I picked up 6 mph in the 1/4, (140 to 146mph) by switching to SD and GSC S3 from the kelford 272's. 60-70whp.

 

Thanks Tom for the detailed reply. No need for video's unless you feel the need. I'll take your detailed feedback.

Looks like s3's and SD will be in the near future for me.

 

Thanks for the information. I'll be going from s2's to s3's

 

I picked up 70wtq in places going to s3's and a dump from comp 280's.....at 6psi less boost too. The s3's are definitely well worth the price of admission.

 

good stuff tom

 

Well that works for me Tom since I don't have a truck! Can't wait to see how she runs now! That trailer is a beauty!

 

Really considering the FP Black.

 

+1 on this. That or an FP Red. I really want a torque monster that doesn't fall on it's face.

 

I got a video and did some more pulls.. here is a few pulls and heres a video to show response when flooring it around 2800RPM ish.

While it definitely does spool slower and it did lose kick downlow vs before, the top end makes up for it starting around 5k+. it seems the only sacrifice area with tq was before 5K.

I had my friend in the car 195lb (Steve / 5LEEPERISAH on here) and also deducted another 20lb because the rear seat is out.



here's the videos.



will get it back to the track soon. i was gonna take it tonight but ran out of time.

 

yea i think this car is making 650whp. it feels like it that is for dawm sure!

 

Sounds like it was spinning a little in 3rd. Woohoo!

 

i know it scared me in passenger seat.. to the point i thought i was not going to survive when you went through 2-3 and car was pointing off the road.. it feels even better when im in it myself. very curious to see what it does at the track now.

yes in the 2nd video it hit alittle dip i guess and spun at 6000 in 3rd.. not fun when trying to video and it torque steers to the side.

 

logged a few pulls tonight in 52F. basically the same temp as before



I ran into a major issue with the car.. the car was going super lean WOT and 95% injector duty cycle. one of the pumps died from a clogged fuel filter so i replaced both walbros and modified the bypass valve + replaced socks with the same size that came with the br double pumper, then also replaced the kinsler inline fuel filter..

car went from 95% injector duty cycle to 70% lol.

here is the duty cycle of one of the runs:




now i will get this POS to the track asap to get a MPH on the gsc s3' cams.

just thought id update the thread and explain why i did not get any results yet.

also i weighed the car tonight: (laptop in car + some oil quarts + misc crap (fire extinguisher etc - half tank of gas)



--------

here are the numbers it makes when i let it sit in between pulls and cool off..
back to back pulls however are within 640-650 everytime.

 

Very efficient set up you have here! Your hard work pays off and it shows.

 

Impressive work Tom, it seems like your evo has come a long way man.
