I'm shooting for 300-350 (2 settings) on the stock block.
After I build, I'd like 450.

aen

id be scared to do it on a stock block.

i swear i have to stop getting emails when people reply to threads. i feel like a stalker haha

Resu

lol, 300-350 should be fine on the stock block.

aen

what about those toothpick studs we got?

POP goes the engine.

see what i mean? not even 15 minutes.

olaHalo

before you reply click on that little box that says "email me..."

Mr_Meaty

every part of our engine should handle 300 fine. 350 might be pushing it, but it should be good. I would build for anything over 350, but there are a few pushing close to 400 on stock blocks.

olaHalo

^^ i wont go over 300 on the stock block because im a _____

aen

what, and waste time? psh. im a busy busy man.

just kidding, i forget. =/

i think im going to start building any higher than 300.

or ill just stay at 300 until i can build..haha btw.

do you guys know if mail comes on the saturday right before labor day here?

Mr_Meaty

yup, mail comes today

aen

what the hell, how come i didn't get my mail. peh.

anwyasy, i bought the intercooler today, oil lines and the turbo =)

Mr_Meaty

what is the brand and the specs on the turbo?
Mine's a garrett t3/t04e 54trim .63 ar bushing turbo.
And what IC did you got with? ebay? Or one from Sue?

Mr_Meaty

By the way, here is what my daughter thinks about you actually going through with your custom where I failed:

aen

ahahahha halarious. i went with an ebay intercooler cuz it was a hundred bucks and the same quality

GT35R......tho i might switch back to the 60-1...i only got the gt35r because it was a wet bearing turbo


or keep it. depends.

=)

aen

i made my own boost controller it's dopeee. ill post pictures in a bit.

Mr_Meaty

Oh man, I HOPE this is a joke, cuase it just sounds sketchy!

olaHalo

dang phil what r you teaching those kids.
did i see Bride car seats in the back of your car the other day?

aen

haha its not, i never liked electronic boost controllers, but...i knew nothing about. so, i just went ahead and took the electronic route.

but, after a bit of research, and a bit of convincing from my cousin and my siggy other.

im going manual boost controller

im not done yet, im missing the bottom piece.

end product:


only thing i have to be careful of is spikes.

but, a good eye, ear and boost gauge will take care of that. and alot of learning.

hopefully no blowing up.

so...yup. sounds crazy huh? haha


oh btw, did you guys go to the meet?

amdforever

I was there...you weren't and nor was Phil ... He backed out and didnt answer the phone, must of been getting some, bow chica wow wow ;) Anyways

aen

i don't think im gonna show up until i get hte turbo in.

plus. schools already getting hectic for me.

Mr_Meaty

My phones been having issues, but I didn't go. I think I did tell you at some point.
And I have no issue with a manual boost controller, but I think you should buy one, not make one. They can't be more then $50.
