OK guys n gals well this is just a bit of fun really

 

My car is going to Noz for mapping and dyno testing on Thursday :clap:

 

Anyone want to try and guess what BHP I will get?

 

Assuming these are the things that will mostly determine or limit the results:

 

I have GTX2860R turbos

600cc Injectors from PFI Canada

Yellow Jacket coil packs

HKS EVC Boost Controller

Some sort of decat stainless exhaust system (never knew what it actually is)

Standard SMICs, Induction, manifold

Stock engine

Manual transmission

 

All the usual deletes - EGR, Air Con etc

 

So just for a bit of fun then, what's the best guess for that lot? Closest gets..... some street cred.... and rep from me lol

Get rid of them bloody PCV valves with a full delete and vent the motor as nature intended...done this mod to 3 of my zeds and never looked back.

A bit of a nightmare all round. It didn't smoke any more at 18psi than at 10psi though and it wasn't a failure so to speak and it definitely isn't "blown up". There is crank case pressure building up, but it would need further tests as discussed to pinpoint the exact issue. The amount of smoke from the start was very worrying though. It's a massive shame, as the GTX2860 turbos need at least 22psi to be efficient, and the 10psi actuators are definitely not suited to the job. I've had some ideas and will discuss with you after the weekend.

 

:(

 

OK Noel. I know it is not actually 'blown up' it was a figure of speech as Ian and I did have this conversation jokingly at Coventry... as I have said here the car is running OK on the road for general use and is perfectly drivable and not notably smoking when driven.

 

I'm already commited to, and accept, the fact this engine is gonna have to be pulled and certain things are going to need checking out before we try again

 

Look forward to chatting with you

I blew the dipstick out once when a pcv valves failed, however, the lack of power does suggest rings

My old S13 used to blow the dipstick out every time up the strip running a TD06-20G. Never smoked, made 382bhp @ hubs (highest on a stock CA18DET in the world at the time as far as I'm aware) and just kept going & going.
