built motor + cams + standalone = BEAST!! what are you using for fueling?

B_Real45

Hopefully, Brett..

For fueling I'm just using 840cc injectors now with a Walbro intank. This should last me for 400-430whp without meth. If I get to that goal, I'll then consider upping the fuel with a return kit and go for more.

What do you feel about your meth kit? Do you think it's a good investment? I know technically the benefits, but for the costs, what do you think?

brett561tc

without even getting into the "how much more power will i make with it" side of the argument, think of it like a saftey net. wether you are in to fast cars, fast women, or both, you should always rock protection. deffinetly worth it. btw im leaving for west palm in about 20 min. so if you are getting tuned this week then i wanna be there.

B_Real45

I'll be breaking in my motor - so the only tuning I'm doing is for around town driveability. But yeah - hit me up when you get down. How long you down here for?

So why did the head lift at only 16 psi?

OMS FTW!!!!

B_Real45

I'm assuming the intake cam was the culprit and since it's the VVTi cam, timing could have been higher than what was inputted into the FIC. I was tuning the FIC while also running an OBDII scanner but didn't see anything abnormal. But then again, one would also question the install of the intake cam and/or the head-gasket. As you know, in this hobby, anyone who touches your car will always deny they had any part in failures.. only successes.

B_Real45

Are you seriously bashing my thread?

weezyfbayba

hmmm i havent said anything wrong?

ElevationTC

YUP.. That cam has me scartching my head..

Ive never seen something like that.. It looks like u ate it! LMAO!

Are you sure it didint drop a sleeve? Golden eagle had to recall the first 3 blocks they sleeved, something about the design caused it to drop..

B_Real45

It's funny you ask that - because that's what Olympic had said.. he thought the sleeve dropped. But after talking with the actual machinist, the deck/sleeves were only off by .003".

nice car seen the car in person should be a sick car. Olympic is gonna build my motor also.

B_Real45

Look here Petey pablo! Aka: Petey crack Aka: Elian. You need to stand by your word already and adjust my pedal lol. I adjusted but not sure if it's good enough. Plus when the car is hot already the engagement is higher? Why's that. Either way we gotta link up. And rob let's tune already!!!who breaks in the motors now a days?
