SmurfZilla's Front facing w/AC build thread. Long time coming
I'm transitioning right now and I may be relocated for work to North Carolina but we had an opportunity to get out of our home now so I'm in a apartment complex. The TE's are in storage.
You bastards have motivated me to go get them out of storage, swap them out and put the Works in storage. LOL.
I'll take some pics of the car with the side skirts today with both.
Just rode an hour and half outside the city to get a Aeromotive FPR and various fittings. All morning I was trying to get on it and all it would do is spin. LOL. At first I thought it was my clutch slipping (Just adjusted it yesterday). I can't believe there is more in it.

What do you plan on revving this setup to?? 8k??
Yeah. Baseline was 633 and 400ish tq at 24 psi.
We stopped at 777hp, 577tq @ 7000rpms/33psi. I think one of my walbros is flaking. IDC's were good (64%) but still wasn't getting enough fuel. We put a FPR on there and can't get it past 30PSI. Next step is to swap the the bad (assuming) Walbro and shoot for 800. It wouldve done it on the last pull but since fuel was an issue Scott stopped where it was. Backed the boost off a bit will pick it up again sometime in the next week or two (hopefully). He left it at 30 psi and hitting about 760hp (can't remember tq). I have the hard copy of the dyno run but I'm beat and after just having moved don't have my scanner set up yet. I'll post it and some videos tomorrow.
Sorry for the delay guys. This combo just flat out works. Car feels good all over. No dead spots, no lag, just power all the way to redline.
Feels like the hand of god is pushing you down the road.
And this was done on a dyno.

Thanks. He tuned me in Atlanta. After I got into a little hot water then the local LEO I decided to drive to either Forcefed or Spec-Ops (I think they have a site) but the same week I made that decision Scott was in town at my buddies shop. I figured......Why not.
I'm so glad I did. Best decision I've made on the car. Working on getting my scanner up and uploading videos to you guys.
I was planning on reving out to 8500. He tuned me up to 8000 I believe but I've afraid to take it there. It hauls @$$ shifting at 6k. LOL.

Ok guys dyno sheet here. Vids uploading.
Red is the baseline we started at (After Scott's street tune last week)
Blue was the 33 PSI run he let off at 7k rpms because we ran out of fuel
Green is where he left me out until I figure out my fuel issues 9hopefully this week)

And some edits: the 64% duty cycle is the wastegate not the injectors. The injectors are maxed due to what we are thinking is a walbro on its way out.
Rev limit is set to 8000 rpms for now.

Sup man, I know we talked before on my thread about the FF manifold and being able to keep the AC. Do you think you could possibly take a few pics of how the the condensor was set up and how each line looks like at each end?
I'm talking with Colin from Toxic right now about building me a FF Mani for my red but we want to be able to keep the AC. As much as i would love to go HTA86 on my 2.3RPM, I'm going to just keep my RED. If i need to go bigger afterwords ill switch it out for a Black.
BTW awesome build!!! If you don't mind me asking, How much did just the block end up costing you in labor and parts? PM me the info?
