Hi guyz,
I put my Coupe 16VT on the drag race with standard Opel Kadett E 16v (which has almost identical drag time like a coupe 16VT, around 15.3s) and I fall behind him almost two lengths of the car (so i have no more than 155-160 hp) and i am suspicious on my turbo wastegate (Turbocharger is checked, compression 13.0 so the engine is ok). On high rpm i totally loose a torque so i think that my wastegate opens to early, is that possible ?! WHAT IS THE PROBLEM????:shrug:

Also i need to mansion that my cams is slightly damaged, cause my oil pressure was bad (now it's fixed) and exhaust is damaged, had a dent on one section so the flow is slightly decreased!!!!!! Otherwise can i put cams from standard 2.0 16v non-turbo engine on my, can i loose torque on lower rpms and how big lost is???:confused:

These two problems looks like that's the problem.....but that's only maybe 10 or 15 hp less.....where's the another 25-30 horses????!!!!:bang:

THX anyway.......
 
Time is about 16.5s....are you sure that the problem is in a wheel bolt???!!!:p
Coupe's start is so much better than the GSI, but GSI is much quicker on high rpms!!! Third problem except those two doesn't exist!!!!
