Dyno Results After Road Trip To Willall Racing

Hi guys

I road trip'd it up to Adelaide to visit Martin and his techs at Willall Racing

After tuning, my car made 422.8 awkw on E85, and 388.0 awkw on 98 Ron

Full list of performance mods on my car as follows;

Intake

- Top Secret Intake 2.75"

- Top Secret Turbo Inlet Pipes 2.5"

Exhaust

- GZY Catless 3" Downpipes with Ceramic Coating by HPC

- Cobb Catted Midpipe 3"-3.5"

- GZY Titanium 3.5" Exhaust with Garage Active Ti 130mm tips

Fueling

- Deatschwerks 950CC Injectors

- HKS Fuel Pumps

- Cobb Tune by Willall Racing

Martin's techs installed my injectors, fuel pumps and the turbo inlet pipes which ive been told caused alot of skinned knuckles - Martin it was well worth it for the extra turbo spool noise alone

I was nervous changing injectors would cause the car to idle or run differently, but thankfully it feels just like stock. Even the E85 shows absolutely no difference in daily driveability, apart from a split second longer to kick over on cold start

The power difference with E85 is alot more noticeable than i predicted. My only complaint is the fuel consumption, though i was expecting it - driving back i was down to just over 1/4 tank @ 280kms, and that's cruise control hwy kms. So i top'd it up with 98 Ron, switched the map over, and got back on the hwy. On my regular daily commute ill be lucky to get 280kms out of a full tank, so i won't be using E85 every fill up.

I'd like to shout a huge thanks to Martin for spending the time to walk me through the whole dyno tuning process, was a real buzz to see the car on the dyno and watch the power numbers climb

Also a big thanks to his techs for the quality work performed - there were no extra scratches or interior trim scars, my car was returned just as i dropped it off, which earns them a major kudos from me

I only have the dyno graphs in hardcopy, hopefully Martin will chime in with his copies

Willall Racing is a SAU:SA club sponser for a reason: they stand by their work & are passionate about being involved within the motorsport community.

Glad you are a happy chappy. You could scan or photograph the dyno graphs & post them up.

Long term goal for me (6years time perhaps) is to own an pre-loved R35. One day.

Got to start from scratch again, unfortunately. Disability pension, divorce, selling house, starting Medical Science radiation therapy next year at Uni and if successful after the 4yr course (included 48weeks of clinical placements over the 3rd & 4th years) I can hopefully get a decent job in the SA Health system as a diagnostic imaging tech, get back into home ownership (started 1st house purchase prior to my 19th birthday but everything went to the shitters once I multiple surgeries). If I can do this course then I definately want to reward myself with a blue R35 :)

Wow thats a very nice power band and good torque as well. Just a quick question regarding the tune, obviously theres two maps so you could switch between 98 or e85 but reading what you said you've topped up with e85 prior to emptying the 98. So would that mean you have an e85 sensor in conjunction with the tune?

yes atm I have 2 maps stored in my ecu, e85 and 98 ron, switchable in real time inside the car without needing to have the Cobb plugged in

there is no sensor like a bio fuel commodore. From what i understand Willall's tune has a safety margin in it to allow down to e70, so going from 98 to e85 you would want to get the tank down to under 1/4 - I'll go one step further and get it right down till the fuel light is on and/or the distance to empty reads zero as my local e85 caltex is only 3km away

on the flipside, since the 98tune is making less power, I don't believe you have to be so fussy with getting the fuel level right down when switching from e85 back to 98

If I don't end up using e85 that often, ill most likely buy a drum of it and fill up myself to guarantee better quality/consistency than what's in the caltex bowser

very very nice...

Martin has just sent me some 950cc injectors...Ive ordered the HKS fuel pumps today...cant wait to get E85 in the tank

im not sure tbh

there's too many back door sponsored members/vendors on nagtroc peddling certain brands/products to deduce any real feedback

Martin confirmed the HKS pumps were a super easy fit, so id just grab them off rhdjapan, 5 day delivery, and you're done

been doing the dd for a week now on 98 Ron with no driveability issues

the only change is a slight hunting on idle in neutral by about 100-200rpm, which im assuming is because of the larger injectors

i have uploaded the distance to empty fix and it seems about as accurate as it was with oem - that is reading 40km distance to empty than just going straight to -----

ill fill up with the local caltex e85 next week and see how that goes

for anyone interested, here is a quick datalog using my Cobb on a second gear pull from just off idle on E85

zero knock - a credit to Willall's tuning

that looks awesome,

congrats mate!

................... planning to go down that route sometime next year!

    • I have a radium fuel rail on my Greddy manifold and used the supplied radium fuel injector to manifold adapters (The round green things pictured). I did always wonder if you could just go ahead and use the second lower hole like you're doing... Wouldn't thicker o-rings solve your issue?    
    • From what I've seen and experienced first hand with those powder extinguishers, they're good to use to break a window and escape the car, and half the time then do f**k all to stop a fire. You just need much more than 1KG worth of powder. Not to mention, half the time it's an engine bay fire, and you can't easily, and do not want to completely open the bonnet, so you're left pretending to be an American Infantry... Spray and Pray baby!   And then 100% that shit is really destructive afterwards!   Realistically, those little ones at a race track might help you keep the fire from growing and give the fire marshal / truck a chance to actually get to you with their multiple large bottles.   For a road car, these days, prepare to deboard as quickly as humanly possible, and move to safety. Allow insurance to fix replace it (unless it's like a rare classic etc, then do nearly everything possible to save it!) Keep the little extinguisher with you to help protect other things around you from burning while you stand there singing "How can we sleep while our beds are burning?"   Secondly, powder extinguishers I freaking hate for indoor use, (this isn't really relevant to a car) as you will get a powder fog around you, and it can be disorientating.   When I did fire training when at BlueScope Steel, they have (had?) their own fire brigade on site. We did all the training, and at the end we were told, "If it's an indoor fire, and you need to use a powder extinguisher, we as the fire brigade would rather you just exit the building, you're more likely to get lost in the smoke and powder fog than do much help, so just GTFO" And pretty much that was what they said for most other fires too, grab extinguisher, if it's much more than paper in a bin fire, use extinguisher to get you and others out of the building to safety...   Part of me wishes when my Skyline caught alight many moons ago, I let insurance sort it out, instead of putting the fire out... part of me now says "But I've saved a classic before it was a classic!"
    • Hi all,  I have a older model of the Greddy Front facing intake on an RB25DET NEO Head. I've bought aeroflows fuel rail and injector kit (1000cc Bosche injectors) and I'm unsure if the fitment is correct. The injector o-rings fit in the intake hole but it's not snug. I can very easily rotate the injectors even when the fuel rail is mounted. The kit also came with multiple adaptors, they dont make it any more snug and using them raises the injectors up and i cant mount the fuel rail. I hope this makes sense I've asses a few photos.    Thanks so much guys. 
    • So, to run the 4g aerials to the booster, I had to get access to the rear bulkhead....bit of a mission. Hot tip, don't offer to help change the rear shocks for a mate with a v37.... Remove seat base, 2 clips that slide forward to release it the it lifts straight out Fold down rear seat (pull in from boot) The side bolster of the rear seat is not connected to the middle parts that fold. To remove unbolt at the bottom bolt then push it up off the top hook Then there is a plastic surround behind the seat back, 2 pop out clips, 2 bastard clips, some swearing at it is out Pop the rear seat latch surround off Remove door surround lower trim then side trim  Remove c pillar trim - 4 clips, pull inwards not forwards Remove metal brace - 5 bolts 1 nut Then you have got to the rear strut top...what a pain!
