If you turn the alt off you will have low voltage at wot. I used a 40$ vx v6 commodore alt with the evo pulley (modified slightly).

I finally killed the stock block evo 9 running an fp black on around 37psi when it went mid corner. The most spectacular destruction iv seen on a 4g for a long time lol. I put up a pic of the log in the session before on the same corner, the white line down the bottom is oil pressure or lack of...

Yeah I want to drop down to well designed 20l tank with no surge tank a one pump for simplicity on a circuit car.

Just remember to keep it low. Any more info on your ideas for internal surge?

The blacks are not worth much because no one wants them on street cars. I don't know about you but every time I look at that power curve I think how close to perfect that turbo is for the fast circuits we run at. It doesn't drop below 5k, just need to change your driving pattern to suit.

Never even gets really warm, I got told I should be good without heat sink but just mounted it to a a bit of alloy square tube which i mounted a relay inside and a circuit breaker on the out side.

The best bit was the fact that we got the fp black for $600 with low hours on it, sold the std evo 9 turbo for $600, sold the dump pipe we got with the FP black for $250 and sold the plasma man cold side outlet pipe that also came on the black for $200. Winning??!!

I was really surprised how sensitive it is below boost /sub 2000rpm. Its a 100Amp dc/dc jaycar solid state relay ($47) with a 0.18v voltage drop at 100% duty. I just run it off a general purpose pwm output @100hz and have the table axis as Boost vs Rpm and run as low as 30%duty (around 7volts)...

Its a really basic setup and tuned fat with little timing as it purely a circuit car with rego just to comply with class rules. Its on united e85 because its only $220 for 200L, way cheaper than Caltex E flex. We run the bosch id2000 style injector ($530 for 4) controlled by a vipec and injector...

Yea I made a small alloy muffler for it too, I was worried about the noise restrictions at lakeside on the W/E, it ended up being quieter than the stainless on that came off and the muffler is straight through with no restrictions.

Its setup so it only runs 25 psi at peak torque and ramps up 30psi at 7000rpm, keeping the torque down at peak torque is the key to keeping them alive. I can't remember what torque it made. I turned the boost right down yesterday because the driver was only just getting use to 270kws and the...

Evo 9 with std 2l block cam and springs with a second hand FP black. Mivec makes the most impressive power curves, no way in the world I could of done this without it. 335kws isn't bad for a std motor the heads never been off. It did it on next ups Dyno which is one of the only brutally honest...

its a 9 with 7 tail lights lol. Its a good friends but I get to build it the way I want and drive it at the track if I want, iv done all the work on it bar the cage that came in the shell. Makes 300wkw on factory motor and fp black @27psi, im just about to build a 2.3 for it and a long rod 2.4...

Iv seen alloy dump pipes survive behind 1500hp big block chevs.It not a new thing and has been proven. This will do 100 laps in anger then its getting a 3.5.

The dump pipe is stainless to the sump so it will be fine.

Haha yea it was re shelled due to a big off at Queensland raceway. These were the cheapest panels available, one day it will get a vinyl wrap but at the moment thats not going to make it faster lol

Just finished a 3 inch straight through exhaust for an evo 9, topped the scales at 4kg. 12kgs less than the stainless one I replaced.

Link G4 or vipec followed by haltech. Those are the easiest to tune anyway.

Not on pump fuel, the margin for error is too small. You can also make way more power from running it fat and having more timing than running it lean with low timing. Iv run about 5 vipecs and link g4's now, very happy with everyone iv done. So many cool features for a race car too.

Those AFR's are brave at peak torque and even up top for bp98, or are you running meth injection too?
