I'm approaching dyno time on my fully built GSR turbo setup in my EF hatch and am looking to get ~400 whp. This will be my HIGH BOOST setting and only be used at the track. I would just like to hear experiences with anyone else who has a setup with similar power in an EF since the power/weight is so crazy. Let me know, thanks!

Here's my setup just in case:
B18c .5mm overbore
Pauter Rods and Arias 10:1 pistons
ITR Cams with ITR valve springs/retainers
JDM Y1 LSD Tranny w/Action 2md clutch and clutchmasters 8.5 lb flywheel
Spoolin Quick 4 Manifold
Precision SC50 .63 a/r Turbo
Tial 38mm WG
HKS SSQV BOV
AEM True Boost Controller
RC 1000cc Injectors w/ High Flow Fuel Rail and Aeromotive FPR
AEBS Intake Manifold
68mm TB
3" DP/ Exhaust
Neptuned by st00pid (pending)

The suspension is also completely redone as well as a traction bar to be a partially streetable rr/drag (partial raked too) but mostly this car will be strictly used on the rr and drag tracks.

Hmmm... guess there aren't that many...

Anyone?

Good luck with your search for power. You should see it @ between 14 and 16 psi. Depends on type of dyno, intercooler, exhaust etc. lots of fun but you'll probably need something like BFG DRs for street driving (at a minimum) and still won't have much 1st - 2nd gear traction. Electronic boost control helps that can phase in boost as speed increases. With those injectors you have lots of fueling 'headroom' for future increases in power.
I have 10:1 Arias also and used water/methanol addition for extra insurance.

It is pretty insane. Lots of spinning. About the only time you can use the power is on the freeway.

mine is making about 325 (dyno'd at 300.08 before the new cam i have in), and its pretty wild.. spins tires all through 3rd if you want it to.

its a SOHC though

what exactly are youlooking for ?

I'm basically curious if it's going to be overkill with a lot of useless power and no traction. I will be using BFG Drag Radials btw. The AEM true boost allows for dual boost settings so I'll probably stay low boost (~300 whp) through 1-2 and hit high boost for 3-end...

I'm not looking for a dyno queen, I just want to be the fastest possilbe without having to get wheelie bars and 34235235 inch slicks...

A buddie of mine just finished his 458whp LS/VTEC EF last week...

I went for a ride in it and it was pretty much tire spin till about 60mph with him driving it. Once he gets his AVCR gear driven boost settings working i am sure its going to be more useful...

We took it through some of the corn field area strechs of road and he let me get behind the wheel of it. I grabbed second to thrid at about 8k and it left about 25-30 feet of rubber with the road... with a drag radial.

So yeah, its pretty fun

nothing like useless power to put a smile on your face.

i'm being 100% serious. haha geeze, i cant imagine having 50% more power than i do now. that'd be nuts

QuarterMileMaster

Hmmm... I guess I'm going to have to see for myself...

urbansi

Yea well i thought it was bad until i heard that he is going to run a GT3582R and possibly throw a little direct port shot to it.

The car just got up and running and he is already sick of it.

I told him to atleast get used to the power he has, but i guess 450+ is only enough for him for the first week

BTW the car only weighs 2015lbs.

QuarterMileMaster

Geez, he's crazy. I'll be happy with 400, at least for awhile I'd think. If I play my cards right I'm hoping I should be able to hit 10's after it's all said and done. I just refuse to get beat by a stock car and it practically takes being in the 10's to beat the new c6 z06's...

urbansi

I would be very impressed if your car went into the tens with the hp you are looking at. I am not saying its not possible but...

Yeah, i'm not sure it will either but I kinda have a knack for driving but again, we'll just have to see, time slips talk in this sort of situation...

The problem I mainly have is I need some running room. The car just keeps pulling and pulling. Very nice. BTW I might have to look for you on the roads.....yes....indeed.

raene

If you're talking about a factory diff (Y1 with LSD) it might not hold for long at that power output. Might want something a little beefier.

Make sure you have a ******* good alignment done too. The more accurate the better, my car likes to cross lanes at WOT I'm probably mid 300s or so, don't know for sure - maybe I'll dyno this winter.

Yeah, it's the factory LSD but I've heard of them holding up pretty strong but that's another thing that time will tell. And yes, I will definately have a good alignment...

This is very true, once vtec hits hold on, with both hands.

Oh yes, both hands will be firmly at 10&2 or 9&3 depending on my mood...

I am making 362 on my EF as well and it pulls hella crazy! Unfortunetly had a minor set back and plan to hit the track soon on a race tune with at least 450-475.

^^ you copied my location haha...

Yeah right dude, when that new corvette pulls up beside you on the freeway youll crank her up and give it a go.. haha. Lots of fun..


Raene, how in the hell did you go 11.1 @ 108mph? You musta slammed on the breaks pretty good neer the traps.

yeah, I really meant more like I'm not going to try and launch on the street with 400+ whp...

I am not going to be launching my car hard, maybe just rolling on it at the most. Mainly, I am just going to use my car's power:weight to my advantage once it is already moving. I am picking up the BFG drag radial's next week most likely. I'll let you guys know how it goes, I am going to make a bunch of videos too.

Garage 808 Hatch

i had 463 whp in my ef. ran 10.43 @ 137. have fun in 1st. even on 25 inch M&H's i spun. got down to a 1.64 60'. have fun

turbo boost
