3tc conversion to efi + turbo + rebuild

[pope]

Pope: where have you mounted the wideband sensor? if it's too close to the turbo, it'll get too hot and shutdown randomly.

It is on the dump but was only being used while the engine idle'd.

Checked the sensor in free air yesterday and it's not changing at all with butane via the techedge 2j1. Not sure which is stuffed, but i'd hazard a guess it's the techedge.

if you want to confirm it's not the sensor you could come and plug it into my sensor and fire up the car. I think i'm using the same type of sensor (7200).

I might take you up on that offer. You about tommorrow?

Mine is definately a 7200.

yeah, no problem.

just SMS me and we'll make a time. I'll probably be home or near home all day. (i'll send my mobile in PM in case you don't have it)

Hurricane just had a look at your build thread, if your using a 290 degree cam, with an ABDC of 40 @.050 then your motor is actually only seeing 8.4:1 so 20psi with an intercooler and premium unleaded fuel should be doable

sweet, more boost it is lol

even with the stock cam and 91 fuel it was ok

dan.

Updates:




Reason for the delay was buying a house and having to build a garage. Damn councils.

Car goes in for a Dyno tune on Friday. Ridiculously excited.

Everything went awesome!!!!

Only dramas were a blown fuse and we had to change the spark plugs for a different type.

Didn't want to push any harder on it, given it is a fresh engine. Will run it like this for a while and see how it goes.

Some respectable numbers there for a rather mild tune!

Run her in and then lean on it!!!

Cheers,
