white quest ky Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 Im taking delivery on bryan vaughans (cyberquests) montero next week and i was curious as to what you guys have done other than fuel injecting or turbocharging to squeeze some power out any input would be appreciated Kendall wrench Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MainstreaM Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 If you want it to run well, don't "F" with the factory carburetor. It has a pretty well designed exhaust manifold so a header is not absolutely necessary but may help a little. You'll get a pretty good gain by going with a weber conversion but the Montero you're getting runs very well as is. Pat the gas twice and she'll fire right up every time. Personally having owned this one, if I weren't going turbo, I wouldn't mess with it. Even if you hop the engine up, it's still gonna be slow.

TainterRacing Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 (edited) I have run TBI N/A, MPI N/A and both turbo. as well as some hiticitch carb crap that came with it from some other hack job instaling it. The MPI N/A ran by far the best of the N/A setups. I run 4 diff turbos on them. A smaller turbo is what I would put on it if you did go that way. As for N/A power clean up the heads and port match all the manifolds will help. Mill the head a bit. Here is a link to a dyno with header and cam. + Weber. Was done on a 4 wheel dyno.http://www.26liter.us/gallery/albums/userpics/12127/NA_Montero_dyno_2_6_with_after_market_cam.jpg Edited February 3, 2012 by TainterRacing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superscan811 Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Built myself a strong, daily driven, normally aspirated, 2.6L Astron engine mid last year.CR was around 9.5:1 My build thread (on Sigma-Galant.com) Used motorbike carbs instead of the standard carb choices. http://users.tpg.com.au/ntome44/SG/Motorbike_carbs/38mm-top.jpg My last dyno..http://users.tpg.com.au/ntome44/SG/DYNO/dyno-thornleigh.jpg I've since fixed up the AF ratio's between 2500 and 3500 but haven't re-dyno'd it yet. It's around 133HP at the wheels. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
