Re: LS1M Production Kit #1 arrived today.
full street trim exept for rear slicks, full interior ac/stereo etc.
600 rwhp, pump gas, somewhere around 15psi on the small turbo
10 second pass and 130mph trap with the above is my goal for my daily driver <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
the install will begin soon as the weather clears and i have instructions to follow. but the tuning will go on for the better part of the spring i imagine building up the boost as i go.
i will probably have to swap the 42# injectors out for larger before its all done..
then if i get bored with that, there is always the big turbo <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> and race gas.

Re: LS1M Production Kit #1 arrived today.
did you dyno the motor NA?
I am curious as to the power output of a HCI 8.75:1 comp car <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
thanks,
Chris

Re: LS1M Production Kit #1 arrived today.
yes i did
i dynoed it with longtube headers, random tech cat back, no cats, ls6 intake 85mm maf, ported tb, 30* timing, no knock through that driveshaft and 12 bolt with the 3.73 gear.. oh and a lid with no filter
did 301 rear wheel standard correction (sae?) on the same dyno that a bone stock ls1 dyno's around 300 rear wheel on. and i ran a 13.1 at 108 like that as well on a 2.0 60'
..so im basically looking to double my output.. hence the 15psi <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
in all fairness though if i spent any time at all to try to tune it to run n/a im sure i cold have pulled another 20 horse out of the computer and with a hotter spark plug than tr6 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Re: LS1M Production Kit #1 arrived today.
it will spin first from a roll with street tires but wont chirp second if you just stab the gas.. its pretty darn sluggish, but thats about to change. install starts tomorrow afternoon

Re: LS1M Production Kit #1 arrived today.
MIGHTYMOUSE, did you get my email? Let me know what you want for the turbo. If the price is right the damage won't be a big deal. Hows the install coming with the kit?

Re: LS1M Production Kit #1 arrived today.
I notice that cam has a good idling 115 lsa but the durations are up there. Does that thing drive well or is it one that you have to learn? Lifts are relatively low so I assume that it doesn't have a lot of valvetrain chatter, or does it?

Re: LS1M Production Kit #1 arrived today.
from what i understand, eventually all of the discharge side will be silicone, not just that one red tube, it will shave some weight, simplify installation and look coooool <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
fuel system pics are on my sig page
-8 fuel pressure line, speed inc regulator, rails and filter, -6 return line, twin gss340 walbro in tank pumps green top 42# svo injectors if they hold. switch to those 55's if not.
