Thanks for nice comments,
I dont want to speculate about power, time will tell, will put the car on the dyno when im finished.
With the greddy turbo the car put down 499whp @ 17psi pump gas, 506whp@15psi E85, 548whp@21psi E85.
The goal with the car is to run a 10 on 1/4 next summer
the LIFT is my best tool

It´s funny, no fd has ever run a 10 here in sweden. Not even with a 899rwhp 20b in it, it was damn close tho a 11 blank. We have the hp but it hasn´t happened yet...
Hope to change that next season!

It's still december and a long time before the track opens here and if i know myself right my goals and expectations will change.. before you can run a 9 you need to run a 10 right?

Word!
So back to us swedes not being able to run 10´s
Fastest fd is ABIEX 20b powered one with a 11.00
Fastest 13b fd ran 11,273...
Hope that Gus and me can make all that change!
My build hasn´t even seen the track yet, nor have Gus´s. This season got pissed away by rain mostly!

Thank you.
Skill is not something you have, it is something you get doing things like this, one year ago i was in your position, then i bought my first welder and here i am. It is all about time and dedication.
don't waste more time, go get one yourself!
it is never to late

Thanks for your quick reply,but I've already tried that.There's some kind of hard
plastic on top of the tial bov and my 1/8npt to -4an fitting doesn't screws in all the
way and I'm afraid that that the plastic part will crack.

And on that note, the OP would have an easier time running a 10.xx with 499rwhp then with his 6xx rwhp "monster" he is trying to build..... I can see it now 11.80 @ 137mph

I knew it was a stupid question.I thought the top side on the tial bov was some kind of hard plastic,but the color had me fooled.To be sure I tried to take a bite
on the top side where the npt fitting screws in and gues what?It's metal.So my problem is solved thanks to YOU.
My kindest regards and I hope you can get in the 10's.

Maybe ya'll need to work on the suspension and driving part.... Horse power is the "easy" part.

Where did you get the really tight aluminum bends in 3" that you welded to the turbo compressor housing?
I need something like this but what I have found so far isn't even close.
Thanks in advance.

your car looked really fast already in the Youtube link
the T-78 didn't look very laggy at all, what RPM does the turbo spool?
you just need to work on your launch that's it!
i'm really suprised no one got 10's
perhaps it has more to do with suspension setup and a good 60 ft' etc then it does just raw power?

Just bought a diff, and stronger axles are on the list
