Nems NA to TT conversion, with an added suprise ;)

Yep i have a set at home and its what i broke the half shafts on last time. They are shit in the wet though and don't last too long.

 

After driving the car these few days i can definately say the breather mods are worth it, the car has an amazing amount of power on demand even at extremely low rpm.

 

you think?

Really improves the midrange power curve


.

 

Ha, yep. Only after trying it for myself do i believe it. Its already pulled away from a 280rwkw R33 on the highway with little trouble. Can't wait to put the ET streets back on and try a 100 shot

 

When are we hitting the strip?

 

why didnt you go the full 2.5 " inlet system ? instead of the half half ?

 

I have 2.5" Turbo Intakes, factory accordion pipes are 2.5" from factory so i don't think it would make a big difference.

 

When i have time, work is always pretty full on. Still need to install and tune the nitrous before i have another crack at it.

 

did you run with stock inlets and 2.5" intercooler piping at all ?
looking at doing my inlets soon all the rest of my piping is 2.5" allready bar the inlet side

 

Nope, i installed 2.5" inlets when i did the engine conversion.


One interesting thing to note is that after the dumps and cooler piping upgrade it seems to have free'd up a lot of boost. Previously my Eboost2 needed 100% duty cycle to hit 20-21PSI, now it only needs 80% to get to 22PSI... 100% goes right up to ~26PSI now.

 

Car obviously still needs paint but i'm loving the look of the veilside drag wing with the twinZ diffuser






Last step is to paint it, install my walbro 485 fuel pump, throw the nitrous kit on and see what she can do.

 

Gonna paint it red again? Good color for a zed I reckon :zlove:

 

Car is dope. Will be perfect with paint and nos.

 

Big fan of the look with the drag wing and diffuser.

 

Well i can say that my highest boost setting doesn't like a 1.1mm plug gap Knew it wouldn't but i've been too lazy to gap them down so i've limited the boost to 18PSI for now. While it is leaving power on the table its still plenty quick. I've also been playing with the features on my eboost2, mainly the gate pressure setting. By getting the eboost to hold the gate shut for longer the engines response is really good now even though it was insane before. 17PSI at 3200-ish in 3rd is pretty good! I'll keep playing with the EBC settings to see if i can get that any lower

 

What power is ot making the way your tslking sounds like its making 800 hp atw. Either that or your scared of power. ?

 

Maybe 400hp, not scared of it at all just need to adjust the gate pressure to bring the boost on quicker.

 

Initial numbers are in:

225rwkw at 8psi

266rwkw at 13psi.


Still being tuned so watch this space for results!

 

Final numbers are 300.9rwkw at 18psi. Eboost2 is having issues above 70% wastegate duty. Will go again when its sorted.
