There is nothing wrong with turning the boost up to reach your desired power level. 250whp is cake for a ls bottom end

 

I do agree. If we could of turned the boost up to 10 psi, you would've seen 250 hp.

But HP can be found in things like exhaust, although you are pretty much stuck with what you have when you keep a/c and power steering. The easiest way to make the power is turning the boost up. Your setup is already solid.

 

i remember the first time i boosted...i took my car out let it warm up...pulled over looked for anyleaks ...none...i got on it in 2nd and the freakin BOV scared the crap out of me...lmao...i was hooked


WELCOME TO THE DARKSIDE

 

it looks like i will be getting a boost controller then, would you guys recommend electric, or would a turbosmart manual duel stage work just fine?

ps thanks for all your comments keep um commin'

I like electronic if you are going to be running a lot of boost, but a turbo xs manual boost controller works pretty good as well.

I have had some problems with manual controllers that loose boost up top, I have never had that problem with an electronic.

 

right that's a good point, you can also set variable boost points with an electronic cant you?
~stephen

 

nice job. Matt also gave me my basemap.

 

yea it worked great, but you maid more power then me with the same boost, did you happen to get the valve job done after you had the turbo in? and if so how much hp did you make from it?
~stephen

 

Keep the bra off! She looks much better without it

 

i would, i bought this car from my uncle and he had ran the car over those parking blocks, and there are a few big scrapes on the bumper where you can see the black abs plastic. i would love to keep it off but i cant drive around and let the car look bad, that would just be a crime

i use the hallman manual boost controller. they are like 100 new and i got mine from a friend used for 60. ive never had a problem with it.

 

 

i was just looking into it a little, what do you think about the Super AVC-R? i really like the fact that you can control the boost in each gear, that will help a lot for traction, now i just need to find someone that is selling one for a good price

Finally got the video edited, all 25 mins of it. Here is one I made yesterday. Now we need some action on the street.

oh ****, i turbo'd that car whats goin on stephen? Like i said, i think ur injecors are sitting on my table. As far as boost controllers go, i dont think u need to go as far as an avcr. Just get a simple greddy profec type S or something of the like that is simple and effective. With one of these you can have a low boost setting and a high boost setting that you switch to and from with a push of a button. From what i remember, you didnt have any trouble hooking up in first and second gear

throw up some install pics if u have any good ones

 

md boost!

stock ls heads and intakes are pretty damn cheap. I'd say pick up a spare head/intake and hog them out. Then when you get some more money have the head cut for larger valves. Then when you get some more money, get some largers cams and cam gears.

Then toss all that on the car and have some fun.

Oh and that looks like the cast inline pro manifold?? hog that out as well.

 

that was a nice little video there...
the car must be way different to drive now.

i second this

 

For more power get an aftermarket intake manifold....those cheap OBX ones will do the trick nicely....and get some cams. I bet you'll see at least 25 whp right there if not more.

third

and post up some pics in the baltimore rides thread

get a EBC...once you get them you'll NEVER go back to a MBC. never. I have the Profec B II and I like..but I'm going to switch to the AVC-R to get gear dependant boost control

The valve job was done prior to the dyno. The engine was never n/a in my car I swapped it in and threw on the turbo.

 

not bad. congrats
