6a12 limits

[d_dan]

I cant believe you moved away i thought the agreement was that we were gonna race

[Taz]

hehe thats too bad dan, now i think i will have to take his charger down with my 4g setup?

[d_dan]

Super turbo FTW.

HKS T62R on a Tomei genesis 4G2.24LB
One of these days

[d_dan]

To be honest its your car so its up to you. A turbo 6A12 will save you ftom overspending though as itll come to a limit.

[Taz]

nah dont want a turbo 6a12 or a 6a13tt, that ive established!
charger or 4g, one or the other

[d_dan]

Well 6A12 regardless it will put a cap on how much your gonna spend.

[Taz]

This is true.

HKSFTO is tuned to run up to 10psi at the moment. That is plenty for me. It's over 175kw at the wheels (in a tip) and is enough to put a smile on my face and take the smile off your average riceline/wrx racer.

I've driven an FTO with a 4g63 conversion and to be honest, it scared the crap out of me. It was ridiculously quick and will loose you your licence before you can say "I live my life a quarter of a mile at a time."

Thats EXACTLY what i want. if it doesnt scare the s**t outta me i dont want it

10ps at 175kw in a tip - is this on stock internals? And obviously this is a turbo setup - im sure 10ps on a supercharger would be a lot different but still - very nice figures!

[AJ]

Yeah, as far as I can tell, it's stock internals. I've done a few other bits like FPR and larger fuel pump but nothing else.

If you want it to scare you, then go 4g for sure!

[Taz]

Guess it's settled then

[AJ]

Done

[silverGPX]

Too bad itll be a 4cyl and sound like arse compared to v6 mivec supercharged. Which is a lot easier, and your not losing power to begin with.

AJ is that on standard compression too as far as you can tell?

Hehe dont worry mate, its going to sound epic, ive had the privelage of hearing another one thats been done
And as for power loss...this is going to be about 500+ gain so yea.. we will see

[silverGPX]

Yes, we will see.

He didn't get it open up so can't really tell if it has dished pistons or thicker head gasket.
But i bet it's still on stock CR hence the pretty amazing result of 175kws.
As long as it's tuned properly stock CR should do it fine.

You know that thing whines like a bitch starting from 1 rpm right?
Might get excited hearing it whines loud ass for the 1st few times.
Bet you'll crank your audio up when you're fed up with it whining every single time you drive it especially if it's your daily.

You can't even hear your mivec or exhaust tone or induction noise.
All you hear is whirrllllllll~~~~~~~~!!

[phunkydude]

Yes, we will see.

You'll most probably see him selling off his fto rather than any 4g project on it.

[Taz]

Aww come on phunky, no faith - and even if for some reason i dont do a 4g on it - i still wouldnt sell it i would just keep it as is.
