2v quest for power

[punched281]

I don't know if this has been asked yet, but how much are you looking to lay down with the turbo? Will the nitrous still be used?

I am not using the Nitrous, hoping to sell it as a kit. But if not it'll go on my wife's car.

The motor on paper is good to about 900 but I'll be really happy with 600-700.

You know how that goes tho... Shooting for 700 and I'll make 385 lol

I'm sure her car could benefit from some giggle gas.

I'll have to check it out some time when you get it running. Who are you gonna have tune it?

Haha yea it would be sweet, but hers will be more of a road race car. And if I can get some cash for it I'll be happy.

For now I'll be doing the tuning. Tuning in a carb isn't too bad with a wideband. But I may have a guy named Steve do it in the springs here.

Gotcha, that wouldn't exactly be a good idea for a road race car.

Nice, I forgot that tuning was very simple when you only have to swap some jets around.

 

[punched281]

Yea should be pretty simple. I'm going with a good builder do should be pretty close to what I need

 

[Milehigh JDF]

Once it's up and running give me a shout when you head to Bandimere, I'd love to see how bad my Bullitt will get its ass kicked

 

[punched281]

Wait, you got another car!? And it's a Bullitt!? Do you have pictures of it!?

 

[Milehigh JDF]

Yeah I sold the black GT in February (I don't remember if I ever mentioned it). I bought a Corvette back in June but later traded that in on an 01 Bullitt. Here's how it sits now.

 

[punched281]

Yea I saw your car on craigslist and knew that but that is awesome you got into another car! And its blown! How much powa does it make?

 

[Milehigh JDF]

What's worse is I've seen it back up for sale two times since then. I've been sorely tempted to try and pick it back up. Previous owner claims 377whp and I don't know the torque. I plan on getting good a new tune for it once you tax return comes through.

Dang, what would you do with it?

I would bet its definitely up what he said. You got any plans for it?

I don't know, probably just drive it as a dd.

I'm sure it's gonna dyno just under that number. I plan on shooting from 450whp anyways

 

[punched281]

Oh I got ya, would be sweet! Still is pretty healthy! You could have fun doing a little bit of everything with it too

 

[Milehigh JDF]

Yep. I got a little spoiled driving my vette around so this one won't be a dedicated road course car like I wanted my old GT to be. It'll just be a fun cruiser

 

[punched281]

Yea the vettes are actually pretty sweet to drive around.

Turbo is in the mail, and sent the carb off to C&S finally. So I'm hoping spring break I can get this thing together!

 

[punched281]

Made a little progress, got the old exhaust off. Starting to figure out the intercooler and the piping.

I am going to pull the motor to weld in a return line bung on the oil pan. The carb is at C&S being built and they are saying about a 2 week turn around time.

 

[punched281]

Going to try and have it ready for the carb when I get it back.

Mocked everything up, fits good. Put the oil relocation majig on. And threaded the injector holes on the intake for a plug.

 

[Milehigh JDF]

Are you gonna go open downpipe out the bumper?

 

[punched281]

Are you gonna go open downpipe out the bumper?

I think I will, but not set on it yet. I don't have anything for after the Y pipe so I think I will end up doing it out the bumper.

That'll definitely make things simpler.
