The V8 Owners Forum -

Dont think speed control is that important really but try to find a sensor to switch it with a small difference between off and on temps that way it will cycle but keep the temp close to what you want.

Hi.
Ive got a stewart industries one in mine. aswell as the std pump. its mounted low down below the radiator level so its always got a good head of pressure feeding it.
Make sure the pipe clips are quality and tight. dont ask how i know this.

Hi all
Sorry not been around for a while.
All work and no play.
Throughout the year its been to billing and peterborough land rover shows.
Its now all in and running, gone through 140l of fuel just moving around the shows and unit. :o
Been putting an interior in the car and trying to get it ready ...

Thanks.
I thought it would be a bit small, I wont chase it up then.
If you used two of them wouldnt the losses in turning them over be bigger than the gains in power?
I mean the blower uses power that would otherwise be at the wheels, twin turbos are effectively spun up for free from the waste ...

Hi all.
Been offered a supercharger from a new style mini.
What type is it?
Is it to small to do any good on a 3.9?
Thanks
Alex

My 5.0 wildcat is running with 2inch bore primaries all 28inch long as recommended.
Mild cam? 8:1 comp and procharger giving 470 hp@ 5000

Hi There
Standard Rover wiring colours White with red trace is +12v to starter solenoid.
This tells the ecu its cranking.
Would think you need it.
White wire is always +12v ignition feed. the ecu pulls up to 12v on the warning lamp and it goes out as 12v -12v =0v.
No experience of the tune resistor ...

hi
No it was never meant to be a mud plugga, just to go from a to b quickly no matter what comes up :D It does have air lockers in both diffs, air suspension heavy duty drive shafts but this was to make it as strong as possible as much as offroad capabillity. It was supposed to have gone to Morroco ...

Those are all related to running at 3 bar pressure, you can up the pressure aswell to get more from the same injector to a point, but I wanted to stay near standard if you think with boost on top of the reg plus say 5 bar thats allot of fuel to spray around if a union goes. Oh and I wasnt sure about ...

Hi There got a few new pics of the engine in its new home.




Its a bit tight

On my engine we were taking the 48lb to 70% duty at 4000rpm.
So I already bought the 55lb one and we tried these.
the engine ran real lumpy testfiring them one was only doing half the job :cry:
the dyno place had a injector cleaner and balancer. they were supposed to be matched to=/-1% try ...

I had a few bits delivered it seems the post office have a handling charge for pasing the box over the counter to you :(
Fedex or UPS dont seem to have it.
I have a allot of stuff from jegs and they always seem expensive with shipping.
I know have accel 48lb injectors spare good
Venom 55lb ...

if it all worked fine before you took it appart i wouldnt think so you havent changed anything with the ecu set up, appart from maps?.
not sure how the vems stuff works but can you put the last known map back in it?
or does it show any errors up from the last run?
before you pull big chunks off it ...

Hi All.
Thanks for all the good comments
After a few setbacks with things we have got it up and running quite nicely now.
Makes 453hp and just over 500lbft torque at peak of 5000rpm. boost is quite low aswell around 10psi.
after this the cam runs out, Quite pleased with this as there is still 9k ...
