Taz_Rx Posted November 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Yeah I just gotta put it back together again some time this week and I'll come out. I'll go down to the inspection station and get myself some calamari for dinner while I'm there! :jamie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taz_Rx Posted November 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 Fitted an S14 T28 with the .64 rear housing on Saturday. Â The .64 makes general off-boost cruising duties a bit easier, and dare say more fuel efficient. Â Spools at maybe 3500rpm, rather than 2500rpm. Gate pressure is at a lazy 8 psi and feel pretty pathetic compared to the T25G at gate pressure(10psi). Yeah maybe I'm making more top end power, but doesn't seem worth it without that BIG .48 push in the back! Â Flick the switch and its a bit better! Data logger says I maxxed 14.4psi so I've got it set pretty well for the ceramic wheel. :( Just keeps pulling harder and harder through the revs......don't think I've seen the shift light this much for a while! :bash: Â Hoping to get it back out to the dragway this weekend if I'm lucky and then the proof will be in the pudding...or ET maybe. :y: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toy-Yoda[RL] Posted November 12, 2008 Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 I'm seriously considering it, I'll turbo the other engine and keep the current one as NA for when the turbo one pops......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finally got those bolts out so will rember to lock the dizzy this time :P How much is efi's for k engines? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taz_Rx Posted November 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 Paid $250 for the EFI system, had to get bigger injectors, ECU, fuel fitting etc etc. Then tuning as well. Â Do yourself a favour mate and go and get some correct size auto hose and piss off the garden hose. It'll get hot and crack or melt. Bad idea.
