the hogster flies
Turbo Mini Forums

ive now sorted out the over fueling with a new float needle valve from burlen. but still had a misfire which was masked buy the over fueling when on boost, swapped the coil over to my other one and she now flies on 8 psi but she still has a standard head running a 9.8 cr and boost comes in at 2000rpm, and will pull from 1500rpm in top on a 2.9 diff.

its like driving a automatic in some ways a heck of lot better than when the 1380 was N/A.

aand she realy pulls like a train when you hit 4000 rpm. just need a temp gauge for the intercooler now as well.

i think its a great advert for any one who wants a mega cheep turbo motor with out needing to buy a fully blown turbo head and just wants a bit more extra grunt.

my home made head is ready to go on with 30cc chambers ( just hopes she holds) i used a older flat bed 940 head as they have more meat in the waterways round chambers (suposdly)

so watch this space.

what pistons have you got in this? Is the 'cooler in yet?

8psi is a fair amount of boost for 9.8cr.

You retard the ignition enough and you can run even higher CR...

oh deviantly a intercooler, running a rs ruscort. with 25 deg fixed adv, with the det cans on we even ran 9psi through the det zone eg 3k to 3.5k with no det at all so may be we could run a higher cr than we think.

my pistons are 7cc power max with 14.5 cc total volume to the top of the block.

took head of last night to put new head on and every thing looked great, no blow buy across the gasket so that was ok which was a slight suprise.
