shrike Posted April 25, 2022 Posted April 25, 2022 Should post a video of what it's doing in the base tune that @Studid for you. Did it still have issues once you fixed the timing/sensors? When I had my r32 I once plugged the injector loom in backwards so it coughed and spluttered but didn't fire. 1 Quote

RUNAMUCK Posted June 19, 2022 Posted June 19, 2022 Are you going to fill in the floor of the intake ports Dan? Vizards book about making these motors breath say the floors of the ports are dead space. Pretty sure @nismo.capri filled the floor on his old Van's head. (That thing was quite jolly peppy too!) He reckoned his head out flowed the one in the book too. (Not that any two flowbenches will read the same) 1 Quote

(Not that any two flowbenches will read the same) I was thinking about it mate as everyone keeps telling me it's not to essential being forced induction...but I just keep thinking it it makes NA breath so much better then ut must work as welk for turbo Quote
RUNAMUCK Posted June 19, 2022 Posted June 19, 2022 So that's a yes. Over half of that book was about making the head work properly. 1 Quote

Over half of that book was about making the head work properly. yeah... think I'm going to take some time with the head ... port match the exhaust side to manifold.. and clean uo the flow and a bigger value. the intake needs a bit of work. port match the opening (properly...rushed it last time as it was just to see if it worked). to adapter plate and manifold.. knife endge the valve area .. remove that sharp turn at the valve end on the floor and clean up that flow straight down the throat to the bigger valve... it's only a evo 4/5 td05 on there ..but u would like to see if I can use it all....then look at sizing up. 1 Quote
