Super underrated channel on RB info. Pls don’t stop making videos.

[@hellraizer06]

This guy is full of information like an encyclopedia

Hey Mann I’ve just picked up a new garret hotside. Noticed it’s only a .48 exhaust housing after being told it was a .63 You know everything when it comes to tuning an RB20DET so I came to ask, will the .48 be too much restriction to hit the 400hp mark? Thanks heaps 🙏 love you’re videos I’ve watched them all multiple times haha

[@NickBrun]

That will be a major restriction bro, like it's going to choke. If you want 400hp realistically .63 at the minimum, and if you want to rev it out to 8000 .82. I am using a .82 for my build, albeit forged, cams, and valve springs.

[@STNCWRKS]

@ seeet as, was thinking it would be way too restrictive My turbo online comes factory with a .63 and is rated for 550hp. So I’ve replaced it with a .63 as I don’t want massive lag. I want boost to come on quick The rb20 is a high rev motor but I’ve heard keeping it around the 7.5k revs you’ll still make 400ish range but a tad more reliable

[@zyoungson215]

Nice to see Rb20s being pushed to their potential. They were slept on where I am from (NZ). No one really pushed them past 300hp, or they were blown up in short order and swapped for an rb25.

[@DriftNick]

Everybody in Aus and NZ already learned 20 years ago if you want 350+hp then RB25 is just much better.

[@ConvectionConnoisseur]

I love this channel! Such inspiration for my R32 gtst. Does that blitz intercooler also provide the "in engine bay" portions of piping from turbo outlet and cold side? Or just to the 2 holes from underneath?

[@SleeperTuning]

Thanks so much. The Blitz intercooler kit doesn't supply all the piping you see in this video, but will fit with the factory setup. We had the turbo outlet pipe and the J pipe from the throttle body fabricated , the rest was included with the kit. Good luck with your R32!

[@Portorrro86]

The arashi turbo I purchased with an adjustable internal waste gate (via springs) for my RB25 works great and even better with the boost solenoid. 18 lbs. on a 25G turbo (factory style bolt onto stock manifold) making 467WHP with the same basic upgrades mentioned here in this video. There are also, adjustable mechanical waste gate for internally gated turbos from many reputable manufactures that simply bolt on to almost any turbo. Much cheaper solution. Far less headache as well. All you have to do is make sure you know the capacity of your turbo so that you don’t over run it. This would be the best option for lower HP applications on a decent budget. Hope this info helps anyone.

Crazy part is sedans are usually the same weight and or lighter than the coupes, i know sounds weird lol

[@zyoungson215]

Sedans are supposedly lighter but flexy chassis

[@EndZee]

How much hp can take rb20det(rp71c#2) transmission

[@SleeperTuning]

Not sure, but we have a bunch running at 400 whp

[@CarMotiveYT]

How much would all this setup cost?

[@SleeperTuning]

Every car is different depending on current status of the car, power goals, budget etc. If you'd like a personalized quote contact us through our website sleepertuning.com/contact-us and we'll be happy to get an estimate to ya!

[@nissanloveR32]

What kind of ignition coils are those? Do you recommend upgrading them?

[@SleeperTuning]

Those are r8 coils.(already installed) We recommend the R35 coils

[@nissanloveR32]

@@SleeperTuning on it. Thank you very much

[@asharamdeo4014]

Would the stock head gasket and studs last on 17-20 lbs of boost pressure.

[@SleeperTuning]

its more so the power level and quality of the tune and setup of the car than the actual boost level. We run over 20 psi an excess of 400whp completely stock engine no problem.

[@asharamdeo4014]

@@SleeperTuning thanks for sharing your wealth of knowledge.

[@DriftNick]

Really just luck of the draw, maybe it holds 20 psi, maybe it doesn't, you won't know until you try it, do you want to risk it?

[@Chumwitda240]

I have a RB20DET S14 that I want to make more power to drift I can use all the help I can get 😭🙌🏽

[@monsta6__]

Safe to say I’m still ahead on the stock rb20 leader board 😅

[@nissanloveR32]

What did you make ? I'm coming for ya lol

[@monsta6__]

450 whp

[@nissanloveR32]

@@monsta6__ I'll try my best lol. Stock bottom end? How's she doing at those power levels

[@monsta6__]

Edgar got her riding like a champ! Plan is for me to go top mount by the end of the year and a bigger turbo to push for 500 whp. Sleeper Tuning has a build series on my car under there playlist RB20.

[@nissanloveR32]

I think I seen it..with the white bumper? Does he think the pistons and rods can handle that kinda power on E85

[@connornorlin]

Would your rec a 28 series or g25 550 turbo after around 300-350 hp and a quick spool

[@SleeperTuning]

What manifold are you running
