Hey guys

I'm soon to get installed the following mods

gtss turbos,

tomei dumps,

Hks front pipe,

kakimoto 3.5" exhaust and

either 3.5" straight pipe or 100cell cat

I have a viper ecu, elec boost controller and handling mods

I'm hoping fir 320-330 awkw on this, fir fuel set up I'm getting sard 700cc and planning on a Walbro 255l pump

Is this all I'll need fuel wise to support my power goal or do I need to get a fuel pressure regulator and fuel rail too??

Any other thoughts on what I'll need to hit my goal?

For a few bucks more you may as well get the Walbro 465L pump which is ethanol friendly in case you want more than 500hp and decide to get E85 some time. Directly wire it and you won't need to revisit your fuel pump for a long time.

I was contemplating a 460 unit, I just thought it would be excessive. I'm thinking about e85 next year but thought the 460 would sound like a lawn mower starting up.

For $185 they are hard to beat, and the new turbine design is nearly silent. ;)

Bro. Pretty sure they are doing a he'll of a job while still pumping power through the motor that is just as old but probably will hold 300kw longer than the life expectancy of a ford

My XR6 Turbo had 325rwkw and 400,000 kms on the clock...

Well having just lodged my tax return im getting a lazy few thousand back... soooooo im thinking about getting poncams while i get everything else done.. given ive got the turbos fuel and exhaust im thinking it should be worth it..

now i've heard mixed thoughts about whether to go R, A or B, im thinking i might aswell go B cause the GT SS will be responsive as hell, i dont mind an angry lumpy idle and also if im going E85 down the track will help the top end figure?

thoughts?1

If you're gonna go cams. Stock, type R or mines shore pro 2. Tomei type b's, too much duration for lift given.

Pm XKALABA. He has done a back to back between the 260 and 250 poncam. Sometimes, bigger isn't better.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
