I just wanted to share our most recent accomplishment. 10.92 @ 129mph on Will Stanton's stock block and head Talon with the HX-40 6 blade T3 turbo. It took 4 trips to the track to get things sorted out. Will broke the center diff on his very first pass on M&H DOT slicks and we didn't even realize it until 3 runs later when I saw the car spin the rear tires in every gear. :p A quick trip to RedJack Racing fixed that by welding it back up and sticking it back in the transmission.

Except for the fuel sloshing issue being fixed by using the Full-Blown hanger, the rest of the car was untouched and it went 10.9 with only adjustments to driving, tire pressure/suspension settings, boost, and tuning.

I believe the car was floating the valves at 7800 RPM, so set of Evo 8 springs/retainers are going in tonite. The car was overheating real bad at the track in 4th gear due to a 2 row civic radiator, and timing was being pulled down to 9* which was really hurting the MPH. A fluidyne is on its way, so hopefully this should help out.

Future mods will include a billet batmowheel for the HX40, and a RedJack Racing intake manifold (will be available in July) to replace that old school Magnus street v2.

For those in the area, we'll be at Summer Slam at Englishtown on the 30th to compete in the 10.50 index class. We'll see how she holds up! :thumb:

Thats awesome guys!! this gives me really high hopes for my t/s hx35 set up.. Its almost identical to your guys set up here minus the hx40 and Q16.. What were you guys able to get out of just ump gas before having to switch to the mix?


On pump gas with just wastegate pressure (19psi), the car went 12.3 @ 118 with a 2.0 60ft. Will's Talon was suffering from a serious fuel cut issue during the launch due to a problem with the stock fuel sump in the tank. I'm confident it would have gone in the 11's on pump gas at 19psi.

The car made 315whp on STM's Mustang Dyno at 19psi on 93 octane with a quick pump gas tune I threw on the night before.

Thats awesome!! Im hoping to break into the 10s this season.. Currently the Spyders at 23 psi so Im thinking it just about the same power level as your waste gate pressure! hhaha

Whats the race weight?

I'm not sure of the actual weight, but its pretty close to stock weight. The roll cage pretty much makes up for the cf hood and hatch (stock glass).
 
I would say the car is about 3300 with me in it. It has a mildly gutted interior, CF hood and hatch with the stock glass in it. I've taken just about everything out of it that I wanted to (interior, cruise, AC, ABS, Corbeau seat); I want something that I wouldn't mind cruising around in once in a while as opposed to a balls-out race car.
 
Great results from the simple setup

what were you shifting the car at ? what tires were being used? what was max boost, any dyno numbers to compare with?

I saw 8300 rpm or so on my 1-2 shift and and 7800-8000 rpm on all other shifts. Tires were M&H Racemaster DOT Slicks. Max boost was 33 psi. Nope, no dyno numbers to compare against, other than the 19 psi pump gas number that I did for funsies.
 
Ya from my iPhone, but I see why it says the content owner has not made the video available on mobile. I'll check it out on my laptop, so far I like what I'm seeing!! :) Like I was saying the other vids show up and work just fine on my iPhone, it's just the one oh well. Thx for the links
 
I know when I uploaded it, I chose to make it available to mobile users. I'll double check it.

*edit* Apparently I did make it unavailable to mobile users. It won't let me switch it while I'm at work so I'll fix it later.
 
That's cool bro I think I found it on the normal YouTube app on my phone. I'm really encouraged by you guys and the setup. I've been running my small16g for a few years now and have been able to hit 12.8. I have a hx35 siting in my closet with a .55 bep housing that's going on next. No one out here realizes the potential of the holset turbos. I will be the first to run one and hope to throw down some nice numbers. There seems to be a lot of pte and eBay garbage users out here. I can't wait to see the look on there faces when they find out I'm using a holset that I put together for around $300 LOL. Keep up the good work guys, this is why I love dsm's.
 
Great job with the car so far! Hella nice time!

There are 2 videos, one is like 20 seconds long, the other one is 4mins long and its a compilation vid.
 
I'll see you on the 30th! The wifey and I will be going but the DSM isn't tuned so I won't be running and representing the Holset DSMs with yah.
