Hodge's new 4.2

[jff45]

Is that 16 - 17 psi with a stock HT18 turbo?

Here is mine with a 10mm pump... think its about 14-15 pound of boost.

I just popped in to JPC's just after you left... So its much better yeah?

Seems like its the place to be .When I was there initially I saw Jonathans car, and didnt see him he was at the back . Then he rang me after and gave me a lift there.... Cheers !!


And yeah it's a different beast now, up above 60, little gain down lower end but not much just a much linear response but up high end its now really good.
Extra boost helped EGT a bit however still need the IC.

Yes mate. Stock turbo.

Im thinking your EGTs are much lower as well ???

EDIT:: forgot about your IC did they say how much difference it would make

He said the stock IC are ok for stock cooling purposes but, they tend to become a massive heat soak at prolonged exposure to high temps and takes ages to cool down ... Which is exactly what I found up in the hills. Fan would also help but most beneficial would be the scoop I reckon.

Maybe pop down to Jaycar and see what heat sinks they have that may help
dissipate the heat, maybe even gold heat tape up the end tanks

Stock purposes means stock. Running the ht18 at 17psi is getting up there and is more than likely outside of its efficiency range so the stock ic job is now a little harder than before. They will handle the pressure as I have run a stock one at 30psi (stock ic).

Will be interested of your thoughts after a a few weeks of operation.
