crustydemons666 Posted February 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 Mates bringing around another loom and we are gonna loom at mine. Also have a tvis on its way. Car isnt really a daily anymore. It was a yellow sticker job before i did the motor so lets scrap the street car bit. I plan on working it sometime in the future. Will the e-management be a good investment for basic upgrades like cams the throttle bodys, and could it handle a turbo or charger? thanks for the help also.

ke70dave Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 From comparing price and features, I would be inclined to go for one of those new haltech sprint 500's. They look like a nice bit of kit. for a simple engine such as the 4age bigport. I would defiantely go completely aftermarket, no piggy back thing.

Yes, depending on what you have in mind you may be limited by the 1bar internal MAP sensor, but you can get a 3bar add-on item. At least, when I last checked them that was the case. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GJM85 Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 If your doing your compression test correctly then you could expect a bit more than 150 psi. I would suspect cam timing. Warm engine. All plugs out. Wide open throttle and turn it over testing each cylinder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timbo Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 Check you TPS too, lots of people overlook it but it can really affect the motors overall performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
