"Yep Chris, I think me and you must be the only 2 person in the world using this dino... Well, you were using the dino... " MEE TOO

ar looks shit hot, luv it, did you get the guards, or did they come with it?

Thanks guys..

Well, good news and bad news...

Bad news is the car didn't make it on the dyno today.

Good news is that we will get the car on the dyno with a full remap about 3 weeks time.

I'll get some better pics once I get the car clean up. :D

No, when the car came into the country it had a cracked piston and missfired badly on 13 psi on the dyno. It made 320rwhp on 10psi, which led me to believe that the 500rwhp at 20 psi the car was meant to make(without being broken)Tell you what though lag city and a missfire dont make for a fast car, probably a 14 sec car if that. Now its getting a 3litre, cams, portd head, inlet manifold and autronic w/CDI Hope to reduce the lag to something acceptable.

After a nice "hard" and long drive last night, all I can say is that the turbo isn't that bad.

Missing about 1000rpm worth of response compare to modern equal, but once on boost the response is not bad at all.

If you are in the 5000rpm range, rapid on off boost is very responsive...

But since we don't cruise at 5000rpm range... I am seriously looking into a GT4088R. :D

Right, just thought I update you guys.

Ran a dyno on a Dyna Pack, only had 2 so I had to disengage the 4WD system and run it RWD.

All the numbers are at the HUB.

I ran it 1.47Bar, made 573 bhp at 7500RPM

I ran it 1.55Bar, made 597 bhp at 7500RPM

However, It ran lean on the top at 1.55Bar and therefore the power drop right off after 6500RPM or so.

The redline is set 7500RPM, so thats the issue too.

I think the Turbo can easily make 650bhp at the hub at the top end with a redline around 8200.

The turbo should be good up to 1.8Bar.

So there you are, ancient turbo with not so ancient output. :D

    • Nah it factory manual not sure about ratio but it looks like there’s been some work at the rear 
    • so I need a new speedo cable 
    • Throwing my spoon to the soup here a bit.  When I installed a 044 back in 2012, along with the direct power mod, the car became very difficult to start. To a point I burned one starter motor as I was late for work and tried to get the thing going. With some tuning and careful use of gas pedal when cranking it became bearable. Trying to make this short as possible, but the 044 died after 2-3 years, after which I went with an AEM 320lph pump, which also died after about 4 years to my dismay. After that I went with a Nismo pump, and while trying diagnose an emissions problem, I noticed for the first time that my fuel pressure was 5bar/72psi on idle, and that removing the vacuum line did nothing. After monitoring the situation, and removing the direct power feed and going back to FPCM in attempts to remedy it, I noticed there was fuel in the pressure regulator vac line. Kept the FPCM, installed AEM external regu and the car became sooo much better in every way, including starting. And I had driven it like it was for 11 years.. Anyway, I agree these are likely two different problems, and the FP problem you just haven't noticed before. I do not know much about haltecs, but what first came to mind was the CAS, which probably is not there any more. So how is the wiring from haltec to gauge cluster? How is the battery voltage and alternator?
    • Your car was auto before? You have different diff ratio (auto vs manual i think? or n/a and turbo?)
    • +1 for getting a screen off alibaba, CarPlay/Android Auto is vastly better than whatever navigation cars had 10 years ago. I got an Android screen for my 2015 BMW, huge difference. Fully compatible with factory stuff including iDrive controls.
