I've got a 3-hour endurance race next weekend and basically, I was wondering if the EVO motor will take the punishment.....

I was thinking of dropping boost down to 15psi to look after the motor, and am trying to get hold of enough race-gas to run the whole event, but it looks like I'll have to run on pump 92 (Mexico's best pump fuel).

As I'm sure the question will be raised; yes I drive hard and was a pro-racer for many years, and by pro-racer I mean I was payed to race (feel like an idiot saying it, but I know that someone will ask about the nut behind the wheel).

I honestly don't think it'll want to take more than 1hr at full throttle (it's a fast track) and I'm worried that by weeks-end I'll be forced to order a BR stroker

Anyone gone through a similar experience??

BTW, most of my mod's are in my signature. I'm on a stock short-block.

Thanks guy's and please speak up, I'm kinda concerned

**EDIT** for some reason I can't see my mod list in my sig, I'll post it up now..

 

HKS GT3037S, wastegate dump, HKS Kansai IM, 1000cc injectors, Cosworth head/cams/fasteners, ARC intercooler, 3" downpipe to 3" e-cutout, 4" intake, AEM EMS, Perrin fuel rail, 3/8" SS fuel lines and Walbro, Turbosmart EBC, AEM wideband, SARD FPR, Tanabe swaybars, RSR Ti, full-bushing set, custom rear alignment kit, Whiteline roll-centre kit, 3.5°F/2.5°R neg camber, 20mm F/6mm R wheel spacers w/ARP studs, DBA 5000, Hawk pads, flat aluminium undertray, APR carbon venturi

...and that's basically it.

 

I think it all boils down to, no pun intended, how well the engine can shed off heat.

 

That's what I was thinking, and was considering, amongst other things, richening my AFR's a little to help out.

Anyone else?

 

interesting. i would like to know just how well the engine can hold up as well.

 

Indeed. If you do this, definitely post on Monday and let us know how it held up!

 

Just detune the **** out of it, and maybe drop the boost down a tad.

I would also run a little bit thicker oil if your still using 30 wt.

 

lol dont look at me this isn't something im gonna try out
