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.

Default 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" />

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?

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?

because the compression is so low, the cam is really pretty smooth, no startup/idle or restart issues and only a very slight shake at idle

guess you were happy, with these crappy gas prices at your compression you can run some regular unleaded. $1.50 vs $1.70.

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.
