most rwkw with stock turbo & cooler???


Recommended Posts

I agree 105%.

Similar to the story of my small mods trying to max out my stock ECU + Turbo rather then just taking the easy step of whacking on a bigger turbo.

Maximise what you currently have until you can't get anything more out of it, -then- start modding.

/QUOTE] i was looking at the 200 mark, i would be happy with that,i have a dual stage turbo controller,so most of the time i run around at low boost!!!!!

TufR33,

Sorry for not answering the original q's. I get on my soap box a bit :(

A hiflow would be good, a modest sized intercooler upgrade (same flow as turbo spec). Fuel pump, reg and s-afc.

Nigasnt,

Ask yourself this (re: driverskill) : " how hard is it to drive in a straight line?". Not hard is it. :(

Don't go to a track day till you can or there will be trouble! :D

TUFR33, think you will have trouble getting there with a stock coola. Turbo should be OK, as several people have had over 200rwkw with the stocky.

You should be just ok with the fuel system if it is healthy to begin with, but will be at its limits.

You most probably will need some sort of management, unless you have one of these freakish series II ECUs, but time will tell.

I have just over 200 on a dyno dynamics dyno (tilbrooks), with power fc, EBC, pod (with partition and CAI), full exhaust - heat wrapped dump, FMIC, Z32 afm and 0.85bar boost. My injectors are on their last legs, as I guess my fuel pump will be too.

Hope this gives you some sort of idea - but there is more than one way to skin a cat, (or should the experession be updated to gut a cat...:( ) and there will always be slight differences car to car.

Lastly, you will have to get a new clutch - best do this one early as it is a bit disappointing (personal experience:p ) when you mod then cant drive it properly, or tune it properly till you upgrade the clutch.

Just my 0.02 hope it helps

If you already have a mines chip, I wouldnt be expecting too much, but a SAFC2 definately wont hurt.

I believe some lads on here have quoted gains in the region of 10-20rwkw+, but I am not sure how much boost or with or without coola etc so I wont try and bullshit you - I really dont know.

Perhaps someone else might be better qualified to answer that one????

theres more involved in a 1/4 run that just driving in a straight line. U r just very moddest!

i so wanna see u run that time at calder, i dont think u can do it down here in melbourne

ha ha.. you are funny.:D

I would take you up on the challengen but, melborne is a fair way off.

Why don't you think I can do it, after all it's just a drag strip?

Its ON!

In the white corner...with 183rwkw and weighing in at a conservative :) u get the idea

Nothing wrong with a little friendly competition. Once I figure out the perfect launch and add a couple more mods then I will join in the fun. [that's a promise and a threat :)]

It is more fun, calder is good for a time slip etc but not as fun as what he said. I am always ready - u guys have a lot more mods though...but I dont care...

sorry - that was slightly off-topic!

just adding something more on-topic. mine has recorded 182rwkw with stock turbo and cooler ~ oh and just about stock everything else too :)

[only mods are pod filter, 2-3psi increase and cat-back]

    • This isn't for lotsa powers, and time and effort isn't even a thing I'm concerned about The whole reason is "Just because fun", and "Just because fun" is what I do And whilst there are other kits, with better and more modern turbos (Rev9 use the same Kraken manifold I believe.....EDIT... nope, the Kraken is a cast jobbie, the REv9 uses welded up stainless, plus $8000 AUD before shipping, installation and tuning) Where else in Sydney can I do a drive in drive out with the after sales support that MX5 Mania give My Turbo 86 made around 200kwatw on a AVO turbo kit that Pulse fitted, and it was over 100kg heavier than the MX5, but it was a blast to drive around the streets, until I crashed it.....DOOH, so somewhere around 200 ish level and some whooshy noises and I'll be happy driving to work, the shops, or heading into the country with Jackie for Devonshire tea So, thanks Dose for your info, it sounds like a 0.64 will be fine for what I'm after👍 The only real racing I do nowadays is to the toilet

    • Hey @Butters, did you end up getting this clutch in ? I have just ordered to a uniclutch track to go in my getrag 6 speed that’s in my BNR 32     
    • I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive
