a bone stock DET 240/silvia like you would buy from a dealership in japan is not really that quick. They probably run high 14's or so just out of the box. Everyone hears SR20DET and they are like WHOAAA but on 5-6 psi and stock exhaust they're nothing special.
a JRSC 6 psi lude is a good match for a stock T25 bpu DET powered 240 @ around 12-14 psi.
BTW i rode in my friends classic SER like mine with a t3/t04E @ 10 pounds tonight and the topend was NUTS! He trapped 106 on the puny stock T25 @ 14 psi, i'm more than willing to bet he can break 115 now. Man i can't wait to get my turbo parts on mine.
At stock boost with the basic bolt ons that most people do when doing the DET swap the type R is going to get ripped 9 times out of 10. My dad just happens to own an R and i can tell you even when my car was running like shit on the stock DE ECU with the T25 and many a ghetto rigged components, i could have still pulled the type R. There are a few freakishly quick bolt on R's out there but they are few and far between. Your average type-R with its average driver is going to probly run in the mid 14s maybe a bit lower if they get lucky.
When i trapped 106 i was only at 9psi on the t25, not 14.
