track times, weight, ect..

well i weighed my car the other day.. it was 2800 flat.. full interior, 17inch rims, a floor jack, a car batterey(yellow top-heavy ****er) a jug of anti-freeze and a couple misc. parts.. so im figuring my car weighs about 2700 lbs.. i love the coupe

also ran my car at the track with the new t3/t4. at 9lbs my injectors are maxed.. soo i ran at 9lbs.. with a best of 12.95.. and a best of 108.86 mph.. so with just adding the t3 and a external waste gate.. and 2 less psi of boost.. i gained.. about 5mph.. and 8 tenths a a second.. not too bad... still waiting on my 550s.. so as soon it gets here its back to the track..

but my clutch is taking a ****.. so its time for that too.. so if your thinking of goin with a bigger turbo... get a good race clutch.. that stock one doesnt like 300hp thrown at it..

What T3/T4 are you running? Is it a .63 exhaust? What trim is the compressor? I was thinking a 50 trim compressor would be nice. Maybe even 57 trim (I don't care for the 54 trim)

[cyris3d]

its a 50.

How about the turbine size?

Ok. I would think a 48 AR would be a bit small for the 2.5L engine. I was thinking of running a .63 AR exhaust with a 50 trim compressor. I would also like to run an internal wastegate to save some $$. (I am broke!!) It looks like the a T3/T4 with a .60 AR compressor housing won't clear the manifold. I would need a spacer.

yea its bit small.. i got it really cheap.. soo it werks for now..

Damn. Good job! Nice light car too. You can almost compare that to a civic coupes weight... crazy.

actually thinkin about throwing my setup in to a 240z.. a good 600 lbs loss... should be good for 11s as is.. dunno what i wanna do tho
