Hi people,

I tried searching for the -5 Vs -10 thread however I could not find it, this topic may be a little different as the car is running on e85.

Key considerations

- Motor is a fully built Rb 26 (26 bottom end)

- 262 in/ex cams

- Car is built for street/drag

- The car made 420 rwkws on 20 psi, we tried raising the boost however there was no power gain (I believe turbo’s were out of puff)

- Fuel system is more than capable of 500+ kws

My questions are

1. How much laggier would -10s be compared to -5s (running e85 can put more timing into it)

2. Is there an in-between turbo or any other turbo suggestions that will get me up to 500rwks?? (please keep in mind that this is a street car and needs to be low mounts)

Attached is my current dyno graph

Thanks

Daz

There you go.

Quick answer. If it's a 2.6 don't bother. It will become a nugget.

Gav made 460 + on the baby -5's. It's just a matter of setup.

Question answered, close thread ;)

For a twin set up chasing that power I wouldn't use -10s, it will just be a laggy peice of crap.. Especially on 2.6.

You probs won't make 500 on -5s but It's probs your best option if you wanna make big power on twin low mounts..

Unless you wanna run a pair of the new GTX turbos.. You should do that :)

Dan, what's involved in being the test dummy?

Someone is already interested in trying them but I could ask for a second pair maybe. Still waiting for info back to confirm the comp cover is going to fit against the standard manifold

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
