Hi Rasta, I did send him a few private mails a couple of months ago and he did get back to me, however there was a bit of a delay. I guess he is very busy with the rail project in SA. Might be worth trying him again.
cheers

Hey....
Saw this on youtube....
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ldjMxGDu6hA&NR=1
260bhp and 330nm on 1,25bar
But a swedish guy called Joacim have one 924 turbo with 374bhp with 1,6bar...

Agree
With the wastegate wide open it still got over 180hp 6000-7500rpm, and if you divide the hp with absolute boost you get over 140hp as NA.
To get high hp numbers you have to start with a good NA tune!
(But in this particular case was the valves too large and the duration too long if you ask me) _________________ Carl Fredrik Torkildsen

Would you say the valves were large and the duration large to compensate for poor head flow? The better way being to have good ports and headwork (better valves/chambers) and closer to stock size valve and cam?
Do we know what rods were used in that engine? With the faster acceleration of a short rod, the intake charge would be helped by that vacuum therefore helping the NA numbers. I am just curious to what was actually done to achieve that power level. _________________ 1980 931 since 1989

Yes, I am guessing that is the only way to get some flow out of the head. But 44,5mm intake valves are too close to the cylinderwall and shroudding is a serious problem (a larger bore or off-center bore will help). The 280 cam would work better with a longer tuned tubular manifold, reversion could be of concern - especially with large 38,5mm exhaust valves. Wold be interesting to know the flowbalance. The head was milled 10 degrees, the intake was raised and ported as much as possible by a legend in Sweden - "Grottis". JE pistons and Verdi rods but I donīt know the stroke/rod ratio. I think there are some benefits with a shorter rod as long as you are aware of the downsides as balance, vibrations, stress and wear.
I would take a good look on the 933 engine to make high NA hp, then turboconvert it. _________________ Carl Fredrik Torkildsen

http://www.pixbox.se/usr_show_id2474_page0_order1.html Here's the link to Joacim's monster 931's photo album. it includes a dyno sheet. and it's really impressive. anyone know what turbo he's using? _________________ proud owner of a 1979 924 Sebring Edition with a 931 trans that looks horrible but somehow runs... |

I think Joakim is using a Garrett GT30( or maybe as large as 35) _________________ Carl Fredrik Torkildsen

I agree reversion has to be a big factor with the log manifold. Would have liked to know what the manifold pressure is with that turbo and head work and compare to stock. I also would like to know the EGT at each cylinder at full HP on the Dyno. A lot of interesting information and as you pointed out, more questions. Either way the entire project is impressive to say the very least. It proves whats possible even with a log manifold. Also, the honorable mention to the welder of the iron manifold. I have welded an iron manifold before but only to close up some holes and port a bit and that wasn't a turbo manifold either. That the welding holds up is a testament to a good welder. Some people just do to try and it worked. _________________ 1980 931 since 1989

The measured (average) static backpreassure with the standard log manifold was close and even lower than boost preassure thanks to a large turbine and turbinehousing. That has been confirmed by other 931 builders. But I am more concerned about the returning exhaust pulse with the short runners causing reversion, that canīt be measured - look for other evidence like black soot in the intake manifold.
The EGT was 900-920 on Joakims engine (850-900 with open WG) and Racing got some 800 at 1,8bar of boost. _________________ Carl Fredrik Torkildsen

Wow, I would not have thought that about the manifold pressure. I figured at least some positive over the intake but a smaller difference. Again interesting.
Thanks for the information. Tons of food for thought! _________________ 1980 931 since 1989

My 924 makes 190 KW(+/- 330 HP) on the rear wheels. It has a T28 turbo boosting 0.9 bar. The head is gasflowed with a std cam. It has a large cooler infront of the radiator. I have turned the boost up to 1.5Bar but it starts leaking on the exhaust manifold if I drive it for too long with that boost.
You can have a look here to see what else I have done to it. |

The T28 works great I have very little lag and with my custom anti-lag system it drives like a large capacity N/A car(except for the blowing and popping noises). It also has a mechanical overboost function that works wonderful when accelerating.
The engine is balanced, with shotpeened rods and coated std pistons the comp ratio is 8.5:1 gasflowed head with a std cam and vernier pulley.
The inlet is custom built with 4 Weber throttles with 8 injectors. Aluminium plenum with blow-off valve
It has a large intercooler with water sprayers. I use the std wastegate and exhaust manifold with custom exhaust system.
It also has a 175Hp dry nitrous system but I have only used one bottle in the year I have driven the car.
The sump also has custom windage tray, baffles and breather system. |
