ScoobyMania's WR1

Postby ScoobyMania » Sun Nov 12, 2006 9:01 pm

Hello :)

Just been sent a link to this site - I didn't realize there was a dedicated forum for WR1 owners 8)

Thought we would share some pics of a WR1 we have just tuned. The brief for this car was for it to be tuned on normal unleaded 95 ron fuel (unfortunately V-power and race fuel not allowed) and for it to be a daily driver. Final figures are 554bhp and 530lbft. Any questions please ask away :)

Hi chaps, thanks for the welcome :)

How much? hmmm I'd have too check :wink:

The motor is one of our Stage 3 units - a fully forged and sleeved 2.5L with custom combustion chambers, port work and cams - all built and assembled here in good old Nottingham.

The turbo is a reworked Garrett unit with external wastegate (which is replumbed back to the exhaust to keep noise levels to a minimum). It uses our race intercooler core - charge temps never above 24c!

The fuel system features a lift pump pumping to a swirl pot, then a Aeromotive pressure pump feeds the rails. Flows around a gallon a minute on full chat :twisted:

ECU is GEMS with switchable maps, anti-lag etc

lots of other goodies, some top secret :wink:

Nice work Mr Scoobymania and great figures!

A few questions if i may?

Is this your own spec bottom end? If it is could you give details? Or are you using Crawford / Axis etc?

I understand its a 2.5? Are you still on semi closed EJ25, or is a relinered closed deck EJ22? Is that a GT30 or a 35? and what boost are you running it at?

Could i ask what sort of oil pressures you are runing at with a cooler up there and i assume some lengthy pipework. Have you had any problems with cavitation etc. on initial fill?

I LOVE the hose clamps 8) . Very different fron the Mikalor/Norma type etc. Where did you get them from if you don't mind me asking?

LOL - you are certainly welcome to pop over and take a look :wink:

>> Thankyou :)

A few questions if i may?

Is this your own spec bottom end? If it is could you give details? Or are you using Crawford / Axis etc?

>> Yes this is our own spec bottom (and top) end, like I say speced and built here. We use Pauter rods with our own spec pistons/pins and ring gaps :) It is fully blueprinted (a very miss-used term!) with our own clearances.

I understand its a 2.5? Are you still on semi closed EJ25, or is a relinered closed deck EJ22? Is that a GT30 or a 35? and what boost are you running it at?

>> The crankcase is 257 based with quite a bit of machine work. Turbo is 'a' GT35 @ 1.75 bar.

Could i ask what sort of oil pressures you are runing at with a cooler up there and i assume some lengthy pipework. Have you had any problems with cavitation etc. on initial fill?

>> We try to keep pressure to a 'minimum' and concentrte on flow through the block and its return to the sump. The crank and block oilways are reworked to take thes factors into account.

I LOVE the hose clamps Cool . Very different fron the Mikalor/Norma type etc. Where did you get them from if you don't mind me asking?

>> Hmmm, I will find out - I just know we have boxes and boxes full of them.

Looks 8)

A price on some of your packages would be a good idea ?


And a price on the conversion


Why is V-power not allowed ?
The reason's behind 95ron fuel only ?

The customer has yet to decide which route to take. Personally I would recommend a AP 4 or 6 pot kit, coupled with the KW variant 3 coilover kit.
