Got the dyno results, pretty pleased but i think there is a little more in it.

The differance is GREAT though.

Here are the B4 and after graphs.

B4 (red) = Previous exhaust and K&N pod

After (blue) = New exhaust and BMC pod

Power: (Average of about 20-30rwkw gain throughout the mid range)

Torque: (Over 1000N of tractive torque gained at 122km/h >_< )

Need a new boost controller as the factory solinoid is unable to keep the boost steady with the wolf controlling it :) . So once this is done, i will get a final tune. Boost drops to about 16psi at peak, but is a little wavey all the way through.

Thanks guys!

Picked it up today and boy did i enjoy it :dry:

The delivery is very smooth, but sharp/fast. Definately noticed the differance in 2nd, 3rd, and 4th, the rev limiter just comes on so quickly :D , can't wait for DECA and the coming cruises.

SS8 Gohan: I truely beleive at least 90% of the gain is from the exhaust, but i have seen other cars just change pods to BMC and gained about 3-5rwkw across the curve. BMC filters are top quality and aren't cheap, apparently they are used in the F1 cars, they have great flow and filter very well.

Jetdat: Very interesting!

As you know i am using the smaller brother (gtrs) so that would probably explain the steep curve. But i also have tomei poncams and head porting, which is probably why i am making the same power and more usable power; as the power is bought on earlier and is held longer. Not sure how much boost you are running but mine peaks at 18.5psi, then tappers down to 16psi buy the time it makes peak power.

yeah i think the cams make a difference but smaller turbo also gives the curve some steepness..

cams are next on my list so hope to get improvement once installed..

look forward to some 1/4 mile times from yours and mine.. :D

BNC filter setup it awsome.

Its a sealed unit...flow really well and allow you to duct straight from the front bar...

Al who did u get it from, I spoke tot the BMC dist. not long back...he had to order it in and I never called him back. PM the details man...or talk to you at DECA.

Cheers.

      They care about emissions, and cost the most. Save weight where possible, and make manufacturing easier. Less material also let's the engine transfer heat to water quicker, and bring the engine up to temp quicker, better for emissions and getting them past their warranty period.

      I was under the impression the reason why OEMs are going with solutions like relatively thin "right-sized" cylinder walls with technologies like PTWA and open deck is because they care a lot about whatever marginal knock margin benefits they get from that vs the structural rigidity benefits of a closed deck block and thicker cylinder walls. I also see some weird stuff like plastic inserts in the water jacket around the cylinders to try and equalize cylinder wall temperatures. re: the PRP blocks and heads at the end of the day it's hard to know what is and isn't going to work there, just have to see what the initial buyers say about it.

      Which is why I didn't mention that hardness testing, and specifically mentioned the bore and deck thickness testing. Yeah, not really. The bore temperature will be a lot more even around the top half inch or so, where the material distribution is dominated by the deck, and which is the only place where the bore surface temperature heating any gas in the cylinder is likely to have any effect on detonation. Think about it. Another inch or so down the bore, you might have a hotter spot. The gas there might get a bit hotter, then the piston rises squeezes that gas away from there at high speed and mixes it with other gas from nearby. Instant dilution of the problem. I'd be surprised if it was an issue at any time other than in racing engines or OEM dev engines being run at the ragged edge of tuning. Say what now?

      https://dsportmag.com/the-tech/education/engine-tech-material-hardness-testing/ The PRP testing on block hardness I'm not sure how much it actually can be trusted. The thinner cylinder walls on RBs is a bit of a problem vs 2JZ but it really depends on the design goal. Siamesed cylinder bores like a 2JZ cause uneven cylinder wall temps too, which means a bit of distortion induced by that + the hotspot can affect knock margin. Something that actually gives me a bit of pause with the PRP block, whether super thick cylinder walls are going to keep it from being drop-in compatible on an otherwise OEM rebuild.

      Yeah very valid point. I am waiting for one of the other tuners to come back from vacation so he can help me a bit when the cat is installed again. In the meantime I am going to finish up my polishing and ceramic coating that I have started myself.    N45 Dr Beasley product is highly recommended for a paint primer / polisher. Using this EXO Gtechniq also for the ceramic but next time might use the light serum before hand also. Looks great.
