453 hp and 383 tq at 25 psi on dynojet. I was hoping for 450 at around 28 psi so I'm happy with it! The turbo still has a lot of room to grow but I just want to keep it a fun DD for now. I'm excited to see what she does on Q16 at 30 psi for the track!

Mods are as follows:

Wiseco 9.0:1, .20 over pistons
Eagle rods
84mm Red
Comp 280 cams
PTE 880cc injectors
Supertech valvesprings and retainers
stock ecu converted to SD
and full bolt ons





That's pretty much the bulk of everything. Any questions feel free to ask!

 

acl bearings arp main studs? any head work?

 

Yes, yes, and no

 

nice, must be a fun car on the streets..

 

I'm picking her up this weekend. Not trying to be the fastest or break any records here just wanna see a 10.xxx time slip and leave it be... I think that's accomplish-able on pump gas and since I already have everything set up for Q-16 I might as well make a few passes on that and see if I can get it in the mid-low 10's...

 

good luck and enjoy the car. the mod bug is a tough one though, i am already itching to do something else on the car lol

 

Nah I've already gone through that phase. I know I'll eventually get used to the power and want more but I have other goals in mind rather than spending more money on the car. I may get little stuff here and there but major mods are done. She's almost 100% the way I want her.

 

Open for business

 

I know the feeling man. Congrats on the numbers. 450 was my goal too. It's tough leaving it alone...but I'm trying.

Btw..pistons make any difference?

 

Thats the same power I want on mine. Running 10's will be quite awesome. GL man.

 

nice numbers for a DD

 

Thanks guys! I picked her up this weekend for the 500 mile drive back and although it was very nerve racking, she made it back just fine and with no problems...

Merlin - On stock block I made 435 at 27 psi. With the 9.0 .20 over pistons I made 453 at 25 psi. Honestly the pistons were the only real "mod" done during the build so I guess this is a good before/after of what a difference pistons will do! Literally the only other things changed in the build was pistons, rods, clutch, and bigger compressor housing for the red. So the only real power adder was the pistons themselves. Hope this helps!

 

Interesting. I ask because im sitting at 452/401 @ 26psi and was curious of this would actually be a worthwhile upgrade. I suppose this with some springs and retainers that i never did might be a project to embark on in the near future.

Im trying to see what the best options for me would be to get some more whp while staying on 93oct. I'm researching everything to see if theres a safe way to get to 500...without E-85. Tough..yeap but i think it might be possible. Thanks for the insight.

 

No problem man! If you don't mind, what's your setup? I also went with Supertech dual's for this build as well. It will probably be easier for you to get to 500 on 93 than me considering your a IX...

 

nice numbers..! 450awhp is my goal aswell
