Most power seen on stock/99 twins?

Brett · August 06, 2012, 11:59:44 AM

I thought there used to be a thread on this?

Anyway... what is the most power people have seen from the FD twin turbo setup? (Using either 92 or 99 spec turbos, no hybrids) :Talking1

I think as soon as you get to about 380bhp and it doesn\'t say \'BNR stage 3\' on the side of them, things start to break I think

I think it\'s somewhere near 420 at the wheels in the uk but they were using a lot of water to get it to those numbers.

Jason from super7 achieved 400 FWHP.

Going back some years now "Warthog" used to be up there with the highest powered twin at around 380-390 atw I think at around 1.2bar

Blimey, that brings back memories. Best I saw was 380 at the flywheel on my twins at 1.05bar. They lasted a good year too !

That\'s what I was thinking of. Over guessed a bit though

speaking about the stock twins and from what I know, the 99 TypeR/RS/SpiritR twins and earlier versions are not the same.

If the question is about the 99 twins, you need to tell us which version you mean. If talking about the AT and RB version, them are the same as the post 96 (N3C1) twins, if you are talking bout Type R/RS/SpiritR twins (N3G1), is a different thing.

The older one and post 99 Type RB and AT type twins (N3C1) will support the most power (over 400 ponies).

Myself, the highest power I reached with stock twins was 402HP at fly.

Hope this helps!

Thanks Iwan - that\'s a good breakdown of info

i was getting 400fwhp at 1 bar on my non seq twins. i had re worked and matched the manifold and hotside housings

i am a little bit confused with this now, i have a 94 type rz fd what kind of twins would be on that? i know running higher boost is not good for any rotary but what am i likely to get away with my 94 engine on about 27000 miles from new?

Recently? The same car that also made 385ft/lbs of torque?

Don\'t believe the "you can\'t run high boost on rotary" myth. I used to think that. It\'s more a case of we don\'t really need to run more than 1 bar to make great power. But many people run double that. All depends on setup and mapping.

Will66 · August 06, 2012, 11:07:01 PM

Provided you can keep it cool you can run quite a bit of boost. Heat is the enemy and by keeping it at bay you can make bucket loads of power out of a rotary.

BlitzBoy · August 07, 2012, 03:24:02 PM

Obviously you need fuelling and cooling mods to support 0.8 BAR plus boost and above.
At 1.2 BAR stock twins dont last too long
