HeavyIron Posted April 5, 2009 Report Posted April 5, 2009 Definitely on of the benchmark vehicles on this site. Way to go Hussein and thanks for inspiring the rest of us. Quote
Auburn T5 Posted April 6, 2009 Report Posted April 6, 2009 Excellent complilation! This thread seems to lack all the drama involved with that 20g install though hahah!out of curiosity... why the larger throttle body if the pipes all leading to the TB are smaller diameter? Seems that the larger TB inlet is useless without the appropriate diameter increase of the rest of the piping leading to it?? Quote
Iloveboost Posted April 13, 2009 Report Posted April 13, 2009 Wow. Car is gorgeous!! Amazing to see nothing was done half ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD. Looks great!! Quote

Seems that the larger TB inlet is useless without the appropriate diameter increase of the rest of the piping leading to it??I don't know the math/volume/flow, whatever - you would think it would cause a pressure drop, & delayed response and maybe it does on low-flow turbos- but, it feels very responsive with the 19T & 20g setup. I don't know if running 3" all the way from the turbo would make any difference - the outlet of these turbos is still only 2", so if there's gonna be a drop, it will occur in any event. Quote
lookforjoe Posted April 14, 2009 Author Report Posted April 14, 2009 dont sell it...Believe me when I tell you I have absolutely no desire to part with it! Finding any other wagon that pulls the way this does, handles the way it does, just ain't happenin'. The bottom line is I love my wife, and want to stay married! Logic & rational thought do not enter into the equation!We'll see what happens after Carlisle... Quote

Canadianplat855 Posted May 4, 2009 Report Posted May 4, 2009 I hope you don't sell this car. All the things you do are just awesome. We are lucky to have someone like you on this board. Love the car. Quote

What are the latest dyno numbers? From Carlisle... 282WHP 317WTq - too lean to run over 17.5psi - Once I get TurboTuner (should be out in a couple of weeks!) & install my 625cc injectors, I'm assuming I will be able to run the 22-24psi that I want, and make some nice numbers!

Spanky Posted June 22, 2009 Report Posted June 22, 2009 First time ever reading this thread ..... very nice work!!! Hopefully you will get some great numbers when you get the tuning down. Quote
