My problem is I need a V8 lol.

Ahh well. I may just go Disco Potato for response and save the big oomf for my 2j.

Yeah you need a 6 cylinder.... Was tuning my friends 2JZ... its so smooth on a T78 compared to our 4 bangers that sound like rattling a tin can with a rock in it....

Yeah, I like driving my SC so much more even though its slow as nuts. I can't wait to boost it.

slider2828 · 05-14-2009, 03:24 PM

Tune the same? condition of motor the same?

s15specR · 05-14-2009, 03:31 PM

S13 vs S14 motor stock setup other than the s13 had Greddy Intake Mani.

slider2828 · 05-14-2009, 04:20 PM

ECU tune I meant, is it the same? Cause man changing the ignition map really changes a lot of things.

I bought the GT3071R from phoenix turbo. It was a bolt on for sr20, so it's
a T2 flange. Internally gated (WG actuator not included). .86A/R if I
remember correctly and was rated at 550HP at 35lbs?

Here's the info OB.

Very good info. I now have a very good direction to go in with trying to hit 400whp. Took me damn near 3 days to read fully though haha.

I agree. This thread is full of great information. I've definately gotten a few ideas for things to try when I buy my .64. Thank you everyone for your contributions.

deukalionS14 · 05-25-2009, 12:12 PM

hey guys i went to Steveshadows to have him tune my car but i had problems with the power FC..we chose to run the car on the dyno with the JWT tune n i had MASSIVE knockage (lol made that up) @ 15psi. so we lowered it to 11.5 and made 315whp on a dyno dynamics dyno...WTF?! what is 18psi with his tune going to net me?! we shall see once i get shit sorted out!!
!
The timing was a little off and he adjusted it accordingly. I cant wait to get my hands on a power fc that will work and see the magic!!!! +1 for steve!! after he put played with it 11psi felt stronger than 15psi muahaha

deukalionS14 · 05-29-2009, 09:10 PM

i found out the issue and I'm going back to Steveshadows this Sunday for my tune for sure. im shooting for 350+ on a dyno dynamics dynometer. wish me luck guys!

yea timing being off will cause mad knock.. if you dont get minimum 360hp with a 2871r its because your turbo must be gay!

thats the average with a basic tune..
a really good tune will throw down near 380hp+++

yeah im confident that steve will do a great job with the tune!

im going to a full write up of what has been going on with this car since i've been back.

i'll post up the sheet soon!!

Ralliart4 · 05-30-2009, 12:07 PM

Very good info guys

HPballer76 · 06-04-2009, 12:30 PM

hey guys im going to look at this turbo today. the guy says its a gt2871r but it looks like an s15 turbo to me. can anyone tell me for sure which it is? here is a pic

slider2828 · 06-04-2009, 01:32 PM

I think on the there turbine housing where the exhaust goes through, it should say .86 or .64 look for those markings.

HPballer76 · 06-04-2009, 02:19 PM

alright thanks will do.

anyone else?

sbanzer123 · 06-04-2009, 02:25 PM

if its a gt2871r it is the "gtrs style"

HPballer76 · 06-04-2009, 02:29 PM

^^ yea thats what he said it was. is there any easy way to tell it apart from an s15 turbo?

slider2828 · 06-04-2009, 03:15 PM

Not really, but look on phase2motortrends site or frsport and compare the pictures lol....

HPballer76 · 06-04-2009, 06:56 PM

^^thats where i came to the conclusin that its an s15 turbo.. the difference i saw is that after it says m24 the s15 has 1-1 and the gt2871r has 1-2. are they all like that or is it possible for the gt2871r to have the 1-1?

deukalionS14 · 06-06-2009, 09:43 PM

Has any of you ever heard of a situation where you raise the boost but dont see any measurbale increase in power? i know these turbos are good for up to 21psi but after 13psi there was no increase.

I'm currently trying to find a boost leak some where. perhaps i should find someone to do a leak down test?

slider2828 · 06-06-2009, 11:37 PM

^^^ If you are talking about s15 turbo's after about 13 -15 psi is pretty much efficiency range, anything over is minimal and hurting the turbo period.

On a gt2871R, I have definitely measureable different when settings are changed. Its your tune if it doesn't change. Contact steveshadows and I promise you at 17psi you will shit in your pants.

deukalionS14 · 06-07-2009, 12:44 AM

yeah its on a 2871r. steve tuned the car and i must say it's WAY better than the JWT tune. the power band is smoother and it's crazy how it might not "feel" as "fast" it is in fact faster.

He had the car putting out 326whp on a DD dyno at 12psi but for some reason after he would raise the boost no power gains were seen. this is something that we were all stumped about and he has some ides on what i could be and is helping me figure it out.

i just want to get some opinions of what you guys might think it could be. i'm sure its mechanical and not the tune...i've been searching my ass off and cant find anything!

Hey I am having the same problem but its more like 14ish psi - there is no change from 14-21 psi in power for me and we cant figure it out either. Please post your findings

mechanical timing being off? use a timing light?
