sweet! thanks for posting the video Luke/Aaron (and the rest of the ER crew!). Almost makes it look like i'm sponsored, lol. thanks for all the help the past year. more big things coming from you guys, i'm sure. thanks for supporting the EVO community!

 

very nice to see this car is still around and getting changes i was up at english awhile back and seen it there aaron told me they were going for more power great to see it hit the 700 mark congrats tony...

 

thanks brandon! i see you still lurk around here...how is the family?

do you have a new project car?

 

yeah i still hang around on here looking at what english has been been up to...family is doing good..i have a toyota pick up i have been building and bought a house shortly after i sold you the evo...congrats again on the power now...do you think it was worth the swap to the new turbo i seeen aaron said the the load control effects the way it spools so does this turbo really spool that much faster on the street and aaron do you think the wastgate dump has anything to do with it spooling faster

 

daaaaaang sick numbers on the old school compression!! awesome numbers guys congrats!

 

Aaron do you allways tune the timing in the midrange like this? How far from mbt was it?

 

I presume you mean the slightly negative timing? Yes and No. In this case I do it for traction control more than anything but it also keeps the cylinder pressure down during and extended 4th gear pull.

Since this wasnt one of our motors, we knew it had Eagles in it and thats about it, I wasnt pushing it as hard as we can when we know exactly what we have going on inside the motor. I can run 2-3* at the same range where it was -3*. MBT is deceiving down low though and while it might be a discussion for another thread I dont believe MBT works vs RPM. It is what it is and in the case of almost all 4G63s its 18*.

Aaron

 

you're in good hands when it's in aaron's hands. I wouldn't trust anyone else to tune a car.

 

 

aaron, what would the curve look like if the midrange was tuned with the 2-3 degrees like you mentioned? i know running more timing usually means more power, so does that mean torque would come on sooner?

 

Yeah but your car already makes 482 ft lbs right there as its coming online. Between traction and bearing life its not worth it. Its really after the turbo is already lit, this wouldnt make a difference on spool.

Aaron

 

has spectacular early torque!!
This is with single scroll FP HTA GT3586R T3 0.82AR ?
inside diameter of the turbo manifold runners? around 1,5"?

 

this is why i want to upgrade turbos...nice combo

cant wait for my 2.4 from ER to be ready

 

Quick question for you Aaron. Since you do alot of 2.4s. In your opinion how's the throttle response getting on it and between shifts compared to your more normal 10.1- 10.5 compression motors. Just curious to get your opinion on it

 

Well the all motor power feels better so before the turbo actually starts doing work the throttle response is better with higher compression (i.e 10.5:1 vs 9:1) but between shifts I cant say I have noticed a difference.
