So today was interesting. Started off my deciding to tow the Skyline down to EFI Performance instead of drive it down. First hurdle was the car's exhaust was too low to load it up, even with a few blocks of wood under the ramps. After a while we decided we were going to jak the trailer up whilst attached to the car at the towing end to help decrease the angle from ramps to trailer bed. It worked a treat. So i was all hooked up, ready for the 2hr drive to get the car looked at.
Arrived at EFI at around 10:30 and one of the workers were good enough to help me get the car off the trailer. This time thought we snagged the ramps off the Dyno and it made it about a million times easier and it came off the trailer no problems with heaps of clearance.
Sean got it on the dyno and had a play around checking up on a few things and making sure everything was in order. It turned out the timing was 5* out. I expected it to be out a little with the half moon indicator saga earlier. After a few runs Sean came out of the dyno room with power run print out.
429rwhp!!! I was instantly like WTF!
Turns out that my Walbro in tank E85 pump isnt working properly and is giving up the ghost a lot earlier than it should. Sean also said that the intercooler size is also a concern and probably need to get a bigger one to help the motor out. Last of all the injectors, at 1000cc even with increased fuel pressure they will be maxed out around 600rwhp mark.
After a few moments in discussion with the guys there and the best way to move forward to get it ready for Powerplay on May 10 was to address the fuel system at least. It was decided to leave the car there for a few days and get an external fuel setup.
Going with a surge tank and twin 044's then reusing the Walbro as a lift pump. Then we will be able to see what the motor can really make.
