New turbo dyno numbers ~325 whp and ~350 lb-ft

[Kohburn]

some cam timing will probably up that to 350whp (not the NA cam timing though - too much overlap) should take some cam timing tips from this thread

I should be making the prototype adjustable cam sprockets this winter.. that'll make cam timing easy enough to dyno several different settigns in a timely fassion

Oh yeah, the cam timing will certainly boost those numbers up, but its a matter of testing it out to see what works good. Ah, the fun of testing cam timing is in the air again haha! Look forward to the adjustable sprockets, i hope I get to test it out

Hot DAMN! those are awesome numbers for a Domestic V6.

Very impressive. How much did you end up spending on the setup?

[RednBlack]

Shit the bed Fred! Awesome! Truth to LQ1! Very worthy! HITF did the tranny handle that? I trashed 3 now. You do run A/T? I got xtraclutch, hardened plates, springs, Ford Fluid. Want FDR conversion.

Now, who thinks the LQ1 can't handle all the air pushed in it? I'll stay NA also.

Without a good tranny, all power is lost. Quote that.

Get a Track Time please??????

Some peeps on the site are pushing limits now.

Can't wait for 2006 Spring.

06 is gonna be sick

[RednBlack]

yup

I'm running a rebuilt 4T60E transmission with all HD parts, a shift kit, and hgiher stall speed torque converter. Somehow, fourth gear disappeared for a day and a half... It came back, but I've been told that it's an internal problem and it's fatal.

Every track within 6 hours seems to be closed for the season and I won't be home again until mid December. Hopefully I'll have some times this spring.

wow that is impressive......how much, a ballpark, did that setup run you.

[slick94prix]

Really makes me want to drop my high compression motor for a boosted one.

The current setup was probably around $5k including turbo, intercooler, Split Second FTC1, AEM WBO2, boost gauge, gauge pod, 42.5 lb/hr injectors, 3" exhaust, BOV, wastegate, all piping, all clamps and couplers, all flanges, all oil lines, all welding, all labor, and anything else I missed. The transmission rebuild is not included in that cost. If you wanted a tranny that would last, expect to add roughly $2500-3500 to that.

That same thing happened to me 4 years ago. Still driving this bitch hard. Not so fatal after all.

Awesome seeing that thing pull on the dyno Tim! And yes you did beat all the L67's except the 3 running nitrous.

Thanks! That's good to know about the transmission. I'll be getting a 4T65E-HD from a Bonneville and a 97 3.4 engine this weekend just in case (ah, the joys of credit cards...). I'll probably run my setup as it is for as long as possible, but will be planning the OBD2 swap and trying to ensure that everything is 100% ready before beginning the swap.

Dan,
When do you think those videos will be up? I'd love to see them!

Tim

[OldSkoolGP]

Yes, videos is good. I'll host if needed!
