Guest Enzo Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 hey, good to see you over here.is that power at the wheels?if so thats the most amount of power ive seen from a 4efe as that would be well over 100 at the fly Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The cams did make the difference with tuning to aftermarket standalone ECU (at the expense of stalling all the time with a/c turn on)The UK weather might not be friendly to my specs In Aussie winter (7 degrees coldest), I am having problem starting it and stalling with a/c Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Starlet SR Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 v nice mate did the 4efte inlet manifold and tb make much difference im thinking off putting one on Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nicwan8 Posted June 21, 2009 Author Share Posted June 21, 2009 v nice mate did the 4efte inlet manifold and tb make much difference im thinking off putting one onI'm using 4efte intake manifold only with my stock 4efe tb. I have been trying to search 4efte AUTO tb to fit into my car.As for 4efte intake manifold, there are noticable gains, but that's because I have move my limiter to 7200rpm.

Veldugo Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 Good Job mate, very clean!!! just one question, you have a turbo timer on no turbo engine?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Enzo Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 would the specs of your cams work as well on a 4efte? also what does that power equate to at the fly? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nicwan8 Posted June 23, 2009 Author Share Posted June 23, 2009 Good Job mate, very clean!!! just one question, you have a turbo timer on no turbo engine??That's the water and oil temp digital gauge Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nicwan8 Posted June 23, 2009 Author Share Posted June 23, 2009 would the specs of your cams work as well on a 4efte? also what does that power equate to at the fly?IMO, the specs should be OK. but the builder of the cam had to reduce the lift slightly for the needed duration after asking if my car is turbo/NAI don't have the exact calculation of power at the fly. Aussie dyno only measure wheel hp. But from the rough calculation:2/3 --> 86.41 --> (86.4/0.6666)roughly = 130bhp (could be less; not sure the exact calculation) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
7001 Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 in my opinion, the specs should be OK. but the builder of the cam had to reduce the lift slightly for the needed duration after asking if my car is turbo/NAI don't have the exact calculation of power at the fly.

nicwan8 Posted August 24, 2009 Author Share Posted August 24, 2009 Recently added a solenoid to the car that turns on when the a/c is turn on.What the solenoid does is sucking air from "before TB" and pushing it into "after TB"This helps a bit from stalling when a/c is on.Currently the car revs at 1260 RPM without a/c, lights, heater. When a/c and lights are turn on, it drops to about 850-900 RPM which is just the point before it stalls. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
