The piping was modifed from my old Greddy kit setup to accomadate the new turbo and manifold positioning.

history: blown block from greddy kit trying to push 300whp. I know alot of people can do 300whp stock block, but i couldn't.. end of story.

I'm in the process of breaking in the motor. after my 1.5k mile break-in, ill hit the dyno and POST numbers with a/f charts. Wish me luck. 400whp is my goal now.

dyno numbers



This is at 14psi. The tuner stopped due to ignition issues. (not enough spark)
Other than that, there is so much room for improvement! Looks like my goal isn't met, i'm kinda upset, but it does feel pretty quick i guess..

Looking good man, always nice to see a clean turbo gsr. Good luck in trying to hit your goal which I'm sure you'll be able to do no prob.

 

damn, thats one clean motor..and nice setup

 

Very Clean! Sweet setup

 

that things real nice

 

i like it.. clean!

 

i think your goal should be around 500whp .

 

looks sweet!!
what's upi with the resistor box on the im?

 

very nice set up

 

what size piping is that?

the piping is straight from the greddy kit, correct me if im wrong but i THINK it's 2'' from IM to intercooler and from the turbo it's 2.5''. (not 100% sure)

 

eric im jealous

 

Looks really nice.

 

nice setup

 

so u have darton t sleeves with a str block guard huh? intersting...

 

thanks for all the replys, i can't wait to hit the dyno once again.. i don't know what to expect, all i know is that my goals are aimed high! 400 or bust.

 

yea my tuner suggested to add a block guard for insurance for sleeves, it actually looked pretty nice after they machined it down, all shiny

 

sweet setup

 

You should easily make 400whp.

 

i thought darton sleeves were closed deck, how would a block guage work???

im sure it was darton. they recommended a 2-step sleeve from darton and it was open decked.

Your wrong! jk. You just had it backwards, 2" from the turbo to IC, and 2.5 from IC to IM. I'm sure your wondering why, since this seems backwards, my guess would be because 2" is the size of the piping comming off the turbo.

Also, I wouldn't think you'd need a block gaurd with those sleeves, I don't know a ton about either process, but I think you'd have more of a risk of ******* up your sleeves while installing the block gaurd, and those sleeves should be good to like 800whp or something crazy, right?

And what is that yellow stuff that you used to rig up your intake filter piping, I need to do something similar, i'd love to know what you used to do that. Nice setup btw. Good luck.

 

so beautiful and clean!!!!!


id ditch that filter though. (heard and see how crappy they are)

 

dang i guess it's time to search for a better filter.

i hope i can back up my setup with some nice numbers

in the mean time im going to baby my car to death!
