Hey all it has been awhile since my last update. I wasn't able to make it down to NC to work on my ride until today. My buddy got 95% of the bugs worked out. The car runs great and holds 8.5 psi all the way to redline....I'm currently running a 9 psi pulley. I have a 10 psi pulley but I dont think I'm going to use it. We started doing a bit of the body work today. As you can see in the pic we are molding a hood scoop directly over the S/C. My custom cold air intake works great but I want to keep the engine bay as cool as possible. I also added a 4000 cfm cooling fan which I will swap onto my Koyo radiator once I get it. Well enjoy the pics and video clip. Sorry the clip is kinda fuzzy...time for a better camera I guess.

thats awesome man! great job on the intake and everything on it, do you know with the 8.5psi your pushin on it how much horsepower you have to the wheels? or maybe an estimate of what you think it might be? definitely great job man

Got to drive my car for the first time today but ran into a fuel issue. I think I have a bad injector. Will try to post a video once I get the issue resolved but for now here are a few pics I took today.
Or an efan, of course. |

doesnt have a dizzy ? Its crank angle sensor. (edit: ah just saw in the pic he had changed to a dizzy setup)
1stgen8, what ecu are you running for the fuel then ? ? Im assuming a modified stock turbo ecu ? Nice setup, will be good seeing the range of power your getting. Any idea or your intake temps with no intercooler ? |

Any idea or your intake temps with no intercooler ? The stock NA ecu is still in the car but the stock fuel setup has been pulled. Years ago when my buddy bought the s/c he also bought an aftermarket V8 fuel injection kit. I forgot to take a pic of the black box (in the glove box) that controls the fuel and can't remember the name right now. I will ask my buddy and let you know. Not sure of the intake temps but my cold air setup is helping. When I took the car out this weekend and ran it hard a few times the intake pipe was barley warm when I checked it. It was roughly 70-75 degrees out. I also think the 4000 cfm cooling fan I pulled from a Ford Taurus is helping. The whole time I was driving the prosport oil & water temp gauges did not pass 180 degrees. This was before we cut the hood for the scoop. |
