Turbonetics=FAIL. This is a known factor.

Get a percision turbo, or even a TO4E or something like that. Guys have nothing but problems with the Turbonetics turbos on 350z’s.

I run a T04E and have had good luck so far, but a Garrett is in the future (as well as 9psi ).:thumbup:

And as a side note, B.B. turbos really need a timer to cool down, bearings aren’t overly resilient to heat. Journal bearing turbos can take the heat better, but they don’t spool as quickly as B.B.

So while I wait for my new turbo to arrive. I took the time to paint my valve cover which I’ve wanted to do since I got that stupid thing. James and I also upgraded my fuel pump last night. I’m getting ready for 8-10psi of boost.

I wouldn’t go much beyond 8 without doing a methyl injection or something like that! I’m pretty sure that’s where I ran into my issues lol!

Who is saying i don’t want to run into these issues. It will give me an excuse to build the engine if I can blow it lol

haha well that works! I say fuck it then! Boost to 15 Psi! Then when it blows up build an engine to actually be able to handle that 15! 😛

I don’t get why people keep blowing up blocks… Just build it up, better than waiting for a new block to get shipped in…

I want to see at what point it fails. It will make a stronger block in the end. And why does it matter to you?

I guess in that case it makes sense, but I’ve had “friends” who used to over boost block for fun…

I wasn’t trying to be mean. I just want to try somethings out for fun so I can then not do them with a built block.

The QR25DE is not a high boost engine. Due to it’s large stroke it does not last long after 10psi. The internals were never built to be boosted.

Long stroke + paper thin cylinder walls + high boost = BOOM!!!

Aluminum melts really easy, lol.

Basically I think his objective is to benchmark, that way it is easier to build an engine when you know it’s weaknesses.
