Wolf EFI conversion

[Mike]

^{I thought some of you might be interested in this project we have just completed.}

^{During 2010 a damaged 3.0 litre engine became available. The decision to purchase this engine and rebuild it was made.}

^{This particular engine had in the past been fitted with 3mm oversized pistons and cylinders this increases the capacity to a 3.2 litre short stroke configuration. During the rebuild process the compression ratio was increased to 10.5:1 the standard camshaft was retained and the cam timing was reset to a modified setting to help improve performance. The original K-jetronic injection system and ignition systems were also retained at the time. It had proven difficult to get a good smooth running situation, in all conditions. During the process of fitting the EFI system Steve wanted the engine bay to look standard so the choice of a distributor incorporating the crankshaft sensor was taken. Inlet manifold, throttle body, injectors and fuel rail are all standard 1985 3.2 Carrera units as they are a direct bolt on conversion. The manifold has had the rough casting cleaned out of it; the throttle body has been polished and matched to the manifold, other than that it is all standard. The Engine management system is a Wolf V500 running sequentially. As a result the engine is considerably smoother with far more torque and over-all performance.}

Nice job Mike.

Have you ever done an EFI conversion on a 930 turbo?

I know they are popular in the US.

No I have not done a 930 but the biggest difference in the access to components as far as fitment is concerned.

Here is the Dyno sheet

The components are easy to get.

A combo of carrera manifold and a few parts from Turbo Kraft.

I think the hard part is the ECU and tune.

Thats a neat job you have done Mike.

I think I will call in and say Gday.

Please keep us posted on this type of project.

Great job.

Thanks very much this is the 2nd one I have done and the difference is stunning in every respect of the driving of it. Particularly in the normal driving range as well as throttle response
