Here is some more video that we made tonght. I know the turbo bug is here so we thought we would fuel the fire.

Stage 1 - 300whp



I WANT!

Ooo... from that 0-100 run, 0-60 took about 5 seconds, including bouncing off the rev limiter. Could probably get it down to low 4s with a good run and better tires.

I noticed one thing though, something was blinking on the dash of the 0-100 run... tell your driver to put his seatbelt on, he must be crazy

turbo2liter

If you watch, he was just spinning 1st.. it seemed to be post 6 seconds before he crossed teh 60 mark. Not bad for a FWD really.

Also, I never had much luck controlling torque steer with one hand on top of the steering wheel ;)

Looks strong.

i want too

^^^ I agree

No pics of under the hood though?
Nice editing on the video...

I have one rant though... why were you testing your car on a busy road? [/end rant]

zac

i wanna see more!

on your 0-100 run, what gauge was that on the dash? was it boost or air/fuel?

turbo2liter

Torque steer isn't hitting 2nd hard and having a little spin. Torque steer is rolling into it in 3rd and baking of Nitto's :D

Haha.. I have a dsm at my house too. Believe me I know all about it. 98 gst

My DSM is AWD, but my previous "fun" car was a 4g63 swapped original turbo Mirage making near 400whp

Wonder how well it does against quick cars that are decently modified. (TC 350Z or whatever)

taquito

I am curious to get all that power what internals did you guys upgrade and what do you guys honestly think the life of the engine will be at that amount of boost and power?

Lets hear your professional opinions over this question.

xyouthx

im pretty sure it's stock internals, but dont know for sure, and i too am eager to know how reliable they plan on making this?? milage wise or whatever

jrv2000

nice video!

BTW I think they are running all stock internals

ZPIracing

The boost level is 10 psi and we think that it will last a long time. We are running stock internals and this is the same car that we sprayed the hell out of.

This has to be one of the most abused tC on the market and it is holding up strong. It has been really hot in louisville lately and we have nad no problem and drive it everyday.

The gauge on the dash ia a AEM wideband as you can see the A/F never climb over 11.5-1 and are usally in the 11.1-11.3 range this is a very safe and reliable tune.

i watched the video, very impressive. as far as the wot tuning it looks safe, like you said 11.1-11.5 max. but during off throttle and partial throttle i thought i could see a few jumps into the 14-15 range. the video blown up isnt great as far as clarity, probably from the camera not being mounted. does anyone else think they saw af that high in the vid? i just want to be sure that when i do go turbo that it will be completely safe for daily driving in part throttle conditions.

i was deffinitlely leaning to zpi because of the smaller more streetable turbo and impressive dyno's. just want to know what everyone else and zpi has to say about these af's.

jrv2000

you should shoot a pm over to matty-tc or oldman. I think they know alot about the af ratios.

ZPIracing

The A/F do go that high when the car is off boost and at partial throttle. When the motor is off load the A/F are very safe and allow you to get fairly good gas mileage.

agreed with what zpi said.

naturally aspirated air fuel ratios are generally allowed to be 2 points higher than the forced induction (minus NOS)... due to the increased heat and a situation more likely to create fatal detonation
