Ha...oh snap. I'll slit my wrists. LOL. I have stock pump and only made 186whp and probably more due to the street tune it ran better and I have 450s. I'll check and stop guessing. Thanks.


EDIT: I don't know about the fuel issue because the wideband would have showed it going lean. Regardless, I get what you're telling me and will check this motor out. Dude, just pray I send you out a turbo to get rebuilt, okay? LOL.

Well rented a compression tester and testing a few times with all the wires pulled and each cylinder at a time. WOT and cranking until the gauge stopped and settles.


Cylinders 1---------2---------3---------4

190-----195------195------200


Whew, thank God.


Okay, this is on a Y8 so those numbers are actually kind of high it seems. Don't know if that matters, but I thought D-Series blew 170-180.


That seems okay so I go to the turbo and pull the first metal charge pipe which the T-bird outlet a Samco 90* coupler then the piping. Pull that and its clean.


Wow, NOW what?


Are you all ready? I think my first time out on the track with the new set-up and babying it made the car feel slow. Also the fact I have gotten used to the new upgrades and the car is once again the normal daily speed. Wow, I'm glad I did all this and know for sure, but besides REALLY bad driving I don't know what else to say. It just seemed while in 3rd it didn't pull hard. Also, the trap was only 96 and I figured the top end would have made up for a bad 1st and 2nd gear. I don't know, thanks everyone for your concern and advice.

my freshly rebuilt d16z6 put down 210psi x 4, your numbers are good.

samson

Hotcheeks, is that you? LOL. Well, I can try for something.

on a GOOD tune a buddy of mine did 13.5 @ 105 on a STOCK Z6 with 12psi soo.....? anythings possible

I rean a 8.0 1/8th mile with a 2.0 60ft on a z6 on 5-6 psi in a eg hatch. My motor has 150k on it and blows 170psi on all 4. I have never ran 1/4 mile

bulldogg9279

damn thats good for 12s. and only on 6psi. what was your mph?

samson

Well, instead of starting a new thread shall we discuss driving methods and ways to help son here to hit 13s?


Which makes me ask, who all 3 pedal launches or E-Brake pre-load launches their car? I mean I launched at 4500rpm on all-seasons with 30psi in them and I bogged so that seems very strange to me.


Also, does this make sense ---> In first gear full boost I don't start rolling the tires until really LATE (6500rpm) and I think it isn't doing it like before due to the larger turbo set-up and lag in 1st. If this is the case I can get away with smashing the gas like a monkey in first and just slipping 2nd. Does anyone else understand what I'm saying? A 63/60 won't roll tire until late not mattering much due to 1k-500rpm later shift vs. the 42/48 spool time and spinning early in 1st and easing the throttle, correct?

They do not give a mph in monroe on the time slips. I was running 20x8 mt et drags and launching using the e-brake load the car at 4500-5000
