  1. he has 350rwkw dude. stock is not an option...
  2. should be less than that. give him a call and find out. 8186 2163
  3. my mate in nz bought one of these after winning 500,000 on lotto. has a super charger AND a turbo. ive got photos of the speedo at 250kph. very fast
  4. why post that in the sa section? how the hell would we know? bruce at lonsdale in adelaide is good though......
  5. nah I got to get in on it as well... just got to get around to it.
  6. dose pipes ..... and you guys get up people with daytime running lights....
  7. sell it, get a turbo, spend 1200 bucks and have reliable 250rwkw+
  8. even f6 valve springs will be fine. about 200 from ford I think? I have them in my 364rwkw ba but are at the limit. you will need a walbro pump to replace the stock unit in the tank too, if you want reliability. also youll need to remember to keep the tank over 1/3 full. when the tank gets below that you will find that under heavy acceleration the motor will cut out as the fuel rushes to the back of the tank and the pump will only suck air. do not let this happen as the motor has a tendancy to blow when under load, and no fuel.... a surge tank would fix this problem, but will cost about 1000 bucks to get one in your car. good luck!
  9. worried about fuel economy? go buy a hyundai. oh, I forgot, you want power too? go buy a vt executive with a big spoiler kit. they fly mate..... noob.
  10. I dont reckon they are too bad.... that should give you some ammo for a while...
  11. yeah nah....... you wont get decent a brake kit for that much. are they the fpv rotors? try some after market ones..
  12. ask marylin manson.... or possibly george michael may be able to give you some tips...
  13. bruce just reckons im f'ed in the head. I think he was getting a kick out of it as I kept saying 'who cares, just wind it up'. then he jumped on the band wagon and kept asking 'do you want be to blow it up? cause I can if you want..."
  14. no kaboom, although everyone at the workshop thought it would go... they put trays under the dyno so they didnt have to clean the floor off so much.... we started off with 98ron. result was 343.5rwkw. remembering that the most I had was 351rwkw with 1/2 e85 and 98 ron. the boost rises from 17psi mid range up to 19psi at 6000rpm. then we added e85 to make a 50/50 mix. the result was 363.6rwkw. boost rises from 16psi mid range to 17psi all the way to 5500rpm where is peaks to 19psi. I cant upload charts at the moment due to having reached my upload quota for the forum, but will do so when this is sorted. a couple of thoughts on the .performance: bruce was NOT impressed with the plenum. its a jd custom, similar to process west as best as I can tell. it is HUGE, and although ive got very strong low end performance, bruce reckons the air speed would suck..... this seems to be the case, because when we removed the under bat cai, allowing the air to enter straight into the turbo, we lost 20rwkw! theory is that the pod filter gave some regularity to air speed. prol reduced stupid amounts of air cramming into plenum, kinda like 10 fat guys entering a door single file instead of all trying to cram through at once... fix to this will be to sell the jd plenum and get a nispro or similar. alot smaller in volume but more efficient. I was expecting more than 15rwkw above previous max power, but there were some other changes made since that run was done. I replaced the 'hi flowed' stock ba cat section going to twin 2 1/4 stock pipes to twin 2.5" cat back system, with twin 2.5" 100cpi bullet cats going to twin 2.5" pipes. this made the smallest section of the exhaust twin 2.5". the general consensus is that this change has probably hindered flow, so I am thinking of getting the new cats 'hi flowed', but am unsure whether I should. the other change is that I now have a histalled built btr. this robs power of course. I also have not done any turbo mods at all. flapper mod and port job would definately increase power. a/r .7 comp cover would improve flow too. valve springs are only oem typhoon ones. crow would no doubt improve things too, as the car was unsettled a bit after 6000rpm runs. all in all I am happy with the result. it's the highest power original motor ba that has ever been on that dyno, slightly beating bruces own ba he did back in the day. interestingly, after 15 or so dyno runs, bruce ran off for a torch, to check it actually is the original motor, as we started to get doubtful when it didnt pop. it is. where to next? prol will get a wrecked bf 2 and do a motor and zf transplant. then with the mods I have, should be staring down the barrel of 450....
