Very laggy Cosworth? Will a cam help?
#42
My mate just bought a Saff with 402 bhp but it's very laggy
Spec is
200 block mahle Pistons
4wd head/standard cams
4wd inlet
Turbo technics t38.63
Light blues
All the normal exhaust/3bar/500 cooler etc
Doesn't seem to one on full boost till 4-4.5k rpm
Well I ended up melting it on the way home (no4)
Will a bd14 inlet cam help with the lag or make it worse?
I take it bd10/s are no good for this spec?

The 400s are quite well suited to a T34 as you can run the Turbo flat out and still fuel them safe.
Its bad practice really to spec a fuel system with injectors too small and out flowed by the chosen turbo, the TT38 wants to pump around 500bhp, so i would be putting it on 83s rather than relying on capping boost.

The t34 has a 370bhp compressor the tt38 has a 500+ bhp compressor so blues were perfect for your spec as they were actually the injector used on the ACE escort cosworth GPA Rally car
