What’s up guys! I regularly see people post there set ups here so I figured why not post mine too! This is my third build with the same turbo. My first was with a stock block lsvtec making 280whp on the 2.25in exhaust for almost a year until I decided to go with a 3in exhaust without doing a retune. That ended in blown ringlands. Soon after I picked up a RS sleeved type r block. I built it using 81.5mm 9.8:1 wisecos and eagle rods. It cracked a piston due to overheating and a .0025in pw clearance. I should have gone with my gut to go with a larger clearance but I didn’t. This time around I went with .004in to allow some room for error, just in case. All built by me and tuned by Dave at DNR performance . This has been a nightmare for my fiancee by she has supported me anyways Here’s my set up…

Stock port B16 head
Buddy Club P1 springs and retainers

Sweet! I like your choice on the 9.8:1 pistons. Makes for lively driving without boost.

My motor is loving this compression and so am I.

raiden571

I actually get lower numbers with the calculators. I called CP and had them calculate it and they said it was 9.7 with unsurfaced head and estimated it around 10:1 with the head is milled .012. I didnt have the combustion chamber volume so he said 10:1 is probably tops.

I need to get an alignment now. It is all over the place!

g3teg97

Nice, although I was expecting it to be over 300wtq when I saw you at 424whp. Still, quality parts and sweet overall car!

Nice car man. I'm a little confused over the "this has been a nightmare for my fiancee" No build should be that much drama to create a nightmare....what made it so bad?

I spent most of my time in the garage or online whenever I was not at work, money, driving a "highly modified" car on california streets, the garage is a mess! LOL, etc.

Now that I am done, for now, I have been spending more time with her.

I remind her of this all the time!

champLSinteg

Thanks for the props!

By the way, the little dip in the top end was caused by a little boost drop. it went from 15psi to 14ish for a moment and recovered.


Now I need some more seat time.

EARLdaSQUIRREL

when do you get full boost by? it looks a little before 5k

I have to look at the datalogs but I think it was around 4700ish. I rev to 9200 to its quite a powerband!

It will this Saturday at CMI. I've done 12.1 with a shitty 60ft. I need to get an alignment, lower the tire pressure and get more seat time

boostedeg302

solid build. How's that LSD been holding up for you?

champLSinteg

The LSD is holding up pretty good. I have not had any issues with it at all.
