Lifting base pressure 15oddpsi will see more flow for more topend

What C/R is it running

You talking about raising the fuel pressure? Its already at 58psi. Figure another 25psi when under full boost you are looking at 83psi rail pressure.

Not sure on cr

1000cc injectors is way to small for 500kw on e85.....

Or at least a Aussie 500kw that is.

This ^

I made 604hp with my -5s on my Tomei motor at 27psi (still 2.6) on E85 with 1,000cc injectors twin bosch pumps and a Walbro 460 lift pump (to surge tank) and they were almost maxed out

Most GTR-s that run -5s here in Oz make between 450-480kw max on corn syrup

I think dyno read out is a bit too optimistic IMO but we all know how to settle this don't we?

you will need a drag strip

and a go pro

and a pic of 400m..........wait..........I mean quarter mile timeslip

No, I mean 58psi base is already 15odd psi higher then the base we usually see, mine is at 50psi which is already high then normal

You don't know what the compression ratio is ?

What is the smallest id of your exhaust system?

3" I believe.... And its Rickys car, just so there is no confusion.

I did not build the motor so I do not know the specifics.

most modern fuel systems run 58 or so psi. That is where we normally run things. Had this car at 43.5psi in order to help with pump gas drivability but we had to turn it up. The ID1000's are rated at about 1150cc/min at 58psi.

    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
    • Mine is all -12, I’m running a dry sump in a billet block though
