I am looking at an rb26 cylinder head for the rb30 twin cam head conversion.

I noticed that a place can do CNC head porting on the head, here are the flow figures,

Number 1 = modded intake

Number 2 = stock intake

Number 3 = modded exhaust

Number 4 = stock exhaust

I haven't seen any other figures to compare it with, if someone has them could they please let me know so I can compare.

Wow, that does look amazing ! Wonder how much they charge !!.

I have a word doc with all their prices etc it is not that unreasonable.

Interesting they remove or "condition" both pads in the combustion chamber.

I think you'll find that 1 is stock intake, 2 stock exhaust, 3 modified intake 4 modified exhaust. An RB exhaust will never outflow the intake except at very low lifts. Later Mitsubishi Evo heads do for part of the range though.

They're good numbers, That looks like Audie flow software, who is the head from?

I'm confident it would be @28".

You see above #1 it says CCFM, that is calculated cfm which with Audie software is either at 10" or 28" water and if the head is flowing those numbers at 10", multiply them by 1.67 to get flow @ 28" and you have a head that flows 511cfm @ 28" intake @ .5" and 392cfm on the exhaust at the same lift.

That's in the range that a 500cu/in pro stock head flows @ .8" lift and makes around 1300hp naturally aspirated @ over 9500rpm. On an RB26 it would have a sweet spot around 20,000ish rpm..

They are very good exhaust numbers, what sized valves is the head the data is from using?

      Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though

      and it ends up being already priced in as though you're just on 91RON without any ethanol. Car will lose a bit of economy as the short and long term fuel trims bring down the AFR back to stoich or whatever it is for cruise/idle for the engine.

      Oh, you are right. But, in Australia E10 is based on 91RON fuel and ends up being 94RON. Hence it being the cheaper option for economy cars. The more performance oriented cars go for the 98RON fuel that has no ethanol mixed in. The only step up we have left then at some petrol stations is E85.

      There is a warning that "this thread is super old" but they ignore that anyway...

      With 10% Ethanol, we're talking 2-3% fuel consumption difference. The emissions reductions and octane boost in my opinion far outweigh this almost non existent loss.    My tanks sitting at 80%. Luckily that should go down fast as I'm on vacation again for the next two weeks.
