    Running new genuine v9 sti cop in wasted spark. Injector end angle? Tried 360 and 470deg issue stays with both.

    ok good now what are your coil dwell times

    Sure its not engine related. Go see marc he has a block and you have far too much money.

    Check your HT leads are not too close to the engine harness as this can cause sync issues with the cam sensor.

    Also what injector end angle are you running?

    Thanks for sharing info on your setup man. Ahh meth, the good stuff :)

    No worries - indeed 10% meth added directly into the tank (assuming the fuel pipework and FPR has been selected for meth resistance as is the case here) adds huge potential for extra ignition advance. I prefer this approach over the extra hassle, weight and failure risk of a meth/water injection system ;)

    As far i know, raijin is running the Blouch 1.5xtr on a built 2.1l

    Pulls look to be in 3rd gear because that's making alot more kw & torque then my 2.5xtr. Also noticed they are uncorrected figure on dyno plot??

    Hi it's nothing too hairy given it is also a road car. It's a Blouch 2.5XTR on a built 2.35 CDB with V8 Sti heads and standard cams with v mount intercooler/rad set up and a splash of meth in the fuel. Operator was using STP for correction. These are 4th gear runs. IAT and ECT are handled nicely by the vmount :)

    It can be tuned out/adjusted on a REV D, by changing the IACV opening threshold voltage. Telemekas would be the man to ask about that:

    Actually the effect can be obtained by adjusting the delay values on the ECU for the IACV opening in addition to recalibrating a number of other parameters relating to turbo transition which is what I did with Jag's car when I mapped it (evljat). This does require full definitions for the ROM on the ECU though. This is why the 0.8mm restrictor hack did not provide any additional benefit as the ECU was already producing the desired behaviour via recalibration (I was just curious to see if there was any additional influence) :)

    Sorry to thread-jack but raijin that looks friggin awesome.

    Is that a custom radiator or did you re-purpose something else?

    I plan to copy that pretty much exactly for the race car.

    Thanks I have located a supplier in China who can fabricate the V mount IC and rad combo similar to the process west set up for Subarus but at a fraction of the price. The quality of the workmanship is superb. It even has a built in oil cooler integrated into the bottom of the radiator (the unions are on the driver side of the rad) :)

    why would i need a extra bubble pipe off the radiator tank to the header tank in boot aalso would that mean running 1 overflow bottle or two

    You'll need some way of getting air out of the top of the radiator in the boot hence the bubble pipe. You should be fine with one overflow bottle but you may find you need a decent size bottle given the larger capacity of the system.

    i have the setup all figured out i will be using 2 12inch ducting tubes from each window . no boot floor and 2 15inch fans on a.big custom 2~3 core radiator i just want to know basiclly the plumbing side of it. because i have heard alit people talk about bubble tanks and header tanks all over the show etc

    Good work. You will need some form of scoops to ram the air down the ducts too. Re plumbing you should be ok with one header tank in the engine bay and one in the boot. Just make sure that the header tank in the boot is above the highest point of the rad and all your pipe work of course. You could use an oem one in the boot and have a bubble pipe return from the rad to the header tank.

    Depending on the efficiency of the core you are intending to use, it can difficult to get sufficient cooling with a boot mount without getting some form of decent airflow through the boot of the car via ducting. A couple of fans won't cut it for heavy duty/track work. If you are struggling with your ECT with your current set up, due to an FMIC restricting airflow through your radiator for example, I would recommend a V-mount set up on the front. Here's mine. ECT sits at 87 degrees with sustained hard driving and ACT sits around 5 degrees above ambient at around 27 psi boost.

    So whilst I'm not planning to do anything atm I'm on the knowledge path. anyways, enough said. Can The Rev B RSK Legacy B4 ECU be tuned? If not then what do I need to do? Get a link? Or what? Any help, info appreciated. As I said guys, just trying to learn atm. Thnks y'all :-)

    Hi if it is an MY01 car onwards then yes the ECU can be reflashed and the car can be tuned so it is det free and the VOD is greatly improved on twin turbo models. Here is one I mapped previously.

    Raijin, would you happen to know what block type the early gen1 220 brightons had for their EJ22? Cheers.

    Hi sorry for the late response.The non turbo EJ22 engines are open deck. I got my EJ22t from a farmer in the USA who had an old turbo legacy as a farm round about!

    Hi a wee update:

    1. Piston rock to head clearance measured for minimum HG thickness

    2. 98mm MLS gaskets and ARP L19 Headstuds

    3. Heads chambered and cc'd for the 98mm bore. Supertech valves in there too. Woof woof.

    The motor is in now in the car and being run in :)
