors lower in the rev range.

rite not really wanting to spend anymore on car tbh but dont wanna be running stock power

UKPAISLEY · 26th April 2008, 05:26 PM

To be honest, you cant just put turbos on, you need to buy an Apexi Power FC, and map it as a min. When map you will be able to tune the car and get more power and even better fuel economey ( A bit ), with everything else standard. You have no option as the turbos dont match the ECU now.

gspot10 · 26th April 2008, 05:46 PM

shit one its a bit late to put back in standard turbos

SamuraiSam · 26th April 2008, 06:17 PM

Turn the boost down as far as you can, and hire a tuner. There is someone on this board who flies around and tunes cars. I dont know his name as I have only been on this board a few days but he sounds like he really knows his stuff.

rite dunno who that is must look into it!!! def need summit done!!

Tweenierob. He'll set you straight, get your car squared away.

what about 2560-9, it's just between 2860-5 and 7
nobody using them?

Hi all - interesting poll results - dead even! I have decided against turbos at the moment and will be ordering my Apexi Power FC within the next few days. Figured I'd best start there and turbos can come later in the year. Also, need to get them rocker covers off and see if it has the after-market cams it should have. Or if some nob has put vernier cam wheels on factory cams..... so thanks everyone. I've learned a bunch!

Keep us up to date, I'm all keen to see an angry R33 GTR show up in the area. I am trying hard to resist getting one of my own and doing a nice big single conversion on it

Got a very nice result from my mates R33 GTR with -5's earlier this week.

Check it out here:

Not me, it's great to drive with such a huge spread of torque!

tomek · 1st May 2008, 02:40 AM

Wouldn't mind seeing the graph, wonder how well the internal gates hold all that boost

More than likely with a Crowbar
