Thanks guys,anyone run 300kw with -5s on a 1/4 mile with a time?

No one would buy -5s and run 300rwkw. Added lag for... What?

They are 360rwkw+ turbo, so you run them at 360rwkw... OR buy -7s if you want 300rwkw, or -9s if you want 330rwkw

Given that is what 7 pages of this thread is about, not to mention the other threads...

I understand the lag on the -5s but i was more wanting to know 1/4 miles times both -5 -9 running at 300kw.

The reason i ask is im running a stock bottem end and slowly building a motor to run 380plus kw and i dont want to buy -9 or -7 for 300kw an selling it of 1 year later for half the price,i do want to swap the -5 on to the new built motor chance its completed,there are numbers of people running 300kw even less on -5s,im on a very strict budget,and dont mine the lagg to save some $$

Not sure, maybe you missed this?

It'll be about the same. 300kw is 300kw.

Torque also plays a factor but for the most part it'll be close enough for the sake of the argument.

Same shit dude. It's not an issue of importance or one you will EVER get an answer to.

Car weight, driver, tyres etc - all far more important variables to worry about anyway.

Oh and if you are on a strict budget, hate to tell you but you'll end up blowing it. No-one meets a tight budget when doing a full build. It's just impossible as there are too many variables that again come into play.

will be going for the -5, pushing 300kw,No one is saying im putting chinese stuff on my other built motor,i was relating to the turbos that is where i can save money on,cos i do want to get 380kw out of the new built motor.

I don't get your point for, sounds like you want -5's just so you can say you have them, if you don't mind the lag why not aim for 400kw? If not go smaller. Your desicion is 300kw lagy or 300kw responsive....simple choice

He is slowly building his motor so running 300kw's with the -5's for now, and then when the motor is finished being built he will go for a higher figure :thumbsup:

    • They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required. 
    • I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.
    • I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something?
