BadAss SRT-Z - 2.4L / A568 - Update!!!

[Turbo3Iroc]

Hmm, mine is for a 568
I've been using this one long before the Squirrel Perf was around.

I like Frank's sheet cuz it has the graphing so you can see each gear and estimete shift points

[Turbo3Iroc]

No Exel

Really? What are you a Mac guy?

Nope just never needed it for anything.

Excel is awesome, like a really cool calculator that has difficulties doing scientific functions, LOL!

Actually I think it is... why?

The turbo oil pump wants to flow a LOT more oil than a standard 2.4 pump because of the piston squirters in a turbo engine. If I am right in thinking you are using an early 2.4 motor, you will have an excessive pressure condition because of this. My brother just recently upgraded to SRT-4 pump, pan and filter housing and he made so much oil pressure it pushed out the oil pan gasket.

open office...free, opens excel files

good point on the oil squirters Mike

Hmmm... that may be it. Early 2.4L and not sure if the Al rods have squirters?

Damn, so how did he lower the oil pressure?

BTW, mine runs lower (30-40 maybe?) oil pressure when warm....

[Austrian Dodge]

the squirtes spray oil on the bottom of the piston to cool it down a bit.
but the stock 2.4 pump flows 12cc and the srt4 flows 15cc...

is that 3cc that much in difference in oil pressure?

He hasn't fixed his yet, but supposedly you can upen up the bypass port to compensate. He said he will send pictures when it's done.

[BadAssPerformance]

Cool...

[contraption22]

Cool...

BTW, the piston squirters are on the block, not on the connecting rods. Late 2.4's have an extra oil galley for these squirters.

[Austrian Dodge]

and you can even machine a '96 block and run them
although i doubt that with the width auf those alum. rods you have enough clearance not hitting the squirters...someone check that please

Sounds like traction is still a serious issue.

[BadAssPerformance]

1st spun hard enough I short shifted 2nd trying to bog it... didnt work, LOL!

That is some serious action for 15PSI with slicks.

Sounded like it bogged to me!
