Re: Beater 2g
 

I like the setup, out of curiousity, why did you go with the 3052?

Re: Beater 2g
 

Its a 3065...

Were those numbers on C16, E85 or 92oct?

Re: Beater 2g
 

NICE! is that shanes fmic?

Re: Beater 2g
 

congrats brad

Re: Beater 2g
 

Yep its a 3065. This is my first dsm and I kinda wanted what I thought was a nice/quality turbo that could some day get me into the 11s. Looked around on the dsm forums and tried to do some research on what size turbos people were using to get into the 11s similar sized turbos to the fp3065. I also wanted a mitsu housing so I could bolt it up to a 2g mani. I always read about cheap tubulars cracking and I'm too cheap to buy a quality one. Read a couple reviews from people that had them the 3065 and everybody seemed to love it and put down pretty good numbers. Found my turbo on the dsmlink forums for what I consider a deal and bought it up.

Numbers were on e85 with only a re-wired walbro and 1600s. All fuel lines are stock even the fuel rail feed with the stock banjo fitting, hell I even have the stock regulator.

Its my fmic, haha nothing like waiting 3+ months for an undamaged slow boy intercooler.

Thanks Brian!

Re: Beater 2g
 

Damn... Thats pretty impressive with the fuel setup you got. Way to go on making great power without going overboard on everything!

Plans for next season? More power or are you good with what you have?

What were you running for boost?

Re: Beater 2g
 

I think its safe to say we would all want more power if we could. So of course I'll probably want more power some day, but I'm really happy with where it is. Might try and make it turn and look good next year.

Boost was 28psi.

Re: Beater 2g
 

30+ feels great.

That is a sweet setup man. Definitely in the 11s all day if not better.

Re: Beater 2g
 

450whp, very nice! AND she gets down the track? Sounds like a well put-together DSM! Stock motors FTMFW, looks like you hit the nail on the head with your setup. Now keep it running!

Re: Beater 2g
 

sweet. e85 and stock motor , best efficient combo ever.

Re: Beater 2g
 

Congrats on the times. I am surprised it went 126 with it's 2G weight and VTEC powerband. Get the NLTS wire hooked up, some tires and practice, then you might be in the low 11s.

Re: Beater 2g
 

We were out of fuel pump on the dyno. If he does anything about that, then the question will be how far he wants to push the stock motor.

Re: Beater 2g
 

Sick.

Re: Beater 2g
 

How far you think we could push the stock motor Shane?

I could probably do some fuel mods over the winter, to try and make some more power. Think an in-line 044 with my 255 and -8 feed lines to the rail would be enough with a new regulator?

Re: Beater 2g
 

Wow, that's crazy power! Makes me wanna get mine goin on e85 soon! That's the same turbo I'm runing, except mine has the PTE exhaust housing instead of the FP one.

Re: Beater 2g
 

3065 has the 61mm 35R compressor wheel, a tad bigger than yours my friend! Still, your car will own on E85...DO IT!

Re: Beater 2g
 

Huh, I thought FP used the same compressor wheel as a garret 3065.

Re: Beater 2g
 

There is no Garrett 3065, 3065 is an FP turbo. Which turbo do you have Kevin?

Re: Beater 2g
 

He has 3076, dispite the bigger last two digits, the compressor wheel is smaller. The FP 3065 (65 cause it's a 65lb/min comp wheel) is actually like a garret 3082, if such a thing existed (since a full 35R is a 3582). The 3076 is a 52lb/min turbo I believe.

Re: Beater 2g
 

Ah... Same exhaust wheel, but much smaller compressor wheel.

Re: Beater 2g

Re: Beater 2g
 

Ahh, I see. Well then my turbo ftl. hahaha jk

Re: Beater 2g
 

Hmm, I really want an FP setup... I love the power!

Hey what the:(

Time for an upgrade or figure something else out.

At least one good thing came before it broke.

Re: Beater 2g
 

get a built trans and shift the fuck outta it! you got a great solid setup there!

-A. Swift

Re: Beater 2g
 

^Agreed.

Re: Beater 2g
 

Thanks swifty!

I think I'll go with a tre stage 3. He was cheaper than everybody else for the same things and he seemed like a no bull shit kind of guy when I talked to him on the phone.

Here's to hoping I can put such a built tranny to good use :lol:

Re: Beater 2g
 

Car looks good, tranny looks bad :p I saw the carnage in person last night and I haven't seen one go quite like that before.

Re: Beater 2g
 

haha Thanks man. We'll have to go break the bikes out when it gets nice and go for a ride.

Re: Beater 2g
 

I went with TRE myself also. Was great to deal with. Good luck getting it back up!

Re: Beater 2g
 

Have fun!

Re: Beater 2g
 

Nice "beater"

Re: Beater 2g
 

I hope to see you at the track this spring. I hope I have a similar power band.

Re: Beater 2g
 

Yea hopefully I'll get out to the track at least once or twice. You should kick my ass but it'd be a fun race.




But
:woohoo1:

:beer:

If only it wasn't so damn cold and my work/school schedule kicking my ass this month it'd be back together by the weekend.

Should be ready to go though whenever I get off my lazy ass.

Re: Beater 2g
 

Don't you need the evo3 rear end to go with that?

Re: Beater 2g
 

Not if the builder used a 2g ring gear inside it.

Re: Beater 2g
 

How has that FP inline filter/restrictor been working for you? By the way, did you port that thing in your oil filter housing at all?

Re: Beater 2g
 

No sir, not needed.

I really liked the FP filter. It fit well, seems to do its job, looks good, and I like the fact you can clean the filter part out.

I didn't do any porting to my oil filter housing at all and I don't think it was ever touched. I don't have an after market oil pressure gauge but I never really noticed anything abnormal with the stock gauge.

Re: Beater 2g
 

Brad I want a Ride when you get up and going again!
