Shane, where was that ordered from?

i got 476 for the springs / retainers and 162 for the guides.

as for the springs, from supertech, the two different spring rates. 70 and 92. what is the best to go with?

i'm only going to use standard valves.

Performance Closeout (found them on ebay)

theres actually 3 different springs u can get. 2 dual springs and 1 single spring. in the duals, 1 kit uses the factory seat and the other uses a new supertech seat (supplied with the kit) the 1 that uses the supertech seat is $549

the guys doing the head (jhh engineering in brissy) said the dual spring kit with std seat would be fine for our application (~8800rpm, tomei 270deg 10.8 inlet & 280deg 10.8 exhaust)

what made you use super tech valve train? used this hardware before?

cheers

i've just ordered the full supertech catalogue (dual springs & ti retainers, guides & OS valves) from the states for a mates motor i'm building, should arrive in the next few days

prices i got were:

valves full set (1mm SS inlet, 1mm Inconel exhaust) - US$499/set

dual springs & ti retainers - US$459/set

manganese bronze guides - US$120/set

total including shipping in aussie $$'s was $1466.12

make sure the guy installing the oversize valves inserts a new valve seat as the std wont cope with the oversize valve

jhh engineering recommended i use supertech, as that is what they use and recommend for valvetrain gear. ferrea are also pretty good they say.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
