As always. After all I did literally re-write their book in 2006. 8)


Car fired up last night. Since its 10ish here, that's all I was going to do last night! Making a Summit run for trans Fluid/proper boost gauge, and a few others tonight.

Update-

Just got some parts in from Justin @ Detective Coatings. SICK work! Best powder coating work I have seen in a long time, and best pricing around!

http://detectivecoating.webs.com/

Pics will be up this weekend.

I will also be on the dyno tomorrow, but only for some intake manifold testing. Stay tuned for pics and results. :) Car will not be at full song for this, but will be back on the dyno for final touch ups before the season starts in a few weeks.

Again big thanks to Detective coating for the great work and the very fast turn around. Everything was packaged very well. No one should have a hesitation sending him anything just because he is not local! Best work I have seen in a while.

I will admit the green in pictures was scary-but in person it is SICK. Iridescent almost with a "white pearl" effect. I love it!

Small update. tried to do some IM testing and it turned out to be just a LONG night. Reason? The stock Colt Clutch Master gets int he way of EVERYTHING-I forgot how much room putting it IN the car gave me!

Took forever to swap, found a leaky injector seal that had to be fixed and then the car retested-when it was all said and done I only made test pulls @ 19psi, and 24psi. It was such a pain in my ass I doubt I will ever do any more testing like this.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BsP3IAsM ... e=youtu.be

I did make some good observations though.

Stock Vs Venom, both on stock TBs

1)The Kelfods are a MUCH better top end Cam than the Comp101200s. No back to back, but looking at old dynos of cars I have tuned, the power band was still climbing at 8k, with BOTH manifolds!

2) The stock IM kicks ass below 6500. At any boost level, the car did not make more power until after 6400. Also, at 19psi power did not fall off at 8k with the stock IM-the Kelfords are keeping the band nice and flat. Would this be different with 40psi? Maybe, but I doubt it. Would this be better with a differing IM? Maybe-but at this point I TRULY feel that if you do not go north of 8000rpm or north of 500whp, the stock IM, IMO, is the bets manifold for the job. Any turbo, any power level.

3) at 19psi, BOTH manifolds were within 5hp- stock at 445, Venom at 450-but the Venom had a much later peak and the stock IM had better power under the curve. At 24 Psi the stock IM Saw 484whp and the Venom made 507. This was with no additional tuning-11.0 AFRs on a pump/E85 mix. As the boost goes up, the Venom starts shining. I would attribute this to the plenum volume, and shorter runners which lend themselves for high RPM airflow.

On the street-the loss of low end torque is evident with the SMIM. Some I am sure could be gained back with tuning, but it is a totally different car-much, much less"torquey" off boost.

Conclusion-

The stock IM really did impress me, and I truly feel any car with power goals around 500whp, or a redline south of 8k really may be better off with it. The car had more "fun" factor on the street with the stock IM, and the powerband showed it. The Kelfods carried the power great to 8k even with the stock IM at mild boost. With a higher redline though, and loft power goals, a SMIC should still be on your list of needed parts-but I feel a good cam should be first on the list.


Big thanks to Eric@ Backstreet performance for allowing us to use the dyno!

Nice write up! I did it backwards, put the intake mani on and now I am finally upgrading the cams, lol. Can't stand to have parts sitting around.

Yikes-have not updated this in a while!! Small part out left the car without manifolds- Car is now on a Stock intake/TB, and a PP Modified Pacesetter mani to accept the PTE V-band-Car makes 554whp@32psi and is downright violent in Boost. Full interior-no cage. Also now tuned on SD.

See you at the shootout. :)

Went 10.8@142 with a 1.9 60 Foot with literally, a bunch of junk and 110% Duty Cycle. Great Shootout!

Elvin and Miguel has some issues we will have to Sort out-all GrassRoots Vehicles stayed home.


Best Pass 10.8@142 (1.9 60 ft-33psi)

Only pic I have for now

Video of Pass. Better ones to come.

BUMP!

This car was sold to a Guy from Chicago. Anyone see it running around out that way?
