hello all. i was just wondering what kind of power i will be expecting from my car when i have my new parts on it the spec will be.


standard rst mfi engine with:

Super chipped ecu
Baileys breather
Newman cam lifters and springs
grs inter cooler
t3 turbo


Everything els engine wise is standard. for now.

Turbo and Fueling will be the only thing holding you back Conor. You'd get a safe 160 I'd say with your turbo.

And when i got cossie manigment and t3 stage 3, forged rods ??

Ad4m RST

Run at a bar or so...215-230hp.

AP Clutch & new gearbox next on the list....

Ad4m RST

Bit of a reach there actually, won't get near that without headwork....probably round 200-210hp.

I'd say Muz's 160 is a safe bet.

My spec:
-31 actuator
airtec FMIC
chipped ecu
std turbo
air filter + exhaust
Made 165bhp comfortably @15psi

However the clutch is starting to go at that power. Also, on the way to getting that power I needed to improve parts. Group A coil. magnecore leads etc.. I would advise the same as it will only cause problems further down the line.

RSMK4TURBO

Mine made 165bhp with mods mentioned above with piper 285 t2 cam at just under a bar.

Chris69

depends entirely on wot psi your turbo will do imo.
I managed 171bhp at approx 13psi on a standard turbo,
i'd say 160-180ish

RS1HEN

what sort of boost are you running?

conor.rst

iTrader: (3)

As much as i can with out it be unsafe.

RS1HEN

well...ok

Max you could run, from what i've gathered from ofther peeps, is 16/18 psi on a standard t3

TOMO

the metering head will only supply enough fuel for 14 psi safely anything more than this and your risking engine

+1

mine started to have issues over 16psi. So the Tuners knocked it down to 15 for safety.

RS1HEN

not sure about the fueling, i thought it was when you went above 20psi,

power enginering suggested a 5th injector, stage 3 t3 for 22 psi, 220bhp

nowhere on this thread did other ppl suggest metering probs:

so still unsure!

rickbartlett

does a 5th injector make that much difference then?could u run 20 psi with a 5th injector

RS1HEN

form what i've been lead to believe

you can get it mappable as well, so in effect you get minimum 20% fuel extra pre set to boost levels

muz

Thing is with a 5th injector is they are very crude and the fuel distribution between cylinders is uneven, so pistons 2-3 could be fine but 1 and 4 running lean.

I'm one of those people who thinks if you want 200BHP do a managment swap!

Also metering heads varey so much. Some have maxed out at 12-14PSI others will fuel 18-20 no probs.

my rst made 174 bhp/192 torque at 16 psi wit airtec fmic, chip, full scorpion exaust, t3 turbo, kn filter, standart engine

i hope this helps

exactly what mine made!. However the clutch couldnt hold that torque. hence the 160bhp

Herbo747

Totally agree, you are risking the engine anything over about 12psi imo. and like stated 5th injectors are crude and inconsistant across cylinders. The best thing you can do is push a nice 12 psi, get it set up and enjoy anything upto 160 horse power. enjoy it for what it is else you will have to change other parts, clutch ect.
