No mo rev hang!

 

No mo rev AT ALL!

 

Anyone who can change gears quick will quickly feel e weight of these commuter flywheel weights
Holds momentum off line for rookie drivers plus won’t stall nearly as easily.

 

The reason maybe good and I’m not disputing what you have written.

But that doesn’t negate the fact they can and do become loose and interfere with the rotating assembly.

Having removed 2 balance shaft assemblies their really isn’t much difference in how it feels threw the steering wheel, pedals or the seat of your butt.

Or people could balance the rotating assembly the old fashioned way (properly) and balance the crank, rods, pistons and flywheel, friction plate and pressure plate as one assembly and it should, would rev super smooth

 

You can't remove the secondary vibrations even with a perfect balance job on the engine, the secondary vibration is inherent in the design. You can reduce the the magnitude by reducing the weight of the reciprocating components such as rods and pistons and naturally a good balance job. How acceptable the NVH is to the user is a personal thing. One member here @Hank did the balance shaft delete for his track/road car and said he wouldn't recommend it for a DD as it was too vibey but others may be able to live with it. Manufacturers are in the business of cutting every dime from production costs and believe me they wouldn't include a balance shaft assembly if there was next to no benefit. My experience with balance shaft failures is it's often the interference fit drive gears with no keyways and keys that shift under track/racing conditions that leads to dephasing the shafts and failure.

I have noticed extra engine vibration since the BS delete but it’s not unacceptable

 

Personally I didn’t feel much difference less of an interference than changing the RMM

 

Just an uppdate!!

It has been a while since the RS has gone out of service.

I picked up the Speed Performance 2.5L TOP DOG stroker engine, XDI EVO Pump and 2,000cc injectors December 23rd. Big shout out to they guys at SpeedPerformance. They have been great every step of the way even before ordering the engine when i was asking them question about my failed engine from Esslinger Engineering and trying to get parts to fix it before i realized the extent of the damage due to Esslingers Fault.

Best Xmass present ever lol. I have it in the yard by the car and will plan to start working on it next week. I washed the car and cleaned up the engine bay as it was covered in spider webs. Pulled the intercooler and cleaned everything. When done, I will have a priest throw some holy water on it and i will be all set lol.

Happy New Year to everyone except Esslinger Engineering. I spread the experience about them anytime i have the opportunity. If you are new to this post, this is what happened to my Esslinger Engineering Engine

Make sure padre sings the hymn while performing the blessing. The power of boost compels you!

 

Good luck, i hope this is finally over for you.

 

Awww you didn’t send esslinger an xmas card then lol

 

I'm really looking forward to your impressions about their 2.5L build. That sounds like it's the beast of beast builds!

 

Feliz Navidad y bueno año nuevo

 

I was going through a gallery folder and found this video of first start on the Esslinger Engineering.

At the time I shared on facebook and everyone told me, pull it and send it back. I was told sounds like a diesel engine.

Esslinger however told me it was camphasers and a tune could sort it. I bet ya tje realized at that time and also knew a tune fix would prevent further piston to.valve contact and cross fingers.

Esslinger Engineering.... not that great

This is first run of the esslinger engineering engine. was told it is cam phasers...... 3,000 miles later I find the cause. they installed pistons backwards...

I just noticed the video i posted 4 days ago has been viewed 5,000 times!!!!

 

C$$,ts

 

I am here to just post for anyone who found this thread ob Google. I bet many have as it ranks top 10 for esslinger engineering....

Esslinger has given me a grand total of zero u.s. dollar in compensation.

over and out

 

i'm glad your new build is working out. way to stick with it. resilient RS owner here folks.

 

⬆!! It’s also a lesson in how not to do business.
Esslinger has been around a very long time. Every business has to eat one once in awhile.
But parts backward…and nothing? That violates more than I can think up.

That about sums it up for me, too.

 

Just posting to give it some attention on a sunday lol!

 

NEVER FORGET!!!

 

I will never let go Jack, I will never let go.

(Kicked Jack off the floating wooden door)

 

Man I still can’t believe they wouldn’t do anything. What a sh$t company. I build everything I have and I would never try them after this.

 

It's ok they clearly didn't want anyone else's business here either. **** Esslinger.

 

I have just gone thru a very bad experience with Esslinger also. Bought a Esslinger STAGE3 short block 2+ years ago, new head, Precision Turbo, etc. etc. Had oil usage issues from day 1. Called Brian and tried all the open crankcase vent, etc etc. suggestions. put the best of everything in the build - intercooler, intake, downpipe, exhaust. Ran like a bat out of hell, but smoke and oil usage. I kept thinking it was a turbo and crankcase ventilation issue. After 2 years of fighting it, pulled the engine and tore it down. Piston ring land and Total Seal ring issues, scarred cylinder walls etc. I tried ordering oversized pistons for the long rod setup and have gotten the runaround for many many weeks. Proprietary to Esslinger Racetek told me, so I had no option without replacing very expensive rods. Never could get a firm delivery date after being told it would only take 3-4 weeks. Called them today and now it will be Christmas or later. I gave up and demanded a refund. Brian blamed it on their supplier, Racetek. I just can’t trust anything at this point and am sure my oil usage issues from day 1 go back to their build. Now I have 4 expensive Callie’s long rods I can’t get pistons for. Going back to standard length rods and pistons from trusted suppliers - so I’ll be out another $2 TO $3K by the time I complete build. At least I’ll know what I have by building myself. Esslinger cost me a lot of $ and wasted time/labor. Buyers beware……. Hope to see refund in my account Monday. If not, I’ll let the entire Ecoboost community know on all social media.

 

Thanks for sharing your ESSLINGER ENGINEERING Experience, I am sure many find this thread when they search google.

My Speedperformance 2.5L has not given any issues. It has been sitting for some time since i need to get a new Aquamist solenoid. I have not gotten around to that yet lol and wife wants me to sell the car lol. Not gona happen lol

 

sounds like the 3 most trusting / reputable / quality shops are:

• speedperformance
• ems
• livernois
