x-men FTW! Great Job AARON!

 

Pshhhh this is a red car...Totally Phoenix. Michael you left the dyno too early last night could have seen it happen

thanks guys

 

Excellent work Aaron.

 

Thanks Scott.

Gonna go back to E85 for good on this one this was the last of the pumpgas adventures. I have my trusty Civic for a commuter and as of Wednesday will have a '02 GS300 with a T4 60-1 on it. We'll call it a 3 year lease I have to freshen some stuff up on it and get to what the original dream was but it will be my trip car.

 

wow with 92octane.

 

So I have been tossing around the idea of finally throwing something other than a stock throttlebody on the car and see if there is anything to be had. We tried it on Jesse's car but even with a larger intercooler, 3" piping and a 75mm TB the gains dont seem to justify the expense. I am making more power per pound than he is but since his combo and mine are now fairly different I wonder if there is a practical reason to change.

I like having the extra money to spend on my quads (building a drag only one now), so swapping for swapping sake isnt really something I wanna do.

Thoughts?

Aaron, are you looking at MilSpec 65 or upgrading to a 75mm with 3" UICP? I think you will gain with the 75mm tb but only if you upgrade to 3" piping as well. It is something I have been throwing around myself but don't want to pay the money to do it if it is not worth it. With the Black I'll try and do what I can to max the turbo out and this may be an option for me too. I'm not worried about losing some spool with the Black on my setup. I say you should try it and see what happens. If it works out well then I may do it on my car. I also think Scott testing the Boomba 75mm and gained decent power but they also upgraded to 3" UICP... Worth a try in my opinion.

It was worth 8-9whp on Jesse's car. I think we need to put cam gears on his and play with it a bit based on some insight from GrocMax now though. However it didnt seem to justify the money spent. Power under the curve was enhanced but I am not too worried about that since my displacement more than makes up for what his 2.0 was lacking prior.

I am open to test, but I am going to be choosy about what goes on it I think.

 

Do you think a q45 will work with the stock ecu? I went ahead and put 3" pipes on my car as I wanted to build a new set anyway, but still on the stock ecu. The car still spools nice, well for what it is anyway lol.

I can get the spool back it had by playing with the crack pressure on the Tru Boost I think. Not sure what way the TPS works on the Q45. Never know till we try I guess

 

Aaron do you think i need a mil. spec 65 TB?

 

lmao you did that with 92, you could probably run diesel fuel and make mid 400s, awesome job

 

620 on pump! nice aaron.
