The RE engine has much higher compression and weaker pistons than the RTE engine.
I guess it's subject to argument, but the strength of the two pistons are identical within fractions of a percent.
The RTE injectors also have a higher capacity than the RE's
22RE Injectors are orange and flow 200 ccm, and the 22RTE Injectors are yellowish-orange and flow 250 ccm.
I read that the bung is there on all 22r/22re blocks but it must be drilled
This is true however I do not know much about it...
How does the throttle body plumb into this set up?
My first pic is a custom intercooler job I did on my buddies 86 Turbo. The blue arrow is the outside air being sucked into the turbo, and the red arrow is the boost/pressure being forced into the throttle body.
My second pic shows a turbo and its appropriate inputs/outputs. Looking at the pic the exhaust/out yellow arrows seem a bit confusing.. The yellow exhaust arrow is the exhaust gasses being pushed out of the engine, and the yellow out arrow is the exhaust gasses being blown out of the turbo itself and then down into the exhaust system.
I has the SDS onboard computor system and am running low compression forged pistons already.
Are we talking 8.5:1 or so?? Stock rods?
I am curious if you have any more info on the SDS computer system. If you are trying to run a biggy-back system over the top of a 22RE EFI system then I doubt you will achieve the results you are after. Especially you need larger injectors, Colder spark plugs, and a ECU with a different AC voltage range for the knock sensor maybe... (hence just using an entire 22RTE EFI system)
Let us know how your project goes from here!!
