oh hell yeah. exhaust should be in tomorrow. actually going to have some free time this weekend to get it out and dialed in.
see what I can do on the current fuel system for now (maybe 400whp) I am trying to decide which car to put my 20 gallon fuel cell in.

exhaust is on, vacuum leak at tb fixed. just need to tighten up a few exhaust manifold bolts this morning and it's time to hit the road.
wide band is still acting up though, going to rewire that this morning to see why it just sits at 15.8 and up. new sensor just installed last week so I dunno, hopefully it's just a bad ground and not the gauge itself, was working fine when I pulled the car apart last october.
looking forward to driving this thing again. Still iffy on the condition of the motor though, is burning a little oil, but it's random.

You got all worked up over nothing last night lol. Glad u got the tb issue solved

Well hits keep on coming. Got one pull in and broke the rear mount. Also motor is smoking pretty heavily when hot. Ugh just want to be able to drive this damn car

What mounts did u have stock or rotated ?

I have a stock one if you need it just let me know

06blackg85ss

iTrader: (1)

rotated mounts, and it's the bracket that bolts to the trans side is snapped in half. still took it out this morning, on wastegate only (21ish psi) she is an animal. still running pretty rich up top as far as I can tell with a non working wideband lol. but rips 2nd and 3rd apart without even trying as soon as the gate starts screaming.
just have to chase down a mystery oil leak and I'll try and get some full pulls in today. maxing the maf out at 7400 on wastegate so definitely going to have to start tweaking soon.
first things first, get wide band to function, fix oil leak, fix trans mount... profit lol
124% idc at 7400 rpm so I'm pretty sure it's just running rich, don't feel like changin pump and injectors right now
24 degrees timing and no knock anywhere at wot. still need to do a lot more tuning on it, but all in good time

Time for tires and more airflow if you are rolling 3rd and only maxing the maf at 7400 Just busting your ***** lol

lol it's no where near what I'll be running on it. Swapping to the 160's this saturday and have a massive oil leak I need to fix then it's game time
I was only on wastegate spring, didn't even put the boost controller in yet. 21.8-22psi is it for now

stuck with the one wheel peel with no lsd so she no wanna hook. also running star specs which aren't the greatest for straight line traction. Ordering a set of the et street r's very soon to help cope with that handicap lol

I've never had LSD in my car, even in my 6 speed I no has it lol. It doesn't really seem to matter for straight line acceleration. In the corners under power you can notice it though. On the ET streets you should hook 3rd no matter what

I have tried to explain this over the years to the kiddies.

InfraRedline

iTrader: (4)

Paul isn't exactly one of those kiddies lol, but I know you have! With the right tire/suspension setup some pretty good traction can be had!

06blackg85ss

iTrader: (1)

yeah straight line is fine unless you hit some bumps or uneven pavement, then one tire fire through the rest of the gear.

but yes, you most notice it in the turns.
with good sticky tires on it, she'll hook and book, well as good as a fail wheel drive car can

Oh I know he isn't. More of general statement.

I'm quite impressed with how well these cars can hook up with the right setup on the street. I honestly never thought I'd hook like I do.

06blackg85ss

iTrader: (1)

had it out all weekend. 22psi still need a lot of tuning work and need to get my fuel pressure reg in to drop it 43psi as these injectors are not happy at 58psi at idle.
but feathering out 2nd gear I can get it to hook and it pulls pretty damn good for only a base tune and no idea what afr I'm running lol

Meh, lean it out until it starts pushing coolant and then richen it up a couple points

iTrader: (66)

Thats the way i see it. That said going from non lsd to lsd didnt change my 60' times on slicks

06blackg85ss

iTrader: (1)

haha, need this motor to last a while

06blackg85ss

iTrader: (1)

yeah slicks or good dr's there is no difference

06blackg85ss

iTrader: (1)

well now on 32ish psi. car is beasting.
motor is holding up so far. burns a little oil, but it's not too bad.

06blackg85ss

took it out today, finally fixed the motor mount (completely snapped in two) and tie rod end. turned down to 30psi cause traction
