Hi Nick,

This motor build will have both with minimum lag or no lag so response under full boost and response in boost. The boost we are looking at running is 64psi absolute on the turbo side and that should equate out about 34psi gauge before the throttle bodies, remember this is all calculated, we will be follwoing the laws of Joule thomson effects.

You must all have a read of the below link now you know why people run big boost rememebr when the F1 where turbo they used to run 5bar boost.

thanks, should be a real animal with that much boost + revs :worship: ... that link is a bit over my head but I'm trying

those 80's F1 engines are ridiculous, but plenty of lag there;)

I guess we shouldn't complain too much, the old Sierra Cosworths were much bigger p1gs than our GTRs

I guess the modification to your quench pads will help you run such a high static compression ratio with quite a substantial amount of boost.

What fuel will you be using, I think I missed this further back ?

The squish area has not ben touched however the clearance has been changed by closing the gap further then standard.

The car will be tuned on E85 caltex.

Below is a pic showing how the wastegate will merge into the dump pipe and act like a venturi to help remove gases from the turbine.

Also there will be an addition of a fitting fitted at the bottom of the manifold collector, that can be connected to compressed air on board and spray it in for boost at idle, a good ay to launch of the mark. I know this is all new to alot of people as its all new to me, will have to see how it all works.

I will make sure i get detailed pic of the merge i hope people can copy this method and use it to there benefit

How did you form it? I'm also impressed with the manifold merge collector. I like to see people trying new things (well old theory, but not common ground). Keep up the great work.

Here are some old pics on how the collector was made, it took 100hrs to make

Design started from this

A wooden template was made first to see if it would work

I'm pretty eager to see how the dump will terminate, because at the moment it has the makings of the best possible solution for exhausting the gases.

The interesting part will be the packaging, unless your planning on running a side pipe :P

Very very nice fabrication work.

Thank you the fab work is not easy.

Will be running a full exhaust this car will comply to RTA road rules and comply with emmisions also

Hi Bobby, can you update with photos to show how this will work?

    • 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? 
    • I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday.
