Would stock dynos be ok? I mean, if you can see the baseline powerbands and such, wouldn't you be able to tell which one is better? This would help this "quarrel" a little more right?

Here's why I'd go SR20 over RB20 any day...Each has 2.0L of displacement, the SR is a lot lighter. The SR has been proven numerous times up to 545whp on stock bottom end. Want time slips of what an SR20DET can do? Here's mine from the other weekend. I'm the car in the left lane.


The SR has basic bolt-ons.

• Custom Intake
• 3" exhaust
• clutch
• Fuel pump
• fmic
• boost controller
• drag radials

No weight reduction, no race gas, untuned (no fuel management/afc, etc.)

i wouldnt' say the sr20 has been proven several times to 545rwhp, once or twice that i know of... point is, rb20 swap is just as cheap as sr, id go with the rb20 over sr anyday... but thats why there are rb people and sr people... who really cares?

Was the right lane Rb20?? How much money in mods and what are they?

So nobody who has swapped thier engines have tuned thier cars and gone to a dyno

jonpowell

The closest dyno to me is about a 3-4 hour drive, just never had the desire to drive that far....

Now there is one 45min to 1 hour away but I dont have my RB anymore. boo hoo

Fireplug

Haha, no...not quite...It was a Supra with single turbo upgrade.

That last part reads like lyrics to a song.
Let me get this straight. You want somebody to pay for your dyno? And your car is not up and running? Why stop there? Ask someone who really wants to see your dyno numbers to fund your project.

Does "duz" mean "that"? And what do you mean "it comes with war"? And the last part, "$200 for a turbo...and you don't care ...and don't expect much from it"? Are you saying your willing to spend $200 for a junk turbo that may not work?

I want 12's from my RB20 swap and I will get 12's. I know the potential is there. I've rode in the RB20 skyline and I've ridden in many of our local customers SR20 swapped cars that have both brought home 13.5 and 13.6 1/4 mile slips. The RB has one problem in stock form, it's giant sized ports and all the good breathing engine parts are shoved thru the same turbo as the Redtop S13. Sure it's ball bearing, but it's too damn small to push any harder. The block is built like a brick $hithouse and I wouldn't sweat putting 20 pounds to the stock internals. About the ebay mani I was looking too but decided no, the ports are ok on the manifold and on the turbo side match up to my 60 trim T3 exhaust side on my T3/T4. I'm going to drive this everyday and I don't want a cracked manifold to deal with. The stock SR mani is a joke it looks like a Honda HF manifold
