Another Boosted 420a!

sestepney · 07-16-2012, 10:23 AM

After 2yrs she's finally finished. Now she just needs to cleaned up and waxed. I'm getting my stock bumper and hood repainted. PS, I do have a filter on the turbo inlet, I just didn't have it on at the time.

Looks good you tuning w/ portfueler?

sestepney · 07-16-2012, 01:35 PM

^^Yes, Portfueler.

Not a fan of the rims but love the engine bay

Always liked the Hahn FMIC, incredibly sturdy intercooler with great mounting points.

Tiki2777 · 07-16-2012, 01:54 PM

Looks sick AF, but those rims you could do without. What turbo are you using?

GSTurbo1 · 07-16-2012, 02:28 PM

The engine compartment looks so nice man! Lose the rims...

eleclipse99 · 07-16-2012, 02:51 PM

nice!!! how many psi you'r runing????

99 gs iowa · 07-16-2012, 03:38 PM

looks very good, an very similar to my set up. an i am guessing its a s20g?

sestepney · 07-20-2012, 11:34 AM

WOW! I guess I will be rim shopping next, lol. I get props on them from alot of people but everyone has different taste. The car has a 16g turbo running 10psi.

What the fudge, built bottom end and only 10psi turn that bish up and get your two years worth!!

Also hope you don't get in a front end collision, no front support other then that expensive intercooler..

I'm just babying it while I break the motor in. Believe me its getting turned up soon!

grothe3297venge · 07-29-2012, 07:53 PM

Ohhhh didn't know you were breaking the engine in still! My bad lol! Amazing engine bay by the way!

chevaholix · 07-29-2012, 08:02 PM

Very nice 420a extremly clean.

sestepney · 07-30-2012, 07:03 PM

Thanks for the props! Sadly I just found a leak in my radiator! Overheating, getting a new radiator next week.

LOLVTEC · 07-30-2012, 07:08 PM

That's sexy. The evo 9 rims look great on 2 just my 2 cents

Well, I still need to do some fine tuning. She's borderline too rich, I got my portfueler from a third party and running off there tune. I'm hitting 10 a/f around 7psi. If anyone has the base map stage 4 from hahn I can compare the tune with, I would appreciate it.

I know a couple guys on ASEC have it, I'll ask around. But on another note can't you email Hahn about it? Dont see why they wouldn't give you it!

Hahn will charge me for it since I didn't buy my portfueler from them directly. I'll buy it if I have to but I figured I'd ask around first.

Did you try split second's website since they are the ones who distributed the 034 eic/aic controller (think that's what it is anyways lol)

grothe3297venge · 08-25-2012, 12:27 PM

So did you get everything figured out or what?? Been a while, should have your break in done and hopefully portfueler figured out!

sestepney · 09-17-2012, 08:50 AM

^^Overheating issue fixed, new radiator. Still haven't gotten the portfueler fine tuned. I'm saving to have it tuned by a shop, plus I'm waiting until I get something to control spark and timing. She still pulls great and idles with no issues. I got my inspection done and right after, CEL comes back on. I think the ECU caught on to the resister trick (EGR).

glowryder · 09-17-2012, 09:08 AM

you should be able to at least get the PF tuned in the balpark of 11.3 and let them fine tune it. Running 10 ( or richer since your gauge cant read richer) is dangerous to your walls.. If you wash them, you asking for another rebuild.. : )
Its an excell spread sheet, not to hard.. Just make sure map a and B are the same and your good.

Yeah, your right. I did cut the map down a little but just haven't done it enough. I've been thinking about running a serial cable from the portfuler to inside the cab to view live data and record but not sure if drilling a hole through the portfuler for the cable to pass through will hurt it.
