I haven't mentioned some of the brands because I don't know the name.

My questions
(1)What is my HP with 30 psi on my T3/T4, do I have to use the GM MAF, do I have to use racing short block?
(2)What is my HP wit 30 psi on my FP3065, do I have to use the GM MAF, do I have to use racing short block?
 
:laugh: I wold have to say with a little nitrous you should have 800hp
 
You listed your tranny, radiator, and suspension in a thread asking about how much power you make :laugh:
 
You could make 400-600 horsepower with those two turbos at that boost level with those mods.

I never even knew they made an act 2400...

Or a 2.5" Intercooler. That's mighty small! OMG

And what's with the redundant replacement of parts that will work perfectly fine? Like going with an FP3065, but you have a huge 60 trim T3/T4. Both can make 400whp easy, on pump. Then you've ordered an EVOIII manifold, but where are you going to put the 40mm wastegate that's also coming in? And also, why so many different gauges? If you have the Greddy EGT, why replace it with an Apexi' brand? They both work the same.

But then again, you won't even make 160whp if you don't know what you're tuning w/o a logger. Get your parts "wishlist" straightened out and get it tuned right. :thumb:
 
Do you even have any of these parts you listed? Any idiot with an AFC and stock ECU can make 400whp, just bolt parts on and crank the boost.
 
and to answer your question, unless you are also running the 2.2 jiggawatt inducer valve there is no way your radiator will flow enough juice to inflate your 1.3 radiator cup

:p
 
Look guys I'm not trying to lie and I can post all the pics of my car.
When I said 2.5 inch intercooler, I was talking about the inlet and out let.
The guy who sold me the car said It's street ACT clutch,I'm not sure if he said 2400 or 2600.

I'm going to use the EVO III manifold with my Fp3065 with 40mm tial wastegate, now I'm using T3/T4 manifold+T3/To4e 60 trim, .63 A/R exhaust side, .60 A/R compressor side.

And about the gauges I have Apexi boost, greddy EGT, ATM fuel ratio, I got the other two gauges of apexi only to match the boost gauge and then I'll remove the greddy EGT and ATM A/F ratio.

Thanks for your warm welcome but I'll post all the pics soon
 
The pics will speak

were just playing around man.. i couldnt resist :) that looks like a pretty serious car.. you should spend a lot of time just reading through all the dsm forums and writeups you can find. there is a huge amount of information on this forum and dsmtalk.com and at www.vfaq.com. as for how much power you will make with that setup, all i know is that its a shitload more than my car.. 400+ seems pretty reasonable
 
I'm not happy with my turbo, I'm having alot of lug, I'm getting full boost in 6500 to 7500
when ever I shift the boost level drop then rise again, I have used manual boost controller for a while I rised the boost on the first gears to 11-12 psi and the boost level rised to 18 psi on the fifth gear, I think this is because of turbonetic wastegate, that's why I ordered the FP3065, I have heared it will spool faster than my turbo and will give me much more power than my T3/To4e.

Till what boost can the stock 1g block hold with FP3065?
I'm sure the 1g short block can hold with my current turbo charge because once my friend rised the boost till 26 psi with c16 race gas.

He had 2g short block+1g head+264 web cam+1g intake runner+1g throttel body, he used a littel bit smaller turbo than mine, the exhaust side was .48 a/r, but after a while he had connecting rod bearing fault that's why he removed all the parts and installed the 1g short block, because I have heared there is a problem with the 2g block something called crank walk! this will cause bearing fault If I wasn't wrong.

I have heared the 1g connecting rod can hold much more power than the 2g connecting rod but the compression of the 1g is too low compaired to the 2g, I think that's why he has much more power with less boost than mine!

I'm not trying to show my parts over here, I'm tring to learn to let my car as fast as I can, I'm trying to learn so I don't blew my engine for stupid reson.

I have ordered Lm-1 wideband o2 sensor hope this can help me to tune my car without dyno

thanks for the help, hope next time no body make fun of me.
Thanks again!

do a boost leak test ... I'm guessing you have a cracked vaccum hose or something. You'll be amazed how much difference that makes.
I did twice, I should I don't have leak now!
 
I feel I have that huge lag because of the FRH intake, I feel I didn't reach the HP that I need racing intake runner or because the 1g is too low compression compaired to the 2g
 
Props for saying your parts then backing it up. Most people say they got it and when it comes to proving it... they can't.
 
i think he is in Bahrain. Am i correct Alqatan?
About ur horsepower, i would suggest looking for a dynamometer (Dyno) so u can see ur front wheel horsepower and even tune ur car for better response and less lag. Good luck
 
I don't have anything to offer as far as your tuning issues but it's great to see you representing DSM out there!
