Just need to work my avcr out then its off to art for a run or seven.

Gonna wind the boost up as far as i can go and im hoping for at least 420.

Its running TT T38
Ported head by me
BD14 inlet
STD exhaust cam
2wd exhaust manifold
4x4 inlet
7.2:1 cosworth pistons
865cc siemens injectors
044 pump
Mr stu chip

Did run it at 32 psi last monday and it felt very strong that was via bleed valve

So tomorrow some proper boost control and a fine adjustment of fueling should hopefully make some good power.

Now covered 350 miles and its seen boost from 2 miles.

Trying the brake it in hard aproach.

 

All the best for tomorrow Pete

I posted my 1/4 times on your other thread.

Steve.

 

Where are you getting it RR'd?

Good luck

 

Best of luck with it fella, if you are running 2 bar plus I'd be surprised if you didn't see that.

Can you adjust the boost on an off the shelf chip? Surely it'll need live mapping or a custom chip to suit?

 

nothing wrong with bleed valves mate,hope it produces the numbers for you

 

good luck mate hope it all goes good for you.let us know the figures

 

You got any results then Pete ???

Hope all went well mate

Steve.

 

446 bhp and 400 lb ft

Thats my guess

Paul

 

Pete would be well happy with that im sure

But going from his 1/4 mile times he ain't got that unless he turned the boost up. His car put on just .23mph more than mine over the last 1/8th and i only have 372bhp.

Steve.

 

On a T38? I recon more like 440BHP and 360ish Lbs/ft, for some reason T38's make crap torque compared to a T34.

 

Your car is lighter than a saffand all those years at the traffic lights in you cortina paid off for you good starts

Paul

 

............this is why R/R's are shite...................mine made 390ft/lbs at only a 27psi spike...............

 

I can't see how the 4i is lighter than a saph, must only be a few kgs in it ?

I gave the last 1/8th because traction is not a issue, at the 1/8th we was only .07mph different. So it's all down to power for that last 1/8th.

Steve.

 

What RR though?

 

If its EA rollers, He'll have 500bhp

 

(i ment it to sound as u ment it)............i made 370 ft/lbs at well lane @ 26psi......and 390ft/lbs on dastek rollers @ 27psi.........

 

I hope you ain't blown it up Pete

Steve.

 

right lads i did it on my locl tuners very realistic non "happy" rolling road and she made after a slight fueling tweak 384 at the wheels at 5900 rpm at 30 psi held.

now im gonna increase boost to 34 and deresrict exhaust as it has a silly restricivr middle section, we decided fuelling was good via stu chip but a live map would perfect it, with more boost and exhaust mod maybe 400 at wheels eh



im happy tho for what i have spent

 

No mate its very healthy hopefully ill bump into you this year


lads take piss cos its so rough looking haha but thats the idea

 

 

mate thats an awful pic

 

Pete, that bloody graph is crap. I can't read a thing.

Mine made 316bhp @ wheels on a Dyno Dynamics RR with 372bhp flywheel figure, so with your 384 @ wheels that should be about 440bhp flywheel

What torque did it make ?

Turbo works well then

Steve.

 

oh yes it sure does, torque was 351 lb ft only problem is my apexi seems to max out at 30 psi

 

not the best pic i were slightly pissed last night

 

Wish i had torque like that paul, mine doesnt start winding up untill 4000 rpm its like a friggin motox bike

 

Still your near your figure so thats good 400 atw is a good fun car

Nice one pete for a home built motor

 

cheers paul im happy for now, just finished my last job so im gonna do some more running in miles

 

Nice figures m8.

 

cheers mate


only problem is its so top endy nothing down bellow

what do you lot think a gt30 would do to the characteristics

 

 

I will give you Ł500 for your T38

Steve.

 

Just seen your sig Pete LOL, keep trying

Steve.

 

Mine also made 351lb/ft

But mine was only at 24.7psi

Steve.

 

Probably make it worse!

 

Steve your such a show off and very cheeky too

Ordering another cam today, im gonna swap my 14 inlet to the exhaust side and order a bd15 inlet cam.

 

Thats correct mate they do top out at around 2BAR unfortunately!

 

wonder if theres any way i can trick it with a bleed valve hmmmm

 

Pete are you using std cam pulleys?if yes get a set of verniers and dial the cams in to perfection

on my old pinto efi i gained 28bhp for 1 mm of cam movement

The bd 14 i was told it would gain bhp but lose torque

Paul

 

If you did it would have a tendency to spike wont it!

 

So why am i such a show off and cheeky then Pete ???????

Steve.
