448kw @ 24.5psi on caltex eflex (E70)

Pump is at it's safe max limit

I rekon lines can flow more if I had more fuel flow

Are u going bigger/ extra pump?

How did you figure out the pump is at its limit, did you try more boost and didnt get enough fuel?

Got over 400kw 418.8 atw turbo runs out off puff . 26/30

That was bound to happen considering it is a small turbo (especially hot side) for such a serious engine, same result with that other fella posting in the RB30 section.

Yes i was hopeing to squeeze a bit more but will have to upgrade rear housing And see what it goes, after i find out everything is ok with head and bottom end once i get oil samples back.

Who is the other fella and what turbo is he running , so we can compare ?

You, haha!

I don't think people should be surprised when they build a stroker engine/head combo, put a small exhaust side (turbocharger) on there and then the power noses over early... there will be more power earlier (more 'response') which is the intent of these builds but you just wont get that peak number.

HAHA why do you think I asked, I can cop it , I have been dumped on by experts :)

But you seem to forget, I did not do anything, I knew nothing and took the advice of the builder as far as the exhaust goes , he said put a new custom 3.5: exhaust on the car , I said OK I did not know he had a 3" dump and the old 3" Cat. I will fix that. Fark at that time I did not know what a dump was until you posted this :)

The PT6262 CEA will go over 700HP , this is much more than I have now or expected and yes it was built for response ,and as a stroker a little different than most .

I will struggle on, ducking the ton of shit raining down on poor little old me and hopefully end up with what I am after :)

The more I read about people's horror stories and being shafted by workshops or being underwhelmed by the outcomes of a build, the more I want to start building motors for people. It's not rocket science. In fact its almost common sense when it comes to choosing the correct components for the purpose or aim of your project. There is a huge wealth of information on this forum and I just don't understand how people can still be getting things so wrong.

Hi Mitch, I cannot believe the crap that was dumped on me and things being over priced ?

It is not all that bad and nothing like getting married , well for the 4th time :)

It seems we are all after different results. Mine is to be able to enjoy my ride and have a shit load of GO! from the getgo!

I love the look and history of the R3s GTRs , with the money I have spent I could have bought a newer GTR , but I wanted an R3, ended up with the R34GTR and just loved the feel of the car :)

With my drivetrain mods you should drive this around some twisty stuff, just great..

So , all good :)

Very aggressive though might look for more numbers later for now after i sort a few things i will just enjoy the snap neck :)

twin bosch 044s, standard lines. was leaning out a bit so have just upgraded injectors, if its still running out of fuel i may have to upgrade fuel lines. tonight i will know

Any updates from today?

How are your twin 044s set up? Feeding from surge tank or standard tank?

Hi Michael

Been reading some of your posts and you seem to know what you are talking about and I would like to get your input if you do not mind.

I did not choose the dump or cat, but I am going to change it to a 4" dump and cat. But think I will wait and see if the 3.5" exhaust system I have works in with the changes when I am getting the flex tune done ( hate the idea of tossing $2500 without seeing if it can work). If it is too restrictive I will change it to 4" all the way and finish the tune,

I am sure from what I have read 4" all the way would be better, but noisier. Mufflers could sort this out. Have to look into Mufflers now, never stops :)

The other fella :cheers:

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
