Yeah I thought the VET had larger valves. Port design is slightly different. But I've never seen a 20V head. I know they changed the ports slightly, but to what extent I don't really know.
A friend of mine had a C5 Z06 corvette. He had a rear-mount twin turbo setup on it, with small turbos. But he used a huge NA cam because he loved the sound of the lopey idle. He figured a huge cam ...
No, I think the engine is swallowing 500whp worth of air. But perhaps pumping losses are too high and VE starts to drop too fast on the top end from the backpressure building.
Look for gear stack replacements for the Evo IX MR with the 6 speed. That is the same transmission as the Spec V. The 5 speed is a different animal iirc.
I didn't have to take my crossmember off. ...
You don't have to replace the rod. The rods change color at a pretty low temp and you have to get heat over 800*F to take the heat treat out, the discoloration is supposedly from the nickle in the ...
One thing I can' figure out... Why is injector duty (740cc) well over 90%, Maf Voltage 4.96V, and only 480whp? I would figure 500whp but the dyno disagrees :(
I am not sure it is a big deal if you rev out the low lobes. I mean, I did it for a while without issues before I got VET cams. Not that I condone it, but I don't think you will have any issues. th...
Ya, looking at it like that my powerband is larger. But still, if revs were kept up I bet it would stay over 500whp for another 1krpm or so. So If he revved out to say, 8500rpm, he would prob still...
Literally, the only thing holding that bearing together is a plastic snap. When you press the bearing together, the plastic holds the pieces together. There is a snap ring/retainer ring that is sup...
