thnx for that link but its to soon, i wont have my turbo installed yet :( actually prolly installing it that day and sunday).

Ahh, well you could always go to the same place later on. They usually have dyno days once a month or so during the spring, summer, and fall. I think their next one is scheduled for April 8, 2006.

im almost tempted to go dyno anyway to get a baseline before i install the turbo ,but now that ive switch back to stock heads/cam i know the things only gonna make like 160hp

What is your current setup?

- Justin

2.8 stock ported heads/manifold, ex system 3,000 stall verter 4:56's and computer tune



used to have wild ported stock heads, but they were milled way down to get me to 10-1 compression way to much for the turbo setup, wild cam rpm range was 3,300 to 7,500 massive computer tunning car ran 15.2@ 88 with the old setup without nitrous had 100 shot used it once and blew the tires off the car
heres the specs on the old cam i ran
Cam Timing: TAPPET @.050
Lift: Opens Closes Max Lift Duration
Intake 17 BTDC 51 ABDC 107 248 °
Exhaust 66 BBDC 12 ATDC 117 258 °
Lift: Intake @Valve 500 .
Exhaust @Valve 520
Rocker Arm Ratio 1.5

248/258 @.050 500/520
should have made 215 hp without the no2

i should make 300 + with the turbo setup at 10+ psi

Whoa....what RPM did you shift that thing at?

- Justin

7,200 - 7,400.Anythiing above 7,800 and it would start to float the valves


lol u havent heard a v6 scream till uve heard one above 6,000 rpms,
heres 2 sould clips
they sound ****ed up caus ei took them with my cell phone
idling

I'd love to hear a 2.8 screaming at that RPM. Must have been interesting to listen to a car sound like that and run "only" low 15s.

- Justin

even still 15,s is ver respectable for an all motor 2.8 specially since its an 18.5 second car stock,though when u hear it it sound sliek its gonna be a rocket,its kinda disapointing lol, thats why im doing this custom turbo setup
lol i just posted 2 sound clips
all the high rpm ones i had were to garbled

I know, my first car was an '85 2.8/A4 Camaro. Fun, but still slow.

Take pics of the turbo install, I'm anxious to see what you have there.
