Picked up another turbo dodge.
 
4 Attachment(s)
Well I picked up this 89 dodge daytona on saturday. It was pretty slow as expected on the factory 6 lbs or so. The car has a warlbro 255 so i turned up boost to about 12psi. Kept blowing off I/C tubes. Fixed those and drove all day yesterday. Goes pretty damn good on 12psi, but the cheapo ebay boost controller crapped out on me today, I was getting inconsistent boost, and eventually spiked 20lbs to fuel cut. I pulled over, and threw it across the parking lot. :1

Im going to be redoing all of the charge piping, and well as added a nicer intercooler. Also going to build a 3" exhaust from the 2.5 swing valve, and dump it behind the door. Back to stock boost for now until my turbonetics MBC comes in. :8

Heres a few pictures of the car. Need to lower the front, I think the previous owner installed the front perches wrong, Also may get a set neon approved gods wheels. (srt4)

These engines are pretty stout. Hell Ive ran 12psi non intercooled on my truck and it has a cast crank.

your not runing any management all the while your doubling the boost. your not making any more power man. your just wasting gas and making noise and heat.

depending on your setup, if you run a carb, you dont need an intercooler.

Wow, your ------- stupid. The factory map sensor can read 14.7 psi. The factory computer will manage that with no problem. Theres a deffinate difference between 6psi, and 12psi.

On my truck I was running a centrifugal supercharger with no intercooler. It is MPI, not carberated.

I don't care if that thing is boosting 50 psi and had a million horsepower. All of those Gaytona's, Lebarons and Lasers are all ugly as sin and ------- homorific.
