19t

[nathT5]

Lol yeah the pair of them, East side Vs West side....funny as hell....when the silver one (Charisma styled I believe) hits like 32 and Ali ****s himself lol

watch out for the 5-0

[Enigma666]

Somebody watched it far too often then? lol

I do like the bit giving the cops the V's from behind the door card though lol

[cookie]

I've run a 19T for best part of 3 years in 3 different T5s without any internal engine issues (rods that is). The spool up is later but carries for a longer time.

I am just praying you cant afford it.

I don't think your the only one.

[850twr]

just to add, did you have your foot down all the way? i could be wrong and would be happy to be corrected but i counted between 10 and 11 seconds 60-100mph. A standard EP3 civic type R will do it in 10 going from EVO magazine stats.

you also mentioned beating evos. which ones? A standard evo 7 with a quoted 276bhp which is heavier then the earlier ones will do 60-100 in 8 seconds, again according to evo mags stats.

no i dont have any racing video's, that particular vid was a while ago, and only running the stock 9psi of boost, it was a national limit road at around 2am which lead into a 30, hence the heavy braking, and was recorded by my mate. the evo was either a 7 or a 8, but i'm not sure, and after i had my mbc fitted.(which made a hell of a difference) there wasn't much init but enough for me to have to lift after a few gears. evo's and scoobys are no match for a tweaked t5 once you've got grip, there onwards 4wd just slows you down. not to mention the extra power loss through the drivetrain., so a 276hp t5 would see more power at the wheels than a 276bhp evo, thats just fact. altho i'm in no way saying i'd have either in a tuned state. this is the vid with the current state of tune.. altho no 60-100 time, probably for the best with you lot. 0-60 in a solid 6 seconds tho,

and let me get this right, first i get slated for going too fast, and now i'm getting knocked that its not quick enough, i do know what i've had to back off for. seems its not just non-t5 owners that under rate these engines, and there immense torque.

19t is very tempting, and yes not that its your business i can afford it even if i had to fork out on rods aswell. altho right now my priority is getting my fsd's fitted. should help the 150mph cornering :p

[irf]

no i dont have any racing video's,

what about the one with the civic type R and the skyline? you've got "vs" in the title which would suggest a race. neither the type R or the skyline were trying.

i could be wrong but i would guess that they weren't racing. maybe taken off a bit quick, got into top gear and you've gone hell for leather. obviously i cant really say, i weren't there.

why not get a recent 60-100 as that is more indicative of the sort of power you're at. 0-60 doesn't really mean much.

and let me get this right, first i get slated for going too fast, and now i'm getting knocked that its not quick enough

don't really care one way or the other mate. recently got more idiots here then even i can handle so i tend to avoid this forum now sadly.

[850twr]

you can clearly see that was not a race with the skyline, just a couple of throttle squirts, again i was at stock boost (9psi - 14psi, i'm quite sure your aware of the difference this makes)
i know the bloke and have given him quite a few more goes since i'v had the mbc fitted, and after a few gears i do have to lift, he's complimented me on my car and his is stock atm (250 flywheel hp) the same goes for the type-r of which roars around here constantly, and he definitely was trying as i've had nothing other than pissed off glares from him since. i mean come on, a new over weighted honda with a 2.0na, vtech or not, they create nothing below 6k.gutless.

i don't get what your issues are mate, but you've obviously got some, you own one of these cars, you should know their potential to leave most things behind (not much on the road has 400nm from 2500rpm).
you also need to bare in mind iv got a full 3" twr system which made a silly difference 5k and above, which no one else on here has (unless its been customed) i dont have climate control, cruise control, electric seats, rear electric windows and its a saloon, so the weight advantage to your loaded family wagon is going to be noticeable to say the least.

I've just been slated for my high speed antics, so why the hell should i go and make a 100mph video just to prove to you that my car can do what i know it can.

THIS PLACE IS MAKING NO SENSE!!!!!!


i've been on this site for quite a few months and found it REALLY helpfull and i thank those of you involved for that, untill i made it clear that i actually use my T5 in a way that its capable, and other than a select few people, have had nothing but conflicting contradictory ££££££ since!

dear o dear...... that full system still only a cat back?

100kg tops?

[irf]

LOL thank you, i'll at least be going to work with a smile on my face knowing there's another person here without a bloody clue

[p fandango]

i certainly wouldn't recommend simply bolting on a 19T, running a standard map the standard injectors are at 99.7% at WOT which aint a good idea. Also the 19t actuator is set to 0.7bar instead of the normal 0.3bar so the standard ECU won't control the boost correctly, you can do like me & bypass the BCS so running the 0.7bar actuator pressure but the ECU has no limp home then

if you've got a 15g as standard you'll also need a new angled downpipe, & while your changing the turbo you might aswell upgrade the exhaust manifold for a ME7 or S60R one (plus you'll need new studs, nuts, washers & gaskets which come to £80)

will it add more bhp........yes, with a 19t (running 0.7bar), standard T-5 map, S60R manifold, 3"open downpipe mine was dyno'd at 250bhp, i've got 145k miles on the clock so anything over 225bhp is a bonus

hey irf i never have a clue dude

[850twr]

yes the cats still on, altho most of it has broken down, 100kg's makes more difference than you may think, and ontop of that my cars covered less than half the milage than yours as far as im aware, so i'm guessing its seen better days.. i apologise for getting annoyed but i'm being pulled left and right by certain people on here.

[Wobbly Dave]

at what boost pressure???



as for racing upto 30,
has anyone seen the old Ali-G film with the pimped R5 turbos racing from the lights - to 30?

I've had some performance issues lately - which I am glad to say have been resolved. HLM had my car back for 4 weeks. There were many issues - MAF, Injectors, new wishbone and a new custom map - guess it goes along with the age and use of my car. I also found out the root cause of my ABS problem. Last time out on the track I managed to split the speed ring on the end of the short half shaft (due to heat expansion).

Anyway I have thrown a whole bunch of cash at it and she runs a solid 400Nm through most of the range. Pressure is running 1.2 Bar (and stays there in 3rd and 4th) and she carries the power very nicely through to 6000rpm. I'd say that she really charges in 3rd and 4th, when the full boost is available. It is difficult to say how quickly she would get to top speeds without a runway to test it on. BTW I run new blue injectors.

I am not sure I will do anymore track days now. She's getting on abit (112K miles). 65K miles on a tuned car - things do wear out more quickly.

I shall keep her going for as long as poss.

twr you are gonna be rinsed after your last post, cant say oooops pushed him to far, an then deny responsability. mate ive beaten 7 series's bmw in a fiat panda 1litre 2wd an i promise you they were trying, i know we all love our tanks, but its not what you drive but how you drive it. sounds like maybe a big brake kit would be a good move, as you seem to be one of thos round town clowns,

yeh i do get that, and maybe i did pressurise him down the straight a bit, but i backed off way early for the corner, and the rest was all him i'm afraid. But to be fair it does take 2, and the way he was driving through the earlier corners was ridiculous, way faster than i was willing to attempt in those conditions. anyway is old news now, and i hope to see him driving around again soon.

I will also accept the town clown comment, altho you should see some of the nutters round here, make me look tame in comparison, lol, as it is rare that i get out of town, and i think the big brake kit is a good bit of advice because it doesn't take too long for the stock's to overheat.

I think i've portrayed myself as a madman street racer, but that just isn't the case, i have my moments but thats it. I did karting from the age of 10, and my dad used to rally a mk2 escort back in the 80's so i'm not the usual talentless "boy racer" or atleast thats what i like to think ;D.

again apologies to all i've offended, and i'll keep my antics to myself in future.

Regards. Nick.

[Alan M]

This is an amusing thread.

[BruceT]

Stainsey,

The T-5R has an overboost facility which makes the car produce 240hp instead of 225hp for aprox 30 seconds. If does this by allowing 10.6psi of boost instead of the standard 9.6psi of boost.

15hp more for 1 psi (At the crank)

So one could take these volvo quote figures a step further and say 11.6psi would be 30hp more, 12.6psi would be 45hp etc etc ofcourse, these are crank figures, not WHP.

Ofcourse, this is theorectcal and I doubt it translates to 1PSI extra over stock = 15hp crank.

Plus, anything over 15PSI will cause fuel cut (Standard map) and the 15g will be blowing hot, restricted air.
