when you have seen both motors apart, yes.

forced induction is not really that much differance in cost once you include a new intake manifold for the de,but having said that, there is a crapload more bits "off the shelf" for the de.

bearing diameters are all alot bigger.

heads flow just as well as ported de heads out of the box. and the crank is much better,less harmonics and the block is alot stronger. with the nismo oil pump im using they are reliable to 8500. so nismo says.

one thing that needs to made avialable is 3d printed rocker covers with a re-located oil filler cap, and replaceable spark plug tube seals. same for the de really.

im also suprised that the full on drag guys still use the de as a base. (billet engine block) when the design of the hr block is way better for main bearing support. and if made billet they would be nothing stronger.

making some headway with the intake manifolds.

not much room to work with, between being to tall and wide and keeping the overall volume as tight as posible has been a challenge.

this version was way to big in volume. not planning on making 3000hp..post-19586-0-73439500-1451449157_thumb.jpg

this version was all i could come up with with the available space.

finished the intake manifolds apart from the balance pipe. and supports also the water to air pipes (i haven't worked out where to put it yet.)

each maniflod with the intercooler is about 4L. about 1 liter larger than i hoped but what can you do...

the charge pipe from the turbos will be a short 2" 90 and a 2" to 3" 90 degree reducer.

the water pump for the heat exchanger is a jabsco cyclone 32gal/min.with 3/4" hose. il be using 1" hose. i chose that over a Johnson cm90 because it flows more at the same head and is more compact and cheaper :)

How come you chose to run them straight off of your plenum instead of run the plenum size you wanted and have the heat exchanger seperate?

    • Some troubleshooting, connect up a timing light/gun with a proper ignition lead on coil 1. Hold the revs at 4~4500rpm and see if your timing is all over the shop, scattering off its tits. If so, there's a high chance your CAS is fked. But I read you have a Link ECU ready to go in, why not just skip all this and put that in - will make troubleshooting so much easier.  
    • Misfires when the car is fully warm are generally attributed to the coils (and/or the igniter, on cars with a separate igniter). They can stop working properly when they get hot for a number of reasons. Either electric/electronic, or from thermal expansion opening up gaps and allowing HV leakage. Seeing as you have replaced the coils, that could/should rule them out. But I wouldn't always assume so. Were the coils genuine? Or is there a chance you have bought some counterfeit Chinesium shit? Then we're back onto loom connections. They can fail when warm/hot for the same reasons. Inspections, cleaning of contact surfaces, ensuring that terminals are fully inserted, etc etc, are all justified. The same (heat effects) holds true for the other electrics and their connectors. AFM & CAS, primarily. If you try that Chinesium AFM, drive it around on low load until it is properly hot, but do'nt give it more load than you have to, except when you need to see if it will still miss. I'm dead serious about the untrustworthiness of the calibration of those copy AFMs. Injectors are unlikely to get hot unless the fuel is coming back around hot. You could try squirting them with compressed air or freeze spray to cool them back down to see if they are maybe the cause.
    • Alright, all the plugs looks good. Noticed that it starts to get bad when the car is up to temp, that's when things starts to misfire hard. next to do is Injector cleaning and such. Got in touch with a shop to do work on the injectors next Monday also help on diagnosis.
    • House of Fatz dry dock needs a clean sadly one of the long time stables is leaving this weekend   see ya mr purple
    • Hence why I've only modified my car into a pure daily. Everything has to remain reliable & roadworthy, while providing value and grin factor. It also must not be handcrafted to the extent that the car will be immovable if something breaks because you cannot get or make a replacement to at least limp around with.
