Well I *finally* got around to getting this thing on the dyno, and it almost hit the magic number I wanted. On 18psi it cranked out 480WHP (359RWKW) just short of the 500WHP I thought it would make at that boost. It seems that my 450x300x76 ebay intercooler is out of its depth. Not only is it probably choking, but intake temps were also hitting 60C (140F) and the ECU was pulling timing. In fairness, I knew long ago that the IC needed to be replaced by something better, and I should have done something about it. But hey, all in good time, right?

Nice, can you plot the graph over RPM?

Good results!! Glad you were able to get some numbers on it!
Looking great! I bet e85 is responsible for that 15whp over raji's build.
Im curious how high you pushed the timing? What was your compression? What ecu?

This setup have a meth kit ? If not, drop the coin for even a snow kit for $350 and get those temps down. 500 will be touchable IMO.

Heya!
The motor is an 8.5:1 vanos enabled M50B28 with stock 228's. I kept the stock rod length of 140mm when I bought the Pauter's and had the JE's designed around that and the 84mm stroke. I SHOULD have retained more compression though...20 20 hindsight. The turbs is the 65mm turbine version of Raji's unit and has a 0.84 single scroll housing which looks kinda small....I must do some BP measurements one day. ECU is Autronic SM4 firing 120lb Delphi injectors.
I asked about graphing with RPM but he said it doesn't work....That sucks because that metric is much more useful.
I haven't looked at the ignition map yet because I got home kinda late after the dyno and just parked it and went inside. The ignition map is one thing, but the ECU was pulling timing out of it because of the intake temps, so it may not be entirely useful.
No, I don't have a meth kit but I was talking with my buddy last night about maybe spraying pre-turbo to bring the temps down. This extends the capability of both the turbo and the intercooler (as I'm sure we all know by now). Or I can just get serious with a nice 450x450x76 by Plazmaman (nearly $1000AUD!). I have a 200psi pump that has barely done any work, plus a host of H20 injection bits and pieces as well, so I could well just do something with that.
It should make the 500whp I thought it would, and I'd guess that on the road with serious airflow moving through the core, it probably will. On the dyno it suffers quite a bit with the poor airflow and this showed up in the water temps going over 100C and oil temps hitting 110C. I could see the VE starting to suffer in the top end of 18psi, the fuel table showed it.
It was raining like a beyotch last night so the drive home was boring in the sense that I couldn't taste the power, but a tad scary with my worn RS-R's doing a few aquaplanes here and there! I guess I'll get to feel it out this weekend.

Considering that e85 needs the heat i dont know why you'd pull much timing due to heat. I dont know how much you'd gain from w/m injection. Id go for a better intercooler or a bigger compressor wheel on that turbo

No not that. It says tube and fin... you want bar and plate. Look for louvered And staggered cores.
Garrett, pte, spearco, or even treadstone.

Remember this is on Dyno dynamics. If we had dynojets over here im sure it would have been over 500

I was spraying pre turbo meth on my LS car and saw now difference. I was running a single 1000cc nozzle in the charge pipe right before the throttle body and 2x 500cc nozzles pre turbo's (so one 500cc nozzle on each turbo) and it brought it down some but not enough.
What intake temps were you seeing and where is your sensor?
As far as the autronic ecu, i did a turbo 944 on one. Its pretty cool. One thing i really like is the flow charts for fuel and timing. Its a flow chart that tells you what could be modifying the fueling and timing and by how much. Pretty slick stuff.

No reason to be scared of 140* intake temps with e85.
1992 3000GT VR4. 4g63 Swap. DSM 2g Auto Trans. 10:1, E85, AEM, FP Super 99 turbo. Best ET 9.98...Best MPH 137.8
Mine gets up to 140f in the 1/4 but that's with 28 lbs of boost. Looking at getting a big mambajama core now with dual fans on the front. Guys with blow through carbs on e85 and no intercooler get up to 260 degrees!
140 IAT! You guys run cool!

I know its e85, but thats 6 or so degrees more then ive ever been able to put into one of these engines (referring to the 200kpa column)

What was the result of putting in more timing? Did it detonate or just drop power? Those timing figures are only about 1 to 2 degrees more than what was dialled into it on 98RON fuel.

I'll park these two links here. Food for thought.

they just wouldnt gain anymore. Keep in mind, im talking in pump gas terms and not max effort either. Ill air on the side of caution for most cars, unless its mine, then i usually dump in a bunch of timing and blow it up.
