Hi
When I had it dynoed the wastegate was not shutting properly and the injectors maxed out and it ony made 128 hp, I was very disappointed with this. I have not yet changed the injectors but i have tidied up other things, fixed the wastegate and made the exhaust less restrictive. I have some Mercedes injectors to be fitted but Im concentrating on other things at the moment so I hope to get things more sorted early next year. I have had a few encounters with WRXs and R33 Skylines and I clearly came out the winner so it must be making more than 128 now.
The motor has been in the car since 1988 but only ran IDAs & 10.5 comp until 2001. The motor has done about 100,000 ks and has only used 2 water pumps and the odd coolant hose in that time, I use VW coolant with distilled water and I dont have any corrosion problems. The oil temp stays around 100 c and water temp around 95 c in very hot weather that we have in Sydney, sometimes over 40 c in summer.
