Here is graph everyone wants to see.
Red line turbo
Dot line blower.

I don't have a tq number for turbo setup. I just drove the car home over 100 miles drives like stock.

Damn you gotta love that 100hp gain in the midrange. That's gonna hit good!

Looks like it might have made a few more HP if he had pulled it a bit higher with the turbos..

Either way, youre gonna have a blast with it..

Time for some more street vids...

According to my butt dyno on the low boost setting the car feels faster. I'm really enjoying the car, cutouts open the car is insane, closed I have to keep looking at my tach as I think it stalls lol

I would love to see the torque curves overlayed. Are you planning to take it back and dyno it again?

StealthFRC

yea i wish he could of gotten tq but oh well. no plan to go to another dyne this year, winter is upon us and i just don't have the time.

I'll look for it next year, hopefully by then i'll have some graphs of my own.

ajrothm

Sounds good with the cutouts open... I'd drive it like that..

StealthFRC

Yup I do lol, then on way home close them and cruise. Loving the setup, wish I did it in the first place.

StealthFRC

Smoove

Amen to that.

Glad it's working out dude, glad you love it.

on low boost setting, 2nd to 3rd gear.... remember i have the zr1 tr6060 gearing, 342 and the 345's that i think are 27.5" tall... also shifting early since I'm still getting used to the setup... shifting at about 6k redline is 6800

Accelerating hard!

Well sadly I think my "noisy" lifter decided to take out my motor... So car is down until I come up with a solution... There is magnetic metal all thruout the motor... Still runs fine and had good oil pressure so maybe I can get away with a "simple" rebuild instead of all new parts again... Time will tell, trying to figure out if I want to take on te task of pulling motor or have a shop do it but that's big $$$ that I'm sick of spending so I may just do it myself and pull the motor from the top which ive heard of people doing?

TracyRR

oh crap.... sorry about the bad news

Suck to hear. Big metal or small metal? IE: if it's pieces of lifter it probably didn't go through the bearings. May be able to get away with just pulling the heads (and probably cam).

StealthFRC

Big and small. To do it right I think I'll have to pull motor to clean and inspect, same with turbos and all oil lines

slow ride

Pulling the engine out the top isn't that bad. You can leave the drivetrain in also and just drop down the subframe till the damper clears the rack when coming forward. I would pull the heads first as it makes getting the bellhousing bolts easy anyway. That way you can look the lifters and cam some before removing everything. Sucks man, but at least tis the season for it to happen. Let us know what the parts were, etc.

Damn sorry to hear this. Only good thing is it's coming up on winter instead of spring.

StealthFRC

yea, I'm just sick of dumping money into the car. it sucks everything is worthless at this point so there is no point in parting the car out.... otherwise i would and move on to bigger and better things but at this point I'm kind of stuck and pretty have to fix what i have
