Hi Guys.
 
I'm going a custom stroker kit on my RB26 it's going to be about 9.5:1 comp ratio.  My tuner has tuned heaps of them on Pump and
no tuning issues.

He hasn't ever done any 10:1 2.8 stroker kits yet and we don't know of too many people or any at all that have gone that high.

I'm posting here to ask if anybody here personally has done so and how was tune-ability like on Pump and did you run into any issues.
I will be running a Flex fuel setup anyway.

Thanks.

If you're on ethanol then you wont have any real issues with being knock limited, so static compression of 10:1 wouldn't be your main concern. 

Your main concern should be what turbo you will be strapping to it and I wouldn't put any housing under 1.xx on a motor of that calibre.

Very much what Dose said too! With a higher comp donk you want to be running a big rear housing to keep manifold pressures down & aid in keeping EGT's down which will allow you to screw more timing in.  More so with the petrol than the Ethanol. But obviously its gunna make it better on E85 & P98 ?

    • Update Got turbo back from hypergear, installed everything etc. Bled coolant, wasn't smoking so I thought beauty she's sorted now. Went on a drive, car up to temp, let it idle for about 15 seconds, gave it some gas...nice puff of smoke again. Fml No doubt my turbo was pretty worn anyway but nonetheless frustrating that the problem persists.
    • Lol, yeh sure. But I'm not changing the head on this engine. Turbo is the current mod im looking at; as the VCT-2.6L  engine im building is getting the turbo setup i posted so the old built RB25DE needs a snail
    • New setup just needs a VCT enabled head and it will come on so much earlier. At least 500rpm of added response, if not more.
    • Wow, there's a user name I haven't seen for a while! Good to see you back @Sydneykid
    • Something to note, on an aftermarket BOV, it's quite possible to end up with the worst of both worlds, where on light throttle, there isn't enough force to open the BOV so you get small reversion and driveability issues, and with the venting to atmosphere, it dumps a lot of fuel on shifts. Realistically, dumping to atmosphere under power isn't a major driveability issues, compared to the issues of stalling from reversion. If you're getting up the throttle, then putting the clutch in, say on a shift up, but then don't release the clutch, yes, the engine can and will stall, but, just drive around it, and that's easy, let the clutch out in the next gear and the car rolling will keep it all running / going.who wants a hard hit of throttle and then to just let the motor idle anyway?   Main issue for driveability is blipping throttle and it wanting to stall, like when parking or trying to move in slow traffic.
