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???
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.......
