Thanks man, I appreciate it. Definitely lots of time and hard work.

When are you taking her to the track? And to what track will you go to? I would love to see this car in person.

civicboy07

Once the tune is 100% I'll take it out and see what we can do with the radials. But I'm in northern indiana, so will probably go to a local track or us131 in Michigan

H.Veras

Well, best of lucks man and keep us updated.

civicboy07

Thanks man I will.

Love that color. Looks great! Lets see some dyno graphs!

Curious on that a1000 pulling from the intank 255.... Seems to me like that could cause issues later on... for the a1000... No?

Started tuning today on the dyno. Made 523whp on 19psi only revving to 8k on conservative timing. But pretty sure one of my injectors is having an issue. Going to send them to fic and then go back later.

Thanks. But I haven't had an issue with it like this yet and old stock sleeve motor was the same way on 32psi. Same concept of what most people use to do with a 255 intake and a 044 inline.

Figured I'd upload some other pics from today. Jason got some videos too so once he goes through them we will get some posted up.

civicboy07

Well, made 609whp today on 24psi. Jason was starting to work on timing some and we broke the diff in the trans. Good news is, revving to 9k gets me to 160mph so should be set for a decent trap speed.

Broke 4th gear on the dyno and the diff. Did get a new donor trans for parts and will be installing a quaife lsd

You guys are overloading the stock gears of that tranny with those big tires on the dyno.

civicboy07

I plan to switch to a smaller tire now, I was running them before since I had thought this was a gsr trans and needed the taller tire to help with trap speeds. Found out it was a ls trans on the dyno since revving to only 9200rpms was taking it up to 165+mph. We plan to also just do more tuning at the track once the trans is back together to see if that helps keep it together.

Any driving videos? I'm going to get the same turbo. Also, what you use for exhaust? the regurlar vband or the marmon v band?

civicboy07

I could post a couple that I have. Videos are only on 19psi and I have a video just crusing. Right now it's a 3" off the turbo then goes to 4" piping and goes out the bumper. Just using a normal v band. Cut off the one on the Borg and welded the new v band flange on.

civicboy07

Here is a idle video
Just cruising in 4th gear 3rd gear and 4th gear videos. still on lower boost and only revving to 8k but the does build boost fairly quick.

Speedo is off a good amount too haha

civicboy07

Got the trans put together today and back in the car. We were able to do a little tuning tonight and it's pulling pretty good on 24psi. We will have to do the rest of the tuning at the track or dyno. Here is a video with how it sits now.

Awesome build, love your car!

civicboy07

Thanks guys. Thing has been a challenge for sure, always seems to be something. Pretty sure I broke 3rd gear last night -_-
