the day has finally come,just got back from powerstation for my tek 3 tweek. the car got 310.5 bhp on the rollers which im happy with. the car is a my00 with the following mods

tek 3
vf35 turbo
ported and wrapped headers
greddy up pipe
sti8 intercooler
intercooler fan
large scoop
custom undertray and air splitter
walbro pump
parallel fuel rails
ported throttle body
inlet manifold insulators
hks pannel filter
airbox mod with extra cold air feed on the side
prf7b spark plugs
ic spray set up with 4 nozles
3 inch open neck downpipe (wrapped)
decat centre
newage prodrive back box.
oil catch can
theres a bit more lag but the car pulls loads harder now and the turbo sounds quality, its runing 1.25 bar boost and holds up to 6000rpm

 

nice results

Ive just had my 2.5 20g mapped by Paul@ Zen. I dont have any power/torque figures, best guess 340*340 at 1.2bar rising to 1.34bar, with a little more to come later!

Here is a piccy of hand commander peak values on 1.2bar 5th gear

was that on UK heads Andy? 51% injector duty?? what size have you got in there?

 

Yes uk heads and 740 injectors

 

gotcha, what are you hoping for when the "bit more to come" kicks in? Gotta get more out of the 20g surely!!!

 

Im not exactly sure, we did a 1.5bar 5th gear run and it went like a bullet. but Paul advised me to keep the boost down for a short while to preserve the gearbox, but as you can see there is plenty of room to up the settings. 2.5sti with forged pistons on uk 97 heads, car was a standard 97 uk turbo

Thanks go to Api for doing this

Rentonone, sorry Ive hijacked your thread, apologies

Andy

 

so 6 speed going in soon then

 

sounds very familiar mate, mine is a 2.5forged sti block on UK heads also

so rentonone, good results mate you must be chuffed

 

rentone..... excellent mate,a good result and around what i thought you might end up with,go and enjoy it now mate.....

 

lol. cheerz, thats ok.

 

Nice results mate.
What was the torque figure?

 

Does that mean you're on the standard uk gearbox?

 

thanks martin, yes im going to enjoy it now. when are you going to start yours?

 

james...... back is on the mend,so might be up for crawling around the car pretty soon..... brackets for the newage ic have arrived so thats all sorted,just a matter of bolting all the bits on and get it mapped......

 

torque was 371.8 Nm. im not sure how you work it out into lb/ft.

also, whats 1.25 bar in psi?

thanks

 

Not sure on the torque figure, but i wouldn't mind knowing how to work it out.
That's about 18 psi AFAIK

 

sound gud mate, i,ll be intrested to see what you get with your tdo5.

 

James: Told you that scoop was good!

Graham

 

371.8Nm=274.2lb/ft

1.25bar=18psi

 

Yes, for the moment

 

haha. quality graham, the scoop made all the difference. cheerz

 

That torque figure seems a bit low

 

do you think? what could be causing that?

 

Don't know, I just would've expected to see nearer 300 with your spec

 

true, u usually see like 310/300 ect dont you? i havnt really thort about the torque.

 

It is low. I was at Powerstation recently for a Tek3 MY00, nowhere near as modded and achieved 272bhp / 272lbft?

1.25bar also (as Rich likes to map to).

Ninja Sports Cat dp
Magnex cat back
JR Panel Filter
3 port boost solenoid

 

James i would be less worried as to what power the car produces on the rollers.as to what it feels like on the road driving in real world conditions

350 is a great bhp for the guys in the pub as you have already stated its a lot better to drive

 

Sounds like there are some good results coming from 2.5's. The additional torque makes such a differance especially pottering around town off boost.

Can't wait till I've finished running mine in and had the final remap It's an STi3, so it will be interesting to see the differance the heads and cams make over UK versions (all other thinks being equal which the never are ).

Spread the word, bigger is better, and too much is nearly enough
