Project Salt Collector

[Shane@DBPerformance]

Here it is. The ghetto cruiser, highway only racer(since it won't shift into 2nd or 3rd worth a crap) and salt collector.

Winner of numerous Rock Falls trophies
Winner of the 2001 Buschur Racing DSM Shootout Home Depot Award
It used to only get hand-me-down parts and crap built out of whatever was laying around, but the last couple years it has received a bunch of new parts.
Went 12s on the stock 14B turbo back-in-the-day with no fuel controller. It has remained in the 12s since then.

Specs:
K&N Filter - From my 2G
2G MAS - From my 2G
3" Intake - Wrong size, from a Mutt turbo
Factory ECU tuned by me
SC61
Turbonetics Racegate
ETS FMIC Core
SLS I/C Piping
Greddy Type-S BOV - From my 2G, also used by SuperBleeder and maybe At-Least-It's-An-Evo
DB Performance Exhaust Manifold
ARP Head Studs - Might have been used
HKS 272 Cams - Don't remember if they were from my car, Speedfreak's, Cher or new. There was a lot of HKS 272 cam swapping between Rau, Mo, Cher, Me and this car during down times.
Stock 1G Intake Manifold
Unported 1G Head with Crower Springs and stock retainers
2.0l 4G63 Block/Crankshaft
OEM Mitsubishi Pistons
OEM Mitsubishi Rods
OEM Mitsubishi Headgasket
ACT 2600 Street Disc - Needs to be replaced
ACT Flywheel
KYB AGX Struts
Eibach Springs
Stock 16" Wheels
Dunlop Winter Sport M3 Tires

Wishlist / Future mods:
Aftermarket intake manifold
Tranny that shifts
Clutch that holds more power
ARP Rod Bolts? (What will fail first? Rod Bolts or the Rod itself?)
4" Intake
A decent external wastegate

Notice the 2 different kinds of plug wires.

The intake setup goes 4" from the 2G MAS to a 4" -> 3" reducer to a 3" pipe to a 3" -> 4" reducer to the 4" inlet on the turbo.

Fancy NAPA flexy 2' BOV return pipe.

A-pillar 3 gauge pod setup.

Knock monitor covered in black tape and jammed into the steering column. The brighter middle number displays knock, the right number displays timing advance.

[Super Bleeder!!]

SsssssssSSSSSSSSSSiiiiiiiiiiiiiickkkk!

get a pic of my pos while you are at it.

[Shane@DBPerformance]

This car runs 29-30psi daily and thats all it can run. I jammed so many washers into the quality Turbonetics Racegate(6 psi spring) on it that it only runs that boost. Without a boost controller it lags and creeps to 29, with one fully cranked in, it runs 29.

LOL at everything Shane typed! Must have been a slow day at DB

[Kevin 1G Drummer]

Not bad for a daily salt collector!

[turbotalon1g]

holy shit, what is the tuning software?

[Shane@DBPerformance]

I usually use Tuner Pro RT.

Revlimiter is set at 8200, but I didn't bring it out that far on the dyno run above. The power just continues to drop at the same trend. A different intake manifold should bring up the power a lot from 7000+ RPMs. I think it would make a good 550whp on an AWD Dynojet and a little more on a FWD Dynojet. On an older setup, pump gas, and 19psi it put down around 339whp on Elite's Dynojet in FWD mode and then put down around 265awhp on our Dyno Dynamics in AWD without any changes, but some time inbetween.

And it would still beat most of the cars on the board/street I think we both have the stock intake manifolds about maxed out, I am curious to see what you gain when you add one.

[turbotalon1g]

Is this 92 or E85?

[Goat Blower]

I think the exhaust mani is worth more than the car.

[Shane@DBPerformance]

E85, this car always made the usual power numbers on pump gas and was hard to keep from knocking.

[turbotalon1g]

Thats cool as shit, everyone is completing the projects i start before me.
Good luck with the car and thanks for the hard work on it, i get to see what my car should make before it gets done.

[FattyBoomBatty]

You should just take the wastegate off and use a block-off plate there. If it only does 29 psi, then whatever. Leave it!

[Shane@DBPerformance]

I bought a different wastegate for it in the middle of last summer, but I haven't switched it out yet. The car has been in this state of mod for a while now, the dyno chart above was from the MitsuStyle dyno day.

[A//// Guy]

Thats a sweet ride! Love the details. haha

[TkrPerformance]

nice

[sleepydsm]

Cool. Lets trade. lol.
