No replacement for displacement?
What happens when the V8 guys find turbos?
Some of you guys may have seen this car at the shop over the winter.
We had to stop at 11psi because the mostly stock ignition couldn't keep up. You can see it in the graph when it goes flat around 5700RPMs and we stopped the run not long after. It was fine at 9psi making 770whp. The plan was to shoot for 15psi on pump gas for now and maybe max the turbos on race gas someday.

Yea, after a couple years of growing up i realized more cylinders means more power easier and better powerband, just need the money now lol.

Re: No replacement for displacement?
Yeah, I have been craving a twin turbo LS engine for a while now. Things like this make me realize that I won't get 1,000 awhp out of my car, because that is totally streetable anyway.

It's not displacement, it was those NAPA oil filters that made the power.

Re: No replacement for displacement?
I saw this earlier today. That is awesome.
I assume there will be a c16 tune also?
What about the TT Cobra that has been 2 years in the making?

Re: No replacement for displacement?
They're catching up. I've seen more and more articles about turbocharging and EFI in Hot Rod, and now they've even got a really cool cam-driven fuel pump that can provide enough fuel flow for a 1500 hp EFI engine without even putting a return line to the fuel tank. Talk about easy retrofit for the older V8 cars, bolts right in the stock location and is half the size of a stock pump.
Nice work on the Stang, I won't be lining up against many of those unless they're on cheap radials.

7000 or so, we brought it out a lot farther than in the graph above on lower boost runs when it didn't misfire. |

Re: No replacement for displacement?
Yea, normal 92 octane pump gas. It was only 11psi. The motor was built low compression for turbo.

Re: No replacement for displacement?
Hmm, maybe I should turbo that GTO in my garage... Too bad it'd fall apart before I even turned the key.
Nice numbers!
