Revival thread

[Blyman93]

To some this may be nice to participate in and express different builds and power accomplishments, to others mayne you just pass on to the next. There was a lot of innovation and records being set a time ago and this platform grew very well but I feel hat has slowed way down. My goal here is to get some of the more seasoned builders to share their upgrades and current power/time break throughs. Not asking for a build novel, just a quick few details like "big turbo, built lower end, fuel type etc and where your power/drag time is today. My hope is to see where various members are at with their builds and pave the way for good discussion,ideas, what worked and didn't, and of course higher HP. Again this is geared for those that have gone beyond FBO and moved into engine work, turbo swap, fuel conversion etc. Chime in guys!!

Getting mine dyno tuned next week wednesday, will post results here!

 

[Blyman93]

Looking forward to it. Always welcome Vargas dyno numbers! Is that the + or standard S2? Lastly are you using a pump gas tune?

 

[OxWhiteEB]

Standard stage 2 twinscroll, on 92 octane. Gonna add wmi as well though, so numbers shouldn't be disappointing

 

[Blyman93]

Seattle! Dude tell me your going to the formula drift August 4th!

Back on topic: would love to see the MW numbers

 

[OxWhiteEB]

LOL, sadly I will be away during the summer :(

 

[Blyman93]

NO! I would have loved to see your setup. Ugh, well dyno it is. And hopefully some videos ;)

 

[OxWhiteEB]

Results will be delayed lol. Found out my turbo is oil leaking, also got the wrong kit for my wmi. What else could it be hmmmm...

 

[Blyman93]

Wrong kit? How?

I guess I'll stab at helping.

First tid bit of advice - don't spray a dry shot of nitrous when also running on ethanol and no tune for the nitrous :headbonk:

Second, my car is built motor now (Tune+), Vargas Stage 2+, Esslinger Stage 3 cams, full E85 with Tune+ Aux Fuel setup. Looking forward to getting the car fired up this weekend finally, after a painful 7+ months of saving, spending, buying, rebuilding, breaking, reassembling, etc.

I won't be looking for some big target HP goal on a dyno. I mean, would it be cool to put down the biggest number ever? Sure. But for me, the number(s) that matter will be 60', 1/8th mile, 1/4 mile, and trap speed.

I'll do my best to continue to input updates here at M6G, and am in the process of updating my build thread to be current w/my progress now. And in the intermission, I'm also keeping FB, IG and YT updated with photos, videos, etc.

 

[Blyman93]
