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

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?

Might as well be backwards

What did Dave end up getting?

Here's a pic, nothing really has changed except that now the bay is clean.... and I have 198 hours left!!!

Lemme put it to you this way... I had a few parts made, and while I was in Cali I got word that they were done. This was on 3/31, thehy were "done".... do I have them yet? NO!!!!

I tried that with the GoPro when I hauled an engine... was hoping for a video instead I got like 10000 pics instead. That would've be fricken sweet!!

just get some software to make a vid out of those photos.... i mean, when you speed it up you are grabbing only so many frames anyway...

Thanks for that mental picture I was trying to eat before I go to sleep now I need to clean the keyboard and will have nightmares.


BTW brian I want to see your dyno sheets for the twins I'll bring mine with me

I'll gladly post them up when I have them. I told someone I was going for 440rwhp, the reply, "ok cool have fun with that man."

Hey.... don't forget I still have more than 2x your rwhp

Doesn't everyone????

[2gslse]

I just want to see the torque curve with the twins vs. a small single since the hp is similar.

[helghast7]

cant exactly be a small turbo, just the right size turbo to meet his port flow as well as his charge pipe lengths

its got to be the hardest fucking part of the whole process

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 standing record for me to beat is 52 hrs.... You sure you want me back in Cali for that 3-rotor

Where have I heard that one before.

The 20B is gonna be FUN.
