Sloppy Mechanics

corey getting his cobra tune by frank

Pullied up my g8 today

installed the 70lb injectors the other day from Rich at PMFL, waiting on the pulley, he suggested i order a 3.1 to stay safe, totalling 9psi up top, and adding about 30rwhp, he was totally right btw. listen to the man when he speaks, haha.

injectors and pulley were easy to swap, results were amazing.

The Mad Scientist tuned costas's supra today

not done yet, but the numbers on pump gas are already pretty damn good, 705rwhp 570ftlbs 24psi

look forward to some more pump gas power and a race gas tune in the coming weeks...

dyno'd a big turbo 337

low boost 15psi = 265whp 242ftlbs

high boost 25psi = 364whp 333ftlbs

turbo silverado video

its still hard for me to believe that this truck has 420miles on it and was stock 5 days ago...

some test and tune with donavans z06 on the rollers

he had been playing with the tune lately and wanted to see the power difference since he first bought it, here is the comparison. the car has a mild intake and axel back exhaust, and nearly 100k on the clock.

Donavans P1SC dyno

dyno pull video

dyno'd 2 cars today... Aarons Chevelle and Donavans TA

well most of you might not know, donavan bought a blower head unit off cragslist for, then got a bracket, belt, etc and made it all work for something of the tune of 1600 dollars

motor vs blower...

i let out early because the car is out of injector/pump and doing a nice 13.5 AFR 116% duty cycle, non intercooled p1sc 42lb injectors and stock fuel pump still

great increase for 3.5psi! hahhahaha

next up is aaron on motor, and then nitrous.

good improvement on both!

Turbo Rusty Pump Gas Tune Night At PSI Motorsports

after a small timing error on our part, the car was on its way to making big power right away.

554rwhp 615ftlbs on 12psi and pump gas through the th400

Bruces TVS2300 GTO

skalor hot tuned bruces 04 GTO

im not sure of the cam specs, but a stock ls1, stock heads, aftermarket cam, maggie 2300 10psi of boost. i think josh got in 11-12deg of timing.

here is a comparison of stock with longtubes. vs now with the maggie and the cam.

another explorer motor lives on!

yet another junkyard 5.0 rescued to live again.

working out the bugs on the dyno today

working on getting the bugs out of the car before the real dyno appointment with frank, and what you would expect, the shift cable became damaged because we screwed it up during the install... so it will be fixed, replaced, and we will try again later haha. i just put up some video for fun.

dyno charts for the TVS1900

here are two dyno plots, the first is just the last safe pull with the TVS blower installed.

this one shows

*red* stock 87 octane,

*green* tuned93 octane, and

*blue* TVS1900 on 5psi

Dyno Tuning the TVS1900 on the G8

451rwhp 420ftlbs to the tires on 5 psi... 85deg outside, humid as balls. averaging 130deg inlet air temps

we stopped there even though we weren't getting any knock because we knew on the street it would probably knock. had about 22deg in it.

so we took it out and started data logging. and it got knock in 3rd and 4th, just a little.

so we took 2 deg out, and now its great, 140inlet air temps beating the balls out of it on the street. and no knock. 2nd gear burnouts off the rev limiter up the street, not a problem.

ill redyno and see what it makes with the street safe tune some other time. but the last pull we made 2deg lower was 442rwhp. lol

this car is a total animal now..

116mm car cleared out its new lungs today on the dyno

frank just got it buttoned up late night and gave me a ring.

680rwhp on 7psi, letting out early at like 5800

then 967rwhp on 15psi letting out at 7600

whoa boy the turbo doesnt even start making noise till way late in the last pull, its not even working lol
