Here is a before and after picture... Almost done with the after....

Old set up used a N/A cam with 1.6 rockers and a stock motor with 8psi of boost.

New Set Up: completely built motor for boost, lower compression, Dart heads, turbo cam, 1.6 rockers, HSR intake, 950 C ECM, K-member, Drag brakes, Spon Torque arm, manaul steering, TH350 tranny w/2800 stall.

any before and after numbers? that hsr looks great: how much boost will you be running on the new setup?

 

15 psi, No I never put it on a dyno with old setup.... Not done tuning new setup, right now I'm tuning the part throttle cruise.

 

That looks great!

Sounds like shes gonna run like a bat outta hell. What kind of power are you hoping for?

 

I want 500 at the wheels....

 

that should be no problem with what you have done.

 

My real goal is to run low 10's in 1/4, I keep teasing my wife that I might run the car on "PINKS". Since this is my project car and not my daily driver, I wouldn't be to to upset if I lost....

what size charger you runnin ?
is it intercooled ?

 

T70..... Yes it's intercooled. I just had to upgrade to 65lb injectors because my 42lb's were going static at 14psi and 5500 rpm. I'm gonna try for 16 - 17 psi on pump gas.

I have so many questions for you!!! Where in south Florida are you???!!! Is the turbo actually a garret? Where did you get the injectors? Did you build the kit yourself?

 

I think he has a post on his build from before also.

Here are some pic's i have of his car.

Dude , I need to bug you about your intercooler . Like where did you get it ??? I need one and , am affriad to just plop cash down for one ...not sure if it fits , etc. My turbo is being put in as we speak ...any help would be appreciated .... Sorry for the hyjack ..NICE SETUP !

 

Hey Ray,
I was curious if you felt that using the stock intake was being a restriction on your boost?
Have you had the car dynoed yet ?
I was thinking about going holley stealth just for ease of switching out injectors..

Rob,

With a boosted least of your worries should be a intake,heads,etc. Depends on your HP goals and how much $$ you want to spend. Id say stick with the stock intake for now. Invest in a GOOD fuel system and tuning stuff 1st.

Some verry good reading for you.

When i was looking at the pic of you're new setup i seen the low-mount alternator bracket, what brand is that? do you have a part # and a price? thanks

Brandon

 

What are you going to do with the air intake to the turbo? I also have the Commander 950, how much timing are you going to run under boost? What is your compression and are the dart heads iron or aluminum?

 

wow.. clean setup man.. i must like it cause i got wood.. j/k she must haul some serious ***.. post up some numbers when you get them..

 

that thig is sick. whats your compression ratio? where did you find that turbo?

 

Brandon, PM sent about alternator and bracket......

D's89IROC, As far as the intercooler, I removed the AC condenser and measured to see the biggest intercooler I could find..... It fit perfect, but had to do alittle trimming to get the the inlet / outlet pipes to connect. Check ebay there is tons...


Imthebriman, I'm in Pembroke Pines. I got my new 65 lb Bosch injectors from Musclemotors.com, after I got these I found a place that sells 62lb injectors for much cheaper (Oh Well). As far as the Turbo kit, I did eveything myself expect the Turbo header (BDDS or BBDS) the Turbo is a Master Power T70 with a .96 exhaust housing.

 

Lotek, I got the turbo from "MikeTurboinc.com" , the compression if I remember right is around 8.7-1.

Calebzman, the heads are the Dart Iron Eagle Plat. cast iron w/200cc runners.
