Crank was all good?

What camshaft have you got in there? I highly doubt you'll need a duel spring! If you keep it at say 20% throttle, will it rev out to 7000 rpm without it doing it's thing? If you give it more boost, does it do it's "thing" earlier?

How big of gains regarding what exactly? As Brett said, shoving higher lift bump sticks in there won't be doing any favours unless you get a decent spring in there.

As above, why is VCT gone?

What size RP system did you get?

Rated for a lousy 750 hp. Waste of time for a "drag car".

All EV14's?

Couldn't hurt. To the middle of the hump on the dipstick. Did it for years on a stock sump with track, drag, hillclimbs and circuit. Never an issue.

Ah, fair enough then.

What's the difference between a 2.6, 2.7 or 2.8? That's just crank length All of which can have an 86.5, 87, 87.5 or 88 mm piston if you want? Unless it comes with a matching set of pistons for the "pre machined block", this block adds no advantage if that's the case. Even then, what's a bore and hone?

Didn't you recently add another 500 cc in your car by the way of an RB25?

Be intersting to see what these are worth and what's actually done to them to warrant the #omgHKSGTR price tag.

That would require common sense.

As discussed this arvo, I think there is so much left in that setup. - 35 degree day for starters - the tune - boost limited to 21 ish psi. A turbo this size wouldn't be out of bed yet - fuel issues. Yet it was still very impressive. Cracking gates in 4th at 3700 rpm is silly for a turbo of this size. You'd expect talk like that with it on a 3.0 or something of the sort.

My above post is the setup. 450 rwkw at 1.6ish bar iirc.

3.0, BW EFR 8374, 0.92 IWG, E85.

What can you do to that setup to optimise it?The stock manifolds are fine, we both use them, I believe it ran pods as it was a 32. The exhaust wasn't small. It's pretty much a no expense spared car. It was simply take the -5's off and put the EFR on. Belts it every way possible. Low end grunt, too end power, comes on earlier and back on sooner between gears. If you could do a back to back between twin EFR's and the single to see the difference, I think that would be interesting but comparing it to what realistically is dinosaur twins (-9's,-5's,2530's,RS's, the trust things) the EFR would belt the shit out of them. This car that I went in yesterday was cracking gates at 4200 on a nugget 2.6 in second gear. -9's wouldn't do that yet the 8374 would supply Atleast another 100 kw of grunt. Between gear, forget it. It was like the gates shut at all. As soon as the clutch was let back out, it was making a anti social noise again.

Take matty from WA's experience. Twin -5's on a 3.0 and went to a 8374/0.92 internally gate single. The EFR was back to peak boost levels in a 1/3rd of the time the twins took (Motec logs), made more power everywhere also. However, it would be interesting to compare something like the 8374 EFR to say twin 6258 EFR's.

I did look into it. I rang a few places to get the spline hub replaced to suit and got a few mixed answers. I wasn't really comfortable in hacking it up so I just got the R3C with the adjustable fork and release bearing kit. That way it will just bolt right in without a fuss. I did make a thread on the pommy forum and a few guys run the R3C without issue. Good enough for tem, good enough for me. Also, the coppermix has been in the car for 10 Years this year and hasn't had a rebuild/serviced. So at the minimum I'd have to replace the friction plates and have the spline hub done. It would almost be the same as buying a new clutch anyway.

Why not just do it now and not do it twice?

So really, in the current state of tune the turbo has nothing left unless you want to REALLY wring it's neck. 470 odd kw ain't nothing to sneeze at though.
