    Aussie Dyno Ladder

    oh i forgot to say... with the new turbo at 18psi (couldn't go further cause of fuel starvation with this turbo) i made 243.1kw atw... at only 5,000RPM (couldn't go further cause of bad AFR) new pump, surge tank etc and we'll lift the boost

    yes that could be a very good analogy... the spring is only taking up slack so your mind starts thinking that "hey i'm not revving it 11K" but then when you start thinking about the fact that under 20 or more pounds of boost that first second and third gear are all blurs and that the revving...

    Is water cooling really necessary?

    from what i know of forced induction and from everything i have heard from both representatives of IHI and Garret on most turbo's coolant lines are not necessary. The guys at IHI i know for sure say that i will prolong life a little bit bit simply because not for cooling, but because when you...

    hey there everyone... i currently won't have an up to date dyno chart for another week but my early early turbo dyno was at 138.9kw atw and i know that bora's latest dyno was around 200.3kw at only 20psi so i'll have to wait and see what 32psi does...

    it is solved... i explained the fix earlier... drill small hole in block, dowel and your done... its an utter c*nt because obviously its an engine out job to do it properly, (non-backyard mechanics) the thing i would like to know is where our tensioner came from... was it from the fs-de in...

    we decided to watch it very closely for now... but everyone i have spoken too agrees that the acceleration at big boost will create heaps more slack and the spring rate may not be good enough to pull it in quick enough

    Steps to get 300WHP

    well i am running 675cc bosche injectors through a custom fuel rail, and they should be good for the 30-32psi we're planning on running. we have custom CV's on the way, still deciding on a decent LSD. We run haltech's over here as the build quality is excellent, the resolution on tuning is...

    OR you could just use the dowel and save yourself 3 months of experimentation... the tensioner is adjustable once you have the dowel in... using the hex key you can spin the bearing to tension it... so it is still adjustale... just rock hard...

    thats the other solution... but do you know anyone who makes a stronger spring...? cause i sure as hell dont... it would be impossible to even try until we knew the exact speck of the tension on the stock item...
