Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Adjustable cam pulleys

Think about the situation in the engine from another angle, it might make it easier, I recently had an engine which made 428Hp at 1.5 bar of boost, I then optimised the cam profiles by altering the duration and lift on one of the cams. This engine then produced 478Hp at the same boost pressure... Th...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Adjustable cam pulleys

Yes except that the efficiency at different rpms x pressure has changed if the camshafts and turbo are altered : at different points the Ve value which is used to predict airflow Will be incorrect....so the ecu will calculate the wrong amount of fuel.

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Adjustable cam pulleys

Please show me the VE table for the Rev 3 ECU oh dear, you cannot read the encrypted rev3 ecu and therfore it does not work how we all know it to work, so how does the ecu calculate how much fuel is required with no airflow meter and only a map sensor and intake air temp sensor? a. speed density ec...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Adjustable cam pulleys

thought you would know that about the speed density system it is pretty well understood/documented. it is using ideal gas law, which states the following relationship between gas (air) pressure, temperature and volume. pV = nRT Where: p = absolute pressure of the gas (air in this case) V = volume of...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Adjustable cam pulleys

NO Bob, re read my post and then understand the way in which a speed density system predicts airflow, clue =VE table

VE= Volumetric efficiency

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Adjustable cam pulleys

You are missing some info there bob The rev3 ecu is not measuring actual airflow , it is speed density. Incoming air mass is calculated based on temp, manifold pressure and engine speed(rpm) USING a reference Volumetric Efficiency table. The engine VE is a constantly moving value based on rpm, camsh...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Adjustable cam pulleys

The rev3 ecu as stated will cope just fine with what you want to do.

NA does not have injector resistor pack. follow the trouble shoot in BGB - checking resistance at each injector terminal etc..

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Information request - Rev 2 vs Rev 3 head - Real world advantage?

I have a beams head here also, not flow tested it yet but it has great port angle and port. The beams head is a much more expensive proposition given its rarity and fundamental differences tho.

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Information request - Rev 2 vs Rev 3 head - Real world advantage?

Yes ryan i remember as it was from my own testing. I believe jonnys twincharged celica is at around 800hp. Top power builds i can think of run a rev2 head. Like i have stated rev2 manifolds are the main problem on rev2 setup/optimisation. The rev2 intake port tapers down quite a bit bolton so overal...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Information request - Rev 2 vs Rev 3 head - Real world advantage?

Rev3 head is more side draught hence needing more wasted stem valves. this showed no advantage when i tested it in a rev2 head if i remember correctly. In fact the valves in the rev2 were better for the rev2.

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Information request - Rev 2 vs Rev 3 head - Real world advantage?

Actually intake port angle is worse on the rev3 than rev2. Rev2 head can be made to outflow the rev3 considerably.
Standard intake ports theres not much in it, better velocity in rev3.
Rev2 is let down by its manifolds.
