Compound Turbo Setup Holset style

[Archer Fabrications]

I dont trust turbo lab, I'd get a batmowheel before i did that.

But whats with everyone getting upgraded wheels when dave put down 9.2 on the cast 60mm 6 blade

Tuning Monday night. Pretty excited.

This is going to be a fun week for you.

I just found this thread and just have to say that you have a awesome build going on.

Since you are running E85, have you consider using this Zeitronix ECA : SEMA Award Winning Ethanol Content Analyzer and Flex Fuel Sensor for E-85 and E-85/gasoline Blends

would take the guessing game out of how much ethanol is actually in your fuel.

John is already testing his fuel, albeit non-digitally.

Great build! Can't wait to see what this thing puts down for times!

Looking to see it blast down the track again this year john.

I had to pull the converter and send it back to them. They think there is an issue with it as it stalls damn near the same as stock and this is supposed to be the loosest converter they offer. While I have the down time I am sending my injectors out to get a good cleaning and hopefully I will have a week worth of testing on the dyno and the track.

Sounds like you might want to reconsider those Kelford 294's, if the smaller Precision converter is barely stalling higher there's obviously not much torque in that rpm range to multiply. By them making it looser you're going to lose some top end, I've seen it on other Precisions that members said they had made looser.

We already stuck some Evo 8 Kelford 280's John had in it. It didn't help that much. Even Precision thinks there is something wrong with the converter, so it doesn't necessarily have to be made "more loose" but just "normal" for a Precision converter. We tuned a 1G with a Precision converter and HX40 here last weekend and it worked awesome.

Like Andy said, I installed a set of 280s that I have sitting around for my EVO. When I had it on the dyno the car does not flash up to an rpm. It damn near follows exactly the same RPM path as the stock converter did. Another issue is that I am down about 50hp... There is obviously something wrong.

I sure hope its a converter tweek so this car lays down a number with no NOS....Fingers crossed

 

[talon3394]

Such a beautiful car!

After a shit ton of work before shootout I got to test the 2.0L. First couple passes were high tens trying to figure out how high I needed the 2 step. My best pass today was a 9.9 at 40psi. It should start picking up some serious power per lb of boost. I might just swap the 294s in there and see I can spool this converter with that cam.

Part out? What gives?

 

[Archer Fabrications]

Huh???

 

[Boostdclips99]

Huh???

2GB Talon 9 sec part out - DSM Classifieds

I saw it too and was a little shocked.

 

[viperlp01]

Its not as fun as it used to be. I want a car I can drive everyday, has AC, heat, a stereo, 4 doors, ect. It has been a fun ride. I learned a ton of stuff, built some cool shit, made good power, and went pretty damn fast for a 3000 lb car.

I have an Evo that I have been wanting to build all summer and all the changes and upgrades to the talon took all my time and money and seems like a never ending project. Time to move on.

 

[Purple_Demon]

Either way best of luck!

After seeing a 2009 CTS-V go for sale in the low 20k range and knowing that for another ~13k, a trip to Lingenfelter would have me 620rwhp in the lap of luxury.. I understand completely.

Still, was a cool project to watch come together!

Its fun building a different car.

Would rather have seen you do a compound setup on something with 8 cylinders. I hope this project treats you well for a while though.

Compound LSX motor....would be epic.

Lol how about a compound turbocharged 4.6L Mustang? The owner of the shop has the mustang and the turbos. We are developing a turbo kit for that platform now on his daily driven 02 mustang then moving into some 4 digit hp stuff.

On the evo I am going to be using the factory SAS(ALS/secondary air solenoid) stuff and I need to get better with the stock ecu.
