BGTV8 VQ40HRGA Race engine build

Rusty · 02-25-2016, 12:21 AM

So, about 400hp at the rear wheels, if that.

How much you think you will have to open up the ports?

BGTV8 · 02-25-2016, 01:15 AM

Expecting 420-430 atw - anything above 420 I reckon will be a bonus.

With dry-weight under 1200kg (all fluids but without driver), I reckon I can be competitive with the 911 GT3 R or RS and some of the other GT3 machinery.

Heads with porting guy tomorrow, but the real issue will now be exhaust.

I have some RHD PPE long-tubes but need to look at the exhaust port once the porting guy has done his magic to see how it might fit together.

I have a a really good pipe guy so a custom set of headers won;t run more than $1200-$1400 (aussie$).

Things are happening quite quickly now.

Sub'd for awesome build and finished product!

Update 10 added - also added images of induction system fitted to Sasha Anis' race engine for base map creation.

I am well impressed with Sasha's work. Clearly all that time in the deep Canadian winter allows lots of planning time for really interesting "stuff" to happen.

My M150 ECU and CDL3 have also been ordered, delivery in a couple of weeks.

Bet that IS BGTV8's stuff being tested.

Elmo370z · 03-07-2016, 10:35 PM

Thats what im thinking

Elmo370z · 03-07-2016, 10:36 PM

I would take that set up over boost any day

Rusty · 03-07-2016, 10:37 PM

Run the IBT's with boost.

Elmo370z · 03-07-2016, 10:46 PM

Ahhh well i would do that

Elmo370z · 03-07-2016, 10:47 PM

There is an itb system in the works that will work with the vvel. Est cost is around $5,000, at least that is what i was told over the phone

You are 100% correct ....

Remember that Sasha's car (Kels) is only 3.7 litre and my engine is 92mm stroke and 96mm bore (full 4-litres) plus I am running more compression and E85 .... looks like my 420hp atw might be pessimistic .......
