Hi all you 12HT users,
I asked this before but never got any good respond.
How high do the EGT's max out on a stock HJ61 ?
Just would like to know what the factory thought to be sustainable - I'm quite happy backing of at 600°C (1112 °F) since some since I fitted the EGT gauge. That seems to be alright and also is around what most people believe is sustainable.
That is measured pre turbo at 0.8 bar (11.6 psi) boost with a slightly tweaked pump, opened up dump knee+76mm (3") exhaust with straight through muffler. No intercooler. So not stock anymore ( as most are'nt ...)
But has anybody measured the MAX pre turbo EGT's BEFORE modifying the setup, completely stock ?
