Any reason to pick the AU flywheel over any of the EB-AU 6 bolt flywheels?

I'm sure we will all want to see a new vid once the clutch is done to see how it goes now.

Fair enough man. I have an AU one in the shed as a spare, and i can't see any difference to the ED 6 bolt one in my EB atm.

Well done those kinda figures should keep the crowd giggling at the dyno day when the near stock NF steps up to the plate.
No wonder you were in a good mood regarding moderator applications :lol: :lol:

still no intercooler yet....
with todays ambient temp of 26 deg, with normal cruising speed on the dyno intake temp sat spot on 50 deg c.
after boostng up to 5800 rpm it went up to 70 deg c and within 14 seconds the temp had dropped back to a steady 50 deg again..
not ideal but still produced good power considering.. :)

Nice one Troyski.....

Looks like the cam you have is doing a good job....I need a better cam... :(
Imagine you much more you could get with a consistent 50 deg IAT. Is the slipping clutch the reason for your withdrawal from the dyno day?? Shame. I can recommend the valeo HD clutch if you're after a better one. Do you have a preference already??

Cheers mate

Troyman, that's great news on latest tune. All starting to come together now! Was the engine not getting enough fuel on the previous tune?

What are your intentions re: intercooling....air/air or water/air?

You'll have to fill us in on how the vehicle is driving now.

Joe

on the last tune the ba 29lb injectors were at 100% duty and it was starting to lean out up top.
and the tuner said that its best to go with bigger 36lb injectors, which i finally got around to fitting..

the car so much beter to drive now..he had to remove alittle more timing because of pinging..
before the tune it felt very aggresive with down low throttle responce (which i liked) that was due to too me adding to much accelerator enrichment on the ecu which was getting thursty on fuel and anoying when you wanted light throttle and cruise.. :roll:

im still not sure on what intercooling set up to go with??
the tuner says i could possably gain another 10-15 rwkw by adding an intercooler, this way he can put a s**t load more timing back into it.. 8-)
so next on the list.. change the flywheel and clutch ect..

Top stuff mate, if you dont want to cut holes in your car to fit i/c piping you could just do a water 2 air setup.

I know that theres been alot of discussion on water injection and w2a, to me id want something that requires the least amount of maintainence with as little chance of failing.

Just looking at shav's raptor powered au shows me that the intake temps will always be near ambient which = a more consistent 200+rwkw car.

Troyman, thats all sounds great. Surprises me about the injectors being @ 100% duty cycle. My tuner said my 24lb injectors were running at only round 70% on the last tune. Good to get that sorted.

Let us know how you go with intercooler.

Joe

yea mine toppped out at 175rwkw with 24lb injectors..
then topped out at 200rwkw with the 29lb injectors..
now 216rwkw with the 36lb injectors there is plenty of room for more fuel, i just dont think it will get anymore power without an intercooler or head work??
something i havnt mentioned though, is that im not running any rising rate fuel reg.. just the std vct reg..with a walbro 255 pump..
and fuel pressure holds a steady 50 psi all the way to rev cut...

Rising rate regs are also a bandaid in my opinion. A well tuned setup works way better, as you have proven.

again Troy congrats on your top result mate.

The cam looks like it makes a considerable difference. Im impressed to say the least considering you have no intercooler and manual. You'll probably find the power drop off a little after a number of runs or peak hour traffic. The w2a setup is always a good option to maintain your peak power regardless of what temp the day is. But gives you more room to increase timing as you say.

My biggest issue with my car is the exhaust system is too small, and the cam is small too. plus not sure if the auto can handle much more power going thru the stock internals. I can only imagine what mine would be capable of with those issues addressed as well as a manual conversion. Believe me when I say, you will want an intercooler sooner rather than later. :lol:
