a little update..
me and my mrs did a little trip to act yesterday to pick up an au t5 bellhousing and flywheel from twason.  ..we took the mrs au and to my surprise we did 600 km to a tank of lpg..  fantastic...so now time to purchase a new hd clutch and finally get rid of the e series bellhousing and the little ea clutch and flywheel..  although considering the power im putting through the ea clutch, its holding up ok but at its limits i think..  a 45ft new years eve burnout certainly put it to the test..  after that the clutch was a bit hot and started to slip alittle telling me it was slipping slightly during the fun.... |

the updates will keep comming..
a new clutch is on the cards in a few weeks!! and due to a blower upgrade i have learnt that i now need 2 blow off valves to release the boost fast enough to stop excess boost flutter.. ..so the modifications continue... once this is done ill be removing the 29lb injectors(due to leaning out up top),fitting the 36lb injectors and going for the re tune... lets see if i can hit the 210rwkw mark...

Put a cooler on it and it will do that easily. Due to space maybe go water to air.

Brett i want to but trying to find something that fits without too much choppy choppy. im currently looking for a water to air set up that will fit under the bonnet. so far its looking like the only thing i can do is mount one over the extractors.. {USERNAME} wrote: will the second valve be in before friday? no im still waiting for one to arrive, so probably another week or so.. i think duel blow off valves will sound interesting?? ricer in stereo.

ok
my second blow off valve arrived today.. unfortunatly i couldnt get the same colour.. so after it fitted im going to sand back the annodised finnish and polish them... now opinions on where to mount it??? it can be mounted just before the throttle body.. this is the best for clearence.. Attachment: DSC01685.JPG or it can be mounted on the oposite side to the other bov between the intake and bbm.??. i think this is the neatest place to put it.. Attachment: DSC01686.JPG and lastly.. straight behind the other bov. i would like to put it here but there is stuff all clearence to the inner guard and about 15mm to the bonnet skin..

My vote goes for the last option Troy. Dont ask me why, I think it just looks better.

I don't know much about this sort of thing, but I think relieving the pressure wave at the source rather than the destination makes more sense, that way if you get straight back on the gas you're not fighting the back wave from when it closed first...
dunno if that makes sense.. but seems feasible... |

To be honest, the more I think about it, the less I think it matters..
If you have say 10psi pushing air into the 4 lt motor faster than it can use it.. the air is moving really really fast... the kinetic energy from the pressure wave would have it bounce off the closed butterfly and be heading back up the intake pipe in considerably less than a second.. so it would already be back at the air box before you could even start to get back on the throttle... Since you already have one at the other end.. perhaps relieving it from both ends would be better... if the pressure wave is back at the airbox already, that is taken care of by the BOV already there.. but the inital rebounding wave would probably instantly open the BOV if it was located near the butterfly... which would lessen significantly the pressure wave heading back up to the airbox. pure supposition of course.... |
