And here's the answer to why you've got farked up noises in ya ka

[G-unit]

lol overboosting much

my TT on 95 octane held 10 and 15psi solid

[Guest]

lol it goes hard tho hahah, put some race octane booster in the tank and that stopped the noise I was hearing so all sorted really!

[sultan]

Are you trolling or just a moron?

[Jambun]

w0w

[Guest]

not trolling at all . . are you?

[rex-leggy]

the rattle will be the least of your issues ..... i bet your ringlands are already blown

[sultan]

You've installed a boost tap or something, cranked up the boost until it makes funny noises, then think that pouring a bottle of shit in your gas tank will make it sweet? When you blow it up, I'm sure you'll tell all your mates how unreliable subarus are

[Guest]

no boost tap, just has 4mm vac lines, full exhaust, walbro, boost gauge, and just happens to boost 18 psi on primary and 20 some times 22 psi on secondary.

[Guest]

octane booster isn't shit . . well this stuff wasn't, obviously will have to start running 98 all the time or when can't get it use octane booster, the rings should be okay as the turbo blocks can with stand 22psi this is coming from a subaru service center.

They could only handle 22psi if tuned for it. They can't withstand detonation.

[Guest]

well just driven 600 + ks over the weekend and the car went well so there is no sign of any thing giving up yet, haha I hope it doesn't

[sultan]

Why did you even bother posting anything when you already know all the answers?

[Guest]

I didn't know all the answers? I just wanted to know what det sounded like and tried to describe my symptoms to see if others thought it was det . . I still don't know for sure if it is

You tube some sound clips. I was kinda worried about my noises from the engine bay but it was a combination of oil and my v3 heads that make it tick when cold.

Dunno if it's true or a story I'm being sold by two workshops but *sigh* it's not burning oil or coolant tho.

i had the understanding that v3 (solid shim) heads shouldn't tick. however hydrolic lifters do when thy get sticky

They do if you have any wear and the clearances have grown too large.

Also, looking at your introduction thread, your car has only got the 380cc injectors (unless you've upgraded to a later model GTB ECU) and those little injectors can't handle any more than 15psi reliably.

[Marky]

Thorpys facelift GTB loved 22psi a few years back
