Taz_Rx Posted April 30, 2008 Author Report Posted April 30, 2008 2.5" from the custom dump back. Have a wanky cannon off egay for the mean time, see how it looks. Quote
Smithius Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 Awsome. I'm very interested in how this thing is going to turn out. Should be interesting how much power you make out of this thing. Just so i don't have to search back through the whole thread, what compression ratio are you running? Quote
Taz_Rx Posted May 1, 2008 Author Report Posted May 1, 2008 (edited) Bout 7.9:1. Big boost, lots of timing!! :jamie: Exhaust is done. Only cooler pipes and tuning to go now. ......and try and work out why my TPS has started doing weird shit, and why the temp sensors think its 170o+C in the engine bay!!!! :rocknroll: Edited May 1, 2008 by Taz_Rx Quote

Taz_Rx Posted June 10, 2008 Author Report Posted June 10, 2008 Small update: did a little bit of work on it on the weekend. Changed the plugs (again) to bp5es, played with the fuel map to try and improve idle- which it did slightly. Also changed all of the ignition map and pulled back the high (50o+) timing. Re-mounted boost controller and fitted actuator lines etc. Oh, and this'l make a couple of peeps happy - Got my new turbosmart Vee-port on Friday!! K&N pod will arrive today. ....yes I have been making some progress lately, mainly because I dropped it off to have the cooler piping done today!!!!! :P Will probably take a couple of days, but should be running boost by the weekend! Drove it there today, and my god is it responsive NA! :wootjump: So for all the peeps who keep PM'ing me for updates....put that in your pipe and smoke it! :P Quote

Taz_Rx Posted June 10, 2008 Author Report Posted June 10, 2008 ah yeah....why didn't I think of that! :P :P Quote
Taz_Rx Posted June 13, 2008 Author Report Posted June 13, 2008 Piping is coming along very nicely. Plans changed a little bit, cooler did have 1.75" in/out, they were cut off and now has 2" pipes and the top one has been angled up towards throttle body. One things for sure - I'm gunna have bugger all lag from the cooler!! Total piping length from turbo to throttle body would be under half a metre!!! Will have it back tonight!! :lolcry: :dance: Quote

Glad to hear the drama with the cooler piping played out alright, I still reckon the donut loop would have been ideal thou, hahahah. :lolcry: Quote
