    Well once again you inspired me. After wanting to go e85 for awhile in my cruze I'm doing it. We're going with 40LB injectors and Jerry and Bad News Racing is going to tune it. Have the injectors and plug adapters on the way. Fingers crossed. We're both curious if it's going to work but I think it shouldn't be a problem

    • @cmattdabrat

    Loving the content, I got a 1.8 and been looking around on throwing in a turbo. Gonna have to find a shop or someone to machine me out the parts for it. Gotta wait till I move back to the good old MO to work on it all though. Got any tips for when the work starts?

    • @cmattdabrat
      @cmattdabrat  Před 4 lety

      Thank you! That sounds awesome. The custom things you'll need is a manifold for the turbo, a down pipe to hook up the turbo, and you'll have to rethink the catalytic converter. It's possible to mount one right after the turbo. Aside from that, I'd say the most important thing will be adding a one way check valve between the PCV and the throttle body. How much boost are you shooting for?

    • @philipmcguire1645

    • @cmattdabrat
      @cmattdabrat  Před 4 lety +1

      There's a big difference. Spacing between ports, bolt pattern, etc. You can use the manifold and turbo from a 1.6t. It's the overseas version, but basically the same block. ebay.to/2ZKQEyk

    Are these the injectors advertised on ZZP for the 1.4? Do they provide injector data as well?

    • @cmattdabrat
      @cmattdabrat  Před 4 lety +2

      They're the 60# EV1 Semens injectors which fit both models of cars. They didn't provide any, but I also didn't ask. I was able to find the data for them. All I really had to do was change the minimum pulse width, and scaled the injectors flow rate up almost 200%. I used Goat Rope Garage's tutorial on scaling injectors to get in the ball park. Was pretty simple.

    I was just wondering don't you have to have it on the dyno to do all that air fuel tuning? I mean to see where your needing to add fuel or pull some fuel? You should check out this channel called (PFI SPEED..Brent is a tuning God).. Check out his channel on CZcams, he's fucking awesome!!

    • @cmattdabrat
      @cmattdabrat  Před 3 lety

      Love their channel. Brent is a cool guy, so it Jamie, Phong, all the crew. You can tune on the street. I just takes longer because you can't control the load and RPMs. That, and it's not near as safe. I'm going to street tune it, to get it drivable. Once I get it to that point, I have a buddy that will let me use his dyno to dial it in.
