Thanks Ken
Nice pic :)
Still not sure i have done the right thing selling her, new one feels gutless at the moment .
testing the new intank pump showed it was not up to the task, in tank filter must choke it a fair bit even though it seems to flow through fine , could only flow 1000cc/min at 65 psi which is about 1000cc short of my needs,.... does 1600cc at 43 psi (roughly 300 hp)
if anyone wants a hi flow bosch in tank pump to fit in std suzuki position , call me .
Could you run two pumps in there back to back ? If theres room? I did that in an old carb celica tank to get them hidden in tank with then T'ed inside the tank .
Pump sits in a neat fitting well in the bottom of the tank, i'll just put an external pump on it, worked fine for the last 10 turbo's i have done was just looking for a std looking under the tank option, but i'm not about to compromise hp for neat ;)
could put an 040 bosch in the tank but with all the stuffing around mounting and plumbing its just simpler to do it external
haha you've seen betty , I care little for pritty lol
Normally i'm more for function over form too but i gotta admit seeing realy nice jobs done on such a variety of bikes here has inspired me to try a bit harder this time
heat exchanger is mounted

Had to bend it a bit more to fit in tighter , bit nervous when i put it in the press but it bent ok between a couple of blocks of pine 4x4 and a 4" pipe
Oh shit ... how long where you looking at the press with it ready to go before you give it a push?
Have you done the plenum yet... You need a piece of pipe to role it around ....
about 2 secs :D, if i stopped long enough to think about consequences i would miss out on too much fun [:p]
Keep getting work interfering with play, i want to do the plenum when i have time to make a proper roller, maybe on the weekend, lots of other stuff to do , i'm making 3 of everything 1 for me and 2 for mates .
Tomorrow i want to get the fuel system up and running including the wiring for the intercooler pump it will be on the original fuel pump wiring and also triggering a relay for the new fuel pump circuit
Yeah that work shit can be a real pain in the ass when the fun is really happening lol
Been getting a bit more done
Up pipe cut into the ram air tube,

Fuel pump , reg and general lay out

Fitting the cyls on the freshly coated pistons, 2mm decompression plate in gold
http://www.asfphotos.com/upload/1280245891.jpg
Titanium valves and light springs removed, they don't like heat much , replaced with std 99-07 valves and APE 65LB springs

Decompression plate lifting the head 2mm rolls the cams forward, so a spline tooth is cut from gear and the gear repositioned on the master spline on the crank to put the timing as std,
real handy that the gear has 18 teeth and 17 splines , works out that for each spline the gear is rotated its a ~.5deg advance or retard depending on direction, 5 teeth do nicely

any thing wrong with ur cell phone Booster? meaning the dates? [:p]
"2mm decompression plate in gold"
Did you win the lotto Greg?
Why gold?
What fuel fliter are you using.. 10µm .. 40µm?
Na Its just ballast Ivan haha, looking good greg.
Bloody camera, looses its memory when the battries are out, i'll get the right ones one day and be able to charge it "in camera"
Only coppercoat Ivan, Aluminium spacer
Not actually sure in the filter , enough to keep the big bits out of the pump , at least there the stainless screen type and not the sintered bronze, have a pet hate of them.
Hey Greg why have you opted for decompression plate, seems a helluva lot of fuck around with the timing chain thingamy!
Machine pistons, alternate?
Pistons are thin enough already,even aftermarket turbo pistons use a decomp plate as you can't get a good dish in the piston and proper quench or piston to head clearance between the piston pin and head without lifting the cyls and head up ..
The timing sprocket only takes a few min s to do and its easy to get out out anyway with the cyls off , pre 05 there was no master spline and you could just rotate the sprocket ...
Guys in the US fit adjustable sprockets and set the timing at ~105 deg but i figure the std timing at 102-105 is not too bad and if i can put it back to that i'm happy , my racebike gets more like 110 deg to move the torque curve higher and give it a few more rpm before it noses over but i would rather more bottom end torque esp as i will loose about 20hp with the decompression, (but put back 50 with more boost)
greg,
what injectors are you using mate. I have an 044,rising rate reg...big fuel rail blah..... base spacer... should we run sloted gears?
cheers
Pete
Pete its a whole new ball game with the 08+
2 x 280cc injectors/cyl std, with the ecu editor stuff now i can program the std ecu to do boost based mapping,vary the ign dwell for more spark energy,onboard boost control, turn off fault codes from disused sensors,and heaps more
www,ecueditor.com is where you can download the programme and see its capabilitys and, www.boostbysmith.com has the hardware
I have never compared the hp between retiming the cams or not, heard one report of something like 7 hp it advances the cams ~3.5 deg which will put your power earlier in the rev range and at worst limit the rpm your bike can pull, it may not be worth doing if your happy with how its running
i don't bother when doing a 1mm spacer , but did notice on the 750 with 2mm spacer and not retimed that it couldn't pull passed 12000
Bit more done over the last few days
Plenum is rolled , actually happened quite easily once i started putting together the bits to roll it

ends in, bov mounted, still to do the tiedown mounts

How neat are these RCC headers, one piece cast flange with the pipes fitted in and welded, and a 2 yr warranty

While i was doing the plenum i gave the compressor housings and up pipes to the local powdercoater, looks like a natural part of the bike now
http://www.asfphotos.com/upload/1280843319.jpg
Started the bike for the first time last nite, fired first turn and ran sweet, just have to do the exhaust from the wastegate out and i can have somewhere to hang the o2 sensor and dyno it [:p]
nice work Greg,was interested in your cam timing specs.its always good to see what works in different applications and engine configerations
By no means am I an expert but changing lobe centres on cam timing in my experience simply moves the power around doesn't necessarily give you any more e.g. retard timing more cylinder pressure more torque advance it less cylinder pressure but better top end, of course things change when you are charging the cylinder but thats my experience.
Standard I have found is generally the best if you can get it to work.
