Tehnation Posted February 9 Author Share Posted February 9 I didn't have any time to play with the fuel pressure. But it isn't as bad as before. I'm at the tuner now getting a flex fuel tune. They say it usually adds 20% more power. With my 360hp that's about 70 more. Which should get me over 400. Stay tuned. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tehnation Posted February 9 Author Share Posted February 9 Haha , I'm now at 389 awhp, without the e85. Got an extra 30 hp from the simple fixes, Turbo inlet, aos system. Not sure what did what. They are putting in e85 now. Stay tuned! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Code Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 That’s great. Post your dyno graph if tuner shares it with you. That things a rocket now. "Striving to better, oft we mar what's well." - Bill Shakespeare - car modder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tehnation Posted February 9 Author Share Posted February 9 Just got home. Tons of power and the hesitation is gone, so now I can cruise around between 2-3k rpm. Waiting for them to email me my dyno charts 20240209_133507.mp4 20240209_140633.mp4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tehnation Posted February 9 Author Share Posted February 9 The mods I did that gave me the bump from 360-390 -Swapped out the catted dp with oem connection for stock exhaust to catless full 3" -killer b hard turbo inlet -IAG AOS kit with competition kit to vent to atmosphere -Blox racing aluminum TGV deletes with 18mm spacers. I think the dp and turbo inlet did the most, but I'll gladly take whatever extra hp on 93 octane. They also said my injectors need to be cleaned, cause they were seeing a bunch of misfires and my injectors are old now that I'm thinking about it, so I gotta get that done.

LegacyGT007 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Very Nice! Now you're at my HP level. I would recommend IDs. I sent my injectors to ID and had them flow tested and found one that was more than 3% off the others, so I had them match another to my set to get then all within 1-2% flow of eachother. I had them in for less than 1k miles before they were sent. You never can be too cautious. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tehnation Posted February 9 Author Share Posted February 9 If I change injectors I need to retune it, $$$, so it makes more sense to just fix what I got. Mine are DW, they do all that stuff as well. The ID's are the best but these 400 dollar injectors seem to be doing just fine lol. The injectors have been sitting for really long periods of time, so they actually haven't had much use. Thats probably why they are dirty. 390 and 440 awhp with a little 20g with TMIC isn't bad! The best part is look at that RPM! I got power up to 7k, and it doesn't really fall off, so I can run to 7.5-8k rpm. I can literally drive in any gear, the power band is crazy. Ballin on a budget!

LegacyGT007 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Sonic cleaning works well. I'm just a bit obsessed with making sure everything is at peak performance. I don't want something simple I missed undo all the hard work and $ spent. Glad you get to enjoy your car. Btw...what turbo you running again? I'm on a FP Green HTZ with the 2.5 inlet.

Tehnation Posted February 9 Author Share Posted February 9 I'm running a BNR Billet 20g I bought for like 800 bucks.... lol https://bnrsupercars.wpcomstaging.com/subaru-turbo-upgrades/ Looks like they go for 1k now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegacyGT007 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 (edited) I heard good things about the BNRs. I'm going to upgrade to ID 1700s because my ID1300Xs were at 90% duty. I've since added a second 450 walley and still have to install my 8AN feed line and 6AN return. Flirting with the possibility of putting in the xona rotor 6157S and see what I can make with a .82 hotside. The Green has a .57 hotside but they are both 61lb turbos. My curiosity is killing me.

Tehnation Posted February 9 Author Share Posted February 9 That seems like a lot of fuel. What fuel are you running? I'm still on oem plumbing. Looks like my giant cams are actually doing something. My solution for all the craziness was to just get cams that have a crap ton of duration, and not extra lift. So rather than cramming more fuel within a certain window, I opted to just widen or open the window more. I think the cams are one of the biggest factors for these results. 390 on pump gas @ around 6750rpm and a 20g with 1000cc injectors isn't what people get with regular cams. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tehnation Posted February 9 Author Share Posted February 9 I think cams are a seriously underrated mod for these cars! These 600 dollar cams made a world of difference overall for my cheap setup. With any other car, 1st thing people look at are the cams... but subarus its a like cams are some side note. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegacyGT007 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 They absolutely do. I chose GSC S1s. Not sure if I want to go to S2s. I enjoy the mid-range area of the curve, especially the torque in the beginning of the mid-range. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegacyGT007 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 I run E65. It's the best I can get in the Poughkeepsie area. As for fueling, I want to eliminate any issue that may be affecting my fueling. I always plan for the future. Two pumps are like backups to eachother. If I have one that fails, I always have a backup to get home. I'm far from done with the mods. I have almost everything I need, just not the time 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tehnation Posted February 9 Author Share Posted February 9 I was gonna go with stage 1 or 2 cams, but it looked like they were just more lift, so I went with the BrianCrower stage 3 race cams which emphasize more duration rather than lift, and no modifications were needed for the head, ie grinding stuff etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tehnation Posted February 9 Author Share Posted February 9 Whos your tuner if you dont mind me asking? CT makes me think EFI. edit.... Poughkeepsie is NY.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegacyGT007 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Yes it was tuned at EFI by Calvin Dotson. Back in March 2021. Kept the tune safer. It's a hybrid MAF/SD. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegacyGT007 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 I'm trying to keep as much torque as possible. I'm at 9.0 compression with +1mm GSC oversized valves. The whole top end is GSC, even the Beehive Springs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tehnation Posted February 10 Author Share Posted February 10 So when reading the ethanol content, I found ethanol final or something like that in my cobb ap, is that the percentage of ethanol out of 100%? I am assuming 10-85% is all I can get, 10% from pump gas and 85% from e85. I just want to make sure that percentage isn't on some other scale.

LegacyGT007 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Ethanol Final should be correct. The best I get here is 65% 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
