with graph aswell..im very happy with how it goes..


304 atw
car gave me a bloody nightmare for the last 3 months but that blast past a scooby was well worth it..he even stoped to say very nice mate very nice indeed

 

R5FORD

how comes it says RS500 on the print out.... fookin aussies

 

yh and i told him to change it but noo still did it second round time

 

no one cares

 

cool ...

how did you go with the compressor surge issues?

Is that at 24 psi?

 

peaking at 23..holding 22 mate..

boost was going to be up'd a lil but the injectors were maxing out..

still got that stupid flutter..made sure theres no air likes so not really sure what it is

 

Looks good that does, bit odd seeing KW!!
We are still in old language in the uk.
tabetha

 

cheers mate

well pleased with it..

yh and in the uk they still use fly wheel figures

 

The rollers I use give out both wheels and flywheel, using coast down, I am never bothered about the power anyway, just the torque curve and afr/boost.
tabetha

 

well done mate,

 

cheers bullet..been a long road but got there in the end..a urge for more power is on the verge

 

always will be buddy.i remember when harvey stg 3'd mine from standard.he came back chucked me the keys and said go on see what you think.i took it gave it a pasting,came back and said yeah goes well but it aint quick enough for me. all he said was "cunt, it never will be"

 

IT'S SURGE - how many more times do you want telling ?

 

2 more at the wheels than me , good power though m8.

 

mike how many more times you want to tell me lol

ksa cossie..would be down to has the heavier right foot out of me and you then your car looks better tho

 

Nice power mate! I did wonder when it said 'RS500' on the graph! lol

 

yh he just put that down..out here they think its the only cosworth..dont really know about the saphs

 

Was yours being tuned or just a power run.

 

tuned mate..gone from stage 1 to stage 3 with a t34.48 that blew up..now gone for a roller bearing turbo

 

Cool,mine was just a power run still needs a good set up.

 

mine needs more boost but injectors were reaching there limits i think..

think i need light blues and aroud 400bhp? lol

 

Are you on dark greens?

 

yhep dark greens mate

 

And they're maxed out ? I'm gonna run more boost with mine .

 

Nice little setup mate.

What turbo?

Kev,

When karl set my car up, he said it's now 350BHP give or take 5 each way. Same for torque!!

He also commented about how he wouldn't want to push them anymore and that if I wanted a bit more power then come back when I'd re-wired the fuel pump, fitted an 044 Group A pump, and got a set of greys

Re-wired the fuel pump just to air on the side of safety, I'm perfectly happy with the car now though

 

I've rewired the pump wiring and fitted an 044 pump charlie.

 

I think it was more the green injectors that he was refering to that he didn't want to push anymore

 

Strange,cos when we were checking the afr it was quite rich top end Stu at MSD said if i had the fuel it would be ok.

 

What exhaust housing do you have mate?

I've got the .63 and this maxes the greens out more than the .48 and .55 due to more air...

Mine runs a 28psi spike then down to 25/26ish then eventually goes down to 22psi for the limiter

 

Cool

 

Got a .48 housing m8,spikes at 26 and tails off to about 21 psi.

 

Quite similar to Karls gunship conversion then. I for one wouldnt want to run any more boost than that on Greens with a 0.63.

Mine runs on the Siemens 550cc injectors with about 30psi peak, and a 26 psi hold, which works very well

JJ

 

I know I wouldn't want to either It's top notch to drive though

 

Sounds good mate! Mind you - are you getting the best out of your 0.63? You would be amazed at the difference of the extra couple of psi at the upper end if nicely mapped.

JJ

 

Problem not, and Karl did mention this as well, I wish he'd told me before I went to see him and I'd have bought some greys first

Mind you, before I took it to him I'd only just rebuilt the engine (I'd ran it in for about 1200 miles) and it was only running 19psi, so initially it was mega with a 28psi spike and 26psi held for most of the rev range

Still is quick too IMO

 

How does karl manage to only lose 2psi from the spike ? Mine tails off 5psi .

 

My mistake, just found where I wrote about it at the time

 

Didn't notice that myself lol.

 

This can also depend on the boost controller as well as the turbo - often the turbo is not the weak link
