Greek 850 T-5/hopefully Over 340hp.


Recommended Posts

no the exhaust is on. :) I knew that the rods should have damage,because there were times that I drove the car with very high boost without an ecu tuinng.Especially when my BCV was broken with 5th gear and 2500rpm when I was pressing the acc. pedal the pressure was up to 1.4bar :huh: So I should wait for this result.

hmm so i guess my rods are bent :lol:

Well,well the things are not going so good.... :( :(

I finally decided for pistons-rods combo.139,5mm rods 35.9mm compression height pistons.Because the other combination(143mm rods-30.5mm compr. pistons)doesn't fit.The compression goes very low.I found a kit of 5 pistons in Sweden,JE,but the bad thing is the diameter.81,5mm.So if in the future will be needed a refresh I'll have to change block.A friend found an exhaust house that manufactures tubular manifolds for about 500 euros so I'll go to discuss it,I am waiting for parts.No progress so yet.For the turbo I am thinking for GT3076R with 0.82 A/R

Giannis I'm still waiting....I ordered pistons rods they must be here tomorrow.I ordered the ARP studs,I ordered(thanks to you!!!)the turbo timer,I ordered tie rod kit,I ordered the N/A cams,I received(thanks Joseph)the AEM A/F gauge,I have the EGT Greddy.Tomorrow I will pay-order for the IPD sway bars,18x8 PEGS(Replicas)and some other styling parts,next Monday I'll go to a friend for the leather interior.I was thinking to leave the turbo-injectors-ecu after I will finish the engine in order to make a research especially with the ECU.I was thinking to contact RICA if they have any available chip for the turbo and injectors that I will tell them,and then go to PLEXTUNING(you know who is) and make corrections on the dyno.

PLEXTUNING(you know who is) and make corrections on the dyno.

I was there last week at Adreanakis, he is Tooo busy…!

We spend an hour or more just to ask him two questions.

Try also to ACE motorsport - Ασκληπιού 4-6 Πειραιάς Τηλ. 210 4101250 (Dimitriadis).

Your ECU is Motronic, wellknown, and easy to remap. -Not like our Siemens-

So I think you will find easily your way with that.

I hope so,about ACE I've e=heard some strange stories and I don't want more troubles with the car now!!!

Maybe I finally go to TOYOMAD for the custom EMS ecu.

Under the CD player I will place three gauges.

me neither - looks like a long shot of the rocker panel.......
I think that you guys must go to a doctor for a check up.

What compression pistons did you go with?
Hi Joseph,do you mean the compression ratio?As I know must be the same.
