well, finished putting the turbos back in on thursday and friday. then clead the car up a bit. loaded it on the tralor. headed to East Side Performance on sat morning to meet up with the guys to fire the car. we primed it a little, then fired it off. it ran great(even with the old tune) Bled the coolant and ran it for a few min. Then strapped it down and ran it on the dyno for a couple mile(lower speeds, do to rain and wet roads with slicks and skinnies)
Kevin threw a quick tune in her to make it idle with the new cam( got it perfect on the first shot!Thanks kevin).
Then we thought we would do a few 1/2 thro passes to make sure it was good. 1/2 gas it mad a little over 300 rwhp(i only ran it to 4k rpm)
next run was a 1/2 gas to 5k, but around 3-4k boom!!!!! smoke and anti freez all over my clean car! Shut it down to find im an idiot and the upper radiator hose was rubbing the water pump pully! My bad! called 5 diferent places with no luck. so we found a nice pc of chromolly pipe and put it in the worn spot as a temp! thanks for the pipe ken.
Running again. so this next pass was a 3/4 gas to 5k rpm. around 6psi 3/4 gas it made 500 with a bottomed out af!
So we left it run on the dyno for a little while. then loaded it up. took it home, threw the nose back on and lights back in. changed the oil, cleaned the smeg off it and took it out. pull into a lot to meet a couple friends and boom, more smoke and smeg all over my car AGAIN!!!!! get out looking around finaly found a stripped hose clamp that held my temp sens on let go. fixed that and put a couple hundered miles on the car sat and sunday!
seems to be running good and man does the cam sound good threw the cutouts!!!
Thanks alot guys for all the help! EAST SIDE was great and helped me out like you wouldnt belive! as did a few friends. thanks to all, cant wait till the end of the week when we strap it down with a bit more boost!!!!

I can't wait to see what that monster makes when we turn it up.

500 HP barely getting on it is insane.

I was just glad to see that it is showing some serious potential.

See you later this week.

 

so what is your final CR and cam specs


looks like youll be needitg a new clutch soon if you havent got one already.

good luck when you turn it up.

 

Impressive indeed.....

 

very nice

 

Man that's impressive, this year is going to rock for the FI crowd.

good job dude, you got all that done fast.

 

Thanks Kevin. hope your ready to work your tuning magic. I'll work on getting the boost up a bit.
I did a new clutch alreay. I still need a new tq arm, should be in today i hope old bmr one cracked!, new drive shaft, i twisted the old one, one new rear hal(set me the wrong one)and cranck the boost. i hoping for 600, then i'll draw the line for a little while to get the suspention tuned in and stuff.
Spec st 5 with new pads and a fancy prs plate. i dont know for sure but Pete from spec said it will hold!
Cam is a rev split with a little more then what most are running with turbos, but what the hell we'll see if i made a good choice.
New pistions, berings, arp bolts and studs, stock rods and crank, heads redone,budget build up. I did most of the R+R on it, and all the turbo R+R. East Side built the motor and helped me with anything i didnt know or couldnt do. and Kevin NoGo from esp is my tuner.
I'll let you know how we make out with the new boost and tune. But she already has some miles on it and as long as the snow stops here today i'll have it out again tonight!!!

 

oh yhea, i got my 2 step back. i tried it yesterday in my driveway, once at 3,200 it worked good. then went to 4,300 and blew the tires off. dont want to go higher yet. want it running right first. but it works!

 

2 step worked awsome how many people do u know can practice lauching in their driveway ( just hope the marks go away before papa noyes gets home) ouch

 

Sounds great I bet you will hit a 9.xx this year!

 

Turbo, that was funny yesterday. car did hook well. papa noyes will be ok with it, but i do have a week till he gets back.
PSJ. i hope you are right. im mainly hoping just to go faster then last year and i'll be happy!
