And, at a reletively low 14psi EDIT: Thx XCTMNT Basically ran 340rwHP / 253rwKW @ 14psi Bosch 036 injectors and IC still had plenty left for more 2-4 psi more boost, but did not try for it today. Impressive torque curve with just over 1600lb's at around 3500rpm. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

you have to be a member to see th pic, can you scan it on here? That's great work from you, you've been going for a long time with this car, if I remember correctly, you had this car when I was still in WA yeah? excellent result, what is your setup exactly? I'm on 201rwkws at 10psi at the moment, interested to see what happens when we up the boost to 15psi, my turbo is in the peak of it's effiency at 18psi, but I'd rather have reliability and keep it 15psi. At a minimum I would expect 220rwkws. who knows though, I'll find out on Tuesday.

Mine ran 271rwHP (About 201rwKW) last week at 9psi on the same dyno it just ran 253rwKW at 14psi. You should piss it in, good luck My Specs: Standard Internals 7.8:1 comp RB30ET Standard VLT T3, T4 Comp and Exh wheels fitted as well as HiFlow Standard VLT Exh Manifold Standard NA Intake manifold Simosa Pod Filter: JPC VL30TX1 Cam: Bosch 036 Injectors: Malpassi Fuel Reg: Bosch 044 pump: Izusu truck IC: 3" Mandrel exh Wolf 3Dv4 Btw, I have scanned the Dyno sheet but am not allowed to post attachments..?

Quote: 1600 ???? you sure? Positive Turbo'd RB30ETs produce some good torque figures I was shown a few other Dyno graphs from similar motors while I was in there today. They included a: RB25DET producing 360rwHP had 1400lb torque & RB20DET Producing 307rwHP had 1100lb torque XCTMNT: Email sent Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

hrmm, what would you expect to run with your setup, low 12s (manual yeah?), might scrape in high 11's? what diff gears u got? thats all with stock bottom end, is that correct? well done on the car, it's producing some very respectable figures.

Doubt I'll take it to the drags anytime soon, It still runs the NA 5spd gearbox, and although it has held up fine for over 12months with no sign of failing, I don't want to push my luck to much Potentially it has the HP to run an 11, and there is a guy on the R31Skylineclub forum who has run an 11.9 @ 115mph with 245rwKW, but his was an Auto, so my Best guess at an ET would be a 12.6 @ 115mph (lose .7 seconds over the first 60ft) FYI, The Dynodynamics Dyno did a printout for me of Estimated Flywheel power, my 340rwHP and 1600lbs of torque at the wheels apparently relates to: 303KW & 660nm Torque At the flywheel.

Your setup is almost identical I am sure you will make the same (More if you run more Boost!) rwHP as me Make sure you let us know when you do. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

The bloke down at www.horsepowerinabox.com (http://www.horsepowerinabox.com) does a hybrid type setup. It uses the GT35 600hp core, he machines the VLT exhaust housing to suit. On 17psi on a bloke I know it has made around 270rwkw last I heard. BUT he charges a little too much I feel. Its close to 3k for the turbo Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
