Guys,

 

I'm a little worried at the moment. We have a club dyno day booked up for the 28th of this month.

My Z is almost up to the 1st stage of running it in.

 

It's almost done 500 miles with an oil/flter change done at 150 miles. the car has now done 400+ miles since the rebuild limiting at 3.5 - 4k rpm and running max boost of 4k rpm.

 

I'll be doing an oil/filter change at the end of the week when it has done it's 500 miles where I'll be putting some decent oil in.

 

Since the last oil change, the car has not burnt any oil at all (which I think it quite rare on new builds - hopefully this is a good sign). It's not lost any water or any fulid for that matter.

 

The set up of the car has the potential to run at 21 - 24 psi (according to our technical wizz'd kids on here).

 

Do you think I should push it to this level on the dyno day or keep it safe and low ?.

 

I will be getting it mapped hopefully by DTA (holland) when I can get it organised, so their may be a road trip to Holland later this summer if anyone is up for it !.

you will be fine mate, if its a quality rebuild which im sure it is there will be no problems

the dyno will measure the afr, leave the boost controller off for the first run, you'll probaly still get 14-17psi, depending on what psi Martyn set the actuators to open at.

If the AFR is good then switch the controller on for the next runs ;)

 

I wouldn't play with the boost controller until you're sure your current chip is providing enough fuel.

The chip is a Doolz twin pop, 555cc injector chip, so hopefully the fueling is ok.

I'll check with Martyn to find out what PSI the actuators were set to open up on, is there a way of checking this now with them in place ?. If so how do I do this or is it a pain in the butt to do.

When Jimmer rebuilt his car with Wiseco Pistons, 555's etc., it's first real outing was to the dyno day at TSW in Bridgwater. His results are in the Dyno section on here and definitley no problem since. He has carried out a few more upgrades and will be present at the dyno day on the 28th, hopefully with his Conzult.
