285whp??... Haha, it's back - with 320whp!!

Well here I am, sitting at the computer late at night because I can't sleep... I figure I'll surf NASIOC's "Prooven Power Bragging" forum since I no longer own the SVX and like the feeling of a ~450wtq STi engine...

All of the sudden I see this thread...

http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/show....php?t=1652516

With THIS Video in it...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqnuj58lFQI

That's right... That 3.3ltr (EG33) swapped race 2.5RS is back... This time with a fully build motor, and the results (AND VIDEO) are mind-blowing... I mean I can't imagine an SVX with this much NA power. That's almost as much that's in my current car!!

I'll tell ya what though, seeing this thread really REALLY makes me miss the SVX and all the dreams I had for it once apon a time ... I hope I can find another SVX someday...

Nice numbers!

What's up with the dyno pull though? Does the shop not know how to do a pull correctly?

That video is of a top-speed run, not the actual dyno pull. With the Mustang dyno you can insert the car's drag coefficient from the database, the vehicle's weight and gearing, and then do a 'pull' with simulated drag from the dyno. 7600 rpm's in 5th gear on that run according to Jack.

Just an FYI. The car this engine is fitted to is being parted out, therefore the 318 whp/276 wtq EG33 (now 3.5 litres) is available as a complete engine with oil pan, headers, cold air box. (ECU is separate however)

Interested parties should contact Jack Laverty at EFI Logics.

Newsflash: Jack has decided to not only keep his H6 powered Impreza, he is going to start racing it again. Selling the Motec ECU and going with a Megasquirt to help free up some funds. Updates on Facebook (via EFI Logic).

How much does he want for the motec ecu? Or is it already claimed?

If we had some base information for the megasquirts, that would open up a wonderful option for us. I, for one, would love to use a megasquirt, but I don't have any base maps or any thing to get started. Like setting it up to use the stock sensors mainly. So try and get him to post up that information for us.

Not sure if the Motec is claimed or not.

As far as the Megasquirt, I can pass along any info on the sensors of course, but in terms of a base map: it would be useless unless you had the same cams, same compression, and the same injectors.

Any kind of starting point would be great. At this point, we really have nothing. But yes, the main thing is getting the sensors calibrated correctly.
