Re: Project Uber Fast GSX
LOL 91 California gas going through FIC 950 Injectors. Worst gas, it looks like water its so clear.
For the track day and days i want more boost i will run some 110 that is sold at a gas station right down the street.
Come track day i would like to be running approx 35 psi.

Re: Project Uber Fast GSX
I guarantee that you aren't running little to no knock on an untuned car on 91 octane and 27 psi. Aren't you on stock headstuds? I know you said you couldn't use your ARP's. Don't blow up what you just got done working on, get that shit turned down and work your way up.

Re: Project Uber Fast GSX
thats the funny part. Its at the lowest boost the MBC will do. Im thinking that my MBC is fucked up. I have a 1bar spring in the WG, the MBC is a Forge Unos, and i dont have the smaller spring for it. so i think this is the lowest. I am considering buying the Gizzmo Electronic Boost controller that is good up to 3.5 bar (50 psi).
Im going to get the headstuds before the track day on the 27th
Ill just take it east on the car till then.

Re: Project Uber Fast GSX
So if you have a 1 bar spring in the wastegate then why not run straight off the wastegate, 1 bar is ~14.7 PSI. Tom, your logic would baffle even Einstein.

Re: Project Uber Fast GSX
I just changed that actually so that it is now running off the wg. I also found the exhaust leak. I didnt tighten the wg all the way, so the exhaust leak shoudl be gone now.

THEY ARE! Have you seen the magnus fuel rail before, I can almost fit a quarter in the barrel.

Re: Project Uber Fast GSX
Make sure the top port on the Tial wastegate is open to atmosphere, that would cause an overboosting problem it if was capped or had boost going to it. But Forge stuff does suck, I don't like their boost controllers or BOVs.
Do you guys have cams in it?

Re: Project Uber Fast GSX
No cams, thats one of my next upgrades. I was thinking 280s The tial port is not blocked.
its now not using the MBC and working at 14psi.
Wierd thing though, now that im working at 14psi i did a quick pull, it sounded great spooling up but it hits 14 psi and sounds like a super charger whine. this could be normal as i am used to the sound of not having a dump tube like on my old setup, and this could very well be the dump tube sound. It doesnt sound bad, just different.
I may just pick up a cheapo MBC to tide me over until i get some money for the Gizzmo Electric one.
Other then that i love the setup, it feels really strong.

Get a $45 Joe P., I really liked that MBC; it was definitely nicer than my $13 eBay one.

Re: Project Uber Fast GSX
I love the new intercooler the dimensions are 31x11.75x4" from siliconeintakes.com after driving home boosting here and there, the hot side is warm the cool side is freakin ice cold. last night my intake temps never got over 67 degrees.

Re: Project Uber Fast GSX
Just curious, but at idle, dos your magnus make it sound like your car has a huge vaccuum leak? I've got one on my 1g and it makes a high pitch whisteling sound, but I don't have any leaks.

Re: Project Uber Fast GSX
yes it does, and it always throws me off. Because it idles kinda rough so i hear that whistle and think its a boost leak. It almost sounds like its coming from the throttle body. its great to know that im not the only one expirencing this. I like to think of it as the horseys wanting to come out and play.

Your intake temps are read at the MAS before the turbo, unless you are using something else to monitor them. |

Re: Project Uber Fast GSX
So tomorrow the Cams should come in (yeah one day before the street legal drags at california speedway) Also tonight i tried launching the car and the clutch slips under a hard lauch (15psi and 4-5k rpm) So im also gonna swap the clutch that was in my GST (Southbend DXD 6 puck.) So hopefully that will help with the launch, i know it helped a ton on my gst. I have a long night ahead of me.
