Inliners International Forums General Discussion Blown and Injected turbo 292 write up

hank, i started hooking up the knock kit. its not done yet. so the timing is as ihave it set as above. there is no timing drop @4200 rpm. upon looking over the motor close, i found 2 potential exhaust leaks. one manifold bolt had backed out and more importatly 1 turbo flange bolt was 1.5 turns loose. both are tight now.
can't test tonight and it also rained.

one other theory is maybe my intake air temp is causing problems. before the run it starts @ 100- 105 degrees, thru the run it rises to 115-120 at the end. maybe i am seeing detonation? i am going to pull out some timing at the top end of rpm scale and also try it.

maybe it's time to get one of those methanol injection kits.

i also wish i was not the only one working out all these bugs. i do like the challenge.
