    Hey Ben!
    It does have a custom intake now. I'll get pictures out once I clean it all up. Not looking so good yet.

    Turbo is a T3/T4 set up T04B V trim .60 cold side, 0.63 hot side.
    Injectors are Ford 35 lb low impedance
    Fuel pressure is stock, roughly 42 psi
    10:1 compression
    3100 pistons, bored 0.5mm over
    194 cubic inch
    H260 cam.....still, don't remember all specs off the top of my head, but I think it's 112 lobe seperation, 0.427 intake and 0.454 exhaust
    Using Innovate LC1 wideband.

    Need anything else?

    I'm at work right now, but I'll send the MSQ file when I get home. It's not even close to right yet, but I'm sure you have a better idea than me.

    Nice What happened to your custom intake manifold? Hell, I didn't even remember you were doing turbo. Shoot me your tune file and ill check it out. I have some experience with megasquirt, and turbo cars now Ill need the engine specs/cam specs/injectors/fuel pressure. What size turbo are you using?

    Thanks guys! And yes, that's all the 94 octane my little gas can would hold. I need to get more already.

    Ohio seems like a lifetime ago Jon! I took so many people for a ride that day, my brakes were fading from doing so many 0-60 runs in a city I was unfamiliar with, and not in my own country.....lucky I didn't get the wrong type of attention that day.

    Good going, Franz

    I remember riding in that car at the GMF/S10F/60v6 meet in Ohio when it was the craziest NA Cavi out there.

    BTW, you only have 1/8th of a tank of gas

    started a topic 3 years later.....it finally runs!!

    3 years later.....it finally runs!!

    3 years ago I posted that I got the engine in the car. Yesterday it idled on it's own for the first time since December, 2004.

    Here's a video from 2 days ago. Wouldn't idle on it's own yet, so I had to feather it to keep it going. This is with only 3' worth of exhaust off the turbo. Idle is somewhat fixed now, but needs tweaking. And it's time to tune.

    Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.
