    Twin Turbo 1UZ 1970 Ford Capri street/strip car

    back clearance was the problem. We did lateral GAS porting as well. New rings I think were 5-10 thou backspace, was 50-thou with other's

    TT 1UZ power level issues.

    best to tune in a scale you're familiar with, I still use gas AFR with E85. You can throw a shitload of timing and E85 at it, or lean it out and it loves it. We run 11:1 and run the same timing as we did with 8.5:1, timing makes the most difference

    TT 1UZ power level issues.

    the class we race in x275 the car must weigh a minimum of 3200lbs http://www.austprostassc.com.au/X275_Rules.shtml the rules are clearly stated there. factory weight of the car is 2400lbs, by the time you remove the 4-cylinder engine, add a V8, cage, 9'' diff, turbo's, chassis connectors so the...

    TT 1UZ power level issues.

    A good tuner can get it right. Doesn't take long. The down low tuning took the longest about 30-45mins, the rest within 5-6 pulls on high boost it was done. The 1/4mph calculator doesn't lie, shows MPH n times we should be achieving. The Capri makes 870rwhp with Powerglide that uses roughly...

    TT 1UZ power level issues.

    I wouldn't be concerned with gaskets, coils etc. There's more to it, the power isn't showing, to run 131mph with a car weighing say 3700lbs you need about 600-620hp at the engine. Factory headed and 8.5:1 CR we were seeing that power on about 15psi and around 730hp@23psi on gasoline, with E85...

    TT 1UZ power level issues.

    Yes has full interior and a cage, needs to because of times it runs. Weighs 3220lbs and races on a 275 radial. When you run 8's at close to 170mph you need to compromise unfortunately. The car is safer and drives better than the day it left the factory floor. Australia is alot stricter than...

    TT 1UZ power level issues.

    they don't have to specialise in a 1UZ. A good tuner can tune anything. If they are familiar with the ECU it definitely helps.. I do all the track tuning, if I can do it anyone can lol To gain that much fuel economy they did something wrong, we average about 14L/100km on E85

    TT 1UZ power level issues.

    we would never change from going standalone. if you think you can't get to drive a car with a standalone and have it drive like stock, come for a drive in the Capri. we passed emissions with flying colours on pump gasoline. everyone has different goals. first we done this...

    Long time lurker pondering first UZ swap

    1UZ way to go. If 500rwhp is your goal only, then either will be fine.

    TT 1UZ power level issues.

    yeah they are very strict over there with sfi, little more relaxed here. You won't lift head at 30psi. As I said we have 350 1/4 mile passes, 150 dyno passes and 30000 miles street driving, all with 10mm head studs running 30-32psi. We run aggressive timing and when the motor was pulled down...

    TT 1UZ power level issues.

    on Aussie 98-octane (US 93) we ran 20-degree's timing with 23psi. we were showing about 850hp@motor, ran 9.00@151mph in a 3100lb car. every engine is different, the 1UZ however is one that responds well to timing on E85.

    agree, aftermarket ECU is required. $1000-$1500 for ECU or $5-$6k for new motor, i know which i'd go :p
