yeh I wouldn't think it would make that much more even if boost remained constant through out the rev range...

I'm seriously considering E85... going to have to look into bigger injectors and fuel setup... but might just wait till I see some more digits in the savings account :laugh:

thanks

nope.. motor is unopened besides the Injectors

Mods are the generic mods..

PFC

Profec B

550cc injectors

Full 3" Exhaust...

custom dump

custom intake

apexi pod

BOV

z32 AFM

walbro pump

etc

Nice power....

But I thought z32 AFM cant read anything after 260rwkw? And how much psi were u running to get that sort of power?

as per the dyno sheet attached on the first page of this thread, roughly 18-19psi fading down to about 17psi near redline.

.... GCG rekon this new rear housing is 'original' Garrett and much more efficient...

I would say this is the key ingredient for the better output you have now and is typical power for both the original Garrett Gt3071 with the .82 rear end and the Hks Gt2835..... with the extra 10kw or so just being difference in dynos

I thought and so have read, that the stock head gasket needed replacing when boosting over 1 bar or so?

and where have you read that? I smash 1.3bar into my motor day in and out, and it's unopened.

    • Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
    • Let large companies that are making money off selling kits do the preliminary engineering for you. If they all do -10, then that is all you'll ever need. 
    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
