rsgntx 0 Posted June 10, 2010 News from Dave at DG!! Compression test: All cylinder between 11.5 - 12.5 bar :D Engine running a little rich all the time...... but they think this is the pattern temp sensors fitted to the new stat housing.... these will need changing. New hoses all in. New aux belt in. :D Head is now off. Top tensioner pad looks fine. Valves look fine. Cylinders look good apart from rich running. :D More pics tomorrow!!!! :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rsgntx 0 Posted June 10, 2010 Do you know roughly how many bhp will it gain? :) will be running around 8 psi so we are thinking close to 300bhp with the misting system fitted. Pick that up tomorrow along with the ARP bolts... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The_Dude 0 Posted June 10, 2010 Looking fresh buddy! One thing that did cause it to lose shine was the bonnet foam coming into contact with the top, so maybe watch out for that. Have you got any other engine mods? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have you got any other engine mods? the cool misting is a new version from US supposed to be easier to program and got some new features low level warning boost display and a few others. head is going to be rebuilt,, but not changing the cams to anything special! thanks for the tip will take a look at this perhaps change to heatshield pad above it!
