Probably not tight enough. Remove the actuator bracket, or try to modify a socket or crows foot or something. Thread sealant isn't gonna do anything as it doesn't seal at the threads. Same goes for AN fittings - never understood people use teflon tape on the threads. When in doubt, ditch the...
That was the main reason for wanting it. Nobody was using one on a DSM, and the flow per wheel size is insane. It's basically the latest gen 3071 and it does 70+ lb/min. My goal was to retain or even improve the response from the current HTA76 in the FP30 bolt-on hotside while gaining 100-150...
The old HTA76 is hanging in there lol. I ended up swapping gates and put all the springs in, now it holds like 39psi to redline and it's night and day vs before. The 10+ year old tires are a little sketchy so I've got some new R888Rs ready to swap on. If I do the G30, then I'd be out of fuel...
Definitely not the case for me. I've got an EVO 6 and a Callaway Twin Turbo C4 Vette that sit as well. I just always gravitate to the newer cars, and if I want to drive something old I usually take the '67 Vette. Rad era for me is neat to have but too old to feel modern and too new to feel...
I'm in the same boat. I think I had my G30-770 before you got your new turbo and I still haven't gotten around to installing it. The car is absolutely perfect as a street/strip machine. Light, reliable, stupid fast, great spooling, handles and brakes well. But I rarely drive it. I put power...
Yes and no. 35R comp wheel. T04S comp cover. T3 stage III 76 trim T31 turbine wheel. BB center but not the garrett 35R type. Bolt-on hotside that they claim is .63AR but flows more like a 7cm.
As stated above, a 255/40 on a 17 x 9 +35 to 45 is about the most you'd want to run on a 1G. I've got 17x8 +48 wheels with 245/40s that fit great on my car.
On race gas, that extra timing really woke these cars up back in the day. We ran 11.0 @ 126 on a VPC, 550s, 20g, 272s, and no wideband. Stock 1G 7 bolt, head and intake manifold. Just plain old C16, leaned out, and 25+ degrees of timing at 30 psi. On pump, different story. You're not running...
They cancel out because you're telling the ECU that it's seeing less airflow, which makes it deliver less fuel. The bigger injectors cancel this by flowing more at the same duty cycle. The side effect, however, is that now the ECU is on a lower load table with more timing. May be a good thing on...
It's still together, the drivetrain is going into my friend's car but he's not the type to make much progress so I may dig it out again. I'd guesstimate it at around 2100 lbs without me. I'd love to get into tubular subframes, CF body parts, etc to get the weight down more but I don't have the...
