Re: New motor meets the twin turbos pic
That'll ------ rock, man. Stick it to the imports!!
:thinks to self: Oh wait, I AM one of the imports now... Well, kick some ass anyway1 ;D |
Re: New motor meets the twin turbos pic
nice u still useing the fmu and hows that working

Re: New motor meets the twin turbos pic
very nice, that looks SICK!, definately keep us posted with recent pics.

Re: New motor meets the twin turbos pic
Regular running wise, the fmu setup works very well. Idles like a stocker. Really smooth application of power.
But...... I don't know how safe the tune is with that fmu. Once this motor/turbo setup is done and broken in it is going to the dyno with a wideband. No way am I going to toast this new motor because of a cut rate fuel system. I don't really like the way the fmu responded so far but I still want to mess with it. When you start into boost, the fuel pressure would not change much and then all of a sudden it would spike up. I would much rather see a more linear response. Erich |
Re: New motor meets the twin turbos pic
ya i see what your saying what ar are the turbos

Re: New motor meets the twin turbos pic
dont the gt40 heads raise the compression ???

Re: New motor meets the twin turbos pic
The pistons are not stock either. The combo of the GT40P heads and these pistons is supposed to yield about 9.2:1 compression. So it is higher but not out of sight. The alternative with the dished probe pistons was like 8:1 or even lower (I forget exactly). Given the limitations of these turbos, 12 psi is what I calculate to be the max boost I can practically run and still be efficient so having the higher compression pistons seems to me to be a better idea. Hope I'm right.
