closer to 5000? the engine should rev to 8000 right? i could live with that current turbo comes on about 4300... hey your the emanage guru right? i have a emanage ultimate but my boss whos the tuner hates them but i dont understand everywhere i read says they are the shit! i read your thread very informative bytheway. He tunes pfc's and links and microtechs mainly, i actually had a link on order then saw this hope i made the right decision, i think he just too stubborn to try new things and now wont admit that they are far superior to stinks ahem i mean links they say they are easy to tune for an experienced tuner i think he needs to wake up, very frustrating :P

^^^ yeah its all in the mind :P they do the job well, mind you i do probably just as many other brands of ecu too. The oold links were shite but the G3 actually is very good.

what i found most suprising was how cheap plug in MOTEC are.....

OT: Adam i noticed you said you had HKS 264 cams with 9.1mm lift, are you positive they are 9.1 or 9.0??? Reason i ask is that i've got the same cams that im about to drop into my stock 20 and spec sheet stated 9.0mm direct drop in meaning not needing upgraded valve springs.

Cheers Ben

older version of the cams they only have the duration stamped on them i'm pretty certain they were 9.1 but i could be wrong and didnt measure them befor fitting them.

there coming out soon so will try and sus it out

Hey again just a small update, i got some greddy adjustable cam gears and a map sensor for the emanage, does anyone know wat those map sensors are good for? ie 2.5 bar?, also lookin at a N1 oil pump wat you guys reckon of the standard rb20s one?? dam this modifying is becoming like a snowball if i have this then i might aswell put that on, then that too and THAT looks shiiiiiiny! haha im sure alot of you can relate!

yea appreciate your input! i have had heaps of mixed reviews with this turbo and my setup, so ill put it on get it tuned and see wat it does then ill keep yous updated, if it does turn into a undriveable lump of metal then ill try different turbo setups, but remember one persons idea of lag can be anothers lag heaven or watever :thumbsup:

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
