I have the 16GB iPhone and ill keep this one until they get out to the market the 32GB. The good thing now is that the 16GB 1.1.4 is so easy to hack. I have millions of game and apps with Installer and Cydia. But ill change when they bring the 32GB.

anyone?

[Renzokuken]

I think people tend to get overexcited with bolting this and bolting that on, that they forget a well built bottom end will give you alot more room to play, and alot less money and heartache.

[Doc]

well here is my uneducated thoughts

CPE is too expensice, and doesnt flow as well
PTP slags off lilguy.. and hasnt a great deal of info
Mrlilguy i can buy the bits and do it myself.. <--- bing bing winner

[Corzza]

Cosmic you not wrong!!

Thanks doc, il do some more research on this

[Doc]

corzza.. that your car on the dyno obviously..?

Where you get it done at and how did you go


Doc

[RIP57L]

^^ Yeah how did you go?

[Corzza]

Yeah it is doc.

Done @ SAS 187kw atw


This was over a month ago.

[Laloosh]

TXS front mount

TXS turbo back + downpipe + high flow CAT

Forge BOV

TXS CAI (short ram)

So thats why im interested in the Xede. Want to hit 210 thats roughly another 20kw atw.

Then i will look at getting serious later on.

Bottom end rebuild forge pistons & turbonetics T3/T4 @ 22psi.

What ya think? reasonable

Take a leaf from Cosmics book and run a water/meth kit before you do the Xede.

[Doc]

yeah id have it done all in one hit (water meth and the Xede.. im sure SAS can do it) as the Xede seems to do a pretty good job of running it

Give SAS a call

Doc

[Corzza]

il do some more research

When it comes to water/meth basically a bottle with injector is set up to the CAI? Where do you get the water meth mixture to refill?

[Cosmic3MPS]

Mine injects into the hot side end tank on the intercooler (top mount for now). This way all of the mixture is fully vapourised and cools the charge as it passes across the IC. Chiptorque have actually never installed w/m. They knew about the Xede function and explained it but had not actually installed before. The Xede allows 2 channel control which means that if you wanted could run two injectors to engage under differing conditions.The place that installed mine do it routinely but first time with the Xede as the controller. You make your own mixture (just use methylated spirits also known as denatured alcohol which works just as well as pure methanol). The hardest part is finding a location for the bottle as there is stuff all room under the hood. They did a great job on mine. Looks like it factory installed. 50/50 or 60/40 maximum mixture gives the best results to control detonation, increase the octane rating of your fuel, cool your air charge and clean the crap out of your engine. Promise you won't regret doing this. It is a great choice.

[Doc]

i too may look into this..

If you want to go with a bigger turbo later on, i recommend you Precision Turbo. The turbos are excellent and the warranty too.

[Corzza]

Hey cosmic thanks for the info man! Sounds well worth the effort.

alextek i will take that into consideration, Thanks!

Pleasure mate. Do a bit of research on w/m and it is a fascinating area. Goes back to WW2 and the german fighter planes (the brits caught on and copied for their planes later). It made a brief appearance in Formula 1 as well but was soon banned as the cars were making ridiculous amounts of power.

[Doc]

I remember working on the old 707's (as in first Boeing passenger jetliner) and that had water injection on it jet engines to gets its arse off the ground on hot days.. It was a real kick in the pants when you flipped it on during an engine run on the ground.


Think fire hose of water.. well almost

Back on topic
