ive been bolting on turbos, superchargers, and still maintain the reliability of those rides, y ler u guys say like gonna terbarai je if bot? if done properly, its definitely gonna last long and be reliable.
ive raised a compression an evo3 to around 11.8~12.2, and boost it sky high 1.7bar on a bigger T3/T4, producing a mere 360 on dyno dynamics, running under 5secs to the hundred, and havent blown a piston so far, at least not yet. people have been telling me its not possible, but yet there it is, roaming around selamba je, more then 3 years dah.. of course tuning was done by the maestro of microtech, joshua thiran of millennium motorsports asia, i expect nuthing less then a reliable tune. fyi, when tuning is done properly, dat extra power is an added bonus je.. people who tune solely for the power figure are usually the ones dat blow an engine up, ive seen many of dat hapenning..
nuff said..
U are talking about the Comression Test result right..? 12.5 Compression result is still consider acceptable.
It's all about tunning.
I did not say that the engine will not be reliable. But the cost of building a BOT 4G93 to be reliable will cost almost the same price as a 4G93T but still achieving less.
Might as well get a 4G93T and start building from there. That's what I was talking about. I'm also a BOTer... If someone wants to enjoy their engine and wanted to learn and know more about their engine, BOT is the way to go... Money is the only concern.
people even turbocharge the lambo nazmi, giloss diorang ni..
for me, the most important thing is the tuning. ive seen a lot of built racing motors terbarai because it wasnt tuned properly. con rod bengkok berpusing (u know, like the gamma symbol?) pun ade, tuning was done by sumwhat famous garage jugek..
fyi, any motor can be charged up
Sometimes not that it wasn't tuned properly... It's also the owner of the machine not satisfying with the result and gone beyond the limit.
Most of the ppl esspecially in Malaysia will ask question like.... "How many bars my engine can tahan..?", "what boost my conrod/pistons can take etc etc..?"
If the person knows his engine well, his question would be "How much HP my stock rods/pistons will hold/withstand??"
It's not the boost... It's the horsepower limit that ur engine can hold... I mean provided it's well tuned to eliminate all premature detonations.
Yezza, its not like only conrod berpusing, blok broken because of the conrod pun got, really scared to see that blok..
Really agreed, tuning matters really need to be considered before start boosting..:proud:
Yes... Boost don't kill the engine. Premature detonation does. If can avoid this ghost, ur engine lives happily.
i agreed any motors can b.o.t but when it comes to liability still oem the best
reliability will never be an issue if the set up and managed well. If u have time, check out Dirty-D Bolting a GT35R inducing 2+psi achieving 4XXWHP running 11secs with his 1.6 D16 motor. It's also a daily drive.
Epic tunning from States built a BOT D16 ZC with 3XX WHP with stock internals.
spuzzle, not necessarily true sir, ive seen a factory spec gen2 lasted only few months, not even a year pun, it came new outta the show room, it was torn apart for a complete rebuild when i saw it in a workshop. so, at sum point, u can get a spec dat will be more reliable then the factory's. seen sum other cases on other makes, i hate to say it depends on ur luck, but ive to admit dat sumtime it does.. dats y ive never bought cars new, if u buy a used unit then they bound to have sum problems, if they dont then alhamdulillah.. i dont mind getting a car cheap and spend a tad more for repair, at least i know all the fecked parts has been replaced, so reliability wont be a biggy in the near future.
err, lets not bash proton over this matter shall we, i think theyve had enough, plus dis was years ago..
so, back to the topic..
FYI, That's because the engine is not properly designed. I discussed it in one of my thread. "Why CAMPRO ENGINE FAILS ON THE CRANK. CAMPRO VS 4G92"
The word
BOT, is actually damaged by some irrespossible mechanics and workshop whom claims and promise too much to the car owner and at the end of the day detonate the engine and blame the engine. But in actual fact, they don't know what they are doing and the limit of the engine internals.
Very famous BOT that fails the engine and promisses alot are DXXX and XXXXN... These are the ppl whom polute the
BOT
I'm also running a 4G92BOT... So far no problem....
