87 TII, purchased from salvage, had injector fire, built it myself, all poor boy upgrades. New 550's, and 750's secondaries, TB mod, no emissions or bac, no omp, ported wastegate, and turbo manifold to equal size, removed twin scroll (cut it out and welded the hole shut), 3" downpipe to Y, ghetto tid, 111k stock port, no supporting electronics. 1st pull was to fuel cut, 183 hp 6psi 3rd gear. Remaining pulls are with fcd. started at 4500, and went to 6k, ~10psi, afr 11.25 all day long... http://videos.streetfire.net/video/7...090105c998.htm

 

And the first rotary I ever heard with a rod knocking. The hood prop rod.........

 

Good Numbers
!!!!!!

 

Not bad at all.

 

Also has Walboro, & Mallory regulator.

 

Man, I bet you are just pig rich ...

Did you have a wideband on it?

 

Yeah, pig rich, and used a wideband, about 4000 or so AFR dipped below 12 to 11.25 and stayed there. even when I boosted more it barely budged, to like 11.28. Rich is safe, lean is bad, I know there is more hp in there but its not about hp, its about getting to drive it! It pulls hard and I only push the boost to ~10psi, then feather the pedal. I have a manual boost controller, my foot!

 

Uh.. I run at low 11s. Thats not pig rich by any means.

 

I don't mean "rich" in a bad way, but in a safe way. They guy running the dyno thought we were crazy to be excited at 11.25 AFR, but he had never dyno'd or worked on a rotary!
