CR is now 9:1?

looks pretty good mate! although you really see where the turbo is the bottleneck. above 6500rpm the torgue drops off steeply! anyway i'm sure it drives great! what is peak boost atm?

i know it won't be schocking numbers but that's not what i'm looking for, i'm just curious how the torgue spread is as thats more usefull then max bhp's. btw, have you ever measured the lobe height, angle etc of both 172 and 197 cams? curious what the diff is.

sounds great mate! looking forward to some RR printouts when you finish mapping!

good to see the progress mate! if you're binning them might aswell give them to me :D

already thinking on that kind of solutions. first thing is to get it all welded up and running :)

can't agree with you more, i'm going to have a big challenge there as i don't want to make holes in the bodywork, try to keep it looking like it hasn't got an engine in the back. ah well, how boring would life be if there weren't any challenges!

it has airfeeds on both sides btw: iirc he managed a 3,9s 0-60 time with a 220-230 c1j engine :D although on damp asphalt the car tried to kill him

making a rear engined car offcourse comes with other challenges but i do like the finish of the welding, turrets etc. i read alot on passionford too and there are some great prjects to follow! it really doesn't matter to me what mark it is, i'm just intrigued by the high standards of particular...

i'm planning on doing it to my 5 when i get back, big inspiraion for me is the 5 Scoff had in the past. i'm sure you're familiar with the car?

well maybe i could give your heart a rest. since the implimentating of EU laws it has become a lot easier to do engine swaps etc. here. so maybe it isn't as bad as you think. my 9 currently has a 2.0 f7r on paper, all i had to do was go to a RDW station (don't know how to explain it but thats...

that's the big reason i spend more time on UK's forums then Dutch. They don't have an open mind like you guys do. i do think some crazy projects look like s**t because it's done bad and all but i do admire the creativeness of it! (4wd, rwd conversions etc.)

could be i'm just panicking. i'm not scared ruining the engine because of the cost or work, it's just i got slayed on dutch forums i shouldn't be trying these things myself and leave it to the professionels. but i'm convinced it's no rocket science, and even if it is they had to learn it too so...

i was more targeting on det issues, at low rpm i think i hear det trough my cans but it shouldn't be possible. it only shows when coming on boost and even stays present with only 5* at 140kpa :S so i'll try the map i made with help of Scoff and just see what happens... i know a f4r could be...

okey, i thought it was actually a 59-1-2 then. never to old to learn :)

i know but just as you say i now have no idea what i'm looking at. ofcourse it could be done with calculations for VE to get some starting point as obviously the fuel you have to put in is directly affected by the VE. i'll just wait and see by the time i get back home. had some help from Scoff...

why would it not run? omex needs real 60-2 right? please explain.

irc it's not a true 60-2 pattern. there's a long lobe just before the missing teeth. you could make it 2 teeth with a dremel.

lol, i have been driving for 3-4 hours with a friend of mine not getting anywhere. however it's the first time i ever do this so it's trial and error anyway. when i get back i'll hook my WB up on the Megasquirt and let it autotune the fuel map for a big range. would atleast get me started...

well maybe the slighlty larger compressor made a difference too but it did change from 14.0 to 14.7 on cruise. doesn't matter anymore though as you know i now have standalone fitted so will have to do it over again anyway.
