[Mk2 Turbo] Tuned at Thor, Results are in!

[nutter]

Well I've just got back from Thor. It's been a day and a half but i've finally got some figures i'm pleased with.

Mods of note :

Rev 2 engine, Ross forged pistons, Port and polished head, rev 3 inlet cam.

ATS td06
Wolfkatz fuel rail, 800cc injectors, Walbro pump, aeromotive FPR.
Radtec Chargcooler

And.....

344BHP @ 6143 RPM at the hubs
322lbft @ 5080 at the hubs

at 1.7 bar

Heres the graph:



I'm really happy with torque, it puts my mind at ease about the supposed lagginess of the TD06!

Thanks to everyone who has helped me get this far. Special thanks to Andi and Mark for helping me go through the car on saturday

Managed to give it a bit of stick on the way home and managed to blow the CC pipe to throttle body clean off! TOOOO much booooost!

[AM TUNING]

[nutter]

[cantfindausername]

Congrats man. Thats nice curavture goin on that graph!

[greeny]

Nice results m8! The ATS turbos are making me dr00l atm

[Andy Jones]

Very nice Dean =D> =D> =D> =D> =D>

Is that the 1st test for the Radtec CC? (and did you push it for more boost )

Had the CC pipe blow off on mine once while giving it some and my heart sank when the boost needles returned to 0 - It's nice when it's something simple

[luthor1]

...at 15psi I bet it's still making 250/260bhp.

Run it at 15psi for that beautiful engine longevity and reliability and whack up to 25 for supercar baiting!

Nice build mate, good to see the right mods in there.... =D>

[nutter]

Greeny :

Can't say too much on the radtec at the mo but suffice to say it did what it was supposed to do and more

[sig]

TD06 rocks! I'm sure other turbos would produce the numbers, but i hope this dispells the lag myth that is associate with these turbos!

Andy,

I don't think its the first test for the radtec, but it is the highest numbers produced i believe,

I was worried about pushing the turbo out of it's efficiency range so didn't want to push her to 2 bar. I'll do some research on this!

Luthor1,

Plenty of fuel and plenty of cooling, thats the key my friend!

I have the boost solonoid on a switch, with it off i get about 12 psi....... I'm not the switch will get used much thou

[jaxx]

cool!

hopefully have a TD06 myself in the near future

next winters project methinks!

[karammander]

sorry to seem dumb but who sells the radtec charge cooler?

cheers karam

[matt_mr2t]

[nutter]

End of plug

Link XLEM

great excellent super... =D>

all good,what i really like as well is the keeping is straight forward and the priority with cooling and fueling

makes me think,2,........as i have similair set up,(not 2 fancy)

would you consider any form of electronics at all,apexi fc,afc,avcr....and
so on

seems spot on though...

I'm a firm believer in the KISS rule Harry : Keep It Simple Stupid

I might get an AVCR so i can adjust the boost. I have the Link ECU which controls everything (including flat shift and launch control )

[nisnos]

excellent numbers!
my tdo6,800's etc should be here soon!

bet it flies!
what head gasket you running?

Cool, Make sure you get a decent pump and fuel rail (if you've got a rev 1/2) and you'll be flying too! For reference at that power my injectors were at 70% duty.

Cometic metal headgasket

[nisnos]

yup my order from peter is
tdo6 - 800's - rail - afpr - pump - etc

i already have the Chargecooler fitted.
i decided to do the head gasket when it goes (righ or wrong but i wont disturb it if its doing its stuff!)

i also ordered cam gears and a few other bits i hope to make some magic!

ecu will be mapped once its all on!


out of interest - what the hell does that type of power feel like in a 2??!!
