I don't use 100 octane gas I just told jwt that so they would give me the timing I wanted. I use 93 octane and the car runs fine.

As for goals 375-400hp, if I ever drop another motor in this car around 450hp

 

that was smart. so you have hit 10 psi yet without any detonation? hope you can get a dyno sheet up soon, unlike some people with guestimations..lol

 

I have a few large bills, birthdays and house projects coming up so all my money is tied up for the next few months.

I may squeeze a dyno or track day before maxus but I have three cars all with new setups so not sure what I will take

 

screw you

 

I think I speak for everyone

 

Lol

 

 

Forget you all then!!! lol patients. soon

 

Finishing up another turbo build for a local member, it was modeled after Hal's setup

 

this project will be avail to be seen come maxus10 lol

 

Holset turbo he's using huh. Much better than that masterpower u got there. I think his spool will be waaaaay better than your man. Damn ur makin cars faster than yours haha. Jk

 

Thats fine, the maxima is a play toy to help pass the time. Now my truck is were the real action is

 

dont believe in p.o.s. holset's, 5 bolt turbos ftl

yo t6378tp, me and you versus all these p.o.s. holset setups (excluding streetz).. Quick spool is nice, but when yall run out of breath up top and we start walking away, dont be upset... Also the sound of a master power turbo spooling is ridicolous...

Just my 2 cents..

 

your gonna get ur @55 handed to you

 

first to take off dosent always win the race buddy, ur no longer at the advantage 3.0 to 3.0 big pimpin..

 

ahhh good eye but you have 2 different setups to deal with so "Pick ya Poison" and trust my car was and will never be a push over

 

Nice work t6378tp



What's wrong with holsets? They aren't all small, fast spooling, 5 bolt turbos. How 'bout you run my holset powered car when it's finished.

 

That's a legit looking setup right there! I like that a lot!
Holset's are the hotness! Don't be jealous.

 

 

I'll tie your car to my bumper and drag you down the track so you can keep up

American Muscle FTW

 

by the time you even feel like driving the s10 my supra will be putting out 500rwhp

 

Well pulled everything back out the car for final welding and changed the angle of the 2nd half of the downpipe alittle. There was nothing wrong just think it looks alittle better.

So here are some pic's on the mockup motor

 

What kind of radiator you guys using for that, honda?

 

yes

 

Well I swapped out the chrome intercooler pipe for a black one where the fog light goes. I felt the chrome one was too flashy and stood out. Here is a before and after pic, you can barely see it now.

 

When are you gonna hit up the track? I wanna see this beast make a pass!

 

Sorry but it may never see the track. I've been thinking about parting the car at the end of the summer to fund a turbo mustang project.

 

WTF.. Turbo mustang?? I'm assuming the masterpower would be going on the stang huh?

 

yep

 

nice, i just figured out whos car that is

 

ooooooo

 

hmmm, im starting to see this alot, people make their maximas fast, then shortly after sells it, or parts it out, is my theory correct that a fast FWD car is nowhere near as fun as a fast RWD

 

Naw, as you can see from my forsale thread I have been bored with the car for sometime now. I wanted to move on but the car did not sell before the winter so I parked my G35, "G35+rwd+snow=going no where" and drove the maxima and turbo'd it since I always wanted a turbo car.

I car was fun for alittle while, got bored again turned up the boost and now I am bored again and don't trust the 3.5 to turn the boost up anymore so I am done

Maybe after the summer I will change my mind and do a motor build and turn the boost up somemore but then there's the issue with the glass tranny and they are getting harder to find in my area

Plus I can boost a stang for like 3k car included and put out 450-500rwhp and 550tq all day long and can find parts anywhere cheap

Also since I do not need 3 rwd cars living in the NE, I am planning to trade in my g35 for a 4 door titan and turn my s10 into a full out track car and use the stang for a fun car.

 

FWD does suck and the 3.5 is no forged demon like the VG, but there's something about repairing the ford every week that's not appealing

I took a look at some dynos and max tq turbo (for a 10 psi t44, nothin special I know) is at 3,800 rpms Great numbers but the tq falls off so hard you'd think it was N/A. And HP doesn't climb all that fast either. I guess that's why they're only good for the track with the right gearing. I'm a renowned mustang hater (anything after early 70s), but with no bias, that sounds like an extremely boring turbo car for the hwy. Or maybe I'm crazy (many people will tell you this).

I'm sure w/e set up you'd do would be great, but those things look like piles (and usually are after this many years) haha

How about single turbo an old Z?

 

supra ftw

 

a single turbo old 280 or 300z would be nice but it's going to be mustang or just keep the maxima. Not looking to debate setups but as for the dyno curve everyone knows that can be changed by swapping turbos. The dyno you looked at mostly likely were running smaller turbos to spool fast remember these are pushrod motor and make power different. I also know tons of guys personal and not online with stangs drive them daily, run 11's and never break. Also I way more options with a fox body is I get bored, bigblock, sbc, ls1, rb, 2jz, etc and with the maxima not so much

Also this is from someone with no basis, I will drive anything and own a import and muscle car currently and would drop a nissan or chevy motor and a stang without thinking twice.

 

you wasn't saying supra when I started up my truck

btw, nitrous ls1 swapped 240/300z>turbo supra
ls1 can make 500hp n/a easy

 

All this talk about supra this, v8 that, truck this, ls1 that and no pic or vids!!!! LAGGING!

 

This is the motor in my truck

 

Shiny valve covers and pulling 2 spark plugs do make you go faster
