First of two cars finished in the last week, both major builds.

 

This is a WR1, 2.5 conversion, using Rick Wood CNC heads, Cosworth large valves and cams, GT35/42R twisted up pipe system with remote wastegate, Twin plate clutch, Perrin intercooler and fuel rails, with a swirl pot fuel system and Aeromotive pump and filter. Also Cosworth baffle plate with RC catch tank and oil return system, Cosworth large rotor oil pump, etc etc. Simtek on this one of course.
We've also fitted Apex suspension and K sport brakes.

 

This is the other one! 2.5 to start with of course, but now sports Cosworth billet short block with Rick Wood CNC heads, large Cosworth valves and cam kit. Also GT35/42R, Perrin fuel rails and Aeromotive pump. Twin plate clutch, RC catch tank and Cosworth baffle plate. Motec on this one.

 

APS front mount. RC air filter. Ceramic coated manifolds and system.

 

thats how big power build should look like, im sure they have both been dynoed so who is hiding the graphs.lol

 

Also recently, 2.1 stroker and Turbo Technics T38 on our test car.

 

All running in on base maps as we speak!

 

are these customer cars, cause the engine bays do look mint do you do that with all your customer cars?

 

The first two are customers cars. Personally, I prefer to apply my own standard to engine builds, if it doesn't look right, it isn't right. Cleaning the engine bay is pretty basic stuff I'd say, and if there is something in the budget for a bit of detailing, I'd always consider that money well spent.

 

Alan as you may or may not know I'm in the process of a 2.5 Closed deck block using a load of RCM parts. I'm now looking at turbo options. Could you give a rough idea of how the 35/42 would spool and what sort of power it would produce. I previously had a rotated GT30R (.082) but am now looking to move up a notch. Any info greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Very nice job Alan. Everything cleaned up, properly mounted and all cabling and pipes logically routed.

Presentation makes a huge difference to customers. A bay that has had that attention to detail given to it shows the right approach to the build in general.

 

very nice!

so nice infact i have sent you an email for a quote on some work!

 

Well, we couldn't wait any more! After much midnight running in, these are the results of initial mapping.

STi 9 2.5 - Gareths


2.1 Stroker - Martyns

 

you have my block in for honing at the mo i think, from d&p in indian queens, looking forward to being mobile soon!!!

coming to you for a simtek soon, should i get my engine fully run-in and then come to you?? will i need to do any running in once simtek'd????

 

We can do it either way! You can have a base map, then run it in and then come for full map, or we'll do the whole thing in one go when you've got some miles on. It all depends what your spec is, re injectors, that sort of thing. We'll figure it out when we know more about your car, and do the right thing, no extra charge!

 

all looks very impressive.fair play to alan and martyn!. cant wait to come back! rich brooks.

 

Alan is the 2.1 featured above to the spec that you offered in the deal in your other thread?

 

what kind of boost?and was there any additives used? both graphs have such great curves.

 

Yes, exactly to that spec. The turbo is a Turbo Technics T38, currently in plain bearing form, but we are going to try this one again with a roller core to see the difference.

 

Boost is 1.6 bar, 97 octane pump fuel only.

 

these are 2 stunning customer builds.

 

Awesome work Alan, Martyn & the rest of the Enginetuner chaps

Do you make your own rotated up/down pipes or use an off the shelf component?

 

We ended up modifying two sets of very well made items that didn't quite fit!
To be fair, they were aware of the problem, and are rectifying it for the future, we accepted the situation due to time scale issues. We can make virtually any custom stainless exhaust or intake pipe system in house, I'll post up an example this evening.

 

This is an example of the intercooler pipes we produce. These are for a Skyline, with a screamer pipe!

 

Alan can I request that you also show (if you have pics) the rather nice Sti wagon that was jointly created recently.

 

how about some murtaya builds!!
looking forward to coming down this month with neil to discuss my murtaya spec
martin

 

that wouldnt be yours now jase...
martin

 

Oh, I will as soon as I get some pictures!

 

Well, our 2.1 is just MADE for the Murtaya!

 

if you don't mind my asking how much did this cost?
