supernova_6969 Posted March 6, 2016 Author Share Posted March 6, 2016 blackbell... so you are saying that the issue is not so much that the compressor can't flow enough, but hat the wastegate isn't strong enough to sustain that much boost... would'nt that be very simply resolved by having a boost controller valve? the stock wastegate actuator wouldn't ever see boost until it would get hit with the full whatever boost you choose, which would open it right away? anyone to weight in on this? with info or some personal experience?

supernova_6969 Posted March 6, 2016 Author Share Posted March 6, 2016 Mmmm. I know im highjacking my own thread here with this train of thought, but i'll entretain it so we can close the case... So from the thread timz mentionned, seems like i was suggesting that the turbo hit its stonewall (too much engine flow for the turbo size, essentially). But i'm not certain that's the only thing you were pointing out, although i don't understand how surge would happen at wot while on the dyno.. I think i'm missing the point i'm supposed to get. Still talking about how blackbell's post talks about a car boosting 18psi 'till 3500rpm, then loosing boost to 10-12 psi. I don't get how a weak spring would allow going to 18 in the first place (maybe overboost, but not by 6psi?)and how a boost controler couldn't just deal with the wastegate problem... Please illuminate me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xnke Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 hey Xnke. Do you mean that as the RPM rises, the boost diminishes cause the engine breathes in so much air that the turbine can't give enough to maintain high boost? Would that be possible between 3800 and 4500 only (not even 1000 rpm, for a very significant drop in boost)? thanks! Yes, exactly that.

supernova_6969 Posted March 6, 2016 Author Share Posted March 6, 2016 (edited) Ok. So we're all in agreement. Back to dybo results! Thanks for helping and clarifying things, btw. That said its interesting to see that the stock engine with its stock turbo can make good power on a very fat torque curve EVEN THOUGH it's indersized.... I'm curious what a similar sized moden turbo could do (more efficient, different blade design)..

98blackbell Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Plans to go with new Garrett turbo with external waste gate to hold boost bettter. T3/T4e 50 trim should get to 400 hp. Don't want that much but would be nice to have a driveable 300-325 hp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supernova_6969 Posted March 6, 2016 Author Share Posted March 6, 2016 (edited) Blackbell, make certain you post your results here. ESPECIALLY if all you do is change the turbo and retune it. Knowing everything else is the same, it would be a really awesome opportunity to see the difference made by the turbo alone, both in top trq/power but also to see the difference in curves, to see where the power comes on....

z-ya Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 (edited) Here is a race motor I built a few years ago. Unfortunately it had a crack somewhere in the block that when the coolant temperature exceeded around 180F, caused the radiator to overflow, eventually pumping all of the coolant out of the system. Here are the specs: - F54 block 1mm overbore - Bob Sharp prepped E31 head, shaved, 37cc chambers, too many mods to list - Custom Isky cam - Cosworth pistons, 12cc dome - Carrillo 133mm rods - 13.5:1 CR - Fully balanced - Mikuni 44mm phh taper bored to 50mm Dyno was a Superflow engine dyno. http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t177/psanders240/clubcar/th_VIDEO0004.mp4 Edited March 10, 2016 by z-ya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supernova_6969 Posted March 10, 2016 Author Share Posted March 10, 2016 Z-ya. That sounds like an engine that must have been fun to drive. Plenty of torque (at least as of 4000 rpm) and hp.... Thanks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supernova_6969 Posted May 12, 2016 Author Share Posted May 12, 2016 (edited) Hi.Loooking at the chart, that engine is a beast! Must feel like a rocket from 2500rpm onwards!Im not certain i understand your post completely, though..Are you talking about engines, or one engine with two different confoguration (n42 mild port vs n42 pro port, one or the ither turbo...).Sorry if im being dense....Thanks for posting thought. And i appreciate the amount of details... ****EDIT: oh crap. I was looking at it on my phone originally. It made VERY little sense. just looked at it on a computer and it makes all the sense in the world. thanks for the additional data though!!

510six Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Actually, I should have been clearer , same bottom end one with a small turbo and a large shot of nitrous using 110 oct. race gas( with the N20) and a mildly ported head and intake . On the nitrous it was a low 11 high 10 second car. The second with a well ported N42 head and intake with large exhaust valves and a T67 turbo with 17 pounds of boost and a better exhaust the boost came on VERY hard at about 3800 rpm. 91oct with methanol as 30% of the total fuel.. Using sequential injection via the AEM the car delivered 31mpg with a 6 speed transmission provided you stayed out of boost ...... My current project is a all stock parts N42 with a upgraded Toyota CT26 (57 trim) with a stock T5 transmission. The plan is to use the stock wiring harness with an AEM series 1 EMS using an adapter harness . I would like to have Flex Fuel capabilities with 91 oct or E85 and I am looking for a conservative 300rwh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andreas Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Datsun 240z -73 180 hp/235nm to the wheels. Have not done a proper tuning but it runs great. Should be some more power to be had with a good tune. L28 N42 block and late E88 head Bored +1mm (0.40 over) Itm flattop Pistons with Hastings rings. Head has bigger valves and steel seats like the N42 head and has been shaved to get the chambers to 44cc but no porting has been done. Msa stage 3 cam kit Harada shokai intake Triple Fajs 45s (weber copy's) Msa 6-1 header and 2 1/2" system Zx dizzy and Msd 6025 box Cr should be at 10 and runs pump fuel (95 or 98 oct here) R200 3:9 and zx 5 speed box trim.066159A4-EB21-464F-B1C5-7E2B41CAF212.MOV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbogrill Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Ok.... Here is my motor prior to May. The setup 1975 N42/N42 bone stock Megasquirt 3Pro for the brains LS1 coils for coil on plug Custom Intake from the group buy (Would be great for a turbo build but is just meh for NA as the runners ended up being too short, though it flowed well) 44LB RC Injectors (will be playing with E85 next year). 83 optical cam sensor for cam trigger so I could run full sequential injection and spark MSA 6-1 header with 2.5 inch exhaust With this Setup we were at 158hp... The Bad Just before Solo Nationals we put it back on the Dyno to try and figure out why it felt so down on power. only 112hp... we got it up to 141hp and called it good enough to race... #4 cylinder is down to 110psi where the rest of the cylinders are at 160~170. Put a little oil in the number 4 cylinder and compression was 210psi so it is the rings. I am trying to understand this. What gives you so much power for something that is so stock? Just the header and intake? Does the MS give you anything? What did you do to go from 112 to 140? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
