Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

Looks great Mark! Ill be driving mine Saturday, from princeton to my new place in cottage grove!

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

:rock:

Did the fenders save a lot of weight?

What do you think of a CF hatch and lexan for a street car?

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

Thanks! Enjoy the drive! I might be starting my Evo this weekend!

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

Sweet!! Give me a call I'd swing by!!

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

I was thinking of changing cam shafts. I’m currently running Brian Crower 280’s. I was on a shoe string budget when I purchased these. I’m sure that they are a bottle neck. I have yet to research this tho.

I’m thinking of using GSC S3 or Kelford 280’s. I don’t know??? Any DSM’s with experience on cam selection with big turbos, 67mm and up? I would like to improve the Time/MPH or run a little less boost and keep it in the single digits.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

Oh yea the update. I'm still waiting on Shep to get the new batch of gears in for my TX case. They said that they need a set for the shop car too. I'm patiently waiting, and have been since October.

If it goes any longer I will need to source a factory yoke and 23 spline case to get the car running/racing.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

Give a call to english if you are considering those GSCs from what I gather they work pretty closely with GSC in developing cams for mitsus.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

I have a factory yolk in a box, let me know if you need it.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

There should be a lot of power left on the table with the BC's, the design on those is old as dirt. I'd also look into the bigger FP cams as well as the GSC's.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

I run Crower 288's (stage 4). They are degreed in on a 111 deg lobe separation. Max lift I .415" E .398".

With your 2.3 9500rpm and big turbo you will want the biggest cams that will fit. Motors are air pumps and if you can not get air in/out you will be hard pressed to make power.

Idle and down low throttle will suffer but the extra power is worth it.

It would be cool to see your 1g dyno graph overlaid with my car from the dyno day last year.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

I agree it’s worth the loss of idle, it’s a race car. It’s going to see less and less street time, since the my Evo is taking its place as the preferred street monster.
The only dyno graph I have is from the mid 30 psi pull, think it was around 780-790WHP? MAP should easily set up an overlay, they have both files on their PC.

I will let you know, I think I may need to get an OEM driveshaft too, I'm running the DSS 3.5". I called Shep again about the TX upgrade and they are shooting for next month, I guess ER is also making one now too.

Yea, should be some good power to be had, The old spool to 40psi was quick, around 5900-6000 in third, on a 76MM turbo. I know I'm going to be giving some of that up, but like John said it’s worth it.

Yep the S3 is what they are using on Jeff B's car. MAP has a set waiting for me to pick up. When I go there I'll try to get some overlay graphs of the dyno runs too.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

Contact english about their brace for T-cases. They should be out now, Jeff bush is making them/head of them. But I know they have a few ready.
I'm gonna explode a case first.

Blue is the EVO
Red is the 1G
Green is LaCroix's Galant

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

To bad the map sensor on the dyno day was showing 12psi more than what John's Galant was running. That extra displacement helps. :bengals: , much more under the curve for the 1g and EVO.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

John's car makes over 800 for almost 2000 RPM, Nice.Yea I remember that MAP sensor issue, before my car broke on the dyno it showed something like 57psi! Haha. My AEM Log showed something around 44-45psi. This chart tells a good story of how F’ing crazy my evo is, period.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

That green run was at 40psi even, and the rev limiter would have been 9800rpm.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

Looks like you could match the 1G with the Evo and 500 more RPM and maybe some tweaking. The Evo looks amazing!

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

Man threads like this really make me wish I would have held into my Talon just a little longer so I would have time for it. Amazing car. Work looks second too none.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

I think the 6266 is out of breath at that point, who knows what the curve would look like with 500rpm more. It uses the same IDC from 7700 to 8500rpm if that means anything.

I wish I had a dyno number on the 1G with 40+ psi, I don’t think the 4202R was in its sweet spot yet at 35 psi on that chart.
Who knows it’s all speculation anyways...The shit runs 9’s at 155+, I’m happy, I just want a transfer case now…Get it to the MAP event and have fun!

Oh and I picked up the S3’s too.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

So you are on stock transfer case and non built trans still on Evo?

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

Holy shit I wonder what the red graph would do at 10psi cause it make 800 with .65psi!!!!!!!:TVsurf::split:

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

Built ultimate ration trans from Jacks with a 4.11 final drive. MAP spec beast mode Xfercase with a wavetec front diff.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

I’m not going to count on an upgraded T-case anymore. The 1G should make it to the MAP proving grounds with a stock transfer case! I just ordered my yoke conversion to adapt a factory case to a HD DSS 3.5” drive shaft. The off the shelf format from DSS is meant to only work with an upgraded T-case.

Now I need to:
· Tear into the motor to take out the BC280 and install the GSC S3’s
· Replace the timing gear and the keyway on the crank since last time the keyway groove was worn.
· Remove the upgraded TX-case that grenaded.
· Install the new fabricated yoke and factory Tcase.
· Street tune WOT (hopefully the cams will help hold power out further in the band)


The car should be running in a week or two, as normal in the nick of time for the event!

I’m sure it will be hot off the street onto the trailer and heading out to BIR.

Happy days again! Just shooting to get one clean pass in, haha.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

Nice! glad to see you're still planning on rocking the 1G at the PG!

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

Awesome. Good luck those GSC S3s are sick, you should be happy with those.

I hope you get more than one clean pass.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

Damn that sucks your t-case puked on you. Good luck at BIR.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

Good luck!!!

I also picked up those cams so it will be good to hear what you think. Obviously my setup isnt the exact same but still cool to see what I can expect.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

Copious amounts of airflow lol.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

If you need a lap top holder for those wot pulls, im your guy!! Good luck Mark!! Hopefully we can line up against each other and confuse everyone which car is which!!

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

Sounds good to me! How's your car coming along?

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

Driving it up to map in a few minutes to have the nhra chassis inspector check it out. Hopefully it should pass with flying colors. Let me know if you need a hand with your car!

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

Good thing I decided to do a cam swap, I found 3 of the 5 nuts on my adjustable cam gears were finger tight. The shield plate that attaches to the head had one of the small fasteners ready to fall out. Who knows another couple of miles and the whole motor could have been F’d. Now the cam gears have Locktite Red applied.

The idle is a little rougher, not too bad though. You can physically see the difference in the cams when you set them side by side with the S3’s. The S3’s are monsters. I wish I could have done them when I built the motor, since I’m a little concerned about valve to piston clearance. I’m just going to let her buck and see what happens. I took the car around the block in front wheel drive mode and the tires break free at about 15 psi making the care useless. Now I know why transfer cases take so much abuse, it’s like the front have no aid in the traction department. These 1G’s are closer to rear wheel drives.

Now I just need to get the transfer case in it and tune it up, should be exciting!

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

Woo! Good to see a few cars getting ready for proving grounds! I'm excited to see you and Kevin both make some passes in this year. We have to have some fast cars around here, seems there's quite a few really quick 1g's nationwide this year.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

Most after market pistons have enough room with a 1mm over valve.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

Good to know John, I took a compression check after I smoked the front tires to almost 8k. All is good!

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

I took out the broken transfer case and replaced it with a factory one. Now it's just a matter of some tuning and an oil change to get the new cams dialed in.

Pic of the broken case:

Glad you are getting it all taken care of though

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

I think you need one of these haha

He needs the race version fool! :cool:

That thing is $350!
