I noticed the last post was from a year ago but I hope you are still running this and would love to hear an update.

I didn't realize you were running avgas. I know of one ST that ran 13 PSI on pump for a while. Finally it blew a ringland but the owner suspected it was more due to a rough tune.

I am currenly running 6 PSI on my stock internal blacktop (11:1 compression) on a GZE ECU and frankenstein electronics. I feel like I could run more but don't want to pop it just yet. I think you guys could get a lot more out of it.

i am swapping my mr2 with the 3sgte for hillclimb, I can only hope it runs as fast as this!

Great video. I am also going to be turboing my silvertop aw11 in the near future and am interested in some build pics for inspiration. 110RWKW is a bit on the low side though? I've heard of someone making 135RWKW on 5psi. Is this because your VVT isn't hooked up?

[FISHHEAD404040]

Yep VVT will make the difference, last dyno was with a split intake plenum, torque drops off at 6000rpm. power peaked 114kw, but level bewteen 6 and 8000rpm. Don't know how to post photos on ytou tube.

@TheSinturion

Since uprated with LSD, single throttle body, new plenum, Link G4 ECU, makes 177rwkw @ 6900rpm and 13psi. Peak Power not affected by VVT. VVT is effective and active up to 6000rpm: e.g 120rwkw at 4500rpm)

@FISHHEAD404040 Nice! Still an unopened engine? which gearbox are you using?

[FISHHEAD404040]

@Sinturion1

Engine is standard silvertop, but has freshly rebuilt short block.

Standard C52 5 speed box. TRD LSD.

We have also fabricated new bottom for sump sump: with baffles & 6 litre capacity. On circuit with standard sump, bearings ran out of oil very quickly around right hand turns.

@Sinturion1

note, we use Avgas.

Unable to run 13psi with pump fuel on this std 10.5:1 compression

Got any photos/build info on this bad boy?Wanting to turbo my AW11 next year. This thing is NUTS!

Amazing! I only hope mine goes as well as this and my driving skill/bravery increases to match.
