Yeah I'll prob go that route. Ill be running a dual pass but with just the zzp s3 HE. Maybe get a second one later down the line if I up the boost.

 

does anyone know what the stock LT clutch can handle in terms of whp? Im guessing 250 ish. Of course it will prob burn out quickly if driven hard

 

ive been S/Ced for 3 years now and i'm stilll on stock clutch at 110,000km holdin strong. i'm on a 2.8 and 60's, full header back so im seeing like 12 psi MAX if im lucky.

 

My clutch only lasted a few hours before starting to slip. I had a 3.0 pulley at the time

 

wow. do you drive it hard frequently? Im on my second clutch already since 33k miles and im at 47 now I'm a loser. But my next investment will probably be an aftermarket clutch once this one goes.

 

It sees boost quite often lol. I honestly think I got the lucky L61 out of the bunch. She's a trooper.

 

my clutch only slips periodically but its got 120K on it

I hope it likes the 2.7 thats going on soon lol

 

so there is some hope for me after all haha

 

If I run a 2.9 with dual pass, ported blower and tb, i should be making around 215+whp right? maybe that at the crank. Just want to get an idea of how close im gonna be to blowing my car up.

 

around 220 at the wheels would seem about right.

an LSJ can make more with the same setup because of their head.
2.2L heads suck

 

Does anyone know the size bolt for the lower manifold mount to intake mani?

 

To the supercharged 2.2's: for your tune, did you go through trifecta itself or a 3rd party company? Just wondering cuz i was looking at badnewsracing's deals but idk if its the same thing.

 

First post updated with pics! Still need a coulpe things tho. Injector harness, Intake, hoses/reservoir, boost gauge and spark plugs. And then the tune obviously

 

I'm going through trifecta. From the build threads I have read, it is one of the best options for L61s and LAPs.

 

I would think 215 would be easy to hit. Are you going to use the stock exhaust and intake?

 

I have an lsj header to delete the SAI and a tsudo n1 catback. Might pick up an lsj dp to complete the exhaust tho. not sure. Ive done some reading on Gene's build and with a 2.9 and ported blower and ported tb, i will prob see close to what he got, like 250whp+

As for the intake, I am just thinking about throwing my own cai together with some more 3" pipes and a filter at the end instead of forking over 100+ for it. The kit i got came with some pipes, clamps, connectors, and a pipe to hold the maf so it would be easy to do.

 

Decided to paint my intake mani. Tried tinting my tails with plastidip smoke, but i ran out before i can get it darker. maybe another time haha.



Thought this looked cool lol

 

What gauges does everyone generally run besides interceptors? Ive got a boost and wideband and deciding whether or not to put in a water temp for the ic pump line.

 

how did that dip smoke work out?

 

Those are all the gauges you need.

 

No need for a water temp gauge for the ic system. That water will stay right around ambient temp which doesn't tell you anything. Interceptor, wideband, and boost is all you need and technically the interceptor reads boost but everyone loves watching that needle move around on the mechanical gauge Only other thing you should do is rewire with a 2.5 bar map so you can read IAT2's

 

i was thinking about doing that re-wire but i heard it can cause a tuning headache.

I went through a can doing light coats before it got dark enough and it just looked like my tail lights were foggy. im gonna try again but start with 2-3 cans and probably thicker coats.

 

id also like to do the 2.5 bar map, but is the rewire the same for the 2.4's as the 2.2's? the thread that posted up how to do it did it on a 2.4l i believe. Would it be the same process for the 2.2l?

and anyone know the part number of the sensor used to do this?

i'm still on the 1 bar map, and was tunned by vince. it runs fine, but the car runs rich (10.0's) at partial throttle when i'm seeing like 0-5 psi. Cuz when the car sees 0 psi, it just starts dumping fuel in cuz it cant read the exact psi above that.

 

one of the pictures in my first post is a 2.5 bar map. Not sure how to re-wire and a bit cautious on doing it from the problem Gene had in his build.

 

plus id need an interceptor
