Re: Turbo escort
 

how much boost? why no intercooler

Re: Turbo escort
 

you running open turbo?
how much psi

Re: Turbo escort
 

That FMU looks familar to me! :P

Re: Turbo escort
 

its not running yet, its still in progress... im hoping to see about 10 psi on 10:1 CR after some tunning with the chip.

all thats left is the downpipe and im done and boosting

Re: Turbo escort
 

10:1 CR + 10psi + No intercooler ...

are you goin to run race fuel all the time?

Re: Turbo escort
 

ur FMU why are there 2 clamps on the tank side...and one on the pressure side? R u running higher than 93 octane 4 10:1 comp ratio 10psi is a lot 4 that!!!

Re: Turbo escort
 

can you say KAABOOMMM !!!

Re: Turbo escort
 

i mean thats what im shooting for .. i might have to lower the compression later

intercooler will come with more money.. im broke

reason being the one on the pressuer side sealed good... very good.. and the return side i didnt trust it so i added another.

Re: Turbo escort
 

??? have u ran it? if so any detonation......how did u get the manifold to bolt up to the 1.9 head?

Re: Turbo escort
 

yea i ran it last night... i got 7psi ... and WOW... i like it better now than with nitrous



go to FEOA.net

its a 1st gen DSM manifold, fliped up side down

Re: Turbo escort
 

on the top picture, is that duck tape? thats what it looks like...????why??? is there a hole there?....r u running a chip? or r u stock...i suppose ur temp was ok.
I've recently turboed a ford probe....but i do have a intercooler, and running 18 psi right now...its completly built.

Re: Turbo escort
 

its duct tape .. kinda.. the hole was from when i had nitrous :P
yes i do have a chip its a diablo sport chip tuned for the set up .. i got to get it retuned though

the temp was fine .. cold the whole time

Re: Turbo escort
 

oh you had nitrous.....how do u like it now with a turbo??? that chip....its a good one ive never heard any problems with them.

Re: Turbo escort
 

o im not running both... maybe anthor day

Re: Turbo escort
 

get a direct link going

Re: Turbo escort
 

this is a link to the originator of the dsm setup ( its more discriptive) cardomain http://www.cardomain.com/id/jeffescortlx

Re: Turbo escort
 

[/quote]Won't the 10:1 comp be to much 4 both??? Thats gonna be risky with 10psi

Re: Turbo escort
 

i donno if it is 10:1.. i think its close.. because i got the head shaved .040 and for ever .010 in theory.. u gain .1 in CR .. I THINK


but it also is bored .030 so that probly droped the compression ver little..
