Zer0d Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 Since I've got my coupe running, more or less properly, You guys think I could get it to around 140hp pretty easily? Or should I take the time to drop an EJ22 into it? (You'd be surprised at how many there are up here, without cars attached) No, this isn't a, zomg tell me how 2 mak mah carrr fast! Just curious if the investment would be fit on something else entirely (And yes, I know I probably should have searched, but I'm off to bed soon) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waimaks Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 I think you could yes. Don't ask me how specifically though. I only have vauge Ideas in that department. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joostvdw Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 in europe the EA82T delivered stock 136hp, with a bigger exhaust and some small intake mods, you can easily get 140hp the main difference between EDM and USDM is the boost pressure (there may be more), mines set at 0,6/0,7 bar while yours is at 0,4/0,5 so upping the boost and adding an intercooler will net you some ponies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zer0d Posted March 19, 2007 Author Share Posted March 19, 2007 I would assume that's to the wheel? Sar far performance wise, I've been told between 110 and 115 whp. So the goal is 130+ whp without going into debt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeshoup Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 130whp might not be possible reliably without lots of money. For 130hp, you're looking at about 180chp, when stock is 115. The EDM/JDM XTs make 136chp. Pick two: Reliability Performance Cost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the goal is 130+ whp without going into debt. no that is crank HP, the EDM have stock ~136chp and the USDM have ~115chp you should read the threads of WJM (will) he has done a lots of research and even had some succes (there are more people who have done the same, calebz, boostedballs for instance, there is loads to read) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWX Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 header, full 2.5 inch turbo back exhaust, leave the intake alone, and a boost controller. just don't do any long pulls unless you want to invest in some engine management Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zer0d Posted March 19, 2007 Author Share Posted March 19, 2007 Was afraid it'd be crank, Doesn't matter, still scoots faster than most cars around here. I would like to do some dyno runs, but the closest place that can run all four wants $90 a run :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkipina Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 2.5" exhaust and DP, 0.7 bar boost and 136 hp off the wheels (162 chp)... that was my turbo Leone couple of years ago. Easy and cheap and reliable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy and cheap and reliable I have that exact setup and I highly doubt I have 160chp, was that with or without IC? stock manifold/uppipe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoahDL88 Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 The money invested in making an EA-82T run 140 hp would be more useful in making an EJ22T, or just the plain EJ22 more peppy, and the EJ series is arguably much more reliable. I'd go EJ, just my .02 cents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJM Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 EA82T ftw. I've had mine that fast. Easy. I had one that was putting out 240 CRANK hp and 320 CRANK tq for a LONG time. No problems. That engine still lives today after 40k+ street miles, a day at the road course, over 100 autox's and a few mountian runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joostvdw Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 Header, turbo back, STI TMIC, intake, 14 PSI of boost. and it didn't go lean? I thought that was the main problem, injectors maxing out and no easy/cheap way of controlling bigger ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zer0d Posted March 20, 2007 Author Share Posted March 20, 2007 So...best bet for more power is more boost, and for the long run a new engine. I like those odds! Eheh... So You guys think that .7 bar would over power my injectors? (roughly 10lbs of boost) I don't mind running a little lean either, better gas mileage is always a bonus XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WJM Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 12 PSI maxes the injectors at 4000 RPM with that setup. So yes, I was running about 15:1 at redline at 14~15 PSI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was only planning on running 10 pounds, What did you do to the fuel cut, or is yours the one of the lucky ones... I was planning on buying a fuel cut defenser but not so soon...

WJM Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 mine fuel cut on STOCK boost with a completely BONE stock setup. *shrug* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beataru Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 so howd you manage to pump up the boost with it herkin and jerkin??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJM Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 It was a 250ms fuel cut every 10 seconds of boost time. Thats better than the standard cut...which detects overboost, counts...then cuts fuel until the boost is back below 10psi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingbobdole Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 My two cents is go EJ... I loathe the EA82T, I've had quite a few and none of them hold together, not even in stock form... my SPFI EA82 is a billion times more reliable. I wanted more power in my Rx, I added an intercooler and before I could do anything else, the HGs blew out of the blue. Now its almost done with an EJ25 swap... not the best engine ever, but I got it cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
