THANKS EVERYONE FOR THE SUPPORT AND COMMENTS! I really really appreciate them and im glad to be back!
WOW... It has been a while, I was just wondering the other day where you have been. Sorry to hear about your father, thats a tough situation to deal with. Glad to see you are doing better though...
Those new numbers are amazing!!! Your GT is 1 gifted car, I have never seen a stock longblock 2V ever put out those type of numbers & not go BOOM!!!
When you gonna hit the track to see what she runs?
Thanks Epic, not sure about track time haha...im not sure I want to run it @ 14.5PSI for a full 1/4 pass lol. I have done several 4th gear pulls on the highway to dial the tune in, but I know 640 is REALLY pushing the stock bottom end. Compression test made me feel good though...183-194 accross the board
I dont mind doing my daily driver setting of 9PSI or even the 12PSI setting though....maybe soon, its just going to be really hard going back to the track for the first time.
what cams your running? impressive numbers
VT STG 1 N/A cams...yea lol, NA cams
Will do! Plus a vid in the next post
Wow, that is impressive for a stock short block. and some insane numbers. what was the cause for your boost to drop on your last run? im not too familiar with turbos.
I had my boost controller too sensitive and the setpoint too low. It spiked to 14.5 (shooting for 14) and then it slammed the waste gate open to shut down/hold the boost...well it slammed it open too far and cause it to drop. I just didnt have time to make it peak right to 14PSI and hold steady on that setting
It is easly fixed in my settings if I get some time to play with it.
Wow Very impressive! Sorry about your dad, i know how you feel my mom died about 7 years ago...
Sorry to hear bro
It does suck....you could never ever prepare yourself for something like that.
wow, that is terrible about your dad. i figured something was up when i PM'd you back in august when you hadnt been on here in a few months. i know you and your dad were close. i remember reading that first turbo build thread and how much he was helping you out. then you wrecked and sold the car, and bought it back a few months later. that was just after my build, so it's been a long time.
i'm glad you're back around here. seems like there arent as many of the old guys here anymore. great numbers on the stock engine too! i know it's a beast! you've beat my numbers with less boost and a stock engine!!!
BTW do you still have the bike?
Thanks Saleen! Been a while bro...but yea no way im touching your IC sprayd run lol! I fogot what you made pump and boost only...so I went and looked it up haha...still EXCELLENT numbers and you run that setting all the time. Mines only for special occasions
Yes sir...busa is still in the garage under a bike cover. Rode it around the block once in the past 5 months
But hopefully this summer that will change
Really sorry to hear about your Dad, you have my thoughts to you and your family. I am glad to see you back in the car and getting it going agian! Impressive numbers to say the least! Maybe now you can get it to the track, You have a return fuel system on that thing?
Thanks bro...nope its returnless. Twin ford GT pumps in a 03 cobra tank...with a stg2 fpdm. And I run 80# injectors. The injectors are @74% duty cycle...the pumps are pegged on the topend lol. Ill need a BAP if I ever want to go higher.
