Twin Snail Build...

[1BADHRSE]

I have ford hot rod cams...

I had the idle at 1250 and drove her around all night... Little lean but shes very perky... I have a dyno appointment set for the 24 so WE SHALL SEE....

The vac is around 18...

 

[GrnBullitt08]

The FRPP hot rods sound good

 

[1BADHRSE]

Right before I took her for a spin....



LMAO ignore my commentary!!! LMFAO
You have no idea I felt like a little school girl...



Drove her for a while her a/f ranged from 13-17....

I cannot wait to get tuned... She sounds so beastly...

 

[1BADHRSE]

The first video you can here the turbos feeding back and forth... It does it so loud you can hear it with the hood closed! I was told it was normal for this type of pressurization back and forth...

 

[1BADHRSE]

This is what the turbos are doing... Sorry if its too loud...
THEY ARE NOT BACK SPOOLING... They are constantly sucking just harder when they get louder...

 

[GrnBullitt08]

My iPhone won't let me see the vids. I'll have to check them out in the morning.

Yea this is weird my iPhone won't let me either even though they are YouTube vids.. Very odd...

Congrats. I got to drive my car tonight for the first after my procharger install. Your car sounds badass.

 

[1BADHRSE]

Thanks man!!! Untuned at 0 degrees timing she wants to haul ass... I am hitting 9 pounds on a .5 accuator though... Should be 7.5 pounds to 8... Full boost little before 3200... I am running lean though so I will boost faster cause of the heat...

it sounded like your car was missing really bad in the driving video with just sound. that is a weird noise them turbos make never really seen twins its wild.

 

[RetroGT2006]

Sounds extremely badass dude, all that time and effort will soon pay off! Bet your excited, by the way is this stock motor?

 

[GrnBullitt08]

Sounds badass....are they suppose to be constantly wastegating like that, or is that the cams that make it do that.

Who's tuning it?

Oh yea that tune was shit.... I am going to tow it there I am pretty sure... 30-40mins away to get tuned...

I sound like a little girl man that whole night I was shaking... I am in LOVE...
Yes its the stock motor with HotRod cams... I am looking for a stock motor now though....

I had the idle set a 1300 so it should be better when i get tuned but it does it through out driving the car also...

Its not the wastgates doing anything. Its a very small amount of pressure building up in the pipes and sort of stalling one of the compressor wheels. It doesn't stop turning, it just slows down enough to let some pressure out and then it switches over the the other turbo and does the same thing. Our 05 with twin 61s did the same thing only slower due to the bigger turbos. If the bov was open at idle it wouldn't do it, but there is nothing wrong with what his car is doing. I wouldn't change anything.

I think it adds a little character lol... With the hood closed it sounds like Frankenstein....
By the way thanks for calling me yesterday and giving me the reassurance I needed...

 

[onequicktang]

y r you looking for another stock motor?

Either going 5.4 or finding another 4.6 to build for a good amount of boost... I suspect she will only last me this summer "maybe" if I am lucky...

Like I said I am on a half a Bar and I am creeping to 9pounds...

I can say it for sure now, "I am hooked on boost"...

 

[gt08vapor]

looking forward to what this will do on the dyno, then the track.
