anyone care to post some pictures of how their opt b 3/4" hose is routed form the tank to the T fitting ?

with the TVS there is no room at all to run it by the pulley ..

running it through the tie bar seems like it would make a high point and fluid would not flow past that point.


just looking for some ideas ... right now mine is down under the washer fluid reservoir and its too low for the fluid to come back up to the T fitting.

 

 

Looks like this thread hasn't gotten much love lately

As long as the fluid level in the option B res is higher than the highest point of the feed line (it should be the highest point in the system already anyway), fluid will come out the other end. A low loop might create more of an air bubble than a smaller loop, but it will bleed out over time along with the rest of the air in the system. depending on how the rest of the system is plumbed, this could happen really quickly, or not so much.

Road-tripped to the ARMperformance dyno day yesterday, and got on the rollers again. Since my last pass (SAE:416/300, STd:424/306), I have:
-more timing mid-range with a hair more peak
-400rpm higher redline (8150 from 7750)
-ditched the zzp catback with the two chambered mufflers and replaced it with straight through borlas with a side exit.

Look in my photos on here. I have pics of my opt b setup.

 

haha thanks for the tips guys, i figured it out back in May lol. Got my TJolley griffen in there

 

lol damn... didn't even notice the date.

 

I did. Decided to respond anyway

 

You just wanted extra attention drawn to those awesome graphs you posted

 

I just felt bad we left someone hanging for 5 months lmao

 

Fixed it for you.

 

much better. I need an updated avatar with a flame spanning the whole left lane

 

After you left the other day my pregnant sister in law said it was so loud it hurt her chest. She was at least 150 feet from your car lol.

 

I was trying to keep it down in the neighborhood lol, sorry. did you hear me get on the freeway?

 

 

I have a serious love/hate relationship with my exhaust

 

Michael,

What diameter piping did you run from the collector back?

 

3". I have a side dump now and i'm pretty positive that net me significant power over the zzp with the 2 massive chambered mufflers.

the only changes from my 424 pull were 2* midrange and 1* up top, 400 more rpm, and the straight through exhaust setup.

 

Yeah those chambered mufflers from ZZP bottle neck horribly.

Borla's design looks much better for flow.

Crazy what a difference +.2 Liters and one size down on the pulley makes.

 

I could probably squeeze a bit more out with more timing, but its proven to be fairly stout. I would like to keep it that way

Did you guys ever do the exhaust size testing like you planned? I still think the 2.25" held back your numbers

 

Still on the table

We have a 2.5 and a 3" Borla cat-back ready to go for the next round of dyno sessions.

The 2.25" borla cat-back was able to carry hp up to 8400 rpm.

There were a couple untouched areas left in the tune as well.
Sub 11 AFR and 3-4 degrees left in the meat of the torque band.

 

with your new found displacement things r gona be a lot different.

remember mike has rod ratio on his side also. the 2.2 rod is a lot longer than a LSJ rod. engine runs much more freely.

 

I think you have that backwards

 

no sir out of the 2.0 2.2 2.4 the 2.2 has the longest rods

 

I mean as far as rod/stroke ratio goes and your "engine runs more freely" statement.

lsj is ~1.68
l61 is ~1.55

 

That's going backwards
