I would like to see under boost AFR around 11.5 to 12.0 and no higher.

Idle doesn't really matter as long as it is not smoking.

Thanks

No numbers yet. I am going to square a few small things away before I bring it back to the Dyno. Should have numbers in a few weeks. I expect 275-325 on 11-15lbs of boost.

Car is currently running 11psi through all gears. Plan to move it up to 15psi once meth injection is installed.

Should have dyno numbers in a few weeks.

The full throttle issues was caused by having a restrictive carb hat on it. Changed that out and it runs great. Will get it back to the dyno shortly. Had to cut a hole in the hood to get the new carb hat to fit, this is a short term solution and I will come up with something a bit more astheically p...

Some quick vids of it running.

Car still has some bugs to work out, currently is running great on 10psi at half throttle, but is having some issues at full throttle. Will try to sort it out in the next two weeks.

I think the bigger question is around the specs of the turbo itself and the housings. I think you can get something better than the standard GT35 and for cheaper. If you would like to me spec out what you should be using, I can get you a similar setup for around $750 USD. I am going to be running a ...

I appreciate all the input and am very excited to see how the car does react given the components installed. I realize that the manifold and carb are meant for high end power, but in talking to some industry experts they stated using the single plane was the only way to go and a dual plane intake wo...
