400whp Msp Build UP

[Fast lane]

Yea...im looking at tires also...but i just wanna get the car up and running before i get them..

 

[BlkZoomZoom]

I bet u even have the locking lugnut tool taken out too. lol

fOCUS..
yOUR RUNNING THE iON Exhaust right,? did you modify it when you made 296..? I think i may have some issues with the down pipe.

What's wrong with the dp?

 

[Fast lane]

Well there are 2 things im concerned about there is no real divider between the wastegate path and tthe wheel /exhaust flow, this is going to cause alot of turbulence at around 400hp,2nd...the pipe for the exhaust flow is only like 2inches and thats where all the power has to get sqeezed through. I dunno we'll try it and see what happens..By the way i saw nick working on your tranny.

kewl...we'll get together sometime.

I don't know what you are saying, the downpipe is split. Here is the picture you posted.:

Also if you want bigger you need to go to an external wastegate.

 

[Fast lane]

Yes i know its split but it does not really divide the wastegate opening from the wheel opening because there about3/4 inch in b/w the down pipe and the the turbo , what im saying is that divider does not go all the way to the turbo to give to seperate paths, and yes and external wastegate and new mani may be in the picture if we hit a wall with the exhaust flow. i tryed to explain this my best, but dont get me wrong this exhaust was worth the money, I just think i personally may have a problem but only time will tell.

I wouldn;t worry TOO much about it, even though its 2" and 6" long, its still larger than the turbine outlet.

Let me do you one better. The exhaust is good, but definately NOY worth the money Jack charges. I understand what you mean by divider, if you are worried, ask nick to weld a little piece on the flange to divide it up.

I will be doing some type of rework on it. I think the cost is good. I like the way the system is made, outside of the turbo flange.

What about the *possible* crankwalk Beau was talking about? Any evidence that its a problem when producing that much power?

Im only asking Blkzoom...lol

 

[Brian MP5T]

Crank, Mmmmm... Good idea...

 

[spacemonkey]

Also I would like to see video and hear what these CP piston sound like. I remember MPnick saying they are quieter then JE but still louder then Weisco?. Thats understandable since JE are competition pistons. Jsut saw Azian6ers 13.3 run...that thing was loud!

 

[BlkZoomZoom]

Azian6er ran a 13.3? I missed that video...where is located?

 

[RyanJayG]

he ran a 13.5 in this video... so I bet its possible... he's always had a traction problem... but this was with his old setup... with his thumper I dont think he's even tracked it... though he said it made the same or more power at MUCH lower boost levels... but that iss to be expected with a GT3037
