Did this thing make it to the dyno yet or what?? Also u wouldn't be able to help me out with how the msd injectors seal to the intake manifold would ya??

[HighPsiS13]

Hey Spanish did you ever manage to get faster than that KA-t? lol. DD is a friend of mine for several years now im just poking fun at you man no harm intended.

No harm done. Especially since last time we raced, I was the one in front.

But we both have new setups now, so perhaps some more summer fun in Mexico is in order?

[spanishricer]

Not yet, I changed some stuff around this week. Decided to do E85, so taking out the 1200cc RC Engineering injectors, and bought some Bosch 1600's. Also bought a second Bosch pump, and some new lines and filters. Going to do twin in-tank pumps, and duel feed the fuel rail.

Solow, not sure what rail you're using, but on my Greddy rail, I had to use some o-rings from an EVO to fit them properly.

[Solow240sx]

Im running the jgy fuel rail they fit great in the rain but wandering how there gonna seal to the intake manifold, they fit in the stock injector cushions but shouldnt there be another oring or way to seal them??

OH SNAPPPPPP!!! Im going to have to call DD out on that one lol. Did he finally go sr or does he still have that garage full of 'expendable' KA's lol.

Which manifold are you using again? Greddy, right?

He's still KA-T.

His new setup is pretty sick.

Yeap im running the gready intake manifold...

I'll have to get back with you tomorrow or Tuesday. Intake manifold is locked up with the car in the shop.

[Colin1337]

wow dude, this is such a nice build!if i didnt live in California, and i happened to win the lottery, i would use this build as a guideline

Sick just sick

Hey man i got a couple questions for ya, what spark plug gap are u running, or were u running?? Im not sure where i should gap my plugs i got the ngks in heat range 8, Also where did you put your map sensor and how did u hook it up??

I was running NGK BCP7RES plugs. I believe the part number has changed though, to 3330. They came pre-gapped, so I never had to touch them. If you need to gap yours, try .025. The plugs held 20psi fine last year, but I'm not sure how they will do with 30+psi.

I haven't installed the map sensor yet, but will probably mount it behind the intake manifold, on the firewall, and run a line to it.

[Solow240sx]

Ic i was going to thread mine directly into the bottom of my intake manifold in one of the holes with the plugs but im not sure if there all 1/8 NPT i will find out today i guess! lol Also do u no where to wire both the ait and map sensor too im assuming the ecu but not sure where to at it..

[captainfalco]

Where did you get the Kognition panel from? I contacted him and he said that the mold is long gone.

[spanishricer]

I bought it straight from Kognition. But this was about a year and a half ago.

[spanishricer]

Also do u no where to wire both the ait and map sensor too im assuming the ecu but not sure where to at it..

I'm not sure. I wasn't going to touch the wiring. My tuner is supposed to install the AEM and injector driver. Might want to check out the AEM forums.

Hope that helps.

Quick question about your old setup. I just bought a GT30R with no turbine housing and I'm trying to decide between the .63 and the .82 ar. How did you like the .63 ar you had?? Which would you get betwwen the 2. Did you have a T31 2.5" outlet or strait GT 3" or Vband out? If you made 460whp at 20psi do you mind me asking what kind of dyno you were on and will you post the plot for me so I can see what to expect. Thanx

[Philipio]

Still coming to the dyno day this Saturday if your car's not ready Sean? Looks like you have a lot of last minute changes.

I had the 3" 4-bolt outlet. Tough call on which housing to choose between, because I really don't know what plans you have for your car. The single scroll GT3076R will never be a "fast" spooling turbo on a 2.0L motor, no matter what housing you have on it. So I would go for peak power and the .82 a/r.

Here is an old dyno sheet. It plots my stock motor setup, to my built motor setup. Same turbo/manifold/etc...just more headwork and a bigger cam on the exhaust side.

I'll be there, whether the car is ready or not. We're still trying to get everything for the E85 conversion together and installed, but the holiday weekend is making the parts take longer to get here. Very slim chance it will be tuned and ready by Saturday.

[kentuckyslider]

I've got all my gaskets and coolant and oil feed parts ready to go on. All I need is the housing and a flange to weld my DP up to.

WHERE CAN I GET A GARRET .63 AR HOUSING ON THE EAST COAST or gulf coast??

I've always delt with ATP turbo out of Cali but I don't think I can get it by Friday with the short week. I really need a housing and flange by Friday so I can get it on and run the 1/4 The 30th.

[spanishricer]

D&W Performance?

They are based in the east coast.

Kentucky, Please post up your 1/4 mile time when you get it. I'm itching to run mine and your setup makes the same/ a little more power than mine, and granted you have a couple of hundred pounds on mine car (S14), but it will give me a good idea of what to shoot for. Doubt I'll be able to pull your 1.5-1.7 60 ft's though. I'll be running on Hoosier 225/50R16 autocross slicks, but they should hook up decent.

sick build..!

[Uberck]

yo whered you go man. whats been going on. back on the road yet? new dynos?

[boriquaS13]

anyone home any updates

Got rid of my 18" Work wheels and picked up a set of these:





17x9 +15 and 17x10 +20 SSR Professor SP1 wheels.

And with the tires that I hope will hold 600whp...



Mickey Thompson ET Street radials in 275/40/17.

I'm not sure of the exact difference including the tires, but with just the wheels, I was able to shave off 5lbs of unsprung weight per corner. The car handles, steers, and accelerates much crisper than when I was rolling with the Work wheels.

They don't look white as hot, but it was a sacrifice I was willing to make.

what wheel disk are you running in the fronts
