yeah, first was poor tune, 2nd was rubbish piston pins and 3rd was cheap rods (too much power) and the cost of getting a replacement 2L short block vs a 2.4 was a no brainer to go 2.4, it makes the power so much easier and is so much nicer to drive off boost

I am having a lot of issues with overheating on track, on the street there is no issues at all however on track temps rise very quickly, not finding much on the net at all regarding evo track cars with the 2.4 block so chipping away hoping to solve it bit by bit....
it has the outlander water pump and the vane layout looks identical to the evo one

I'm probably telling you something you already know, but they make an adapter plate to run the Evo pump on the 2.4 block. A lot of guys were having overheating issues with the Eclipse or Galant water pumps not moving enough water which is why a few guys came up with the adapter plates. They're only like $20 or so so not a big deal. I'm not sure on the Outlander pump, but I know the Evo pump is superior to the Eclipse and Galant pumps at least. Something to look in too.

thanx mate, I do have that plate, as the outlander pump looked identical to the evo one i thought it would be the better option as with the plate needs a bit of clearancing to fit but if it continues after the changes I am making now I think I will use the evo pump

a mishimoto rad was purchased and fitted
temps on the street are now much more stable and the system remains pressurised while driving, proof will be in the next track outing tho I guess,
HANKOOK Z221 C70 should improve lap times, I am expecting to be in the 55s at my local track next time out all things going well
also had a rocker arm fail, I noticed oil pressure was lower than normal, dropped the oil to find:
E8 ones installed
oil pressure now back to normal

long time no post, been busy since last time
best lap with the hankooks
56.3 on the sprint
anyway very next lap #4 injector failed
resulting in:
so yet another rebuild, it is essentially the same but I put in L19 1/2 inch studs and a modified OEM 9 gasket on a O-ringed block and fitted a FLUIDMPR
running BLACK OPS DELPHI 1400cc now
running a MOROSO accumulator as I was having a bit of surge
idle is much more pronounced this time round
next outing is late Nov for last one this year hoping to dip into the 55s
