What do you have to lose then?

my weaka$$ 10 bolt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Damn it, you are quick.

dude, you funny.
its all good man, just f'n with you. i have no clue how fast the car will be. i am guessin low to mid 11's maybe a high 10 if i utilize the converter. built car to be a daily driver than i got a little overboardw/ some things. runnin this engine/charger combo w/ stock suspension and rear.

yeah yeah yeah...... i know..... traction gonna be an issue.
i am used to passing on the right w/ the tires still spinnin

I try. ;)

stole my idea!!

JK but should be sick. Ive wanted to build a 6.0/l92 boosted motor since i read about it in car craft 2 years ago. Need a real job first! Should be pretty sick when finished and definitely unique around here

yeah, should move out pretty good, i hope to have sum fun with it cause i haven't been out on the streets since i sold my 00ss. if any u guys local and on 37 sure you had seen it a couple years ago.
it was a 00 black ss w/c5 wheels high rise wing xenon body kit. had heads, cam, & a big shot

pic below of 00ss i had

dont let that 14 second club fool you....that beast is going 15s after the next bunch of mods. :lol:

You know it. ;)

I may even make a call out thread too.

as for pushing, i do ride a bike. my legs do work 8-)

Boosted lq9 tragedy !!!! Wtf.. Wtf.. Wtf
 

WELL A DISASTER HAS COME ABOUT W/ BOSTED LQ9 IN MY Z28.....
took car for a drive sat. nite..
on way home started misfiring, figured plug wire poppd off or somethin. nope !!!!
had her on the lift when i got home checked everything out and all the plugs were fouled.
put all new tr6 plugs in sunday, went to crank and motor locked up.
pulled a plug and fuel poured out
pulled intake pipe off & opened throttle WHAMMMMM.. ABOUT 3 GALLONS OF FUEL POURED OUT AT ME !!!!
WTF WTF WTF...
GUESS WHAT. after doing some diagnosing the f*****N tune that cartek did decided to set my injectors to open when key on. in which filled motor up with fuel.

i am gonna f*****n beat the s*** out of julio or max @ cartek if they don't take care of this.

needless to say i have 1 or so bent connecting rods in engine, now motor has to come back out... wtf
i am gonna try and post a vid of the fuel pouring out of intake.

I did say I heard bad things about cartek right. That's ******** dude, go there and shove your foot up their asses

i have never heard anything good about cartek, and the shop is shady.

hope you get everything worked out!

Julio is the one who tunes the car there. I would sort of blamed him, most likely what happened was your injectors were maxed out for your setup. (Duty cycle of 85%+) Which will cause an injector to stick open if run a lot while maxed out.

My injectors on a cam only setup were maxed out and they didn't tell me I even asked them if I needed injectors and they said i was fine. When I went to tune my car I saw my injector duty cycle being 110%.

Wow thats horrible. Hope the damage is minimal. Keep us posted.

What he said. That sucks.

good thing it didnt catch fire or anything. sorry to hear tho. Would def have them pay for any damage and redo the tune or just take it elsewhere

car was rippin too. so f'n pissed off right now.
everytime i hit the pedal car gave me whiplash.
so i got like an hour of drive time on a 6mth. build. wtf.
i feel raped. ahhhh man do you know how hard it was for me to complete this project with a wife 3kids a yard to take care of and my own business to run..... it will take me another 6mths to get it out and back together if they don't do anything for me.

This brings me back to Bill's reasons for becoming a tuner back in the day with crappy Cartek!

JW :D

thats beat

pretty sure injector size is good.
runnin a set of fast 60lb. injectors they are rated @ 60lb @ 43 psi car setup with 65psi so i believe they should be somewhere about 72lb/hr.

only runnin 9pounds of boost so i think 48lb or 52lb injectors would have been sufficent. but always thought that u can never have too much injector.
what you think? 10psi lq9 with 60lb. injtrs ?

your more than ample on injector size...

thats what i thought !

fuel can only get into the motor 1 way. through the injectors so if thats the case then it has to be the injectors stuck open. computer tells the injectors to open/close.
pretty damn sure i don't have 8 bad injectors from f.a.s.t. @ $600 that i paid for them.
not like i used some ebay injectors or somethin.

i havent heard anything good from cartek... they have there own little 'crew' but other then that... n g

haha bents rods . . . they suck :lol:
