Re: On the right track?
Quote:
Since I made a mistake with the nitrous, not listening to my own experience it blew the end tanks off the stock intercooler so I took that opportunity to upgrade (also took out the intake manifold and holed a piston), dropped in a used engine from a Fusion (same engine minus the oil cooler in the ST) and bought a new intake manifold ($50). I also upgraded the turbocharger (GTX3071 Gen II) it has a .64 GT25 housing, might be too small for max output but that's not the concern at the moment. IATs have dropped to 50 degrees over ambient, so 70 degree day = 100F That is the combination of the intercooler and much bigger turbo than stock. Other circumstances mean I haven't really worked on this very much but starting today (as I write this) I hope to get back on track in much more detail. I have set two goals for this project in it's current configuration - 1) Break stock block 1/4 Mile ET/MPH record some say it's 11.51@121 mph 2) Break the stock block output record which is 527 whp which was achieved with an Aquamist system ironically. *If I break the stock block output record I think I can also break the fastest ST record which is 10.6@130 mph Stay tuned |
