Just wondering… were you running this setup for a year without tuning it and you had no problems?
Also, did you “rebuild” the engine in any way? (port and polish? new gaskets? bearings? oil pump? water pump?) How many clicks on the before going turbo?
Those are some good numbers. I am going to do a KA-T project myself this summer if I have the money. Are those RX7 injectors direct fit or did you get an aftermarket fuel rail?
ha i wish, the motor has been tuned, or retuned over the last year. so yes the engine has been tuned from day one, im one of the original people running bikirom so i was constantly testing new updates and retuning cause of it.
the motor is completely stock i did nothing to it and it has low 100,000 on it.
the key to making a motor last is the tune and the tools you use to tune it.
sasha, its been tested by several people that these motors can reliably handle 350whp properly tuned. come guys have had them up to 500whp for numbers sake. but yes no rod will last if you have uncontrolled cylinder pressures.
so tuning is pretty much key here and im still going to super fine tune the timing map with a hks knock detector. but im just being super picky now.
