wickedep's EP82...

Post by wickedep » Sun Apr 21, 2013 3:07 pm

hey lads,
just thought i'd put up a few pics of my car...

quick background..its running a fully built 5e with a godzilla billet turbo and haltech engine management. unfortunately i have not been able to fully tune it yet because previously the ignition system upgrade i made was not sufficient..so it was blowing spark over 1.6bar boost. the car was mapped twice before..but both times it started to blow spark after 6000rpm..so couldnt really rev it up to it usual 8000rpm.

1st dyno run : 312whp@5950rpm
2nd dyno run : 320whp@5950rpm

power figures were made just as the car was getting into its power band...so i know there's much more power to be extracted...

1st dyno run...

Image

these runs were made in september 2011...managed to find the first graph..but have not idea where the second graph is as its been a while. since this time..the car hardly seen the road as its had something or another done to it...

in early 2012 the regrind cams i was using snapped in half destroying my built head..so i've had to switch back to a stock head with just a port/polish. it will remain this way till i can afford a new head from Zisco. i decided to rebuild the engine also at the same time..

Image

here's some pics of the car now...

new engine being built mid 2012..

Image

new port/polished head...with stock cams for now...

after a long wait...the new engine being run in on the dyno....early 2013...

Image
the problem with owning your own workshop is that you can never find time to work on your own car hehe...progress is very slow with the car right with us being very busy.

at the moment..the engine still needs to be finished running in...

new Denso LS2 individual coils installed... this should be the last time i will blow out spark..ever!

waiting on a new straight cut gear box to be delivered...here's a sneek peek..
