^^^ Looks good. What's the boost control like with KPro? Is it still using a solenoid like the AEM or something where you just increase/reduce the duty cycle?

 

thanks

the kpro boost control works really good, it has a fixed duty cycle setting or a gear based "map" that you can use. both control the duty of the selonoid valve.

Cool. Pretty similar to Neptune and what not then.

 

I've seen those pics somewhere before...lol.

Nice numbers. Anything new with the car?

Peakboost makes some quality kits...don't they!!

 

lol

Well, actually something new is going on. I am picking up another motor Saturday to start building on the side. Figured that I went this far might as well go all the way now, lol.

Sleeved bottom end, manley rods, CP 9.8:1 pistons, OEM bearings, supertech valvetrain, OEM cams

Not sure if I will stick with the GT3076 at the beginning or jump straight to either a 35r or a gt37 but the end goal will be about 600-650whp on C16

 

Sweet...keep us posted on the progress

 

I haven't updated this thread in a long time.

Decided to do a simple motor build. Going with stock sleeves with a fresh rehone, 86mm Wiseco pistons (9:1 compression), updated Eagle Rods with upgraded ARP rod bolts, fresh OEM bearings, new oem head gasket, arp head studs and I may be to the head if I have some cash left over for the valvetrain. I am having the motor built by Chris so whenever I have a chance to drive to Houston and meet up with him the build will begin.

Its not going to be a huge HP setup but it should be good for a good 600whp or so, afterall this is my daily and not a track *****. I jumped on this because I got the stuff at a good price that I couldn't refuse.

I probably wont install the motor for awhile because the next few months are so jamb packed with crap to do and I am going to be leaving awhile for my little sisters wedding in Hawaii.

I probably will wait till the summer to actually drop the motor in. Maybe by then I can get my hands on a better gear set. Gear-x is currently talking to me about testing out a new straight cut 1-4 synchro set for our transmission so I will see what happens with that.


I had been holding off doing this build because I have been having tranny issues. I have blown 2 trannys in the last 6 months. Hopefully this deal with Gear-x will help alleviate the issues I have been having. Afterall, what good is all the power if I can't put it to the ground.
