PSI40L Member 175 Member For: 22y 1m 22d Posted 23/02/03 02:59 PM Share Posted 23/02/03 02:59 PM god knows if the injectors can flow that much and the fuel pump will have to flow pretty good prob 350 gph and maintain fuel pressure at about 6- 7 psi ...there alot of things to be considered no jus ecu it can become very costl at the end of the day at least we know we have the basics there though for 17psi the comp will have to be brought down abit aswell that means milling down the pistons or u might aswell change them altogether cast iron rods at 450 kws urt5 talking of 500hp + I dont know about that how long is this motor gonna last maybe u gotto do a sonic test on the block those 250 cubers are pretty thin u know u dont want a piston too shoot out becareful bud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me personally I would want it to be all controled by the chip so it can be made removable for servicing, thus no damage to my warrentee, wishful thinking but it's possible....Dave.

Mals BA XR6T Member 381 Member For: 22y 2m 6d Location: Sydney Posted 24/02/03 04:36 AM Share Posted 24/02/03 04:36 AM Can I ask a serious question here.All this talk about increasing power, are we all seriously going to do this, or are we just dreaming. I'm hearing a lot of figures thrown around, but not many people doing what they are talking about. I'm not saying it's wrong to dream, but come on guys show me a 450kw XR6T and fark I'll be impressed, and of course then want to know how!But until then...

(the benefits of owning a workshop with a dyno huh!)He seems to have gone a little quiet lately... I suspect that he is working on cracking the ECU.I told him about these forums, but havent seen him join up yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
