Power shouldn't the issue here but rather traction

Fuel system still in progress then onto turbo system

good set of shocks goes a long ways, put 2700 wheel down on the 325 50 15 street rs in october on a dusty runway

stevieturbo

What sort of 1/2 or more did that create ?

And is soft or hard shocks/springing preferred for such runs ?

ace32x

we run pretty soft springs. that was my last pass in october was a 223 pass.

Bunch of updates

Fuel pump was determined be spun too fast by oil pump and aerate the fuel/ explode. Rather than exploring a cam driving fuel pump a Holly VR2 with a kenny bell booster was chosen. Old parts sent to Waterman and awaiting new pump to arrive to be installed. Fuel tank/ Lines/ Filter all complete

Pipes fabricated for turbos sit too low to the ground as round pipe was used in the bends (a third party fabricator was hired for the job, he was given pictures and informed to provide as much clearance as possible), fabricator made aware of the problem and offered to redo the setup at a 50% labor charge as he states he was never given explicit instruction to use an oval pipe. The Mechanic working on the car will weld in the proper oval pipes to gain back 2 inches of ground clearance.

Turbo side exhaust will need to be redone, they don't sit center in the quarter panel openings

Tanks and coolers were mounted for turbo oil and coolant

Air tank mounted for boost control




Things still to do:
Mount power steering
Plumb drysump, install remote filter
Plumb turbo oil and coolant
Finalize wiring harness
Rebuild axles
Install direct port Nitrous/ Meth

Hmmmm...interesting. First time stopping back into this thread in a while. Definitely curious to see how that turbo location works out in regards to exhaust pulse/distance etc. Also, I'd be VERY concerned with what those f'ers are going to pick up from the low pressure area under the car from the tracks surface. Just my internet $.02...

More updates






With all of the pipes now being ovalized they tuck up much closer to the body, there is one section which dips about an inch below the frame but this was the best that could be done given the size of the Garret turbos. Next having to redo the side exit exhaust, will have pics when that's done

To compare this how the hired fabricator ran the pipes and then wanted to charge to redo it...

It was exhausting but all pipes now welded, painted and wrapped. Onto plumbing and the engine bay.
