Like str8 put up...

just did 540rwhp @ 14psi on 93 octane about 2 months ago (almost 10K on the setup) and gawd knows what the clutch was up too....it died days later lol.

Not bad for stock heads/cams on basically the stage 1 setup

Tom

 

you always have to add that lil disclaimer.

i remember you saying you have it tuned for race gas and just so-so for pump. Is 14psi all you can run on pump before you start knocking?

 

ninja edit: nevermind...

 

can you not see the graph? its posted 2 times in this thread. The green line on that graph is teh pump gas hp curve

 

Tom i know you stated you are running the SP stage 1 block, any other add ons? (head stud kit, gasket, etc) mind giving us a full break down please

 

oh yeah there it is it looks like its fully spooling up closer to 4200 rpms though...

 

Str8,
I have had it as high as 18psi, but the plugs showed some signs of light detonation. So I don't like to run it up over 17psi on pump. Larry has it tuned to start adjusting the timing and fuel at anything above 15.5psi....

Will most likely do cams over winter, so I know larry will adjust the tune around more, maybe give me 18psi to use on pump

But 15psi is usually plenty more than for most cars up here


Aced,
I have L19 headstuds, and HKS Headgaskets. (Rest is pauter rods, weisco pistons, ACL bearings, Rev-Up oil pump). Nothing fancy. Still 3.5L


G,
The car spools almost...what 1000rpm faster on the street lol (yes even though the mustang dyno is load bearing). And since this dyno I have swapped out the 3.5FD for a 3.3FD, that brought it down about another 200rpm.

In 1-3rd I get full boost by like 3400-3800rpm'ish.......5,6 - like 2800rpm lol (Thank you stock cams.....but they DIE above 6200rpm pretty bad)


Tom

 

thanks for the info tom, much appreciated!

 

Ah ha, there it is again! LOL

Could you detect the knock on your EMS or only by looking at the plugs? No meth, correct?

 

It was real mild knock. Doubtful the ecu was even registering it. Couldn't feel it while driving (I know what it feels like when its extreme...had a z31t that let go cause of it lol). You could tell on the plugs though (it was actually a little heated debate on if it was knock).....so we error'd on the side of caution and I back it down a touch.

Tom

P.S. - hey I'm consistent lol.

 

-hey Tom , what bore size are this wiseco Pistons in your block, are they 95.00mm standard, or 96.00 0.020 mm over??

- I'm asking because i'm right now in the process of built mine, and I was thinking on put 95.50 standard or if is going to be better to get it this 0.020 over, to the 96.00mm bore .Thank you

 

For the sake of a better fit, do .020 over. I did 95.5 at the time, but had hardly any miles on the block.

 

This things weak sauce!!

Keep an eye out for this bad boy to have new Billet Precision turbos, stronger clutch, and ProEFI Flex Fuel for e85 capabilities!!

Reid

 

Any sneak peak pics of the turbo upgrade/revision?

 

why does the dyno stop at 6k, or did I miss that?

 

I believe its because he is using stock cams which I'm guessing stop making power after 6K.

 

Stock cams are the answer. We are working that issue out with Tom as well

Reid

 

Yup was the stock cams. Power falls like a rock above 6k (actually 6200rpm)...just used this part for display purposes.....

cams going in, in a few weeks. Still cold here, haven't seen my car in 3 months.

Tom

 

Sure!! Tom's preview:

Billet 5557 or 5857 Twin turbos (still undecided)


Cams (example dyno below with and without cams)


Southbend 6 puck clutch


ProEFI Flex Fuel Sensor (for runnning E85)


Zeitronix Ethanol percentage analyzer in either RED or BLUE display (for ProEFI 48 units)




SP Diff Brace (not sure if he's getting this or not but I hope he is!!)\


aaannnd hopefully one of these!!


Installed on a Supra as an example



Reid

 

Lets hope Thom picks up all that stuff. That would be nice to see the before and after dyno's with the Exhaust dumps. Curious to see how well they perform on a VQ35 with TT's.
