i want aluminum IM....where'd u get flange

 

CNC'd piece. My fab guy has a machine shop that does custom flanges for him. I did mention the idea of making a run of like 5 aluminum flanges to sell. He said he'd talk to the shop and get some pricing.

 

nice 6 puck is good. dont get a 4 puck for street driving..

 

The ACT 6-puck clutch I ordered holds 422 ft/lbs so there was no need to default to the 4-puck. I've owned cars with 3-puck, 4-puck, 6-puck and street discs. They all had their own pros and cons in regards to the pedal pressure and how the clutch would grab. Honestly, I would've went with the normal street disc, but I couldn't find one that held the torque I wanted. The 6-puck will do nicely.

 

The t3s60 wont make much more than 280-300whp/tq on pump gas or push more than 22psi. Its a great turbo and really cheap to run. Its very popular in the VW/Audi crowd since its almost lagless and makes good power. More people here should run it since it spools fast and will hold power to redline.

As for that IM, i hope you are making a much larger plenium for it. The stock IM is tiny and basically doubleing it would be best.

Very nice build BTW.

 

senate knows what he is doing he is one crazy mother#$%@ hahaha good to see its running just want to see those numbers

 

The T3 super 60 is definitely a great turbo that everyone should run in place of a 16G. The spool is insane and has little to no lag compared to the 16G6. It'll do the trick for now. Towards the end of the summer I'll be switching to a Precision SC32 or SC50 to shoot for 400whp or something close to it. I know everyone has that dream of a "400+whp Lancer." I'm not gonna be disappointed if I can't attain it. I'm more than happy with my 200+whp kit now.

As for the intake manifold, it will have a much larger plenum on it with a 1" taper. It will go very nicely with the RRM head I'll be picking up in a month or so. I'll also be throwing in a 272/272 cam, titanium retainers and stiffer valve springs. I've been waiting almost 5 years for this and can easily wait another 2 months until it's finished. Thanks for all the comments guys!!

 

If you are trying to make 400whp, you will need to be able to either rev rather high (7-8k) or hold a good amount of boost (25-30psi). Both would be prefered. A gt3071r will be a much better turbo for what you are looking for and with less lag (more usuable power). But you are most certainly on a great step in the right direction.

 

I will be both revving higher and running about 25psi when all's said and done. The GT3071R is definitely another turbo I gave some thought to, but wasn't sure if it would work well with my setup. I'll have to give the flow maps a look see. Thanks!

 

Are you going to do tranny work as well? 400 whp is a lot of power to run through a transmission designed around 100 whp.

 

We 1.8T'ers are running it to 30-32psi and seeing 400awhp. Depending on the cfm of the new head and cams, you should be able to do it with just below 30psi. If you add in alky injection you can increase both boost and timing more and get a good 25whp or more out of the setup. This will be the fastest spooling turbo that will get you to the 400whp mark. If you dont mind another 200-300 rpms of lag, a 3076r will make far more power (up and beyond 500whp) if you ask it to.

 

Yes. If you look back in the posts I make mention that TRE is performing their stage 2 rebuild on my transmission. I may or may not also have Driveshaft Shop make up a set of their stage 2 axles that are rated to 400hp. I haven't decided on this yet.

Thanks for your input, cincy. I know that you really know your stuff and I value every bit of it. I don't want to lose the streetability of my car and I don't want to run alcohol or meth. I'm not sure what the CFM of the RRM stage 2 head is. They say it flows 30% more than stock, which leaves the numbers kinda vague. I think the 3071R would probably be better suited since the 4G94 is something of a weaker engine and is tough to rev high with the long stroke. What is the max boost for the 3071R? I was thinking of a max RPM of 7500 or 8000 tops even with a built top and bottom end. In the end I would like to be around or just over 400whp.

EDIT - I'll definitely be going with the GT3071R .63 this summer.

 

The max psi is based on how much the engine flows. For us VW/Audi people, its right around 30-33psi, for the Honda guys, its below 30psi. You should be able to get it to go to ~30psi. Also you should see above 350whp daily with just over 20psi if you can run that on pump gas (compression 8.5-9:1).

A .63 is best suited for a gt3071r. If you can get atleast 7500rpms, you will be fine since you have a 2L.

 

Try a pump gas/E85 50/50 mix... right around a 98oct rating... yay...

 

Running a nice solid 2.0 bar of boost was my goal. Seems quite reasonable now with the gt3071r with .63 a/r. One of last real factors I've been torn about is that of what compression I was going to run. I'm pretty close to settling for 8.8:1, but a part of me wants to go 8.5:1 for more open-ended options. Would that extra .3 drop be even worth it? I see alot of the Honda guys running an 8.8:1 setup. I've been studying various 1.6L and 1.7L SOHC turbo Honda setups and they tend to favor this C/R. Granted we've got almost another half liter over their engines. Having a 2.0L is what makes me want to run 8.5:1. Anybody have any thoughts or input on this?
