Engine Out

[Beer Baron]

farken awesome mate! well done.

refresh my memory, what turbos are you running? you must be very happy with the results.

edit: 315rwkw on just 10psi is awesome, and it looks pretty responsive too. i'm guessing 2530s or similar?

[GTRsean]

Cheers guys.

Yep Richard, 2530's I bought off Slide a while back. I'm stoked it's going so well. All the little things + $$$ add up to get that figure lol. 260 poncams with around 2deg advance on the intake, 0 on exhaust.

Responsive for a 2.6l lol. It's very driveable in traffic too. Can't wait to finish tune on higher boost setting though.

what oil pump did you end up using sean?

[GTRsean]

Fresh n1 pump....

If I was going to track day it a lot I would of gone a jun with big sump etc. $$$$

[Tomek]

wow.. 300kw on 11psi ...

I was always led to believe that the 2530's wouldn't start waking up until 16+ psi.. Never the less, got to be happy with that!

[GTRsean]

Ha ha, I ain't complaining lol. It drives like a bigger engine at the moment. One of my friends saw the graph and said it was an NA lol. In first gear I'd accelerate in a straight line and all through first gear you could hear tyres scrabbling for grip! I wonder what to expect when I run it in and go from there. WSID will be on the cards with some mickey t's to test it out.

[GTRsean]

From when I got it tuned a while back, they didn't finish it due to the metal cat converter shitting itself, and partially blocking the exhaust. Has a couple of othe lines from other cars lol.

Done over 17,000k now and running well. Blew my rebuilt gbox a few months back, so put in another stocker, number 4 now I think.

Only things I'd like to fix up is:

Top ring gap, currently 21thou want 14 thou.

Sump vent, plumb one in to let oil in head drain back down, when on track days at high revs it half fills the catch can with oil.

Sump baffle, trap door and bigger sump....

Other than that it's good. Revs to 9k but I don't have to as peak power is around 7400.

Gets oil and filter change every 3000k. Track days, it gets dumped asap.

Great stuff Sean!!

The line on the graph looks smooth as. A credit to the tuner and engine builder

We are making the exact same power so would be good to see you on the freeway sometime.

[blk180]

Its slow on the freeway lol. Nar nice to sean just got mine back this week you gone back to WSID to find that 10 yet??

[GTRsean]

Hmmm thought there was something I still had to do lol!

WSID soon!

Need to buy another helmet due to standards bullcrap.
