Kg parts fuel rails
Bosch 1600 cc secondaries
YAW Power 1000cc primaries

Alex Rodriguez 08-29-10 10:26 PM

So the upcoming weeks will be very busy for me and tight. With sevenstock around the corner and a big to do list I will be busy.
On my to do list are the following-
-Redo my oil cooler and v mount ducting
-tune the stance gr+3s
-install a new heavy duty clutch

For the clutch I am looking into ACT 6 puck unsprung, I ran a 4 puc unsprung on my fc and loved it, but since I daily my fd I rather not put stress on my worn knees lol

What made you decide to use 1680cc bosch and 1000cc ID??? The bosch secondaries will still need resistors and the primaries are over kill and will now need a new rail as well. All of this could have been made simple with OEM 550cc and ID 2200 secondaries, thats enough for 700hp. And why a 044 for 400whp?

I don't get it...:scratch:

Alex Rodriguez 08-30-10 12:19 AM

Well this set up is fine for 500+ I made 468 whp with a similar set up but I ran a aeromotive 1000 pump. I don't want such a bulky pump anymore. I am also running a 044 or magma pump because of the size and simplicity of a drop in set up I am doing. For the motor I will be opening up sometime in march because I am going bridgport.

Now on my set up now all I want is 400 whp for the avg track size I am running out here in Cali. Overkill for primaries .....of course but I am not installing them yet. I also have a modified primary rail with 850s that will be in place of the 1000cc until the tear down.

Alex Rodriguez 08-30-10 12:21 AM

Oh forgot to mention thanks Jonathan for the hook up!

Alex Rodriguez 08-30-10 12:37 AM
