benson + earl + onefab + autologic + st00pid = one happy customer 358 hp 230 lbs
So my car got tuned finally, after some draw backs and dealing with some bad **** that happened to my car, it is done. After 5 months
Runs were made on 17 psi, conservative tuning because mexican gas is as shitty as in Cali,
i could go way up, but i just wanted to keep it safe, so we didn't throw any race gas, i would be going back to houston in a few months for a retune on race gas, Turbo is capable of 680 HP.
Setup is 84 mm bore Block, B16, Benson Sleeves, CP Pistons, Manley Rods, Ferrea Springs and Retainers, 3 angle valve job, Victor X intake mani, One Fab exhaust mani, Precision GT35 61 turbo 60 AR, Neptune, tuned by st00pid, Tial 40 mm WG, Greddy BOV.
Low Boost is 14.25 psi, high boost is 17, drove the car from houston to mty, 400 miles with open down pipe, tomorrow i am getting my exhaust, car hold up great all the way back with very hot conditions i think it was over 90 F. Only problem were the federales in mexico, i got stopped like 5 times because of the exhaust.
I should be getting some videos tomorrow with the open down pipe, might be going wednesday to the track to race a super charged 350 Z.
I definately need a quaife, traction bars and Drag radials.
Thumbs up to Earl Laskey for the engine assembly, he really hooked me up, excellent work, he replied like 40 mails i sent him, like 5 phone calls, with me speaking some spanglish, a very very honest person, i appreciate what he did for me, and also Mr. Benson for the amazing work he made on the block.
matt at onefab, excellent work on the AC compatible mani and all the piping, and because he was always available to talk to me when i was in mexico, amazing customer service. Matt the bets are still on when is your engine going to go kaboom.
Brad at Autologic and Jay for getting the car running right(they worked on many details so i didn't had a problem driving the car back to mexico. They put the engine on the car and assembled everything back.
st00pid for the tuning and taking the time to answer my questions, and for taking me to greyhound , he was dissapointed that i didn't want to go with race gas, i think the setup is easily capable of over 600 hp.
Boostfed for supplying the parts on time.
There is one person that is not included on the equation due to health problems.
I would get the dyno sheet scanned tomorrow at work.

Nice setup... one question though..
Why Sleeving for only 350 whp? Or are you gonna shoot for more in the future?
I believe the stock sleeves will be good for 400whp

i know stock sleeves are good for 400 whp, and the car going to be tuned by st00pid it would be a piece of cake, butttttttttttt, problem is i live in monterrey mexico, its like 500 miles south of houston, we have shitty gas, this is my first turbo car, so i just wanted to keep it safe, besides the car is daily driven, barely is going to see the track, and most of the streets here are asphalt not concrete so no traction.
I just wanted to do it right the first time, i visit houston frequently so i can go for a retune with race gas on the future.

One of my favorite CDs is Seven Mary Three and for all you Rodrigos out there!!! I know it has an extra E in the name BUT oh well!
"Roderigo
"he's a real cannibal." she goes:
"I think I'll call him roderigo"
dress him up in darker clothes, sell him away
standing underneath her gun
"sit up straight or I'll hurt you"
you know he's not her only son, just the strongest
"I'm the real animal." she goes
she wants to call me roderigo
tie me down with all her ropes, until I can't breathe
she can't help but beat me down
into a brand new roderigo
I'll slip away without a sound, into the air
tied him down to her tree
stayed fit to name him what he's going to be
tied him up with her rope
you know it stained her neck but it can't hold roderigo "
