[gazcuprablk]

so can i run my map on this new engine setup when it goes in or will i need to run it on a 'safe' map?

 

[ibizacupra]

whats the difference in spec on the motors?
same bore and compression..?

 

[gazcuprablk]

same engine apart it has a code of aqx i think, has scat rods and bam pistons and a large port head and i will be fittin all my stuff on there the the gt28 the injectors fuel pump etc

 

[PhilW]

ANy pics of the carnage?

 

[ibizacupra]

expect it to run slightly too lean if largeport I think at the higher rpms as it will be flowing more..
likely to need a tweak to fueling

 

[gazcuprablk]

ah ok will find out for defo, what car/model was the engine code aqx on? not sure if its the same head or he has used a largeport will find out this week as im awaitin delivery
