    Endgame setup- BW s257sxe

    Not sure, but it does seem to point that direction. There are other things to consider though. How are you mixing your ethanol? Are you testing it? Either way I know I wouldn't be happy with how lean the car was in higher boost/higher rpm levels. Just my thoughts for whatever they are worth...

    I suppose I will say hi

    So I am a hardcore evo/dsm guy. Had 4 different evos, 9 different turbos, many different builds, methanol, C16, blown engines, shattered transfer cases, 4 different engine management/standalone systems, yada yada yada. Been few years since I was in the game, however since my priorities in...

    Endgame setup- BW s257sxe

    How accurate is the boost air temp on the logs? because on some loads points it is showing less than IATs. That is 100% impossible on an A2A setup. It would be interesting to know the accuracy on these sensors. Any idea of what the ambient temps were during these runs? How is 9-12.4 afrs...

    Endgame setup- BW s257sxe

    First you need to understand where you are logging IATs. Your IATs are logged from your maf so you are not logging IATs post intercooler. I was running speed density. So I was logging post intercooler. I can tell you after hard single gear pulls I was logging 50+ degrees above ambient. Going...

    Endgame setup- BW s257sxe

    Ethanol based fuels suppress knock. So if you are seeing knock it's not good. Treadstone intercoolers are cheap inefficient cores. Perhaps part of your issue would be heat soak and cooling efficiency. I noticed on pump gas you had to continually dial back the boost. I had the same issues on...

    Genpu: max fmic intercooler thickness ?

    Quick spool is relative. But something like a max effort cst4 450whp is going to out spool the crap out of a pte 5558. But the 5558 has made 600 whp on some applications but I personally dont consider it a fast spooling turbo. As far as front mount and turbo lag is concerned it is...

    Genpu: max fmic intercooler thickness ?

    Well it does make for a very quick spooling and fun car to drive. So there is that. Which makes them great street cars as well. Lots of variables. For instance there is a big difference between an ets and garret cores and say something like an xs power, cx racing or treadstone. It also...

    Genpu: max fmic intercooler thickness ?

    Corky bell agreed with the generalization that going thicker is not nearly efficient as going taller, for cooling and for pressure drop. However this is all a generalization as airflow to a front mount as well as fitment requirements to have huge effects on the outcome. As far as the 4" core...

    Genpu: max fmic intercooler thickness ?

    Evo guys would disagree. Alot of them running huge 4" garret/ets cores making 400 whp on 93 pump gas tdo5h-16gs boosting 30+ psi daily. They swear by them.

    EPDM bushings vs polyurethane

    Have searched and seen positive reviews on both types of engine/trans mounts. However has anyone had or experienced both types? Whst are your thoughts? Opinions? Cp-e claims their EPDM has better resistance to heat but I haven't heard of anyone melting their dog bone poly mounts so perhaps a...
