will this set up run a 20g set up safely?

4GTuner

Help Support 4GTuner:

ok what about opinions from people running simular set ups?
Is the fuel issue toitally ridiculous? Or acheivable?
 
Look, if i need to be shot down in flames do so.
Im asking for all you opinions and experiances.

ok maybe safc'c not the way to go as i need understand what you actually do to the combustion process when you change the afr's and ignition using a safc, rather than just look at simply ltuning the ratios
 
if your going to the trouble of SAFC and chipped ECU.. Go buy a DSM Link :) Lots of reading, research and talking to the creators. This looks like a good thing and will give you more tunability than an SAFC.. They sell for USD$545 + shipping. You just tell them your setup injectors, afm, etc etc. They will set the chip up for you and send it all.

Think of it as a S-AFC but pumped full of steroids. ;)

they will have a V2 ESMLink in the next couple of months. But that will sell for around USD$645. But with more features.

Personally I would not put the 510's in.
I would go larger with a 20g because once you get used to 18psi you WILL want more :)


Agreed. 560's for a start, then maybe an adj FPR if you need even more.

Maybe i should stick with power at the wheels not crank. :)

From what ever read a 16g on 20psi will give around 170kw at all 4's without cams, alot closer to 200kw with cams and cam gears.

Is there a point using a 20g in hope ill get closer to200kw at all 4 with less supporting mods. or no point as ill need cams to unlock the potential of the 20g and its a waste of time as ill just end up with a bit more lag.
 
That sounds about right- with the right tuning- I cant see why you cant make 220-230kw atw on 20+ psi

That dyno graph above was done on a FWD with a 16g by the way- expect some power loss through your drivetrain
 
I have 205kw at all 4 on 20psi on a stock motor and big16g ..... no cams or gears (yet :twisted: )

and that was on a dyno that is notoriously under-reading up to 20kw too.
 
I don't think I saw it in your list, but you will need a larger fuel pump. I don't know at what power the standard fuel lines also become an issue.
 
Sorry to hi-jack the thread, but anyone else used this DSM link? Sounds interesting and would like to get into it for a bit of learning.

IM after advice if my standard motor will hold up to a 20G on 18-20psi.

want to keep my motor stock internally and not damage it.
Will my chip and possibly a safc and the rest of the set up run it safely.

At the moment she's pretty stock;
- 3" tbe
- adjustable bov

I have sitting in my room ready to go in;
-evo3 510 injectors
-055 afm
-single board ecu with a chip tuned for the above

I can see myself needing;
-new intercooler piping
-data loggin set up
-evo (or copy) exhaust manifold
- boost contro
-maybe a safc to get my mixtures better.
-intake set up
-battery in the boot
-new clutch

Dont really want to go cams (yet) as want it not to chew too much fuel when lazily putting around. or is this a stupid concept lol

I want as close to 400hp AT THE CRANK as i can safely get using this set up and not damage my motor, running 18-20psi. I do understand that the 20g will spool later, just seems alot of people are upgrading from 16g's.
and im inder the understanding that a 20g will offer more flow at these boost levels than a 16G.
These are my resons for optimg for a 20g over a 16g.
Opinions?

I pretty much had the same setup as this and using 550cc rx7 injectors which were flow tested at 580 i made 400@crank on 20psi using safc,fuel economy was no worse off than the standard setup when off boost but yeh goes higher when boosting,my set up with a 20g boosted at the same rpm so dont worry about it boosting later as long as it has a decent tune the drivability will be good

on bigger injectors i made 450@crank still using 20g and standard internals so as said earlier as long as you have a good healthy engine and has a good tune your engine will take it
 
ok heres a new angle.
Based on what id think id need and what i costs, tryed not to under price anything to be safe.
Could be intersting for hp gains compared to dallars spent.
3 (4) setups, optimise what i got, go the 16g and keep std cooler pipes, go the 20g.

#1: :) So far for 510's, 055 afm, chipped computer.
spent
$520

....continue with first round modds
Battery relocated to boot,
air box and intake,
manual boost controller,
new friction plate in existing clutch
data logg setup
$900 on top of $520 spent

$1420



#2: :D Get a 16g.
keep current cooler piping(j-spec) and cooler
16g turbo
possibly need to replace exhaust manifold with evo one,
manual boost conroller,
Fuel Pressure regulator
dump pipe
$1000 on top of stage one modds.
so 1000 + 1420 =

$ 2420



#3B cheap ass 16g option
modify standard air box to take the 055 afm or use magna air box
16G turbo
dump pipe
maual boost control
=$850 on top of stage one modds
850+1420

=$2270




#3 Go the 20g :twisted:
20g turbo
Intercooler piping and resize piping on end tanks of J-psec i-cooler
Upgrade manifold to evo one or copy
Electronic boost control
Fuel pressure regulator
keep the 510 injectors, max 18 pound boost
clutch friction plate, possibly whole new set up
$2350 + stage 1 ($1320)


=$3670

possibly more for whole new clutch setup rather than rebuild


On top of the 20g set up, for boost over 18psi
560 injectors
DSM link

Absolutely achievable. Here's the dyno chart of my last Galant with a chipped ECU:


n707627270_570806_1521.jpg




the only reason why it didnt make more power after 5250rpm, was because the chip was far too rich. If you had a similar chip, and then could lean it out abit up high- you would see a far more linear curve: more power, for longer.

That was at the front wheels right? If that's the case, it's a little misleading...

It sounds like you have done your homework. Really, the money we are talking about here is 'rats and mice'. I don't beleive the lag difference between the 16g and the 20g is worth worrying about. It's really academic.

I would say that you would be limited to ~ 350hp with the above quoted mods. Mate, I have done everything twice, if not three times in search of the power to fulfill my addiction for speed and because I was too conservative the first and second time round, I got used to the power...rapidly. I beleive that, in this case, bigger the better...it leaves you with a greater scope for future development and you won't be left limp wristed...like I was... :)
 
you haven't mentioned anywhere a fuel pump - $110-150

also what condition is the motor in, have you done a compression test and the like to see how it is internally, last thing you want is to put a bigger turbo on turn up the boost and blow something up...
