Smithy's Fuel Line Kit

Smithy's Mirror Finish Throttle Cover & Plenum Strip

Fuel Filter

Shrimpys Gold Grounding Kit, and extra cables i had spare.

 

Allso sprayed and lacquerd throttle cover.

Replaced more hose/vac lines

Fitted 3 rubber seal/gromits missing from coil pack connectors(cheers Pete ;) )

 

Fired up first turn,whaaay haaay,so much better,ran great,nice big kick and only 10psi(at moment ;) )just needs fine tuning (idle/tps/timing/maybe fuel correction).

 

The idle is so much better,(did notice earth to inj/plenum was not to clever,and the fuel filter on intake side had a big kink in it!)but with my set up i dont think it will get much better,have now come to that conclusion after reading up on Venom inj and talking to a few bods,just one of those things with them,certainly looking forward to seeing what it kicks out when boost controller set up correctly and fine tuning done. ;)

A few pics,(any excuse :D )

Thanks guys,may set the boost up better today,does rev to 7500 but only took it there once,seems to have 2 power bands,ie up to 5000rpm as you would then surge again to 7k+ quiet nice actually,one thing that has been suggested is that the Walbro pump is causing too much pressure at idle,but surley the fuel regulator(stock)would sort this,will see.

looking good tony, when you get the car setup properly and running more boost, the car will go over 450. the turbo's are only working on half its power at the moment.

Hi Tony,

 

Glad to see you have got yourself in another zed :)

 

The venom injectors have a reputation for not having an acurate cc, so a custom mapping session could be in order to make sure you are not running lean/rich!

 

The warlbro pump could give you too much fuel at idle, my advice is to replace it with a TT pump as this is the correct pump for the car and has two levels of operation as dictated by the FP controller. The warlbro offers no real advantage to the correct TT pump.

Hi Mark,get what you mean there,cheers.May get TT pump will see, as i have maybe a slight change of plan(Z related ;) ) as for lean or rich my AFR seems to be telling me correctly,comes on to rich when WOT,so hopefully correct. :)

 

Tony
