ran 13psi on the gt28rs

[nvmsp]

so what this mean ? The motor is f*ked or what?

i give it a week. nice numbers though for the mods you've got and the crack manifold.

 

[laracroft]

Mine was a cracked manifold and low compression in piston #4 a few weeks after my dyno. Any white smoke under high boost yet? Cause that'll be your NEXT sign before it goes. Dont say I didnt warn ya.

 

[kicker22705]

no smoke yet...

sux but im willing to accept the consequences...

jus be going forged a lil sooner than i wanted...

monitor your oil level. I'd get a catch can. I'm on the unichip at 11psi and so far no noticable oil loss after 4k miles.

Since u were at Toly's did u guys do the motor mounts?

 

[CustomMSP]

Nah we played pool instead

On a different note...the car felt faster right after we installed the turbo, and it only got faster as you raised the boost. Therefore, that tells us that the cylinder was low in compression even before the new turbo and the dyno. In turn, that means that he should be ok if he lowers the boost a little.

Damn, sorry to hear man.

That's the idea, ain't it? (poke)

upped the boost again on the gt28rs from 11psi to 13psi...

car feels freaking rediculous... i love it =)

2nd gear at 4k it pulls hard, then once it hits 5-5.5 k it get a another surge of power and the jus car torque steers and takes off. scared the s*** out of me at first time it happened. man i love having some topend power for a change.

on a wet road i lose traction in 3rd if i punch it.

anyone wanna guess how much power im puttin down??? edit: i'll be puttin it on a dynojet wednesday.

man i love my car =)

how much did you pay for the gt28rs ??

 

[nvmsp]

Kicker, is the speed still running? I wanted to say, is it still kickin but... haha.

 

[kicker22705]

the motor finally went over the weekend heading back to philly =(

time for a built shortblock =)

 

[nvmsp]

damn, thats good and bad though. How much boost u gonna run after you break in the new motor?

 

[tekkie]

told ya it wouldn't last long

 

[smo0f]

thar she blows

 

[kicker22705]

told ya it wouldn't last long

eh, she lasted a year longer than i expected running 15psi.

 

[nvmsp]

what were your A/F ratios while running 15psi on the stock turbo?

 

[Jeph]

Well put, thats why i did it right from the start.

 

[mspHtown]

damn leave this guy alone. did you buy the car for him...no. do you pay his insurance...no. are you going to buy a new engine for his car...no. so stfu.


didnt tekkie and 505zoom also crank the boost up on the stock block and did anyone criticize them...no.

 

[Jeph]

Exactly, 505zoom has every supporting mod you can think of. he's a walking testament of what you need to do to get your car at a higher boost level reliably on a stock engine.
