interesting gauge placement. looks good

 

Looks real good, are you still running stock clutch?

 

yea for right now i am. i plan on gettin something a lil beefier. i'll get that with a new flywheel too

 

Sounds good. Sounds like you have opened the car up and the stock clutch is holding up. Im gona start my kit next month and I know Im gona upgrade the clutch, but I dont want to do it right away. Any slipping or anything yet?

 

Slippage is a given even at 8psi. If you dont plan on upgrading the clutch right away it is imperative you get tuned asap. Otherwise tuning is going to be off because of slippage on the dyno.

The torque level being produced is well beyond design limits for the stock clutch.

I started slipping shortly after I was dyno'd. It would usually hold up ok when I first started driving, but as it got hot it would start to slip, until it would even slip under heavy load when it was cold.

 

yea, no slippage yet, but it's only been 4 days with the turbo and for the most part i've been babying it. I'll keep you updated, but i expect the stock clutch to start slipping pretty soon.

i remember being in xero's car when the clutch would slip and it was always just so frustrating.

kept up with 2 Mach 1 Mustangs today. We only went to like 60 mph, and started at like 25 mph which is right where boost kicks in for 2nd gear :-)

I was just followin them, I'm sure they were like, what the hell?? why's this box keepin up with us lol

 

lol nice kills my stock clutch lasted 700 miles then blew i will post a picture of it later lol it melted basicly lol

 

HAHAHA, MELTED?! thats crazy!!! i def wanna see a pic of that!

 

Stock clutch melting means you cant drive. ;)


I predict your clutch to slip on the dyno. You should just pick up a clutch and fly wheel right now with some motul gear 300 and swap it b4 you get tunned. The stock clutch will still slip even if it isnt noticeable. Your Hp and Tq numbers wont be 100% acurate.

 

lol i could be in gear pin it in 3-5 and just slip it was bad

what clutch you going to go with i have the stage 5 cm its nice but loud and it chatters

 

i havent done much research yet on what clutch i would want. i just now started runnin out of money haha

 

Run a stage 2-3 Competition clutch with a Fidanza fly wheel. You dont need anything really over a stage 2 and a stage 2 will last longer than a stage 3.



Oh corey I hop you saw the winky smile at the end I was just joking with you.

 

you know the feeling of when it firsts starts slipping of the stall converter it almost makes it feel faster in lower rpms cause it in the power band

 

Some more pics of the first day of install.





















Thats me in the coveralls (Air Force Issue ) My girl friend was taking the pics.

dont know if the older tc clucth/flywheel mate up the same

 

They meet up perfect from my understanding since everything from toyota (LSD included) says xB2 on it. Stage 1 is a dookie clutch and that fly wheel i wouldnt trust it at all. Competition clutch with a Fidanza 9 lbs light weight fly wheel FTMFW.

 

so...the tc LSD fits the xb2 also?

 

Yea same motor same tranny. Homerhita has the LSD in his xB.

 

every one be jacking my exhaust style lol

 

What are you talking about??? I didnt jack anything with the way I wanted this exhaust.
