Also, it should be noted that since the turbo is on its way out the boost hits 9psi and falls back off to 7. I am betting with an optimized setup and good turbo he will be in the range of 230whp on...
On this particular setup, he made 191whp after relocating maf back to pull-through. Did 2 pulls on blowthru and 2 on pullthru. BIG difference. The setup wasn't optimized on the blow thru setup, but...
It was a simple swap, from one setup to the next. Blow off valve was stiff enough to not leak under boost. And this was on stock MAF. The numbers show what they show on this...
If I were to build a full race setup I would use my engine with a HUGE turbo. GT4202R and go full standalone. Then I would just see what it will push on a stock head with just valve springs and re...
It's all about flow, not valve size. I doubt the stock valves are even much of a restriction unless you are flowing a ton. I guess if you are going for maximum power on 10psi you would benefit 10wh...
That makes sense, and it's a good read. I remember my buddy saying the F22 motor in the S2K was garbage and responded poorly to mods, but it just took the right parts to work together to make power...
You can relocate it but you won't get very good results. The knock sensor placement is a very precise thing. If you have a JWT computer you may be able to relocate it, but you might as well get rid...
um, do you hear knocking or pinging? If not, then you are prob ok. I ran my dizzy advanced all the way on the dyno to see what it would do. I gained tons of bottom end power with no detonation, but...
Right, if you go to a parts store the gauge sensor is listed at the temp switch. If you go in and ask for a sensor you will prob get the actual coolant temp sensor and not the one for the guage.
Is there really a diff in the sensors? I am still using my VE sensor that came with the motor. hmmmm. If your stuff is boiling it is def overheating. I would do a block check to make sure the head ...
I think the turbo is prob ok on shaft play, but you may need a restrictor in line to prevent too much oil pressure in the turbo. The oil seal is more like a piston ring than a "seal", and it is sti...
Don't be discouraged. My compression tester from autozone said I only had 100psi on my VET. Car runs too good to be that low on compression. The starter was going bad and barely cranking the car ov...
Everyone wants the cheapest parts, what do you expect? They all go to mexico and get "remanned" and sent here with little checking, poor quality controll, and inferior electronics.
Cams will make power with a bigger motor, but only so far. A short stroke engine takes advantage of high rpm breathing efficiency, with less strain on parts. You can add displacement with the bigge...
In most cases no, but in this case I think it is a very reasonable comparison. Both motors flow nearly the same, but the VE has bigger valves and better flow. I think it is a perfect comparison and...
I will have this motor for another year or so at least. When it comes time for a new one I am going to boost this one to death on the dyno. I am thinking of q16 and 35psi heh heh.
So far I am working on 11000 miles on this setup and I have had zero issues with the exception of burning through my rubber coolant lines. I have lots of heat wrap now ;)
^^^ right on. I feel like I am left in the dust by all my friends and their faster cars, but I have put more miles on my car in the last week than they have in the past month, or two months even!
