The Rat Bastard made it back onto the track last Sunday.Its got a new stove and an S15 turbo but i taught it was lacking power,granted it was only boosting 0.5 bar but I have a HKS actuator there which should up the boost a bit.
what else do i need to be sitting at comfortable power without raping my wallet,i dont want cams,power fc etc etc just jet??
Cheers

What mods have you already on it?
If for an example it is a standard s15 engine/turbo,
1) decent air filter
2) free flowing exhaust/decat/downpipe
3) FMIC (this will raise boost slightly)
4) Fuel pump ( sometimes with the extra airlow the fuel isnt getting delivered upto speed on an old pump)
5) Mappable ECU, the s15 ball bearing turbos with the above mods are good for around 300bhp
Its just a standard SR20 wit an S15 turbo.Quote:

the exhaust is a homemade straight decat back no middle or backbox.
Im told its a GTR fmic on it,not sure.
I must check what fuel pump is in it,I know its loud when ignition is turned on but i suppose all pumps do that.
what fuel pump would i be better getting?
You should have a good bit of poke with that spec man? well able for spinning up 2nd, third at a push it might just step out?Quote:

What size wheels were you using??
I had 17''s on but just felt they were heavy so i changed to 16''s and that made an improvement but id rather be running 17''sQuote:

215x45 R17 with 40psi???
Don't be a pussy....! 70psi....!
FUCK they'd be like a race bike,with being pumpedso hard would their not be feck all tyre smoke?
It'l still smoke lad....! Is this a track car your on about.....!
can't bait the extra air lad, put 70 psi in an old wreck of a 525 i had befor u should here the bang wen they popped, makes some differance do, she was barly spinin 1st wit 3o psi, and doin 2nd all day with the extra air.
Only problem with having more air in the tyres is that the air gets mega hot as its so compressed, and makes tyres soft and kills them super quick!
there is many ways to upgrade the power on a budget,so roughly whats ur budget and then we could help u further
if you can affored 450 ish get a nisstune wid stiv and a boots controller will light em up then :D
€500 or €600 maybe €1000 with a push but id like to that would include mapping/dyno
yes i road mapped my track car wid him he has garage insurance
remove all weight that you can the cheepest for a start. wont do much for power but will help over all.
turn up boost at your own risk tho.
you dont have much to work with if thats you budget
z32 but standard one is good to 300bhp
a map alone is 300-400 euro.
555cc injectors,z32,emanage kit,1.1-1.2 bar,
cost set up and fitted for 1000euro,would smoke them up then,thats what i would do anyway;)
Slap the boost up to .9 or 1.0 bar, provided shes not going to shit itself as it is....
melted pistons = fail:o u need a fuel controller to whack up boostQuote:
