Can someone look at the last picture I posted and tell me if the BOV is installed correctly?

 

Looks right but I do not see vacuum lines. WHere are they?

ROAD/RACE

 

Look just to the left of the intake manifold and you will see the 4-way vacuum tee. The black line is going to the BOV. If you look at the BOV real hard, you can see the vacuum line there as well just below it.

 

Cool. kinda hard to see with black hoses.

ROAD/RACE

 

what kind of tires were you running on and what kind of fuel?

 

91 pump gas and toyo proxies... would have loved to had slicks but i was happy anyway.

 

BOe is the O-G on this forum for a reason!

ROAD/RACE

 

i assume you had the lsd right? any weight reduction? what rpm did you drop the clutch at?

 

man that truly is awesome.. I wish I was running 12s.. haha.. I'm just starting though.. I was lucky enough to have bought my car with the manifold already on it.. I've only had it for 4 days now, but I'm on my way.. I'm definitely saving up for all the turbo stuff and all that other good stuff.. Rock be looking for my test pipe order here in a few days!

 

Boe, what psi did you run at with those times? Kind of OT but ROCK, will stock motor handle 250 whp @ 9psi?

 

how would you get 250whp without upiing the boost?

 

I think he means with raising boost. He just doesn't want those big holes in the block that the RRM drag car had...

 

You would get 250 whp by having header, exhaust, intake manifold, ported TB, flex pipe, test pipe, and all bolts ons, maybe port match heads or somethign. stock with stage 2 dynoed around 230-240 so i don't see 250 whp unreachable, i just want to make sure that i can run that much power with 9 psi and be safe...don't need to up the boost to get more power always.

 

I was running 11psi... and on stock rods. Had JE pistons. I'd keep the boost below 10 if on stock pistons. Just my advice...

i did have the lsd... floated the clutch from 3k at the launch until about 4k when i got good grip. Then i floated the beginning of second as it was out of control as well(4k-about 4800rpms) after that i was just shifting and flooring it. I ditched the passenger seat, spare, and back seat bottom.

If you had the AEM EMS i'd say give it a shot since it can retard timing for knock and compensate for air/coolant temps. It would be interesting to see what the stockers could take. Stock rods seem to hold up well at 250ish... from there who knows when they'll go.

 

well my goal is 250 whp at 9 psi so i'll let you guys know what i do, ive got a couple goodies that im gonna be working on over the winter along with RRM piggyback and injectors, so i'll be dynoing in the spring once i feel im close to my goal.
