Cheers mate if am there i'll take you up on the offer.

 

Is there 1 definate weak link in the JDM engine when you go tuning up past 400 bhp?

Ie is it always the pistons that fail, or rods that break etc?

I've just fitted new acl's on standard rods, and omega .5mm oversize.
Not sure how long i'll keep the car, but if i do keep it a few years i'd defo consider an LM400 or 420 over the vf 37.

 

Depends what modell you are running type 20 type 25 version 1 or 2 There is alot to consider.

 

Is there somthing on there saturday?

 

yes Saturday 24th of July 7:30pm-10pm in Aid of he;p the Heroes

ITS @@@@@@@@@ AWESOME



back out in it now BYE

but before i go

i think for you Tech heads, Iain said, 400bhp easy about 1.65 bar boost, and max boost 1.75bar. It still at 1,55bar at 7,000rpm but I probably got it all mixed up because of the Drive home


This is just far too quick for the road and these TOYO T1R's 18"s are just not up to the job

Big Thanks to Iain and Mat

Tony

Ps give you a better update once the Tanks empty or just another tank of Play

 

i'm bringing some big Boots for next Tuesday so I can Try it out and you can show whaT it REALLY does a Glouster

 

i think i will come and have a look,as you say a good cause.

 

Your right there see you there

my spec is

2005 2.0litre JDM STI Type-20
LM400-S60 Turbo
Turbo Heatshield
3” Milltek exhaust with 100Cell Sports CAT
3-port boost control solenoid
K&N intake pipe with cold air feeds
Standard turbo intake
Standard topmount intercooler
Walbro fuel pump
800cc Bosch injectors
Super unleaded map using Mega Rom with per gear boost control

Some 4th gear figures for you:
1.65 bar pear boost @ ~3,500rpm with smooth 0.5 bar @~2,600rpm
Peak power of 400-410bhp (334 g/s) @ 6,600-7,000rpm @ 1.47bar

Although i noticed my old turb was probably 200-300rpm earlier but the hit then is massive compared to my old one.

I don't know If I'm liking the Induction kit, that may have to go in a few weeks, I might get Iain to try it with the OEM airbox re-fitted and take the performance hit

Tony

 

might see you on Saturday, 5:00pm sign on at AJEC??

Tony

I could hear that from my Place LOL

But it certainly ****** flies

Tony,
I would be surprised if you would see much difference in required airflow for that kind of bhp, reverting back to the OE airbox. The MKII Type25 (that still retained the OE airbox) could be fed enough air to make more bhp than that, so I can't see (based on air requirements) it being required tbh.

 

Tony sounds like you have a great set up....

Could you explain the Megarom in gear boost mapping - is this ecutek software ?

And who maps for Mr Litchfield theses days ? In house or outta town ?

Thanks

A

 

I think JGM is mapping litcho's cars he has agreat reputation on here.

 

Iain Litchfield maps himself........ not literally of course!

 

And the Megarom in gear mapping ?

 

Iain does this.

 

it is

Yes is ECUTEK I think it optimises the boost in each gear rather than "fixed" boost level to suit all gears
I don't think that's quite correct
Iain Maps his own Cars IIRC

Tony

 

Thank you

 

Going to give it it's first "Outing" tommorrow

Tony

 

Hi Tony,

What time are you performing tomoz.

Rich.

 

Whoops only just seen this

It was in the evening good to meet up with you

The car went well but my first session wans't til 9.00am

Tony

 

It was 9:00pm your first Run so didn't wait for the next one :rooleyes:

But it DID sound nice when pulling up the long straight but veiw wasn't to great from where we were

R

 

Tony

We watched your first run and the car looked well quick

We reckon you passed every car on the track. You even left Mr Litchfield behind

Rich.

 

Rich.

150mph on the Straight

Iain didn't drive his mechanic and Apprentice each drove a session

Tony

 

How's it compare now you've had the remap Tony?

 

Due to the earliest 7.30pm session my first session didn't get going till 9.00pm so only checked how the car performed on the button, at mid and high end power . so no opertunity to remap it.

I've got some time off in August, Iain may look at it then

Tony

 

i did the ASDA charity day at Brunters and the Turbo was awesome on the Track

There were a few £80-130K cars strugling to keep up so i passed them

Tony

 

Nice one Tony!

 

Good stuff Tony.

 

I did manage to get a couple of wheels off the deck in the Chicane which my paying passengers seemed to like
