Stock motor? Why such little power?

 

Stock motor?? have you not looked through this thread? We cant seem to get the rev limiter raised at the moment, we are trying to get that resolved as you can see the revs stop before the power

 

Hey Jester, I know you no longer have the Wilwood BBK, however. Can you clarify whether the BBK works with the stock wheels alone? Kanchi and a few others say it does not work for their kits but you said it works for yours.

 

Yes it does, look here https://www.scionlife.com/forums/sho...&postcount=119, those on track pictures are with the Wilwood kit on....I do run 20mm spacers, but when I installed the kit I test fit them without the spacers, and while it was close, at least for me, there was no clearance problems

Turn up the BOOOST

 

The goal at this point is 400whp on the Mustang dyno, and we should be there once we get the rev limiter bumped up a few hundred rpms, at the same boost level. This setup is what we will be taking to the Scion Exposed event next month at Oreilly Park to see what it will do on the track. After that we will probably do some "bragging" dyno pulls, with increased boost, maybe an E85 map, but the overall goal is to have this at 400whp since this will not be a drag car, or dedicated race car at this point really no reason to have it over that

 

I GUESS




Mustang uncorrected dyno. Stock motor. 14-15 psi. E85

Was going for 360 ish before fuel regulator blew apart

 

Interesting because on this thread here https://www.scionlife.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=175098

You were praising them for 400whp on 20psi with built motor and 900cc injectors...on Dyno Dynamics

We are at 377whp on 17psi with built motor and 550cc injectors...on Mustang Dyno....and you are giving me the business.....just curious

Here is one of the earlier runs


Tomorrow it is going down to the Dynojet so that we can see how those numbers compare to the Mustang Dyno numbers

 

They did it on a 300.00 AEM fic with 91 octane..

I have followed your build.. And i figured you would shoot for more then 400. Ptuning had no issue puttin 550whp down..

Im not downing you bro.. Maybe you took wrong way.. Sick car. Sick build! But id like to see u do 450 here. 500 dynojet. Then find what boost level works for you at the track!

 

Way back when was definitely shooting for those numbers...but now I guess with all that has happened just want a rock solid setup, with a decent number.

The other issue we would have at those numbers is my block is not sleeved.... so we could probably get there...but not sustain there reliably

 

nice build.. btw how come my wilwood kit did not fit with EMX super 7s without spacer.. i have to run 5 mm spacer on the fronts for now..

 

It was given that the wilwoods would not fit with super 7s. Its not the same offset or spec as stock. Jester, may I ask why you were running 20mm spacers?

 

Because my 19x8" wheels are +48 offset and I want them flush, which as you can see has works nicely.


Have no idea, all I can tell you is that I tried/tested them with my setup, and everything worked fine, maybe the S7's are different offset than stock

 

Well....still here...thought I would provide and update on the "Unicorn"

Last year before the exposed event...we had a slight....um...ok major melt down...literally with the motor






So we took a step back and really evaluated the whole setup








So we decided to make some changes in the setup:
1) Ditched the Hydra for what we consider a more reliable and proven solution....Emanage Ultimate

2) Got a new block and started from scratch
-Blocked Bored .020+
-CP Pistons
-ARP Fastners(Head & Mains)
-Head Completely Gone Through

3) Buttoned up misc things
-Defi Oil Pressure Gauge
-Dezod Braided Brake Lines
-Speed Bleeders
-Ditched CC Short Shifter in Favor of TRD Shifter
-ES Master Bushing set
-New Lugs
-New Weighted Shift ****
-Speed Source Motor Mounts

 

Motor was assembled today!

Since the new lower block was from an 08-09 it had to be clearanced so that the ARP mains would clear





Comparison of the 05/06 to 08/09 lower block

 

cool!

 

good stuff brian. will you be jumping on the e85 bandwagon as well? also, did you guys ever get the rev limit situation sorted out?

 

never mind. just read that you ditched the hydra.

 

Still debating on the e85 deal however the gas station less than a mile from our house now sells it so the option is definitely tempting
