looks like a very good job daniel_g

i'd assume he means the gt2860rs...disco potato which seems very popular

thanks bean now first off, this set up is on a 1998 ep91 glanza automatic which was converted to manual,,, i dont know if the other ep91 years (1996, 1997, 1999) and/or the auto ep82 has the same exact plug and/or harness/ecu wiring...my car was originally an automatic with ECT (electronic controlled transmission i think it meant)...i know my ecu has 3 plugs i have heard that the 1994/1995 ep82 automatic with round lights had a 3 plug ecu as well??!?!?...but i'm not sure if they had ECT and the same ecu/wiring as the glanza/ep91 the older model ep82s had 2 plugs ecus from what i remem

i sent them bean

i'd suggest one of you guys just notify sasha/wepr about this issue so he can correct it on the jig for future productions sasha is a helpful guy...and i'm sure its something he would do to make his clients happy
-
bean...pm me your email address so i can send them to you also one of you can post them on here for the entire forum

the copper plugs handle high boost...way more than 1 bar i have seen ngk bkr7e and bkr8e used in excess 1 bar and up to 20/22psi without any problems in 4e/5e engines save some money...just get copper next time in a different car, i've seen them handle 2+ bar with meth and race gas

i have some pics i could email you with the plug i used in the engine bay--connected to the reverse switch....you can post them here afterwards if they are what you need i dont know how to load pics on the site (or any site for that matter)
-
if n/a....i'd stick with the emb....relatively cheap and should do all you want but in all honesty...i dont think you will see much gains even with a piggyback
-
i dont own one ...but i know a friend who should have one at hand

seems greddy is popular with ep82/91 because over the years members have gotten good results and more importantly reliability using emu/emb they have been used on street, track/strip, circuit on the gts/glanzas for the average build 4e/5e, emanage ultimate is usually enough to get the job done----tune fuel and ignition, datalog, raise rev limit, "launch control/step limiter", run auxiliary items using separate map, etc now if you are building a dedicated monster and/or have access to reasonable tuners and well priced standalones----then staondalone systems start to look more
-
not certain why you haven't...but i hit limiter in my ep91...think i need to check the clocks when i do to confirm....maybe over the weekend when/if i drive the car (tropical island, but we do get rain lol)
-
the extension harness will really make it pnp and tidy ....saves a ton of hassle when needed to be removed and keeps your original loom intact (no cutting or splicing) hence no potential electrical issues later on
-
is there a different stock rev limit for the ep82 vs the ep91? i've heard people say 7600 for ep91 in the past....but i've never really checked...as the rev counter seem to indicate the ep91 limits at the same 7200 rpm based on the red markings
-
i'd also suggest the emu with pnp harness
-
thought's on speedvision hybrid ct9?
gorganl2000 replied to phil_boyd's topic in Intake, Turbo & Exhaust
http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/98430-turbo-choice/ take a look at that chart... dyno numbers are not really a good comparison by themselves is there any more information on the set up?...as those numbers sounds rather high based on what i've seen over the years thanks -
maybe that's the reason we see so many vids of supposedly "1000whp or high powered" machines getting whipped on the track/circuit/strip but much lesser powered cars
-
just a cautionary note here for members, especially those who are not so familiar with dynos and see members projects and dyno results be very careful in comparing dyno numbers...it's really not that simple, they are a lot of variables to consider including the dyno settings, tuners/tuning equipment ability, pump gas quality in different areas, climate, etc...even if assuming relatively similar builds we have a very wide cross section of people on this forum from very different regions....please don't take dyno numbers as the gospel....they will vary significantly across regions and ev

i know back in the day some guys used to purposely disconnect the 02 sensor in order to run more fuel when they put on bigger turbos.....this method was even more crude than the fpr/fcd system i suspect the stock ecu goes in to some kind of "safe mode" when the 02 sensor is not detected and over fuels to protect the engine
-
100% agreed wrt the copper plugs
-
a bit dated my post, but nonetheless, a few years back i was driving home and all of a sudden my ep91 felt sluggish and when i checked the "waste of money, cheap, Christmas tree, pretty light" afr guage i realised it was stuck in the "green/rich"....i pulled over, and checked the engine bay to see my 02 sensor wire broken. drove home with the car feeling sluggish and smelling somewhat of petrol. i reconnected the 02 sensor wire and immediately the car felt better....iirc i was running a JAM ecu at the time PS--those cheap afr guages are a waste, but it did seem to indicate the car was run
-
i've done a lot of research on vf and td turbos over the years now....seems 1.5bar is the "recommended" max on the vf35 However,,,and caution is advised here...a few sub owners have ran 1.6 - 1.7 bar ...i suppose it will only spike there and bleed back off...maybe give that little extra torque/hp in the mid range i'm not too sure if there will be a difference in the impact of 1.6/1.7 bar on a turbo (vf35 or any other) on a 2000cc vs a 4e/5e i always figured absolute boost pressure is boost pressure regardless ....however, maybe on a bigger engine (2000cc sub in this case) the turbo is

i must say, that's great advice again such a common mistake though
-
hey bean, it that 227hp the Wheel HP.....converted to 303Brake HP? was this on a 4wd dyno or did you run the system disconnected? i think i recall you posting the other graph a long time ago...but i could be wrong lol
