ding ding ding. Wouldnt it be nice to know exactly how much of an effect any given part has on the power curve? The lex and 550's are their own mod, they deserve their own testing and documentation. Guess what, I will do the exact same thing after removing the FCD and installing the LEX and...

you bother answering questions for me because I have a purpose for doing this. Im not lazy. Im not impatient. I want to find out exactly what the new exhaust is worth on the dyno. If I throw the lexus and the 550s in then I wont exactly have an accurate measure of that will I? Or did you not...

Im not a lazy sponge, Ive been fighting this issue all day and have come to the conclusion that there is nothing phisically wrong with the car, so I need some help in resolving the symptoms. I want to dyno my 89 turbo before going to the LEX AFM and 550's. The problem is Im now hitting fuel...

ok, I reran the car just now, and now that I got rid of the stock 3000 pipe it actually hits fuel cut at 10psi. The problem is now worse. ugh. Is it possilbe Ive just increased efficiency too much? I know the wastegate is opening because I can hear it come fully open at 6psi (BIC DDP)

just to clarify, the car was running just as rich before the new exhaust.

I guess thats the next step. I just took the entire charge pipe set off the car and inspected everything. Then I remounted and installed the titanium 3000 pipe that I got from Speed-Source and 3 new silicon couplers. Still doing it. Fuel cut in 2nd, third and fourth. Right at about 4200rpm...

p.s. 5 foot flames are cool. :)

Well, I have replaced all of the intercooler piping and the majority of the vacuum lines and it drives identically to how it did before doing that as far as how rich it is. The turbo seals are also starting to go so that is part fo the smoke as well. It is running extremely rich, but I am almost...

Nope, no shimming. That mod list above is complete. When I got the car back it was hitting fuel cut in every gear. I kept turning the boost controller back and eventually took it off. I dont know if we lucked out and got the length and transitions perfectly or what, but I am amazed at the...

Hey Boostlee, could you post the pictures from the fabbing of the exhaust?

From my dyno pulls in June: no boost controller - 6psi across the board: 182.2rwhp, 199.85 lb/ft With boost controller set to 12, falling off to 8 by 5krpm: 205.1 rwhp, 249 lb/ft. I hate to even post those numbers because they are so crappy, but its amazing to me how bad the stock exhaust...

I would like to raise but preferrably not eliminate it.

Pics below. and More pics on page 2. So, I got tired of my dinky not even as good as stock exhaust that came with my 89 when I bought it, so I had MDC Motorsports make me a custom 4 inch downpipe back exhaust. Im quite happy with it. The sound is incredible, especially with the BIC DDP...

Then Id say you better get to modding before the meet gets here. hehe

Less than a week! WOOHOO! I hope discount tire gets my rear wheel back to me in time.... without the gouges...

Why does it sound like a tractor when you get on it? (bic ddp) Damn those are some bigass tires for an 80s car.

Im all about blowing shit up man! Im trying to learn hwo to blow shit up with my mind so I wont even need to get behind the wheel to do it! hehehe btw, dont think you posted this over on mr2oc...
