Gotta love the boys in Garwood.
They set me up 4 years ago, I still call them to thank them at least twice a year.

More about the car.

It is a forged 347 with Cartek heads and there 2XB cam. I think the specs for the cam are on their site. The Motor has forged pistons and rods. I would call Cartek for the specs on that. I would love to give you the timing at WOT but I really can’t do that. I have been running the car on the street with HP tuners, logging some runs to see how it performs on the street to make it better. Trying to get it to run the best it can. As you all know, dyno is one thing, but street and track are an entirely different ballgame.

It took a lot to get the car where it is now. I would say the biggest thing that helped us with the tune and maintain boost was the AMS-1000 boost controller. It was expensive but way worth the money.

Yes the car is low but the APS kit does not hang down too much lower than the oil pan. My car has been dropped so low that I only have a ½ inch clearance from the fender to the wheel and I have not scratched anything yet, but I do drive slowly over bumps. The kit maybe hangs down ¼ of an inch lower than the oil pan, but not lower than the frame. I don’t think that would be an issue. APS build a well thought out kit. All the pieces were labeled. Nothing was missing from the kit. Not a single bolt and everything was polished with nice welds.

Thanks for everyone's kind words. We are going to play with it some more. I would like to put in a 3bar map and tune for 3bar and really have some fun!!!!

Adam

Just amazing guys!! I would assume Cartek is using a forward split pattern cam with this package??? The 2X cams show 224/228

Maybe not, the old 222/228 115 'blower' cam I used to run came out of a 122mph 1/8 mile 347 TT car.

The cam above is forward split. 222/228 is forward and 228/222 is reverse. You lost me on this one.. Please explain..

I know the difference, the 222/228 was in a turbo car that ran pretty darn well as opposed to what people think. If I explained it I'd have to charge you for it

I didn't see the "2XB" cam specs on their web site. I don't blame them - they have nothing to gain by leaking out build info to competitors.

Just messing with you Vince, its the only cam he had so he stuck in there and it made good power - wasnt really chosen. Two big turbos (T67) on a little 346 and just about anything that opens the valves will work pretty well. Sometimes the overall combination is more important then having the perfect cam.

Adam here are the dyno videos.

This is the 749 RWHP run. ---> http://www.cartek.net/videos/AdamTT_749.wmv


And this is the 907 RWHP run. ---> http://www.cartek.net/videos/AdamTT_907.wmv


The 907 RWHP run spun the tire on the dyno.

I know you were just joking.. Your advice is VERY valuable though and MANY of us respect you. I agree the entire combo needs to work together.

Big turbo(s) standard split or a single pattern is fine or a single pattern, small turbos maybe a reverse split. I'm not so sure about the respect part lol.

100% correct, that's always been the recipe for high power and torque and the right cam spec is crucial for a twin turbo engine.
