    Do I need an intercooler?? pingingggggg

    update.... i had the 3.60 from awhile ago.. i put it on and im pushing 7-8 pounds.. it still seems fast... doesnt seem like ive sacrificed ALOT of power loss, but the loss is there.... it still tosses me to my seat like a little bitch.... So far it SEEEEEMS like the detonation isnt there...

    Do I need an intercooler?? pingingggggg

    soo do yous all agree that i put my bigger blower pulley on?? the 3.60 rather then 3.33 which'll spin the blower in its efficient range?

    Do I need an intercooler?? pingingggggg

    Holy hell i think you covered it all.. I have the bigger blower pulley... Itll drop it down to 44000 rpm which is 1000 under the max EFFICIENCY..... soo that said, i can prob make almost as much as i did with the more boost just by lessing the boost and lessening the intake temp?? i get...

    Do I need an intercooler?? pingingggggg

    Does this soung logical to you?? Im talking to daggar online, and he told me the first and prob only thing i should do is drop my boost with the next size blower pulley which is a 3.60 .. itll drop it 2 pounds and i will be spinning the blower at 44000 rpm, given that its being spun at 48000...

    It's just a stock block bored 30 over, bought at downs ford...... thats exactly why i dont care about losing power by just putting a methanol kit on without leaning it out....

    Do I need an intercooler?? pingingggggg

    nope.... i used the calculator on vortechs website to come up with the speed im making and used the impellor map to find out the absolute max rpm to pin it..... put it this way.. if i take the car to 6000 rpm, i am right there. at the absolute max... It dont seem much efficient at all. I...

    Do I need an intercooler?? pingingggggg

    thanks Readin vortechs website... The efficient impellor speed is 45000 while the max being 50000...... with my combo, i am putting out 48000 at 5800rpms.... that sure has to be heating the blower up.. I dont uunderstand... 10 pounds of boost on an S trim being the max?? that dont seem right...

    Do I need an intercooler?? pingingggggg

    Can you just explain why it wont work rather then tell me that it just wont work??? If you think about it... my air fuel is on the money right up to redline sooo obviously we know that im not running lean... and that its only pinging when my blower gets hotttt.. soo that tells up that my...

    Do I need an intercooler?? pingingggggg

    I was just under the impression that you need a timing retard after 8 pounds of boost.... i never thought of a cooler unless i was seriously spinning this s trim high... but with a 3.33 8 inch combo makin 10 pounds?? i never woulda known...

    im thinking about the AFM mr freeze kit....http://www.andersonfordmotorsport.com/mr-freeze.html My friend recently grenaded a headgasket because his Snow kit didnt activate... No it wasnt a faulty install.. it was dynoed deveral times for the methanol..... the mr freeze kit has no pump to...

    Do I need an intercooler?? pingingggggg

    Joe you said it right there.... sooo even if the methanol/water robs some power (which isnt a problem for me.. 513 is dangerzone anyways), wouldnt it efficiently cool the charge down to where it doesnt detonate????? I can rip on the car for awhile.. its just when the blower gets real hott...

    lol and the tv screen is now up for sale to pay a ticket that i just got.. its neverending.... I need a jobbbb..... i mean the methanol is only 180 bucks... couldnt it be something i can tryyy before i ever saved 1500 for an aftercooler?? it beats driving around how it is now.. I dunno what do...

    Do I need an intercooler?? pingingggggg

    well obviously if its allowing you to run more timing then you can ever run without it, isnt it theorriatically (sp) preventing detonation???

    You wouldnt say that methanol is RIGHT?

    Do I need an intercooler?? pingingggggg

    thanks alot guys... I dont understand tho.. it just seems like this is just me... I see alot of blower guys on this forum run nothin but a blower and its MY car thats gotta be the one to ping.... grr

    Do I need an intercooler?? pingingggggg

    i was just thinking about a n intercooler and for my setup i think it would be tooo much piping/boost loss for what its worth.. You guys are really fond on methanol???? if i use that, im going to use the AFM mr freeze, this way i have no worries of having a pump that can fail... If i do...

    my tune is based off of a SCT custom chip.... This was done weeks ago, which netted me 512 rwhp at 11 psi using an 8 inch crank and 3.33 blower pulley.... anyways, on the way home from getting it tuned, it pinged at 4500+... Of course as soon as i heard it ping, i let off and that was it...

    IAC problem.. Whats wrong???

    i gotcha.... i honestly cannot get it to idle that low.. 750-800 is as low as it will go without the idle starting to surge till it dies....... with that said, i set it to 800 prior to this thread, and plugged the IAC back in and it made no change whatsoever in idle...
