This summer was the first time I drove the car in about 2.5 years. It felt amazing. It made 567hp and 490tq at DB (corrected). It was super fun to drive for the month I drove it. One night after a rice killer meet we were getting on the freeway, I hit it and it started sputtering and finally stopped making power. FILLED the freeway with smoke, limped it to the next exit and to our destination and found it dripping oil near the turbo. Long story short the shaft snapped. Here is what the car looked like when I was driving it and what happened to the turbo..
Harness bar. Safe? Maybe only slightly
(I told the DMV I lost my plate thats why there is a yellow sticker. Only did that so I could run with no plates and I Powder coated my old ones black to blend in with the car.)
Now the plans for this year:
To get the thing back on the road I needed a new turbo
I went with another FP turbo. I didnt want to change my whole setup so I went with this beast. Its an FP DSM88HTA. Should make more power then the FP3575 (not that that was my limiting factor)
My limiting factor last year was the fuel. The single DW300 was not enough for the amount of power I was making. The fix..
Right now there is two walbro 255s. Im going to replace them with dual DW300 pumps.
I will update more as more parts arrive and the work gets done.
