using standard internals + EJ20?(STI & UK) If you have any first hand experience I would be interested to read BHP & Torque figures, together with the list of mods.

Andy, if I can ask you to flesh that out a bit:

Sti v3 , Magnex full decat, blitz boost controller, rest stock;

What turbo (even one of yours!): What size injectors: What ecu for about 350/375 bhp and about 310 lbf?

Will the above on the Sti engine stated give the result?
Does the same combination work on the other engines?

Hope this question does not steal the origin of the thread.....sorry if I have!

Andy, if I can ask you to flesh that out a bit:

95 WRX RA 440bhp
Gruppe-s headers, 550 inj, custom FMIC, Microtech ECU, 3" exh, TD05/06-20G. Sti pistons, Ported heads and reversed manifold.

00 UK (USA 2.5) 434bhp
Gruppe-s headers, 740 inj, APS? FMIC, Ecutec ECU, 3" exh, TD05/06-20G. Sti 2.5 short block, sti5 heads.

95 WRX 419bhp
Tube headers, 550 inj, ?? FMIC, Apexi PFC ECU, 3" exh, TD05/06-20G.

00 UK 415bhp
Gruppe-S or OBX headers, 550 inj, Hyperflow? FMIC, Link ECU, 3" exh TD05/06-20G

Sti 5 406bhp
HKS headers, 550 inj, HKS FMIC, Apexi PFC ECU, 2.5" exh, TD05/06-20G

These are the key components plus uprated fuel pump and reg and induction kit.
Fuel used varied from straight Optimax to 10/15% added methanol and/or NF octane booster.

Torque varied from 345 to 390 ish on the 2.5

There are a number of others over the 400bhp but these are the highest results I'm aware of using std internals.

Andy

Cheers Paul, I wasn't sure if that one had headers or not so I listed another which had made an identical figure !

What turbo (even one of yours!): What size injectors: What ecu for about 350/375 bhp and about 310 lbf?

Will the above on the Sti engine stated give the result?
Does the same combination work on the other engines?
Graham
550's are ideal at this level, I'd recommend an Apexi PFC (but as a supplier I'm biased on that, not to mention the turbo) your limitation will be your TMIC, for hillclimb it would be ideal if you had some CO2 chilling on it prior to the run, then waterspray throughout the run ?
Do you run a control fuel ? Any increase in octane you can get at this level with high intake temps will give excellent return !

Rolling roads at Star Performance, Well Lane and Power Engineering for the results listed. Similar results have been achieved at G force and Powerstation on other similar spec cars.

Thanks Andy!
The BHP stakes are rising rapidly in the hill climbing now, 350 bhp Nissans, 460bhp Evo 5's, got to keep up.
We can only use pump fuel with booster.

Take the point about the TMIC, I drown the thing with very cold water before the off to quench it as much as poss, then spray all the way to the top. Officials do NOT like this as water gets on the track!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! For real.

Info much appriciated.

The moral is that you can't really compare, on the day I got 440bhp at Star, Harvey got 440.5 only 15 mins later !!
