Chris, you mentioned raising the rev limiter to 7500rpm. When doing an engine build, how do you determine what is a safe rpm number for redline? What factors play into this determination? I know a number of tuners raise the rev limiter on stock cars when you buy their flash. Is that safe?

1 rod angle. 2 rods and rod bolts 3 weight of valve train. I run 8000 rpm redline but shift as soon as my torque peak is ideal for the next gear

Thanks for the compliment on the head work, I'm really happy with the guys work as well. Yes, I changed to single groove keepers.

Happy Wednesday gentlemen!
You are so right with the basic thing.

What about going from a dual mass flywheel to a LWFW, does that allow for safe higher rpm limits?

Makes no difference. It is piston speed. the sharper the rod angle the fast the piston accelerates in the bore. At a given speed the piston material will hit its pasty temp and stick to the sleeve. That right there is game end. No oil can save you.

Sorry, I'm not clear on what you mean. What is "pasty" temp? Also, if it depends on piston speed, wouldn't a LWFW allow for quicker piston speed?

P2P i have a similar set up as you do,K24/18G'S Fabspeed 1' generation 200 cel cats,DV but i still am in AWD.My question is have you ever dyno your car ? .Here in El Salvador there is only one place to DYNO and is not veru thruthfull that's why i haven't done it.

Your WHP would be similar to mine,not exactly because you have RWD and another variables.

Looks like fun Chris, did Bill do that headwork ?

P2P 05-16-2011 09:05 AM
Actually i'm running stock injectors and my car is running lean. 1bar on Pump gas and RWD 470 hp. BTW my exhaust is catless.

I run 1.1 bar also from protomotive by Markski but i use a mixture 50/50 of 94 pump and 104 race leaded gas that's around 99 octane.I also have 5.0 FPR,stock injectors.

Thanks for your info man.

1.1 bar u may run out of ur injectors duty cycle and the motor will lean I think.
Watch out

I understand that the 5 FPR does it.I hope they are right.
