Maybe when you quit being a negative, narrow minded asshole about it you can accept that there are better systems out there that have more features for the money.

Oh BTW, consider this a warning for the above two statements.

I'll consider it a warning when a mod tells me. Remember, you don't represent the forum, or so you said. I don't think anyone would find what I've said so far about you as anything but a true observation.

And keep the threats to yourself, this is a place for exchanging ideas and knowledge on rotary powered vehicles. Your not the first hater I've had to deal with and I'm sure you won't be the last.

You still don't get it.

You do realize RETed is a mod right?

Get a Garrett GT35R - GT3582R specifically.
Would a streetported 6 port make a difference in optimal turbo choice?

Ted is a mod. He also likes to harass noobs.

Kind of a conflict of interest to me. Ted does possess a lot of good information, it is just the delivery that is an issue.

So, Vincent, in the User Control Panel, just add Ted to your ignore list and you will be fine :)

I wouldn't call it harassing noobs. I'd say he just gives them less room before "guiding" them to the "correct" path. (and when I say correct I mean the path known to work, the least headaches, and the greatest chance of success). All the local people with 6-port turbos are WELL versed in the risk they are taking, or at least have people guiding them through the process.

Advantages:
1, I already have a 6 port in the car
2, they're cheap to replace if it goes boom
3, Paul, Jacob, and Charles help me :biggthumpup:

lulz @ ted being a dick, but he's completely right.

why? OP said he is trying to do stuff on the cheap. those ID injectors are far from cheap.

^ just wanted to re-quote this for consistency.




i'm with ted.
save up a little cash and do it right, or don't do it. "cheap" is usually not successful unless you understand ever facet and possible shortcoming of what you're attempting.

djmtsu 04-09-2012 12:19 PM

GTFO troll.

ID injectors are not expensive for what you get. Do it once, or do it twice and spend double the money.

And sorry, 2 just because Robert is a damn slacker. Lol. I could say three since Paul used to have one.

And E85 is inconsistent in the blend. Look it up. Matt's car with the parallel set up is fine, but for most, just switching to E85 is going to be a headache, and cost a lot more.

So GTFO until you buy another rotary.

:( Ouch... lol I'm only 50% slacker, 75% poor, and 29% bad at percentages.

E85 is a bit inconsistent, but it also provides a decent margin of error no matter what the exact mix is. I plan on running it, with or without parallel lines (not sure how that would make a difference in consistency though?).

There was an excellent article linked around here somewhere detailing the pros/cons of E85 with enough insight to know that I would never use it. Mostly because of the fact that it absorbs water over time. So if your car sits (like mine always do) it can cause some headaches down the road.

But I know there are E85 leghumpers and E85 haters. I am not a hater, Matt's car is proof that it makes power, I just am not sold on it.

why would you have to "do it twice" because you got injectors that are not Injector Dynamics?

GTFO? that's not very nice. rotary or not, i would say i'm just as qualified to post on this subject as you are. we both have real world experience with e85, aftermarket turbos, Haltech EMS, and Injector Dynamics fuel injectors, right?

i was not telling the OP whether or not to run E85, just questioning you, as you seem to have experience with its consistency.

also, robert is exactly right about the safety margin being higher to begin with (you may have trouble googling that one)
