wow no body has posted on here for awhile anything new to your systems yet guys i still haven't installed my kit yet from goose goose not until i get back from the desert huh can't wait but i'm about to install a authentic nismo v3 front bumper with nismo sides and ings rear

 

Im also wondering how's everyones kit is. Im thinking sts or the bp midmount kit for my christmas present.

 

Whats up guys. My new build should be done here shortly, it has to be ready for a Show/event in Dec. We hit a few snags along the way, and when the car is debuted you guys will see why. Its coming along and is gonna be pretty bad ***. Sorry for the delay on the reveal, it will be worth it.

Unfortunately, I'm back over here in this **** hole country, so i won't even get to be there for the event. Maybe some of you guys can go and tell me what you think of the final product. The car will be posted on here prior to the show/event.

Later fellas

 

Yea blink I know the plan. Def gonna b sick. I was about to steal ur mishimoto lol

 

Anyone running HFC without them blowing out? I'm about to switch out my TPs for Berks HFC with my new tune... I can't stand the smell any longer. Are the HFC in danger of blowing out at 8-9 psi?

 

what show/event?

 

yes it will blow eventually but then again, I'm back on stock CAT and about 10k+ miles on them without any issue.. Try the xyz pipe with CAT. Goosegoose said he saw a noticable perfomance and the cat is way back so the chance is blowing is reduced.

 

 

Did you ask Bobby about it? Not sure if its still there, or if its sold, but we aren't using it now, we had some clearance issues, so something a little more custom was made

str8dum1 - Not sure if i'm supposed to say as this project is being kept secret until the car is revealed, but i don't know how the show would give anything away. The Event/Show is PRI (Performance Racing Industries). As of now, the car is scheduled to be in a certain companies booth on display. Pretty Sh1tty that I won't get to be there. Hope someone gets to go check things out.

 

Nah didn't ask. Depending on where this show is all go with bobby and ben and take piks. Shoot may even drive it.......Haha jk

 

thats cool, i was mainly wondering if it was a show in the carolinas. PRI is in orlando, little too far.

good luck with the project!

 

I think I found a solution. I bought ultimate racing hfc's (http://www.ultimate-racing.com/Produ...low-Cats.shtml) because they were local and I heard good things. I know they might be a bit pricey but they sound amazing with our setup. They are 200cels each and the flow is also good and no rasp or any other funny noises. I will post a video with the new sound. The only other pipe I have which is not stock is a Nismo 3inch y-pipe. These cats also look promising in terms of durability 700whp (i hope). I defiantly need a re-tune now.

 

hey guys does anybody know what kind and size of turbo do the stock sts turbo kits come with cuz i purchased the goose goose turbo and it might be to big right now with my stock engine probably considering more turbo lag. Can anybody help with this.

Precision Turbo 6265 – 62MM Billet Aluminum Compressor Wheel – New Gapless Seals
This turbo was very recently serviced under warranty by Precision Turbo on May 11, 2010. For all intents and purposes it is in perfect condition. This is a Precision 6265 with a 62MM billet aluminum compressor, and brand new gapless oil seals. This unit has a ball-bearing CHRA. It spools faster and makes more power than the standard turbo STS includes with their kits. Precision Turbo rates this turbo at 670HP.

 

check out the boosted performance threads. they use a single 6262 and can show you power curves.

i think they were doing 400/400 at ~8psi. If you are getting a smaller turbo, a 5857 with the big A/R would be a good choice for a stock motor!

 

Stick with the turbo for now because it is definitely a better one than the stock STS. Trust me, if there was a huge lag difference between the stock STS turbo and the 6265 then I don’t think Goosegoose will even consider using that. Goosegoose went through many turbo and I now that drivability is important to him. His car is daily driven and he wants a turbo/setup that is enjoyable on the street.

 

oh ok lol. so would yall recommend going back to staight pipes than my kinetix hfc. would turboxs test pipes be good for my application i had them before the hfc cuz of the rasp lol.. but i if need to have them then i will repurchase them. huh i have five more months till my turbo kit is even close to being installed i can't wait!!!

 

Test Pipe will give you better perfomance as long as you can stand the smell and rasp. I couldnt so I went back to stock CAT.

 

how bad is the rasp? I also see it was already asked but not answered how come no one is running ART pipes with this set up?

 

/\ Goosegoose was about too but his motor blew so he didn’t get a chance to install them. I would if someone give them to me for free.. lol J/K If I had the extra cash then I would definitely try it.

 

oh ok good stuff man thanks atheng
