rollex Member 683 Member For: 10y 5m Gender: Male Location: Australia Posted 10/02/15 01:08 AM Author Share Posted 10/02/15 01:08 AM (edited) Bruce is happy to help and said he would look at if I wanted however I'm still going to get KPM to do the tune.I'll post up the two dyno graphs later today. For reference bruces was 340rwkw and about 0.5-0.75 lower AFR, KPMs was 310rwkw and never went lower than 12.5 AFR and as high as 13 AFR at peak torque.edit: Motor is breathing slighly now, was oil in the intake after 3 months (new intercooler so it was all clean before 3 months). It also used maybe 500-1000ml of oil in 3,000kms, in fairness the motor does have 190,000 kms on it. Before the tune it didn't drink any oil.How much oil do these motors tend to use in their later life? Edited 10/02/15 01:13 AM by rollex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rollex Member 683 Member For: 10y 5m Gender: Male Location: Australia Posted 10/02/15 01:59 AM Author Share Posted 10/02/15 01:59 AM (edited) Stock everything with a process west stage 2 intercooler and a K&N panel filter. I know some cars tend to get too much oil in the head if they sustain high revs and need oil restrictors/extra drains etc, I'm assuming this isn't a problem with the barra and that any oil in the intake is from piston blow by?Using this kit:http://www.processwest.com.au/products/ford/ba-bf-products/stage-2-intercooler Edited 10/02/15 02:00 AM by rollex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whats you peak boost pressure? A decent check valve and catch can on the PCV line works wonders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you saying the oil in the intake may purely be because of limitations of the stock PCV system at these boost pressures? ^^^ this is why I love reading either from the owner or the tuner - "the run was terminated".Proves to me the a tuner cares about the car. That is pretty much happened, they said don't get it on boost until it can be retuned. Edited 10/02/15 02:20 AM by rollex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A can on both is best, otherwise a check valve to prevent boost pressure entering the crankcase and a can on the pcv is a must imho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also does the PCV leak with old age, worth replacing this as well? Edited 10/02/15 02:24 AM by rollex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No point changing the stock pcv valve if you fit another in line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
