RICE RACING will become famous soon enough
Here is one graph, I think I posted one from earlier testing on about 14psi boost? this is the current level which I wanted to do long term durability testing on (not a few track days followed by hidden rebuilds like some people....). I covered over the 50 hours I wanted to do and also tested in very adverse weather conditions (up to 38 deg C, and including heat soak tests then re running at full power settings). It passed all of this perfectly, I had to change allot of specifications for water injection rate, spark advance, and even things like plug gap specifications to cover all operating conditions and environments. Next step is to increase the boost level and do another durability test of around 50 hours (combined street and max output testing, generally equates to about 5000km running).

This is the performance so far on my standard 90-140kmh test.


For the next lot of work I need to take out the open circuit EGT probes which only lasted around 3000km before they went on holiday. Am getting some bespoke ones made (to my specifications) that are more turbo rotary compatible long term while still being fast in response as I require.

Forgot to add from the last posted compression (post #22) test near the top of the page, engine compression now after the near 76+ hours of running is:
Fr
121,123,121
Rr
117,116,114

Not too bad given the high duty running and constant boost setting of 18.5psi now

Here is some pics of me taking RICESP to a local test track a few days ago, did some more traction control development testing and WI hardware tests...
