Tho I think the engine could take it easy. I think the 275-300 range is gonna be the goal on it.

unless johnny's trying to make some crazy hp gains from em, I dont see them being a bottleneck in his setup.


400rwhp my goal.

anywhere between 350-450rwhp @ the stock acuator setting with make me happy.

i dont wnt this to be a block splitter

shouldnt be too hard, you're already around 300 arent you?

I ran those Dodge units on my first twin turbo set-up (the one from the video) They will work lfine for what you want, but no where near the stock settings (you're going to need about 15 psi).

no, not even close its probably around 225-ISH to the wheels.

the stock torque rating is 300 at the crank..

15psi for around 400rwhp?

my plans are 46lb/hr injectors and re-calibrated MAF. is that all cool for the fuel? is 15psi safe

thanks for the advice alex.

heads got some work done to em today. i noticed one of the valve guides is cracked. so its probably guna need all new valve guides.

as for the CARTOONISH size of the ports on these heads i got some pictures. i put a gasket up to it and started to port match. it does make a huge difference ;)

i dont know what the deal with my bit is but it doesnt work on cast that well. it took me a good hour to not even finish one exhaust port. im still working on smoothing the transition of the top of that port. my folks were getting pissed at the air compressor noise.

alex, do you have anything left from your setup with the 2.2 turbos. like flanges? like header flanges with the 2.2 turbo flange already welded on ;)

No spare pastrs, I sold the set-up complete.
Somethings of interest to note about using the Doidge T3's:

You really don't need any special inlet flange (though a few places now sell them on line) Simply place a standard t-3 gasket on the turbo and drill out the necessary 2 holes. It's really that simple

Dodge exhasue elbows are not reversible I. E. one of them will face straight up and no other T3 5 bolt flange fits a Dodge T3. I welded a 5 bolt flange from a Saab directly to the turbo housing. That alliowed me to make a down pipe for the drivers side {see pic)

Oh yeah, that unit is a 50 trim wheel and 15 psi is about right on the edge of the compressors effeciency range. It will take that to make in the 400s with the ,42/.48 housings.

yo9u sho9uld be fine with the 46lb units as loing as you run a properly cal'd meter. If you don't plan to run any type of tuner (twEECer or EEC-Tuner) lock out your timing at 22* to take out that variable. That way the eeec only contros fuel parameters and won't advance/retard the timing past the 22* ever. 22* is safe to start and you can raise/lower from there.

Re: got turbines?
 
how would i lock out the timing? what would the base timing be set at?
