neat idea!

 

good price

 

Yeah....my buddy hooked me up. He told me when I go turbo he'd give me a good deal on a BNR turbo he has.

 

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.

Wow that hoodscoop is crazy looking. I want to see it once its painted and finish. Otherwise good stuff man.

 

It will look something like the one on my buddy's car. My scoop is a little bigger.

 

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

 

Better get a fan shroud on there. That thing will overheat pretty rapidly if you are not at freeway speeds.

Or an efan, of course.

 

I'm hoping for 210 - 215 whp. I will get it dynoed once I have everything done.

Here is my list of mods:

Camden S/C with 9psi pulley
A/M V8 fuel injection setup
Bonez resonated midpipe
Racing Beat y-pipe with stock mufflers (buying A/M mufflers this week)
Grip Force stage two clutch kit
Paxton fuel regulator
84 RX7 distributor
Accel 8.8 mm wires
MSD coils
Custom cold air intake (3.5" piping with AEM filter)
3.8L Ford Taurus (4000 cfm) cooling fan
Hood scoop

Future mods:

MSD box
Koyo radiator
Body kit
New wheels
Custom interior

 

You need to modify the mech advance on the dizzy for best performance.

 

Dizzy?

 

nice setup u gonna keep it the same color

 

nice man its an awesome build! you gotta keep us posted specially when you get this thing dynoed i wanna see what it puts down!

 

Nice work- keeping an eye peeled for that dyno- you paid less for your entire car than I did for just my s/c setup you bastard! Congrats, man.

 

distributor!

 

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 ?

 

Yeah....I like the dark blue.

 

lol.....my buddy hooked me up. He is still giving me parts. Just gave me a racing beat y-pipe this weekend.

 

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.

 

Hey man I was wondering if you had any more updates for this, It's definitely something im considering doing just wondering if you have any dyno numbers or anything new for us here at the club.
