Oh she’s gunna bark when those gates open!

Well we have lift off. Finished everything Saturday night and started street tuning Sunday afternoon. Had a few hiccups but got them ironed out. I added spark control, speed, and boost control to the Holley. Factory ecu is now only controlling the throttle body and direct injection. Everything works as it should. 3lb springs in the gates. Added 5lbs of dome pressure and it made 7.6lbs of boost. Can’t wait to hit the dyno and test the scramble button

Thanks. It’s been a long road with this install. I have to thanks a friend Clark Trost. He helped me a lot with tips for the install.

It’s going to be a beast!

I’d like to know more on the piggy back of the Holley system.

& Slightly off topic, but I have to know so spill the beans on the carbon steering add-one & the radiator cover.

Trufiber and octane motorsports for radiator cover

Many places sell the wheels like wildhammer. You can go directly to the source Shenzen Bo speed order how ever you want for about 100 to 200 bucks cheaper. You can use whatsapp to talk from 7pm to 5 am.

So I went to the dyno last Saturday. Had issues with boost falling off after the gates opened. Was pretty frustrating. On the way home I realized I was really low on timing and that contributed to the problem as well as probably needing a loaded dyno. It made 914 at 6000 rpm on 15lbs. I know it would have made more of the boost wasn’t falling off. My plan was to stop at 20-21. After I added a few degrees the car really woke up on the street. So I’ve just been street tuning it for the past few days and it feels really good. Only downside is, it’s a dog off the line. DEFINITELY need a converter! Doesn’t make any boost until 4500 rpm in first and only gets to 7 lbs. I expected that so it’s not really an issue for me as I’ll be doing a converter and built transmission over the winter. I also remade the top section of charge pipe to make it a little more aesthetically pleasing. Overall I’m happy with everything and will be testing the car at a rental the 20th. Can’t forget to thank Joe Schneberger for some tuning help as well. I changed the tune to speed density and it drives better than it ever has! Pic of the bad dyno sheet and revised charge pipe below.

Going this Tuesday. Not expecting the best because of no converter.

gtfoxy · 10-18-2020, 12:46 PM

Who do plan to go through for a converter?

laynlo15 · 10-18-2020, 06:23 PM

That will be tough to launch a turbo car with no converter. Good luck
