wonder if that would explain the seeming low hp dyno numbers compared to the other guys...the car had to be loosing compression? From what I remember posted here and there the car always had strong TQ, but never hit the HP numbers

 

It definitely must have been hurting the HP, but I think the real issue was the tune. It was pig rich. Trueleo supplied a couple of chips, but they were never right (we didn't have the capability to datalog it, so I'm not blaming them). I have offerred to help Redraif get it going again (by email), but I haven't heard anything. I'd love to see what it could really do.

 

any more

 

both my numbers are on two diffrent motors and the numbers are both NA...there was no boost on the 3.4 as the clutch slipped

 

o ok ill fix it and who makes the turbo kits any more i know it was dves 12

 

thats me

 

Mines so bad it got me a ride in the back of a cop car!!

 

btw i found the roms those numbers were put down at
268 rwhp @ 3904 rpms / 72.6mph
368 rwftlbs @3826 rpms / 71.2 mph

 

hey u have pilsbury listed under the hybrid section his numbers are not hybrids

 

Are you wanting any V6? Or just the 3.1/2.8/3.4 stuff?

Signature is at the bottom.

^ His belongs on the list. We need cars that are deserving of the title. Sub-300hp doesn't cut it. I saw your car in hotrod magazine, pretty cool man.

 

The event was Sept 09... I drove it the rest of the fall and this spring... I drove up to Milan For a Syclone/Typhoon event and had a exhaust Seat come loose on the #1 Exhaust valve.. I "Carefully" drove back 3.5hrs to home on 5cyl. The heads were used and beat up castings when I bought them.. Champion said they'd last 1 season tops.
I go 3yrs out of them.
I purchased new castings from Champion and sent down all my old parts.. They found that 4 valves were bent.. Not sure how long that had been going on.
It runs stronger now with the new heads and non bent valves.
Not had a chance to go back to the track since.. Might make that 9 second pass on pump gas!

A couple pic's and article.

^^^Damn...Your car is ridiculously sexy.

 

Finally found redraif's graph. Sheesh...I knew I remembered seeing some crazy tq numbers... I was considering the Truleo/3.4 for my Fiero and these results always stuck out in my mind... This was the only car I can remember that had "untuned" before and after results w only changing the intake... 35ish ft/lb jump. Seems the hp moved up decent at each rpm point until you reach the higher rpms. No peak increase and no high RPM gain told me I was NOT gonna spend 600.00 for pitiful top end power... Esp when folks were doing the dohc swaps... and the hybrid swaps.... much better results for the $ IMO.

 

I no longer have the car, but I had a decent 3.4. I had posted some desktop dyno numbers. I think it was around the 180hp mark? The gutted v6 seemed faster then the v8 I have now thats fully loaded.

 

481 hp @ 6,200 rpms
438 ftlbs @ 5,300 rpms
iron headed 3.0
