A little 1st to 3rd run...

[Suprapowaz!(2)]

Had a little fun out back on the farm roads behind my neighborhood. This was just a little run from 1st to 3rd gear. 20-70mph. It wasn't really going all that fast. More noise and wheelspin than anything else. Short shift to second gear, had to throttle 2nd cause the car was going a little sideways, and granny shifted to third up to 70mph.

That looks remarkably similiar to some driving I did today during our meet cruise

 

[hvyman]

What bov you running? Greddy?

 

[S.A. supra]

Sweet rufus! Ten years in the making. Congrats.

 

[Suprapowaz!(2)]

Thanks Mike.
Greddy Type S BOV. I'm only running 5psi of boost according to my aftermarket gauge. The stock boost gauge looks like it peaks to 8psi on the vid. I was looking at my autometer and saw just a hair over 5psi. :dunno:

 

[S.A. supra]

That thing really moves.

 

[Suprapowaz!(2)]

I don't know. I've been driving this dang Protege around for so long I don't know what a fast car really supposed to feel like. I know it's faster than my Protege.

 

[hvyman]

I have the same. Thought it sounded oddly familiar.

 

[satx88supra]

Damn Rufus that's sounds nice. I really need to get mine put back together.

 

[suprastroker88]

i only wish i had power like that. im trying to work my way up there

 

[Suprapowaz!(2)]

Thanks D. I'll be calling you today. We have the same days off for the next three days. Let's get that head put back together.

suprastroker88, I have no clue what kind of power this car is putting down. I have a long way to go to getting this thing fine tuned and have some real numbers to display both dyno and dragstrip.

 

[suprastroker88]

build specs?

I have a MAP ECU, but haven't really messed with it yet. I plan on eliminating the AFM. I'm going to get a wideband to monitor the A/F ratios, and try to street tune it the best I can.
HKS EVC III boost controller, but it's not hooked up right now. Don't want to raise the boost without monitoring the fuel ratios.

Nice pull. Tire specs?

I want a P&P'd head so badly!

 

[Suprapowaz!(2)]

Very old dry rotted Goodyear GSC's. 225/50/16 front, 240/50/16 rear and rolling on a spare... on the rear! :3d_frown:

I need to buy new tires, but I'm poor. I can't afford any right now.

how much boost are you running and where do you see full boost? I'm curious because I want to see if it'll be worth it for me to go with a t4 setup or stick with my sp61gt dbb bolt-on turbo

 

[Suprapowaz!(2)]

It's running 8psi off the wastegate spring. I haven't really paid too much attention, but I wanna say it's all there around 3700 RPM. I'll have to double check to make sure.
If I were to do it all over again I'd for a bolt on turbo cause I'm not really aiming to high as far as RWHP goes. Bolt on turbos have taken people on up to 550rwhp. Maybe more.

 

[suprastroker88]

But wouldnt it flow better through a t4 setup?

 

[suprahooked]

You mess around and blow a front tire you wont be affording anything!

 

[Angry7M]

Great run! What boost level where you running?
