Inliners International Forums General Discussion Blown and Injected Turbo-6 new setup

Harry-
If you didn't change your pinion angle, that could give you a vibration.

Harry,

Are you running meth injection to keep detonation under control?

I got a warning from a TAD engine builder to watch out - once meth starts to knock it needs lots of timing pulled out to stop it.
its like close to 30* retard to get it to stop.

They busted a lot of parts learning this.

I use a J&S safegaurd unit to control the timing.

I use methanol injection & the timing removed when it hears detonation, it is not that much, maybe 6 degrees removed , then once it stops it brings the timing right back up.
Never seen it close to 30 degrees of retard to have to stop the detonation.

When I turn up the boost I will sometimes set the J&S so that it will remove timing from all cylinders (safer mode) instead of individually removing timing.

The J&S set-up has saved my cast piston engine more than a few times. 25-26 PSi on crap 91 octane fuel.

Will, now you tell me, just kidding.

I lowered the front of the engine to get hood clearance and did not think about the angle. It's back as it was at the start.

I run Q16 gas and have an intercooler, have not had any problems with my tune up.

EGT'S all the same and O2's good. The intake and exhaust my son made works great. the boost pressure is less than turbine and spools great.

So the turbine pressure is more than 30 PSI?
Or is it the other way around?
How much turbine back pressure does it have 20 PSI?

MBHD

Sorry I said that backwards. At 30 psi boost the turbine is 25 psi. Which is the way it should be to be correct.

It bolt's onto the wheel similar to bolting it onto the axle.
It keeps both sides of the rim tight as well so that spacer doesn't flop around in the center.
now you can put into a wheel balance machine and get an accurate balance.

I see good idea, I now run Halibrands it's a solid wheel.

I agree with your usage of a large hot side AR - the VE is improved.

What are you going to do if you split another block?

Don't talk about that, guess I will crash the car again, I think my fix will work or else try Mighty 6's extra head bolts.
