it's a pretty basic build up too. it's definitely not out of anybody's reach this type of power. Most everything can be picked up off the shelf off of some website. The real fabrication is the intercooler plumbing, mounting the intercooler, and the downpipe. That track run wasn't done w/ a 2.3L 56mm throttle body, not my current LS1 75mm setup either. It's once again a straightforward build.

cant wait to get mine started. Hopefully gonna try to emulate blackjacks build. Not quite as wild though.

what TB did u use then if not the 56mm or the ls1 sorry typos all over the place... stock 2.4L throttle body, so 52mm, modified to fit a 2.3HO manifold... :-x

nice, how easy is it to fit the ls1 tb? Im gettin sum ideas when I do mine, secret cam, 2.3 heads, forged iternals maybe even a custom made bottom end and so forth. You said ur running a gt30 turbo?

spyhunter
02-15-2007, 02:59 AM
yes Garrett GT30R. LS1 t/b how easy is it? Um, lop off the old t/b flange on a 2.3ho manifold, have a new flange made at a place that does CNC/waterjet/whatever type of cutting, weld the new flange on, find some way to secure the linkage, weld it on, clean it up, and you're all set.

Side note: the 2.3Ho manifold I'm using is a loaner until I build my intake manifold. I have a 2.4L intake manifold flange made, now I just need to head on down and have them produce a throttle body flange, for my new 75mm throttle body. It should be mad tyte. Sheet metal intake manifold? FTMFW!

Yeah my bottom end isn't exactly custom, it's just JE slugs at stock compression and eagle rods.. Parts wise my bottom end is as basic as it gets. :)

I also have plans of upgrading my head beyond what I currently have setup. I'm going to be fitting 2.3HO valvetrain components to give the head more upper RPM stability then the current 2.4L valvetrain setup, plus I'll be fitting in over sized valves, getting ARP studs, and a metal headgasket. Maybe even try a new cam as well. Still in the early planning stages.

yeah sounds awesome dude, u definitely got a nice set up goin on.

damn 75mm tb that shit is mad huge...

Ill keep it in mind if I wanna go with the ls1 tb, shit maybe an ls2 would go good, yeah whenever I get my shit done I wanna step up the compression a lil bit, bore out the heads bigger and bore the cylinders 30 over.

get that custom crankshaft made and slap a big turbo on that ho and Ill be straight

What type of GT30R turbo is it (3037, 3071, etc.)? Also how much power was it putting down at the wheels for the 12.4 run? I'm lovin' the bronze Volks :thumb:

Once the car is all set and i'm happy with it again I'll be out maybe by the end of February getting some seat time.

http://cheapturbo.stores.yahoo.net/garrettgt3076r.html that exact one w/ the .63 a/r *smaller* option.

I have no idea what I was putting to the wheels then. The last time I hit a dyno was back in May'ish when I threw down 362hp and 365tq, on a mustang dyno.

^^ still sweet fuckin numbers dude, u got some competition with blackjack tho I dunno what hes pushin yet.

Apparently I have a whole lot of competition. Two guys on GAGT.com also are competition, but only one of them has hit 12's from actual evidence that i have seen. Schweppe on gagt.com is claiming 12.6's, and claiming to have done so numerous times.

Funny thing, everytime I go to the track I only get at most 3 to 4 runs, and everytime I go I post up something faster than last time.

regardless though, i know the competition is gonna bite my ass, that's why I keep on tweaking my setup, which may eventually end up being a whole new motor down the road.

W/ boost altitude doesn't have that great of an effect on motors. Especially when I've got LVMS, and I'm only 2000ft up.
