Finally Turbocharged.............
Saturday, March 25, 2006 8:22 PM
I just spent 14 hours today welding pipes and installing my custom turbo setup. I am running the supercharger reflash and 8 psi of boost. It pulls so much harder than the supercharger did. I will post pics later. I just figured I would let you guys know.

your still using the 310cc injectors? i wouldnt push that car hard at all yet... im getting knock and the injectors are maxed right out at 5-6psi of boost... and thats the 310cc ones...

Ya you keep telling everybody that in all of your post but the fact that you are running a s/c and a turbo is not quite the same as running just one.

wow dude you dont pay attention do you.. i said its only different in that i have instant boost and huge low end... doesnt change the fact that 310cc is to small for even 6psi of boost on a turbo set up....

and here you go im not the only one who thinks that too... so how about you learn your facts before you try and critise what i say.. also i see from your profile you are doing the same thing 310cc inj. with a trubo... i hope you only want to go to 5psi... even still your pushing your injectors to thier max... or close enough to... which is the point you dont want injectors to me pushed to...

DCStang67 - ahah well i keep forgeting to ask if you have any pictures... im sure you did a nice clean job .... so post some pictures.... also did you feel the difference in your bottom end power much? since you had the GM s/c'er before.. i know i stil notice the same bottom end power.. but she just keeps pulling threw out the RPM's and doesnt want to stop untill you shift.... where as the gm s/c'er would kind of flaten out up top...

yah man, get some larger injectors, i mushroom some valves, and broke to pistons... that or at least get a rrfpr. You'll make so much more power and increase your engine life.

Man, everyone is ditching the GM SC. Anyways whatever makes you happy, definantly more potential. Are you by chance selling that air intake setjup you had with the GM SC, the one that went over the battery?

i didnt technically ditch the charger .... its still by far in my mind the best boost adder any one can add to a jbody and keep its stock reliability.... turbos are more for people who dont worrie so much about reliability...
