the compressor map i was looking at on the Garrett website looks like about 70lb min. That being said there are a few people who have made more than 700 hp. I know Tim Zimmer being one of them. As for the boost i will probably not take it past 30 psi. that is a guess though at this point because i will raise it up until the tune becomes unsafe. I am looking to make a little over 700 hp, so far i think i am on track, time will tell though.
Wow! That is a ton of power for 20 pounds! Im pretty sure if you get it up around 30-35 pounds you'll be over your 700whp mark. A guy I cruse with has an AWD spyder with a 2.4 stroker and a gt42r and he makes about 675whp on a conservative pump gas tune. He did tune it e85 once and get around 815whp but that car spools fairly slow. If he doesnt hit 2step, my buddys 275whp 16g car rapes it till about 60mph
Congratulations man. I am very glad to see people interested in the question of high compression with E85.
I will be back from Japan Sunday. Hope you are ready to turn the boost up. Hope you got the Nitrous Express kit installed too. Screw the tach and speedo for now. Those will be easy to fix. We want to see 800hp and 650tq. 35psi and 125shots remember? Now that you got your daily driver, we want to see that car destroy some tranny parts.
nice build...where did you get the 6 bolt 4g64 crank from?
that motor is sex... FINALLY someone with high compression.. im next on the list
if your engine is really 13:1... which it looks like the pistons are maybe -3cc.. which should put you over 12.. then i feel like a wuss only going 11:1... granted the pistons i have are custom manley's that i bought brand new for 400... cant argue about that.. also im going with an aluminum rod..so...one thing.. do you know how much your pistons weigh?
