You might also look into STI/WRX stuff since they can be manual AWD. I agree about getting a slick on there. Let me try a more subtle approach....NEEDS 2 STEP!!!! you need to leave in boost. I hear not wanting to spend 4500 bucks but don't think you need to to get your 9.99.

Cool truck. Fugly, but cool. Really surprised that you're spinning with those rear tires and AWD. I was expecting a much more aggressive 60.

my $5 says that leaving on a two step with better rear tires and maybe a simple 50-75 shot on a steering wheel or shifter button, and then rev 3rd gear to 7200rpm to do better in 4th would get you in the 9s easily for like <$700

Your such a ******* troll. Did you really need to say it was fugly? I think it looks great but my taste isn't near as vanilla as yours.

As others have said I'd get a 2step and try to leave on more boost.

If u can fit a 26" tire with 3.73 considering 0 tire growth 7000 rpm would net you 145 mph. If you stepped up with a bigger turbo and really pushed it 7500 rpm would get you 156 mph. I know all about launching with a 6 speed turbo car and the most important thing is getting off the line without a huge bog or massive spin. No way thats going to happen with 3.08 gears even off a 2 step at a 6000 rpm dump with boost.

Your 3.08s with a 26" tire will go 176 mph @ 7000 rpm and 188 @ 7500. Probably a good gear for mile events though. Play around with this calculator http://fitbodyshop.net/gear/index.php

He needs wheels speed off the line to have a pass. I feel the pain of trying to row a 9 and keep it in budget!

Are you opposed to a dry 50 shot for 3rd and 4th? Other than that on3 does have a billet 84mm. with a larger turbine that will fit the same footprint and prob give you the few MPH you seek

Quite simply put, launch ******* hard.

If one axle is spinning too much, then there must be a centre diff issue, ie it is slipping or something. What sort of centre diff is it ?

275/45/17 is 26.7 tall. Try a 275/40/17 there an inch shorter. I would definitely put on a meth kit to help with AITs , plus a bigger timing window.

Lost my mind. They are 275/40. Will try to update previous.

New slave is in and got the truck home at least.

If I were to jump to 3.73 it would be much easier since can get that gear for both diffs... Which tire? M&H has a 26 8.5 in a 17. Guess could switch wheel size too just need to clear brakes.

With how expensive it is for you to swap rear ends I don't think that's best. I think you'd be better off with a smaller tire and figuring out how to make more power so that your gears work for you. You'd be happier and go much faster

Why not use a taller front gear with a shorter tire, is your TCASe the one with the Viscous diff in it, as I recall the Typhoon had issues ruining the fluid under hard power than lost a lot of front pull.

They made a case without the viscous diff, its in the standard trucks, same number no limited slip solid lock between front and rear axle. its in the full time 4wd trucks.
There was also a unicorn combo that had a thorsen style center, can't remember the application though...

Randy ring and pinion can match gears between many axles.. Stock early ford broncos had a small split from the factory the front were a small bit taller than the rear so they were controllable in slick conditions, it meant that running them on asphalt dry wasn't a great idea if you wanted to turn, they would bind a bit,,, , but for all out pull in a straight line, they would really dig in...

Here is another T-56 AWD build using a single PTE 6766 that ran 10.99@130 on 16 psi. Aluminum Bowtie V6 though. http://www.syty.net/forums/drivetrain-tech/84883-tranzilla-magnum-6-speed-awd-build-thread.html

-E85

-Vette t56
-built 8.8 in the rear, good drive shafts, 3.08 gears
-QA1 Coilovers front 550# springs
-Caltracs, Beltech 3" leafs, additional 2" block rear - beltech shocks
-25" ET streets on rear and street tires up front for now
-C5 brakes all around
-2step @ 4500 so far leaving on @ 10psi.
-3200lbs without me


Made 770 all wheel horse power on a dynojet at 19psi. Have run higher at the track but doesn't really pick up mph. The turbo and cam don't match.

Best ET 10.60 @ 136mph 1.71 60' with 3500DA (60 gets better every outing but mph always 135-139)

Stick shift truck with 99% street time. Spool time matters. Big frame t6 stuff will not fit. Not sure if a t4 BW would.

Been itching to upgrade the turbo but am really limited on space. I always end up back at the pt7675 ball bearing being the best (and most expensive) option. That might get me another 100 hp.

No particular goals. Want more power. Don't think a 9.99 is going to happen but a few more tenths and another 10 mph would be awesome.

So what do I do? Real turbo? Plate kit and just spray it? Auto would be far faster... but its the only running manual awd ls I know of.

Thanks

I cant help you other than suggesting twin turbos and an upgraded IC. Threadstone makes a better one that isn't too expensive and only 3." Thick. I like the truck! Any videos?
