i just dont understand why people spend $500-800 on a good exhaust and dont even blink but then can't part with th money when it comes to something like coils or injectors???

So what if it does the power on stock injectors, why would you want to, ther are cheap in relevance to everything else you have modified to get to that power level??? Let me get this right,

turbo and associated piping- $2000

ECU and Install- $2500

Intercooler, exhaust, cams, cam gears and other assciated good- $2000

Expecting your engine to last at high power levels with piss poor 370cc injectors,

PRICELESS.

There are some things money can't buy, but injectors shouldnt be one of them...

built motor $7K

turbo + Bits $5K

cooler $2K

ecu $2k

Diff $1k

clutch $1.2K

Fuel System $1.3k

the one thing i dont need .... bigger injectors i dont need them.

some things in life you should not coment on, for others think before you type.

Fuel pressure is 30psi and rises to 50psi under full boost.

And how much psi boost do you need to run to make that power? The 511rwhp is BS as sst-steve said in the other thread right? So you have you still got it in your signature and as the title of this thread?

1.3K fuel system witout changing injectors? What was the 1.3K spend on then?

the advantage of running smaller injectors is that the spray pattern is better

On a sequential fire, I see your point but, what is the importance of spray pattern if your ECU is using batch fire...?

The fuel pools behind the intake valve till it opens.

Pooling may be the wrong word but, it still doesnt inject the fuel at the right time that corresponds with the opening of the intake valve. Why is majority of the industry adopting sequential fire if it didn't make a difference...?

So, again, what is the importance of spray pattern in batch fire...?

the advantage of running smaller injectors is that the spray pattern is better

That's simply not true, take a look at the 1,000 cc Bosch Motorsport injectors. The 370 cc RB25DET injectors are crap compared to them. Plus the spray patterns are selectable for close, mid and long inlet. I have absolutely no doubt you would get better everything using them, max power, average power, idle quality, emmisions and fuel economy would all benefit.

The reality is there is nothing that the standard injectors do better than many aftermarket injectors. As long as the ECU can control them of course.:D

As we have good economy and drivability and good emissions and reliability and no tuning problems even with 1000cc injectors and set the pace in WA Wheres the problem?

This is all getting weak and making you guys look like clowns. Wolf is not the worlds best ECU but it does a bloody good job and is well priced and garranted and very flexible and im happy to sell and support it.

ROFL...

We don't have a problem with Wolf, infact we'd like to know more about it.

The problem lies with you and your attitude that everyone is against you from the start. Example : Sydneykid didn't suggest Tristian should buy 1000cc injectors, he just corrected him and used 1000cc injectors as a reference.

Why start controversial threads, ignore the questions in it, than have a sook half way through it and ask it to be closed.

Why have the need to show yourself as ahead of every other tuner in the country...?

Who exactly is the clown...?

I am not from WA and neither are the big majority of the forum users.

So, I'm sorry your humour had gone straight passed me.

BUT, if that was the case, why didn't you put your thread in WA section...?

More importantly, why did you address it to all the people in eastern states...?

:)

The origional post is still a fact ,Tristan made 511rwhp on stock injectors on Speedworks dyno and if you were from WA you would know why thats funny.

I have avoided a direct face off up to now, but this one is TOOOOO much.

It was a HUB DYNO

The car did'nt have the rear wheels on it

They took them off to mount the dyno cells to the hubs

If it had no rear wheels on it, it can't make RWHP

R= Rear

W= Wheel

HP= Horsewpower

The post is WRONG, it should read RHHP

R= Rear

H= Hub

HP= Horsewpower

Other than that I have no problems:cheers:

PS, well I suspect that Tristan himself didn't make 511rhhp, it was actually Tristan's car.

my prices where rough sorry but my point still stands and i agree with SK and suggested it in my original thread, you have everything to benefit from bigger injectors so why is it so great to do big power on stockies that turn your engine into a timebomb??? Its like building a mansion then saying dont worry about using steel reinforcement ive seen people use timber on 2 bedroom houses that will do, back to the car If you have spent so much effort, time and money insuring reliabilty and performance everywhere else why skimp on the foundations, i dont dispute that you think the wolf is great, or the fact ot does the power i just cant fathom the mentality of doing it this way! Oh and my thought-out post was accepted everywhere common sense is, over 1000 locations Australia wide. (just keeping the mastercard thing going for you).

    • 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 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
