Overly high figures, some of the highest seen around here even compared to T2's on 11mm pumps, on an engine that you struggled to get running for pages on this very thread? You say you've been tuning XUD's for years but your basic mechanical knowledge has appeared lacking.
It's gone from "aw f*ck I don't know what i'm doing" to "look at my amazing magical T2".
If you want to live in dreamland and not accept that the figures seem remarkably high, fine, your prerogative. Noone here's told you it isn't what you're claiming, but doubts have understandably been raised because they seem high.
Again, a bit unfair.
11mm is regardless. 9mm are more than capable of fueling a t2. Any more and you're lagging/EGT issues.
Secondly, saying I lack basic mechanical knowledge? I had issues timing my first cambelt? Hardly a basic job.. To add, I've done this entire engine change pretty much on my own, with a little help here and there. And not to mention how annoying it is hearing you taking "aw f*ck" to "look at this power". It's been a f*cking long journey and wanted to give up many of times, it's now performing and there's people saying things like this? Seriously?
But no, it's a high figure for the setup. I've never said that this is a benchmark/standard figure. But, it's a low mileage engine and turbo.
Oh and FFS, take a 1.5nad turbo makes 133bhp, a 1.9 makes 20bhp more and hell brakes loose
Diablo Hdi Dturbo and 205 1.9 project - it lives!
