Dont take this the wrong way Steve, but the forum is here for the exchange of information...if you want to come on here, wave power figures around then say sorry trade secret...then thats using the forum to drum up business.

Which is cool you are trying to earn a living...but again most of us are on here trying to mod our cars reliably and cheaply and to do so need credible info...I cant see how a certain brand of ecu or a certain tuner can defy the law of physics.

CFM to make that power, the A/F you are running (10.5s is pretty rich and even more remarkable at those power levels that they can still achieve such a rich mixture) mean you need a certain sized injector. Somewhere in there you seem to be soing something differently, cudos to you, but if you iant willing to share then perhaps best to let majic1 be the one telling the story.:D

Forget dyno figures, forget 1/4 mile times, i want to see sub 1:05sec times at Barbagallo Raceway:)

I cant claim to sub 65s,but i have run 68s on street tires(205/15bridgestone G3),run hillclimbs,drags,motorkhanas on a tune by SST 2 years ago.No its not a RB25.

Wander around the pits at Barbagallo raceway and note the number of yellow SST stickers on cars in most classes.

1. put magic1's car on a dyno dynamics dyno in shoot out mode, post dyno graph

2. Congrats on squeezing 511*hp from the stock injectors

3. I dont understand why everyone is having a whinge!!! Does it really matter to you that much that Steve is claiming this power on stock injectors? Do you really want to push stock injectors or would you rather put larger cc injectors in??

I know that i have forked out $$$ for my engine, i aint gonna be a cheapskate and not go for larger injectors for insurance

4. Steve and SydneyKid need to get it on and be done with... toooooo many sly remarks and personal attacks going on in ALL these threads when these 2 disagree with each other.

*non DD dyno

Damn western australians. Always surrounding themselves in conspiracies and secretcy.

The results are , how would i put it astonishing, to the point of unbelievable, but hey if there are ppls to confirm the results and as long as the customer is happy, then a job welldone. But it is also good etiques to explain the proccess of accomplishments.

dyno chart will be up tommorrw done in shoot out mode 4, stamped and all. Want a vid i got one of those to.

the car is now at the limit of the turbo, and maybe the rods.

fuel lines are stardard

is anyone coming over to perth or have any mates in perth that want to go for a ride?

seat of the pantsometer!

Also will be attending the motorplex on wednesday week, was to be this week but im not racing on my birthday.

Regards

Tristan

nd4spd ran 142mph in street trim that aint low.Rob77 had stock pistons.

As for Sean(lagwagon) he cant afford a nice car so he bags everyone that can .

SST is a workshop and as such will not tell any of our secrets but wiil make the cars avalable to any East coast shop thats in town.Magic1 is driving his car around for work as was on sat.

If others cant match this power then try harder.

Magic1 wanted as close to 500 as pos for PAS so we should be pleased he got what he wanted.

From what i read lagwagon is commenting on the cars you tune and use in your arguments. So you call him cheap?

-rob77 had stock pistons thats why it blew. nar sorry there are may people running stock pistons that make big hp but they dont push the the stock injectors.

i belive magic 1s 414rwhp i saw it run on the dyno dynamics, but i can also see how it can be done. Cams would help a heap because there increasing power with out heat so the sock injectors dont need to have such a good spray pattern to get a cool clean combustion.( Which happens with large fuel reg presure) forged pisstons again are up for a bit more punishment then the stock. An efficent turbo at a bar. and a tune that would sacrifice power down low for more up top will give you a dyno queen car that pulls some nice graphs but embarrassing track time for the power.

i dont mean to take anthing away from the car its nice just set up differnt to the way others like it each to their own, id love to own it. As you said steve he was setting it up for the dyno comp, he wanted 500rwhp and you got it.

just alittle curious abit off topic; seems abit of "Attacking" going on between tuners and tuning houses in perth lately? is it just me.

Also what is everyones problem? I have run my car on 2 dynos in perth both DD and i made within 10rwhp on each other (one was @ sst and the other @ hyperdrive). So why when a wa car makes a nice power on stock injectors its it a lie or fake.

seams alot of people are quick to have a goo but each to his own i guess

edit: im pretty sure pauly engine went bang bang cuz he try to run something around 30 or 40psi hehehehe

Its because theoretically injectors can only flow so many cc's of fuel.

Unless there's some other little tricks that not many ppls have tried such as possible huge arsed fuel lines?

and or making sure the fuel pump receives a consistant full voltage of say 14volts.

Every little bit helps I would imagine.

As you increase fuel pressure you decrease flow because the fuel pump has to work harder to push against the force. In turn it slows down. This is the drop in volume.

So theoretically if you decrease the restriction or increase the fuel line size this will give you a higher flow rate at the same restriction or psi pressure.

A 33 percent increase in the fuel pipe diameter will double the volume flow.

I'm not sure how much of a difference it really makes once it hits the injectors though.

    • The average previous owner for these cars were basically S-chassis owners in the US. Teenagers or teenager-adjacent. I often tell people that neglect is easier to fix than something that was actively "repaired" by previous owners.
    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny
