We finally got our car on the dyno with a new Ebay 57trim as last years turbo finally starting smoking badly. We had excellent results. The turbo was the only change since last year. Apparently the turbo we had all last year was less efficient due the the thrust bearing problems we discovered!



<U>471whp/356tq @ 29psi on 101 octane! </U>

This was not the highest power or rpm run we made, but the dyno crashed before I could save the runs and we had to get going to the track. We are actually revving it to 9100rpm.

So we headed out to the track for some T&T runs with the tighter ratio tranny w/LSD that we never got a clean run with last year.



Pretty amazing for an ultra low budget D16Y8, huh? It actually leaned out/ran low on gas again at the top of 4th and fell on it's face just past the 1000' mark on the 10.4 pass (thus the lower trapspeed)!

According to the weight vs. trapspeeds, the car is actually making about 485whp. I believe this is also a record for power and speed on a crappy stock port Y8 head. And the vitaras have more than proven their worth!!!

 

Glad to see your finally getting to have fun with the car. Been watching this build for a while.

 

Bump for yet another impressive d series

 

Awesome! You always seem to make the most of such a simple set up. The car was fast when you had the greddy kit on it. Long live the D!

 

awesome!

 

Wow that is impressive Who is gonna be the first to run 9's on Vitara's

 

thats great man.
congrats

 

absolutely amazing!! 10.4 is smoking!! i would really really like to see your setup go over 500whp...that would really prove something IMO...we all know the setup is capable

 

Nice work JFK

 

Congrats man!!! We will be doing some testing tonight on our setup if the rain holds out..

 

WOW! I love budget builds
