What did you do to your DSM today?

[cswindel]

Finished buttoning everything up a few days ago. Just need to change the spark plugs and oil/filter and she's ready for 2026.

Also taking her to get the windows tinted this coming week. I'll post pictures after.

Hopefully everyone here is 18+ because goodness! Dont let the museum buy you out on this. What's the hot side?!

Edit: I just realized the porn joke has already been made. It seems we are all pretty like-minded here haha

Also i think its my AFR sensor based on my quick and dirty brake clean test. At least a new one is only $100 haha

 

[MindBlowin03]

That's a VERY FINE EXAMPLE of our cars, SUPER CLEAN Nick!

Thank you. I really appreciate it.

One of my all time favorite cars. Man.

Thank you. I really appreciate it.

Haha, great minds think alike. Thank you, I appreciate it.

It's a BEP t3 .70 hot side.

I love the manifold and wastegate placement. Once I can make any upgrade thats the first thing im gonna do is a new manifold setup because my WG placement is terribly difficult to manage to say the least

Cliff, you're on a HX35 aren't you? Did you do twin scroll?

No im still rocking that old Garrett 60 trim haha. One day I would like to try a holset or FP turbo. I still need to work out the tuning with the boost controller but right now boost kicks in at about 3.5-4k rpm. I dont know if its can get it to spool sooner but I know it can make more power.

And of course when the weather gets nice and warms up a bit my AFR sensor is shot haha. But I'll get it back up and running soon enough. Maybe I'll get it on Willow Springs when I get to Cali

 

[92AWDHX40]

Working on drive by wire pedal set up, interior pieces, mounted smim, and grounded it. Painting uicp pipes, going to detroit to work on cop harness setup with my tuner.

 

[Tiki2777]

Got my lazy azz moving and swapped my wastegate clamp to the more typical T-Bolt type clamp on the inlet side. With this top-mount manifold it's got little to zero room to properly reassemble the older-style sandwich clamps.

 

[CrackedDSM]

Pulled the trans and tcase out of the 1G so I can sell the clutch. Was bittersweet.

 

[Cisco3]

Started the teardown today on the way to a new build. Sideskirts, splash guards, bumper

 

[cswindel]

Well I think she is back in business. Got the new Bosch o2 sensor and was reading mint after that got plugged in. Pulled a log just in case though haha. WOT is reading in the low 12's on average, based on the AFR gauge, but is that too "lean" for these cars. Im hitting about 12psi at WOT so its not much boost but I know even a little danger zone lean can kill you even at low boost.

No knock? 12 is leanish . 12 is a good E85 target if you like to extract the most HP, but low boost 12 on pump gas is pushing it.

What does your HPbyAir say?

Ill have to look back at the log from today. Been working through it with Kevin Jewer since i had him tune the car and he didn't see any concern. Ill double check the max values the log pulled though

Made a new bracket to mount my mac valve to.

looks good - low boost - what does the Wideband say?

 

[cswindel]

Well thats the strange thing is that I could have guaranteed it was anywhere from the maybe mid-11 to low 12 but for the most part when I glanced im pretty sure the average was about 12 and thats really the lowest average I saw when I was getting into higher boost. I need to readjust for the combined FT but I dont think that will have much to do with the WB reading

I wouldn't recommend running push connect tubing that close to the exhaust. It has horrible heat resistance and after 3 dyno pulls, the hose connection to the wastegate melted. Never had issues with silicone hoses.

Do you have the Raw WB signal from your gauge/controller logged?

I realized......my idiot self swapped the ports on my Hallman MBC when I switched to AN fittings/Lines - This is why I had ~43+ pounds of boost.....
Of course this was after pulling my Tial MVR and swapping springs and taking my MBC apart....

But now I am properly testing my WG opening with my BLTs....so that's an improvement.
First drive with ~32.5 psi feels good! and the new Volk front LCAs, seems to make the car feel a bit more open, it's nice.

It's not going to be push to connect hose, that's from my old setup. New lines are all solid or AN braided as seen here:

Alright man you can't just drop these hard line pics all willy nilly. Ill be strapped to my desk all day

I should have it because my AFR is the only thing feeding to the ECU unfortunately. I dont have the narrowband stock O2. What's the nomenclature in Link for the display value that would bring it into the chart

EDIT: @Tiki2777 I think I have what you were meaning displayed now

I’m dissapointed from this community on FB…https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1DUTVgGLmH/?

Its on Fakebook. I don't have that, so the only comment I have is, get away from that place.

How well does it spool? I have one with a t3 .63 waiting to go on with a gasket ported cast manifold.
