Thank you,Originally posted by WMCCjames View PostWelcome, I remember seeing your car friday...nice...tell us about the mods!!
The mod's include:
* Rebuilt 2.5L engine with focus on improved oiling and higher RPM capability and improved reliability (forged pistons)* Larger valves, bigger cam's (4 of them... ouch $$$)* 740cc injectors with upgraded fuel pump* Front mount inter-cooler, cold air intake with larger MAS housing* Forced Performance Red turbo (30psi capable)I tune the engine myself with help from a few "pro's". It makes 380 AWHP on 93 octane fuel. I took it to the track finalize the tune a couple of weeks ago. My goal was to launch it easy to avoid breaking another axle then go for best trap and tune from there. With a very soft launch (3/10's of a second slower than my normal 60' time) I ran 12.29 @ 115 on pump fuel.
A friend of mine on the west coast is running high 10's @ 131 in the 1/4 mile with similar mods & race fuel but he is starting to break driveline parts. I may go for a bit more power using race fuel (VP 109) next year but I want to minimize the potential to break parts (ha, really I am building up my bank account).
Thanks for asking about my mod's...
I look forward to seeing your group at future meets.
