I meant as in fuel type.


e85?

91 octane with water/alcohol

engine management?

At the begining of the Video it says Haltech E6K on pump gas.

:rofl: passed that FB like it was standing still

Nice. Looks like it goes pretty good...

I wanna drive on a track. :(

Track takes a lot of work. Nothing like 10 minutes above 5k rpms at WOT.

We added a 3.5" midpipe/downpipe, a smaller Garrett FMIC, new bushings, an inconel LIM heatshield, and a few other goodies. Turbo also smoked itself running a turbo blanket that time around. What works on the street, doesn't always work at the track.. Going back soon for more fun....

the feedback that comes from the track is priceless.

And what do you mean by the turbo smoked itself with a turbo blanket..? IT ran hot because of the blanket and went kaput?

I am interested in how the turbo went out as well. By all the heat?

Yes, the turbo blanket contains too much heat, and the turbo cooked itself. If you look around the single turbo section there are other people reporting the same thing. Turbo blankets were designed for diesel engines that run considerably cooler.

What A/R turbine housing are you using here?

Its using a 1.15.

I wouldn't recommend that size for a smaller track like this on an FC engine, unless you have all your ducks in a row. As in; full ignition, big exhaust, divided turbo turbo manifold with the correct size tubing, and a engine with great compression.

We did a bunch more mods, going back out tomorrow. Got another FD we built going with too...

What do you consider a big exhaust?

What would you say is the proper sized turbine housing for a car that will see street duty, tight race tracks, as well as tracks like VIR with a 4000ft straight away?

I'm really liking this TD61 turbo from threads I've read.

A 1.0 will work for most people. Its good up to 20psi, as long as you're not revving past 8k rpms.
That is what I would recommend for your needs also...

I must say, I'm vary impressed with those dyno number on pump gas even with the water/alcohol injection. Thats one hell of a tune

By the way, seen the video of your Rx-8 on streetfire yesterday, great job on that as well!

rofl, then late braked the Mini. I lol'd.

sweet ride

That thing is sick!!!! Seriously, the throttle response is no joke
