Any dyno #'s?

I have huge grounds, and I'm not the only one having this issue. The larger pulley helped a little which would suggest that the alternator is the issue. Those gm alternators just aren't made to rev to the rpm I'm reving to. It's a one wire alternator so I know it's not wiring issue. It...

Mine is relocated. And I have a gm one wire alternator now. A 160 amp. It's just not made to rev as high as I am revving th car. I put a bigger pulley on it which helped a little but still drops volts a little after about 7400 rpm. The evo ones never have that issue

Has anyone ever tried an evo alternator ?

It looks like I'm still having this issue. Any suggestions ?

Anyone ????

I ended up with a 3.25" ford pulley that fit on well. I'll let you guys know the results when I get back on the dyno this week. It's already on and in the car so I might as well try it. The old pulley was 2 inches in diameter

Has anyone changed the pulley on the gm 1 wire alternator ? Mine is shutting off after 7500 rpm. So I want to put a bigger pulley on. I was thinking a 2.5" or 3"This is the alternator I'm using. http://m.motorcityreman.com/high-amp-alternators-1-wire-universal-mount-gm.html

What size fuse did you use for the inline fuse?Also has anyone in here had charging problems at high Rpms with one of these. Mine cuts out at 7500 rpm

Well that's not what I wanted to hear lol

I have series 1 aem on my 1g. I'm wondering if I can/ how to use a different input for my map sensor than the one aem says to use ? Thank you in advance!

A try and add a ground from the case of the alt. to the body. That solved my problem. Also the ghetto way to make it a little better would be unplug the alternator. You will then have to rev the car every time you start the car to have the alteator start working. But you will gain volts...

Congrats!

You can always get my maf-translator and gm maf.

Im interested to see how this turns out. Please keep us updated.

That car has a dog box?

Interior is fresh

Anybody?

what kind of tires was this done on and what tranny?

sick man, we need a dsm like this around town.... there are a lot of cars around here that would like to play.

It is my car. The issue is it dips volts under WOT. Sometimes as low as low 11's to high 10's.

Well the issue is a shop that I will no longer go to or do business with set them up so idk how they were wired. Ill get picks

Bumper. And what check for blown fuses?

I have two pusher fans that worked normally until recently. They both would turn on when the key is turned to run. Now as long as the battery is connected te fans stay on. Any idea why? And how to fix it?

Well I believe this is the turbo I just got. I'm very disappointed to hear such bad reviews. I'm running e85 with a built motor, 272's and on link. Will this turbo really be a waste of time coming from a fp 18g to this? I usually run around 30 psi on the 18g and was planning on doing the same...

Ok I recently acquired the same turbo in a trade, except mine has a .48 t3 flanged turbine housing. I know it will work better than the one this guy has, but how much? I currently have a fp18g but it needs a new backhousing. Which turbo will be able to make more power? How much can I expect...

Nasty

Still has more in it!

Still haven't dynod, I'm switching to a 7 bolt head and smim

I got them both for free so I'm going to use whichever one is going to be better for making power. I only do drag racing.

It's a 2g head sorry for confusion. Just seeing If the venom will be better than stock

I am switching from a 6 bolt to 7 bolt head. With the heads I got two free intake manifolds. One is a venom and the other is absolutely stock 7 bolt. I have dual springs and retainers, hks272's. but a small turbo for now on around 30 psi. Which manifold should I use?

Thanks for the help basically I need to know anything I will need to change or buy to switch to 7 bolt head so far I have the head and manifold that is all. The head is at the machine shop getting resurfaced and going to be modded to fit the 6 bolt arps. What else will I need to buy or change...

Ok instead of starting a new thread I am switching from a 6 bolt to 7 bolt head. With the heads I got two free intake manifolds. One is a venom and the other is absolutely stock 7 bolt. I have dual springs and retainers, hks272's. but a small turbo for now on around 30 psi. Which manifold...

Does anyone have the link to the page on rre's site? I can't find it and don't want any mistakes.

The head is from a 2g and I have 6bolt arps and block. What needs to be drilled/ done to the head to fit/ work on my setup? Please help. Thank you.

well since day one of owning my talon, i have lost volts under wot. the car had a speaker wire running from the alternator to the battery fuse. i replaced it with a decent size quality wire at least. new alternator, battery, and fuse. i have actually tried like 4 different alternators. so...

congrats!

i have a fp 18g with 1000cc rc injectors, aromotive afpr, and 1 255 pump. stock lines, and i know its bad even a paper filter. i have been running e85 and right around 30lbs of boost for a year now with no issues. i am getting 73% injector duty. and i daily the car. just for a refferance...

a little update. built and ported head with hks 272 and supertech dual valvespirng and retainers, is now on and running. i let the car idle for 15 mins. im gonna let it cool down check coolant and oil then drive it around the block a couple times and re tq my head studs. then it should be...

a little update. built and ported head is on. i let the car idle for 15 mins or so, no leaks and ran good. im gonna drive it around the neighborhood for a couple mins then re tq the head. we'll see what kind of power it makes in a couple weeks and then go from there and see if it's worth...

what color are the exhaust side ones supposed to be on the supertech valve seals? i just got my head back from a shop and the blue seals are on the exhaust side and the brown seals are on the intake side. is this correct or not? i was under the impression it was supposed to be the other way...

you can see my track video on the quarter mile challenge. lol my tranny wasn't the greatest so my 1-2 shift looks like you can make a sandwich in the mean time. i'll post a log. i just put the head on last night with the cams i'll be doing a bit of tuning this weekend. i'll most likely get a...

we are all here to help each other out lol what do you think i want some kind of trophy or something for a 18g record? lol and yes i agree i believe i am not @ 400 hp mark yet. although i did trap more than you and your over 400whp. those times were before cams and with a blown head gasket lol

i'm not dissagreeing with anything you're saying. the unpopularity of the 18g and lack of dyno sheets out there are the reason I made this thread. to see if there is anyone out there with some first hand experience with this turbo and supporting mods for it.

well acording to the dyno challenge on here the 18g makes more power than a 20g.

based on the stupid link calculations the car is making right around 400 hp right now. i just wanted to know how "bastard dsm" made so much and what little differences his setup has.all and all there is very little solid info on the 18g out there compared to every other "dsm turbo". but...

Thanks vinny. I'm most likely gonna get the smim then start looking to upgrade to a bigger turbo setup.

no dyno numbers yet. the car was on about 28lbs that night, i usually will pin my 30lb boost guage

No dyno ?
