Less chat more boost!!

hahaha, yeah. I will do that after I upgrade headbolts.

Yeah it will make a difference, it's called more lag with longer duration cams :)

Is that actually always true? Wouldn't longer duration exhaust cam let out more exhaust flow to spool the turbo faster? Or would having more duration intake and more duration exhaust just equal out and have me where I currently sit as far as lag is concerned?

Yes, always true.

Your essentially shifting the motor's efficiency to the right.

Whoever recommended you longer duration cams for response should go read a few text books and educate themselves (saying that very nicely).

You want some more response, I suggest going to a twin scroll setup, ie divided housing, proper twin scroll manifold, twin gates.

No one recommended me longer duration for response. I bought the cams before going single turbo. So I have them to put in still. Looks like I'll be looking for a twin scroll setup in the future...or stroker kit lol

Put the cams in and boost it. Get that face stretch going.

I saw your dyno.

I'm on Tomei Poncam A's with the 260 duration intake and 252 duration exhaust on a stroker motor with divided exhaust housing on BW 8374 EFR IWG .92 housing and I am seeing full boost in 4th gear around 3600 rpms, but full boost in 3rd right at 4k. I'm spinning to 8k rpms and 17 psi is 464 whp and 371 ft-lbs toqrue.If you look at Tomei's website about their stroker kit, my horsepower numbers follow their dyno almost exactly with a 20% addition in power (converting to flywheel from wheel HP). If you notice, there appears to be about a 400 rpm shift to the left from going to a stroker with a bit more top end due to increased displacement.

I'd say your numbers are on target to be honest. We both need to apply more boost and/or move to E85 (which will definitely be my next step - give me a couple of months). I'm still trying for 500 whp on pump gas which should be possible up around 19-20 psi and I would bet it would hit 400 wtq there as well.

Also it should be noted that if I were to go for total streetable HP ON 93 PUMPGAS on a RB26 with stock cams, I would go smaller than 62mm turbo chargers - I would pick something in the high 50mm...like BW 7670 or in your case 5862. These will all have a better powerband and will make the car more usable on the street if less than 20 psi boost. The 7670 would be insanely fast and responsive. I was going to go there, but when the stroker decision was made, i scrapped it for 8374. Again, you'll be limited to 8k or less rpms and likely 20 psi or less, but you'll have better powerband for sure.

I have attached my graph, I'd like to compare the two if you have a printout of yours (or could put it in the attached excel spreadsheet).

    • Depending on the purpose of the car, and how much more fabbing you want to do, and what clearances you have, you could look to raise the motor, which will raise the front diff up. Likely would mean altering the chassis rails etc etc, hence the more fab work you'd need to do. However, this can create issues, not just in clearance with everything fitting under the bonnet, but you've also raised a LOT of weight up in the car, and this will DEFINITELY alter handling characteristics (But, so will how much weight you've already added to the front end). You'll also have to deal with the fact the gearbox to rear diff is now out of alignment too for the tail shaft, and alter the angle of the diff, or deal with a bit of potential vibration. Raising the motor an inch up, is effectively the same as making the whole car sit higher by not lowering it as far. So one inch higher motor, theoretically means you can drop the car an extra inch lower, and maintain the same angles in the CVs. Again, depends on the purpose of the car. If it's a just cruiser on the street car, maybe won't be an issue. If it's meant to be a time attack car, I can see you not wanting to raise the motor. This is just for you to ponder as an idea.
    • Have you not seen geospy.ai? It can now give GPS co ords to within a metre from a photo, even if it's a random photo you take inside. Supposedly at the moment only the government/law enforcement has access to that... Supposedly...
    • I've got the rear ones, they're certainly beefy. I need to take them to my driveshaft guru to check over, he's very fussy about the quality of components so I'll let you know if they are made of cheese by a blind man.   Are you in Australia? A mate just had a set of EN26 shafts made for his K20 Lotus by our fabricator which were quite cheap (compared to Driveshaft Shop) so if you can procure the CV's and draw what you need he'd make them for ~$800 for the pair.
    • Had I known the diff between R32 and R33 suspension I would have R33 suspension. That ship has sailed so I'm doing my best to replicate a drop spindle without spending $4k on a Billet one.
    • OEM suspension starts to bind as soon as the car gets away from stock height. I locked in the caster and camber before cutting off the kingpin. I then let the upright down in a natural (unbound) state before re-attaching it. Now it moves freely in bump and droop relative to the new ride height. My plan is to add GKTech arms before the car is finished so I can dial camber and caster further. It will be fine. This isn't rocket science. Caster looks good, camber is good, upper arm doesn't cause crazy gain and it is now closer to the stock angle and bump steer checks out. Send it.
