Bingo ! I was starting to think all the old school free power gainers we're being over looked. I totally agree with what both of these gentlemen above stated. When I got involved with DSM's 11 years ago, my friend had been involved for a year or two and was already aware of these mods. and was...
My friend and I recently dyno'd my car. The first time at the dyno we made 672. Car ran great on the dyno. Took it out 2 weeks later to do a little street pull and the CEL came on at 7k. We went about changing the tune since we believed it might be a little lean because of the temperature...
We just cracked the 700whp barrier today on stock ignition, stock TB, 2 liters, and E70 winter blend. Running BR8ESs gapped to .020, start/idle/part throttle is like stock with FIC 1650s and easytune on DSMlink V3 SD.
Gotta disagree with you on two points. The first being that the car was tuned "half decently". Since you tuned it, i'd have to say it was "well tuned". The second point being that anyone could take the same parts and run the same times easily. The bottom line is we both know the car was driven...
To optimize this turbo it only makes sense to run race gas, we're not talking about a green or an FP 3052 that thrives on pump gas. As far as weight reduction goes, my main concern was keeping my drive train in tact and chasing Shep's 20g record.I highly doubt that the 20g would flow 42-44...
I run a tdo6h 20g and i absolutely love it. Remember though...those proven tens were run by two "big time" guys. Not everybody is gonna run out and bolt this turbo on and run tens. I hear a lot of good things about the gt35r and was/am considering it as my next turbo. Good luck with your choice...
You got that right my friend !!! Tuning and driving are going to be essential keys to your success. Don't be to proud to accept some tuning help and get in as much seat time as you can. Best of luck to you.Dave Tdo6h 20g powered 7-bolt
I too have heard many positive things about the 3052. The numbers that interest me though are E.T. and mph. You may find it helpful to go onto DSM Times and look up some of these turbos. I have no idea about the 3076R or the 3071R. I can't help but believe they wouldn't be rather laggy on the...
I think you'll be fine with 850's. Interesting thing is i run a stock head and head gasket along with ARP's and have had no problems what-so-ever. My intake manifold is a first gen that's been extrude honed...nothing elaborate. My exhaust manifold is simply a ported 2nd gen., once again nothing...
Looks as if you've done a really nice job on your car. My friends help tuning my car and a lot of seat time were crucial to us getting the car to where it currently is. Continue to believe in yourself and your car and don't accept anything less than excellence. Keep me posted with your results...
If you don't put this set-up deep into the 11's something is very wrong or you're tuning way to conservatively. Don't under estimate your car or the strength of the 7-bolt. I'm on the verge of running 10's with a tdo6h 20g powered 7-bolt. The last time out we ran 11.03 @ 126.79 before grenading...
Do not give up on this turbo. I will hunt you down and strangle you !! j/k LOL! I'm on the verge of running 10's on a td06h 20g. Proper tuning and seat time WILL get you where you want to be. Best of luck !!Dave :talon:
A poor launch can ruin an otherwise decent run. The other thing a lot of people don't pay enough attention to is the 1-2 shift. We video tape all our passes and review them later. This is something to consider depending on how serious you are.The bottom line is it takes some practice to nail...
Big 16g= 36 lbs./min.Evo.III 16g= 42 lbs./min.20g= 44lbs./min.DaveP.S.- Go to DSMtimes.org...you'll see that a numberof cars have gone high 11's and 12.0's on your turbo
