Joeyjoejoe's E85 Tuning Adventutres

[Wheezy]

HRMMM, now Trent tunes E85 its time for me to change my fuel, 300rwkw here I come! Gotta love wank factor!

PS. I still love your car, 2nd fav R33 behind a close friends, both are insane but my loyalty must stay with my mate or he will get all emoitional

You still have better rims, but dont tell him I said that

[Roy]

Cant wait to see your results. I wanted a 300rwkw std RB20 But looks like you will get there first. i have upgraded my fuel system so i should be able to make it, had a 10cm housing for the 20G, have the new Plazmaman inlet and 6boost manifold...so i had enough new/better stuff to hve made it.

Still mega keen to be running this stuff when i get back

[Wheezy]

Roy is the TD06 10cm still for sale?

You have PM

so far the car is running on corona struts with commo springs, xt130 lca's, lock spacers, 15x8 -9 ajps challengers, and flared guards

the car has a flat front conversion, and is getting a spraycan satin black job soon

motor is currnetly a 4ac in an AE71 crossmember, AE71 radiator & thermofan, and webber carby

gearbox is a t50 and the diff is an AE71 item welded shut.

new motor going in is a 4agte (ze block with custom turbo and cooler setup) with toda cams/gears should see around 150-160rwkw and car is getting stripped and caged

car will also be getting swaybars and possibly coiliver conversion....

ecu will be mocrotech... probably

will get pics up at some stage soon

fark yeah that will be barrels of fun with the turbo motor

if I get one in the future I will leave it NA... but only because I love the sound of an off its head 4age... the GTR is for going fast in a straight line anyway

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

sif leave n/a...

i thought about going n/a with quaddies, but i want a little more bang, n/a with quaddies, cams, camgears and ecu might see you to 120rwkw

@150rwkw & 850kgs its about the same as a full weight 33gtst with 240rwkw btw

[Pattygtst]

NYTSKY,

Is it your boost controller perhaps....the boost curve seems lazy when it comes onto boost as well....only making peak boost at 4900 rpm and immediately starts declining.

Yeah agreed. You have a 3litre right? Should be getting full boost after 3000rpm. I made full boost 19psi on my 3076r IW on stock 2.5L at 3900rpm. When you get that sorted out it will feel so much better. Does it feel laggy?

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

quick update...

car is going back to status for a summer retune and cleanup on the 2nd... will post results and a graph or 2 when i'm done

[SS8_Gohan]

summer tune??

can you look up your exhaust and see if there's any rust?? inside of my exhaust has a hue of orange to it

Thats the reflection of the summer sun

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

last tune was on a cold night and was a pretty quick one as we ran out of time

[Guilt-Toy]

nice results mate! Congrats!!!!!

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

just gt back from status.... will post results and graphs in a min

[PM-R33]

I'll check the graph in the morning man, good results for being summer now

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

ok so we finally got round to what you were all waiting for...

98ron and e85 back to back, same dyno, same tuner, same day, same boost

the car made 280rwkw on BP ultimate 98 and 320 on united e85

very happy with the results as it's a very safe tune.... pulled 2 deg timing out of the top end and only lost 5kw, fixed all the cruise and idle issues, cleaned up a boost spike and got the car running absolutely perfectly.

my thanx again go out to trent & cat @ status tuning, who always go well out of their way to make sure my car is perfect!

all graphs are in sae correction mode so the results are the same as dyno dynamics in shoot 6

[PM-R33]

Damn thats impresssive, look at the torque difference!! Very nice man, im jealous

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

lol i havent drivin it on sugarcubes yet... we put it back on pulp.... gonna wait till i have the nitto's on

[JonnoHR31]

sorry if its been covered but why the ~200rpm difference in reaching full boost? actually different with e85 or just different ramp rate on the dyno?

interesting results, wish one of the servos would hurry up and start selling some over here, keen to experiment

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

added the timing a little more progressively afaik

[Guilt-Toy]

Stock internals with 320rwkw, you would think this push's the limit a bit, but the more I think about it it...

You can make big power with engines but there is no head room if anything were to go wrong and the engine not blasting itself to pieces.. So a good e85 tune will never see detonation.

I would be interested in seeing this engine being pushed to 400rwkw with e85... as long as the rod bolts hold up it should be good
