Aye the times weren't supporting my power expectations. But now I can't wait to see how it really goes like when running proper!
glad there is a problem, when you solve her you should be lighting those tyres up in 2nd!
lol

I always thought it was a bit odd that 1.1bar on the TD04 would spin the wheels in 2nd but it took 1.3bar on my new build before 2nd gear lost traction.
When its running right I genuinly think I'm going to be afraid of it!

My knock sensor isn't screwed right to the block and was reporting insaine amounts of knock, but there was no knock (had the listening gear on) can the stock ecu pull back the timing from the emange ultimate to such a large degree?
Thanks for your reply lad, I sent you a PM cause you have done some serious things with the 5E and your is on the 5E markings. Have you tried your motor on the 4E markings?
My compression is down as low as 7.6:1 I'm aiming for 1.8-2.0bar of boost and its looking like a considerable abount of Nitrous in the near future. The car is road legal but isn't a road car if u get my meaning.
The 5E markings seem to produce more torque but the 4E marks (going by what people say on here) produces less torque but more hp. Thing is I thought torque and HP went hand in hand, so I can only assume the 5E marks drop off the power band earlier in the rev range.
thats why deisles dont rev very high. i just cant see the logic in the 5e using 4e mark, even though i went for that option this time...
do ALL 5e's use 5e markers or only the 5efhe - do those fhe cams make a diffrence for the 5e vs 4e mark - im using stock 4efte cams

with a cr of 7.6:1 ur gonna have to at least lob in 26psi of boost to get that engine going.. trust me on this lol my cr is 7.34:1 & on any boost level under 1.5bar i get power, however not that power that u say wow this car is revving like nuts.. after speaking to chris (mr hkspower) he told me that since i have such a lazy engine (ie such low cr) id need to compensate with alot more boost & timing to get the engine going as it takes alot more to fill the cylinders up..
about ur timing, use the 4e mark as most 5e engines have responded better without the cam overlapping, however from what uv said about ur timing id bet when u tightened her up she slipped a tooth backwords cauing her to go pretty retarded, causing all the lazyness ur saying.. i know the symptoms all to well as i had a similar problem with my car a few years ago when my tps was fucking about, one day it would be advanced like hell so we retarded it all the way (until we found the solution to the problem) & the car would barely do a burnout lol, its silly really, but makes a big difference.
best of luck!
kon
great news tps sensor FTW lol
glad you got her sorted
Phil
that plug ting your talkin about the tps plug mine kept coming off aswel a good wile ago,an i just clued it on..lol but never affected my car?not that no off anyway
