daren_p said:if you have the cash a proper LSD will work wonder for traction. @ 18 psi anytime you punch it in 1st or 2nd you get wheel spin on spool up but if you learn how to drive you can still get pretty good lanches without much wheel spin.
2deep said:Your either lucky or need some more tuning. I used to break loose in 3rd once boost hit at only 15psi(ported&clipped). It made datalogging really frustrating, since it could only be done in 4th gear. I was planing on buying a Kaaz LSD, but I ended up finding an AWD for less than half the price of the LSD(+instal), so for me it was a no-brainer. You won't be dissapointed in the EVO3.
). You need quite abit of power to break the tires in third, but I guess this will depend alot on what tires you are running and suspension setup. I have 225's, ZR rated tires, which give me pretty good grip. Like I said I must be making some power if I can pull on a 2000+ corvette @ 17 psi with a couple boost leaks and running faily rich ~10.5-.8 air/fuel ratio.daren_p said:What kind of flow were you getting at 15 psi to break traction in 3rd? I see 33 lb/min but Im still on stock intake mani & cams (which will change when it comes out of storage).

2deep said:I was logging upto 36.5lb/min at 15-17psi. Suspension is stock, so that may account for some of the wheel spin. If your car is running properly with a half-decent tune, a stock vette shouldn't be much of a problem at all. I've raped several modded LS1's, they all had a look like this on there face when the rusty laser spanked them WTF . This spring will be fun. I bought and have been working on an AWD over the winter. EVERYTHING has been replaced/upgraded except for the tranny. I'm definatly looking for some 11's next season with the evo3.
Daren, your more than welcome to come along to Cayuga with me and a few friends....should be about 7 of us, with cars 12seconds or faster. DSM's and supras, should be fun.

I know what you mean. I'm only pulling in around 31.6lbs on my ported FP B28 with HKS cams at 20 to 21psi, when I should be pulling in around 38 to 39lbs. I'm also at about 2800ft above sea-level, if that makes a difference.rowlex said:I am quite surprised you guys are seeing 30+ lbs/min at 15 psi on the e316g. at 20psi i can barely pull 38 on my 60-1. Running an uncalibrated maft by any chance?![]()

. I've also put bus lengths on a B16 Del Sol with a 60 trim, he dynoed at just over 300whp. That race was from a highway roll starting at about 60mph. 2deep said:Well whatever I'm flowing at that boost level, its enough to spin my tires in third once boost hits. Anybody have any idea how much more airflow you can see out of a clipped turbo as opposed to a non-clipped?

rowlex said:I guess i looked at everyone's vehicle profile but yours. I see why you are flowing that much, but not the guys on stock engines

I'm sure theres not many ppl running an evo3 as heavily modded as myself. Most will go out and buy a huge turbo before they fully support it. Theres nothing wrong with that, but I just choose to build up everything first, and then have the turbo as the last peice of the puzzle. One day I'll be a proud owner of an FP3065
