Nice work, is this going to be a stage 2?

Nice work, is this going to be a stage 2?

yes its going stage 2 for now as theres not much time left to get it all fitted main goal is to get it all installed and running

it will have
3.1" stage 2 pulley
quad pass on the intercooler
large front mounted rad
filling tee to be upgraded to option b kit later on
thermal gaskets

Isn't stage 2 over 280bhp if so what internal work has been done? Also "quad pass" intercooler? How's that piped only seen the dual pass mod.

stage 1 = 205-215hp 3.3"
stage 2 = 215 -230hp 3.3 with cooling
stage 3 = 230 -260hp 3.1 with dual pass cooling
stage WTF = 280+ hp 3.1 and smaller with cooling mods

this one should be about 230-240 with the 3.1 pulley

quad pass is the standard setup on the inlet manifold the water makes 4 passes before exiting dual pass makes 2 passes before exiting single pass is one supply to all 4 cores and one exit from all 4 cores

Oh nice, really good seeing another one getting the SC treatment

 

[Dave Gilbert]

its not fair, anyone want to buy a vectra or swap for an astra

 

[milo]

Get vid uploaded bud

 

[dewismotorsport]

Ah got you now cheers, for some reason Steve said his was stage 1 @270bhp

So once I've modded the inlet to dual pass that's me in the 3+ bracket.

When you said quad pass I thought it was somehow different from standard

iirc steves was 250ish ?
yep with dual pass your a stage three ish level lol
its hard to describe the quad pass other than saying ""standard"" lol

day 2
new 3 legged puller was a dream for removing the stock pulley from the snout i liked it alot as you can see


the use of the torque wrench made all the diffrence


the tool


and no damaged to the stock pulley


the boss for the zzp pulley went on


engine loom made and extended


charger installed and loom wrapped


cs bracket at the rear is a load of bull s**t and caused all manner of problems the evo style bracket was used and is still the better way


the completed install all but the charger cooler pump failed




shane has gone home now i hope he has a good trip and it was nice to meet him and work on his car

 

[Dave Gilbert]

Just looked through old messages & my bad if was 260bhp @ 11psi

Once it's complete and up and running I'll get it dyno'd and see what it's putting out
