I'm not sure I'll want to after seeing what someone just spent for a BW and what the twind cost and HAVE cost me :rofl::smash:

i think im choosing good with the turbo i want, dave agrees 100% with what i want to do, and with the amount of pipe length i should have i should get full boost from 3-4k all the way up to redline and yet still be well within the turbos efficiency rate

The turbo might be, but I doubt the engine will be given the hotside that you are planning on using. Everythings a trade off though. Can't escape physics in this world. On that note, the twins are not very effiecient. I'm giving up a TON of engine effiecency to get the response that I want. I put money that my EMAP sensor goes into diag while we're on the dyno >15psi

well as it sits right now from looking at the last dyno...my biggest restriction was the turbos... dave did a damn good job on my engine and its ready for a lot more power, if i really felt like pushing it i can honestly say that 500 shouldnt be much of a problem at all

its actually pretty sad...im running 850's all around on a stock pump only rewired, and i still had plenty of fuel to do more....my turbos just couldnt do it, or else they would have died a LOT faster then they did

btw the hot side im going for isnt all that big, and my manifold looks like its gonna flow very nicely so ill just have to see i guess

WE3RX7 04-20-2011 08:05 PM

I hate you all so much right now. Just wait....

I can see it now you show up at daves and tell him you are ready to run on the dyno and the jeep is sitting there you may as well get dark cloud Dave to strap his new truck on the rollers as well.

How is progress coming?

Don't worry... I plan on hitting 500+ after I have a job :) And most of that coming from an awesome intake manifold design.

I don't have a kid?... I think you're thinking of someone else. :lol::piggy:

Out of curiosity how long did prowire take to ship to you? I'm trying to get it up and ready for tuning by next week at the latest.

hades 04-21-2011 06:11 PM

ONE WEEK LEFT!!!! :willy_nilly:

I've already got one caliper here, the second was supposed to be overnighted yesterday but I haven't seen it yet. I was supposed to drive the FC out to Daves on Wednesday to get the tranny thing figured out but a few things happened, the tranny broke again, and I couldn't get brake pressure. I still had the stock cali's on, but couldn;'t get pressure from the master. I've got a different master :suspect: but I didn't have lines for it, those showed up yesterday afternoon, only a week late.

So I've got A master, and a few lines, still missing some lines, 4 rotors, 2 sets of pads, 3 calipers, and 2 sets of pads :banghead:

I thought about stealing the brakes from the 'vert, but they've been sitting stagnant for almost 4 years now, not sure I'd trust those on the dragon when my well lovefd brakes faded to nothing on the dragon.

All in all it's a horrible nightmare from which there is no escape...:willy_nilly:

Now that you reminded me, I had better run some fluid through mine since I rebuilt them :suspect:

I even painted them gold with that epoxy caliper paint so they now match all the black and gold suspension pieces :rofl:. On that note its a bit funny since I probably won't even keep the stance C/Os and hop on over to Zeals.

TitaniumTT 04-21-2011 11:40 PM

Hell of an upgrade.... have you ridden stances yet.... aside from my car?

Yessir, I've been on one of the original releases of them since they were first introduced.

I fly into the Nashville then drive out. I was going to a lake after the event, but that got cancelled. So I haven't decided when I will fly back.

They haven't sent me a shipping notification yet, so I get the impression they haven't shipped what I asked for yet. This puts me in the same boat as you (I can't readily put the harness together without the heatshrink on there).

TitaniumTT 04-22-2011 12:36 PM

I didn't think you had a kid. You said after the job you'll build something for 500. I'm saying I've heard that before. After you get the job, other things will get in the way, family, house, kid, mistress, second kid, etc etc etc...... much like 2010 was supposed to bne the year of the FC, then FC meant first child..... get it?

No... but that's okay. I probably won't understand for awhile. I just laugh at the thought of trying to get to 500 HP without a source of income or a place to call my own. :Lol:

Yeah I know, blows. Still trying but it's looking pretty damn doubtful. MOST of the brakes came in but I'm still missing some pretty key parts. And to make matters worse, I can't get even steal the parts that I need from the 'vert as they are in WORSE shape than the ones I got. Just to tease all of you though, I'm going to take some pics of the new brake setup and make you all green with envy, then I'm going to never show any of you :rofl::smilielol5:

If you need something to blame; blame prowire. I still haven't received my heat shrink I ordered. In fact I have received stuff that I ordered after it. They're taking their sweet time.:o10:
