Good luck with yours man, taking mine back to the track sunday, fixed the clutch slipping problem(leaking input shaft seal) and the split IC is better still a small leak but waiting on new one to arrive. With all thos eproblems still managed a 11.7@125 with a crap 2.0 60'. Hope to break the 130MPH barrier this weekend, still have yet to turn on the spray so we will see.

Really nice car, nicer set up. I am not sure why people flamed you. You have a great set up and your 10 second goals are acheivable. The only thing I would have changed was buying a down pipe way before that huge turbo. So what if you are only running 12's with that set up. It was clear that you were there to get some base line runs and not trying to reach your ultimate goal. I dont know about most of the other guys here but I wasnt cast out of the womb running 11's. It takes a lot of time, money and practice. My set up is probly good for 11's...my first time out I ran a freakin 14.4 at 97 with a shitty 2.4 60ft. Should I get flamed for that? (I probly will) There has to be a learning curve. Dont listen to these pocket pool playing fruitcakes that ragged on your 12 sec time. Your doing fine. I am sure you'll be running 10's in no time.

I will definately slip the clutch but I dont want to break parts. How fast can I sixty foot with an anemic three bolt and stock center diff?
Im going back to the track tonight, they are open till 2am for Midnight Madness. My friend is bringing a trailer so Im not as afraid to break parts cause he will tow me back.
Anyone selling 272's

There are 11 second cars all over with 3 bolt rears. Don't worry about slipping the clutch, boggin is harder on the rear end than slipping out the clutch at high rpms.

I know this thread is a little old but as an update I found a couple problems with the car recently.

1. Every injector o-ring was leaking boost because me or my cousin had them reversed, the accordian looking o-ring was on the head side of the injector
2. I finally got around to throwing an engine cover on the car and base timing was retarded about 13degrees.

The car feel's alot faster now and although I have payed for a set of FP2's Im still waiting on them to get here. Track and Dyno time's are soon to come.

retarded 13 deg. means you were running 8 deg. ATDC base? Base timing should be at 5 deg. BTDC.

13's on a 3065.... not too good. but i hope you get all the kinks worked out and get her running some 11's or faster soon

 

[Nos~4G63]

I mean base timing was 13deg retarded from the 5deg base mark.

When pressure testing the intake, try energizing the fuel pump via datalogger to build pressure in the fuel rail. The fuel pressure might help the injectors to seal better against the head and be a better representation of whats going on when the car is running. Just a thought....

 

[Nos~4G63]

My datalogger took a shit

 

[anconover]

wow, fix those problems, and you might see 12's on that 9sec turbo. NICE JOB

I'm a little concerned right about now. This is one of the turbos I've been considering. I'm seeing these numbers and am starting to wonder if I'll go slower with this turbo. Currently running a 20g and have gone 11.05 @ 122.93. I'm a firm believer in properly matching components,tuning to the edge and driving like there's no tomorro. Go for broke !!!

 

[Nos~4G63]

Well please don't base your decision on what my car has done in the past..
It's running alot better now, I think its in the mid 120traps now on 27psi and am trying to get to the track soon.

Do a search on fast89lx, he has gone 9.9.@141 on 30psi with a 50shot on a eprom ecu and a vpc. You can also search for evil eagle, he went 120traps with a completely stock motor and a 3065!

I dont want to be rude but the times in the thread are very bad. The turbo will do alot more, if all the componenst are there and the tune is done right it will put your 20G to shame quickly.

If you've gone 11.05 on a 20g, then you obviously know what you're doing and will go faster with a 3065.

I tend to agree with you that a 3065 should, without a doubt, put the lil old 20g to shame.
Point is, so should a lot of other cars on DSM times with E.T.s. similar to mine. Problem is, we all know that what "should be" on paper doesn't always make it to the track. I agree 100% that properly matched components and tuning are crucial.

I wouldnt worry about it. You are almost in the 10's on a 20G I have no doubt that you would use all, if not most, of the potential of a 3065.

 

[Staytuned]

I would not worry either ...there are two FP 3065's in the top ten on DSM times.

I kinda wish I had got this one instead of my 3052....but hind sight is always 20/20 right.

You need to do more research before purchasing parts. If you have "x" goal, make sure "y" product can produce "x".

I want to make over 600whp with this car and consistantly run mid to low 10's.

The fp3065 has proven to run 9's with out nitrous, BUT it WILL NOT make 600whp. Especially not with you behind the tuning.

Dyno charts for fp3065, thanks to Forced Performance



More information for you, this is taken from Forced Performance's write up on it's newest turbo which is a hybrid of the 3065. this is the link.

This turbo was born from the FP3065 customers and sponsored race cars that were knocking on 600whp's door.

I will not flame you, though I agree with a lot of the sentiments that have been spoken here... This is a bit of advice I recieved when I announced my purchase of the same turbo..."Nice turbo, don't post your times till you are in the 11's or better with that turbo."

 

[Nos~4G63]

Thanks for the info...

I want 500-550whp on 30psi and c16, I have another 100 via a direct port kit.

Thanks for clarification. You failed to mention that as a mod -any reason why you left that OUT?, I have looked back over this thread and can not find wether or not you are using the nitrous on the spoken runs. are you?

One of the problems that you are having is throwing a lot of mods at your car, at once. It is generally best to go mod tune mod tune. It makes tracking down problems easier, and you have a problem. You are running nitrous and big turbo while putting down bad times.

You have your work cut out for you. Be persistant.

 

[Nos~4G63]

I sprayed it a few times before the turbo went, I havn't used it since I got the injector seal and timing issues worked out.

And no I havnt used the bottle at the track and thats why I didnt list it as a mod, I do plan on using it in the future though.

I dont know wtf is going on with Forced Performance, The cams were paid for months ago.

1st run I get the jump:
http://daemonsync.org/runs/ToH_vs_03cobra_nohonk.wmv

http://daemonsync.org/runs/ToH_vs_03cobra_40roll.wmv

Second gear 40mph roll. Cobra has intake, exhaust, chip and pulley(118mph traps). Im on 27-28psi and 110 octane(11.8 on the wideband). Notice the lag issues. My car is definately way faster than the cobra, but even with wot shifting he is only a couple cars back(he lets off when I throw 4th). I dont blame the lag on the 3065, I blame it on big intake mani and stock cams.
