54lbs/min on the 68hta?? that is insane...great little sucker
Well see the thing is that I am on the fp68hta turbo. It is the stock style 7cm2 housing and it is using an evo3 with just a billet wheel. I need an o2 housing that fits the vband tial on that. I was just showing a pic of my other turbo that I have never installed to show which tial gate I have. I already have a downpipe and dump tube for my FP3575 but I am not using that turbo and maybe never will. I was just showing which gate I want to install on my 68HTA.
This is the one I need right?
EXTREME PSI : Your #1 Source for In Stock Performance Parts
This is what is on there now. NOT the 3575. Except I cut the dump tube off the o2 housing, welded a piece of sheetmetal over it and then cut a small hole in it.
What is impressive is 33psi of boost pressure at 7000rpm! I can't wait to see the comparison once a set of upgraded cams go in this motor instead of the stock automatic tiny cams.
No kidding! That is very impressive indeed. What a kick ass turbo!
Take that with a grain of salt, he's running speed density, so Lb/Min is just a calculated value that gets all fudged up due to "how" you tune the car.
What is impressive is 33psi of boost pressure at 7000rpm! I can't wait to see the comparison once a set of upgraded cams go in this motor instead of the stock automatic tiny cams. That will be a great back/back comparison that should show if the boost drops significantly due to increased top end flow.
That car is just badass man and its gives me a ton of motivation! What size of slicks are those? And how is the clearance running stock struts?
S and W racecars has mild steel or chromoly cages/roll bars. If you go with a mild steel cage, make sure you go with DOM tubing and not EWS tubing. Page Title Race Car Dragster Chassis, Roll bars, Cages, Suspensions, Parts
24.5x8x15 MT ET DRAGS on 15x8 rims. I have 4.5 in backspacing on the rims. They clear the struts perfect. I think 5.5 backspacing would work great but may (i doubt it tho) require a tiny spacer to clear the fronts
go with a chromoly cage and the kits fit like balls....i know first hand24.5x8x15 MT ET DRAGS on 15x8 rims. I have 4.5 in backspacing on the rims. They clear the struts perfect. I think 5.5 backspacing would work great but may (i doubt it tho) require a tiny spacer to clear the fronts.
Are these kits pretty good? The chromoly one says 500 which is not too bad. I just found out I have access to a welder and welding machine to weld heli arc tig and he is pretty experienced. It would save money but I dont know about a pre made kit. As far as DOM, are all there chromoly kits DOM?
$1500 for just a cage ?? that is alittle high.SO the kits are shit? I assumed so. I have someone I am going to have do it custom for 1500 soon.
The backspacing is the measure from hub surface to inside edge of rim. It is so much easier to measure than offset and backspacing is what really matters. All the racing rims like at jegs and summit are all measured in backspacing. You can use a calculator online if you Really want to convert it to offset in mm. But if you measure in inches how much room you have from hub to hitting suspension, that seems easy to me to be able to find the correct backspacing.
Here it is for ya cody.

What is your timing at? And is your car 2600lbs with you in it? with my e316g I actually lost 3mph going from 24psi to 28+psi. I just used 3 additional heavy springs on my actuator and unplugged source line to the WG. I was guessing this was due to excessive duration cam and tons of back pressure/reversion. Maybe I have other issues. Congrats though thats great MPH!Ill try to get a pic but I used a small cutting wheel to grind a hole so it is not a circle, therefore hard to get a diameter. I will get pics tomorrow. I am going back to the track, norwalk that is.
