Re-tuned ready for the track!

[TurboPete]

Well Im happy with the results , the Walbro's did there job.
Held pressure and a/f stayed nice and flat .
Base fuel pressure was at 41psi's so I still have plenty of room to turn the boost up to 27 psi's if I want .
It was very humid in the shop just finished raining so temps were 88* with the humidity more like 90*.

My previous pulls were done in November with the temps in the 60s made 836/848 at 23 psi's and 24*of timing.

Thanks to my buddy Willie Figueroa , awesome job as always.

The weather here has been terrible , humid as hell and rainning . Trying to get back to the track Weds or Friday next week .

Yes that was a long ,long day and I drove 110 miles one way to the track . Ran low boost and came out soft on the 2 step around 3600 rpms and 8 psi's . Still ran pretty good though.

Nice numbers, what psi, 23?

It was 24 psi's . with 22* of timing .

On the street it will make more power , same setting on the street gave me 26.6 psi's on the dyno it read 24.6 . so its gotta be more like 840 to 850.

Im hoping the weather gets better this week so I can make it to the track. Need to get a tighter converter also.

Hell of beast you got!

Looking back at some of your post, what is the reason to only run two pumps until about 9-10psi?
Just finished up installing all my fuel pumps and hoses today on my ride and was doing some wiring and got to thinking about it. I also looked the best I could down in the fuel tank to see if the pumps socks where still on my aeromotive pumps when I sit them in. I known their in the basket but might be pushed up on the ends a little bit on the socks.

nice numbers pete thats for sure cant wait to see what you get at the track. how does it drive on the street with that much horse or do you turn it down?

I have the boost down to 16 on the street , drives like a stock Mustang GT. Car is quite you would never know it makes 800 +. I dont drive hard on the streets but if I lay into it on brake boosting it will light up the tires from a 50 mph roll.

how much power you think it making at 16psi

 

[TurboPete]

6XX ?

Pete,nice numners as always but that setup is begging for an intake manifold and turbo grind cam judging by how the torque and power start to fall off up top. You would make the same numbers with 4-5 less lbs of boost.

Yeup thats why the power starts to fall . Stock Heads and Cams.
I already have a C&L Intake , I cant see spending 4k on heads and cam to pick up 70 hp if that . I can still turn the boost up more .
I think the combo still has another 3 to 4 MPH in it and 2 tenths in ET.
Need to tighten the converter and maybe go to 3.55s .
Im pretty sure it will pick up another 3 to 5 MPH with the converter and gear change.

In the future if I were to go with Heads and Cams , then I would build a stroker motor 323ci and move up to a 88mm and ID 2000s .

I really dont see that happening considering I have my Fox Body to start getting on it.

Before I spend that type of money on the 07 , Id rather buy a built Coyote motor for the Fox and slap a GTX 80mm on that and run mid 8s all day.

Leave the heads stock, I agree its not worth the money there, imho porting heads is for trying to get more power when the motor is sucking air through the heads (n/a setup) vice forcing air throught the heads. I really think our 3v heads with 2 intake valves 1 exhuast are optimum for a turbo setup considering how turbos like more intake duration/air and a bit less exhuast duration. Throw some mild na or turbo cams in there, something with a little more lift and duration which would be a relatively cheap route.

I think you will pick up more et and mph having a more efficient power band from the mid range to redline vice just upping the boost for more peak gains on the current setup, in which the hp/tq is still going to tapper off from 5500-6500 rpms.

Awesome man, can't wait to see her run!
