The injectors,from greenline just over £600.00 all in,iirc arn't supe' standard inj's similar size?We Could prob have picked 'em up cheaper from e-bay,plenty floating about at the mo.
The blower was a real bargain,got all the parts & elbow for one price,just under £1000.00from Nengun Performance-Japan www.nengun.com .They've recently stopped doing 2nd hand stuff,so it was clearance price
Knowing my luck,I'll break it soon enough

Nice kit

Got a 1600cc secondary rail on the way and have the rad/ic ready... hopefully it'll be off towards the end of the week for fettling. Might change the turbos to non-sequential config too

Maybe ~350rwhp when done What rwhp are you shooting for?

Thanx guys,iaint-Is a secondary rail on a wankel in addition to whats already there? so that you're adding to the number of inj's(multi-inj?)? Or just the size/volume?

Consistant<|>330ish rwhp is where I'm kinda aiming at,it's plenty for me.Presently around 300-310.With the GTST,I think it'll be about the limit for daily drivability V's spending daft(or really daft!) £££'s on more power.Which,tbh,I don't really need.All imo,of course.
I'll follow this up with a good(read fairly safe -not too lean level) mapping session.
I'd reallylike to call it a day then,but poss go for a 1.6mm steel head gasket & I recently met a retired ferrari tuner,who kept whispering about gas-flowing in my ear DOH!

It has 2 rails as standard - 550cc primary and 850cc secondary. The secondary rail kicks in ~4k rpm. So just a slight volume change - keeping the primary standard means not real detriment to normal restrained driving mpg (i.e. it's bad but won';t get worse!!!)

I know what you mean - plenty of evil people coming up with ideas for new toys

I think 350 would be the absolute max I can shoot for with non-sequential config on the twin turbos (i.e. they act like a single turbo rather than coming on in stages as present). 310-330 would be plenty but I'll up the boost to 1bar (from 0.8) and will see where we get to.

I've already had the engine ported (inlet and exhaust) which I guess is broadly equivalent to having the head gas flowed on a boinger.

Modding is an addiction - when I had my last power tweak I thought it would be fast enough but you get used to it and it begins to feel slow!

Erm. A different smiffy perhaps?
