it is all about mathematics people...
i know a few things about engines , but all the work is done by my friend ( chriss that is a mechanik )...
it is easy to calculate.. the 318is engine is 140 hp in atmosphere pressure , so if i put 1 bar extra pressure , theoreticly will go 140 + 140 = 280 , because it is 1 bar from the atmosphere and 1 bar from my buddy garrett... so if you play with the head , exhaust and pistons , rings , crank , ignition and other goodies in the engine , will go to 300+ , and then you can hunt down E36 M3 for fun...
i am going to this setup... ( we - me and my friend ) are going to start working the car with 0,5 bar , because the car has 170.000 km , to see how it goes with , and then , if everything ok , will go for 1 bar or 1,2 bar of pressure...
the setup is taking a long time , because we are fabricating all things by ourselfs , that is we are making all thing hapend without paying anybody to do it... my friend is working now for a month in the exhaust manifold ( it is taking time because he is calculating the angles and everything to have 100% efficiency ) , and i have just connected the smt7 , and waiting for him to finish the manifold to go on..( i need to know where exactly the turbo is going to be to fabricate the intercooler arms and the hood ) i have all parts needed , that is 440cc injectors to replace the stock , intecooler ( the setup will be v-mount , with a slight change in the hood ) , top mount garrett 28/60 turbo with internal wastegate , oil cooler , smt7 - boost controler ,gm map sensor 3 bar , smt7 ignition controler , smt7 injection controler , smt7 shift light ,generaly all the goodies that smt7 has. im i fogeting something ?
The car is going to be altered externaly to go along with the turbo setup , i have just finished the rear diffuser , i have done the front , and as i said i am waiting to get the hood done.
i am taking pictures as we go along , and will be posted when finished ...
