Yeah, I think the 17's are very much too big. This thing needs some 15's on it, with some meaty sidewall action.
I'm thinking 16's. Better for high speeds. :axe:

How good does that stock fan work in front of that afco? I might give that a try also, slim fans just don't seem to have any ass to them.
Long story of how, but the IC is actually mounted upside down and on an angle-so there is a good bit of room up front. :rolleyes:

Car has almost 100miles of 14b flogging. Motor is still together so I guess its party time! :)

I did score a very good deal on a turbo set up. A special order only small tube Shearer V-Band manifold, with a BNIB V-band in/out 6262, with homemade DP. I am going to try and have this on the car tomorrow and go from there. Should make for a wicked street set up.

Small vs large tube

Had a few minutes to spare last night so I fabbed up a down-pipe, IC, and oil lines. She's ready for a test drive tomorrow.:eek:

Took it for a 1/2 hour cruise last night, runs perfect-needs an alignment. Went to Forced Fags, no one was there! Got gas, roll down 480, tuned around and came home.

Took Coldwater for a rip, he likes it for just 13psi.:). Still needs a few hours of wiring to make it tune/race worthy.

Hey. What seat brackets did you use?
I've got a seat of NR-G seats, but no one makes brakets for the 94 Mirage!!

With the wife down with food poisoning (Clam bake+party hard=Long Sunday) I had some free time this evening since we canceled dinner plans.

Installed AEM WB, Autometer Boost gauge, Maximum Motorsports Mechanical oil pressure gauge, and a Shift light (no tach cluster). Semi-permanent, but it will work for now. Decided to chase a boost issue. It hits 14 on the spring, rolls to 30 soon after. Obviously a bypass issue, I figured it was a sticky WG valve, or a bad diaphragm. A little trouble shooting found the China Gate has a "set screw" that I assume is uses to raise boost-well it was buried all the way down ,l restricted the gate from opening more than an inch. Took it apart-reassembled- and took it for a rip to test it out.

Holds 14psi well now. We should be Fuel pumps, and a Data port away from a base tune. I am VERY impressed with this turbo/manifold combo. Thing feels like a freaking 2.4 torque wise. Currently at 10.5to 10.8 to 1 WOT. But dyno says 350-380 whp as I drove it tonight. Car rips for untuned gate spring action! :)

Took it out with some local hooligans last night. At 18psi and 10 to 1 AFR's, I pulled a good bus length + on modded Zo6 (C5, HC) so I am happy with the results thus far. :) Waiting on some guys to get their junk ready and then dyno time.

Also odd- after the last pull, car ran erratically. Did a log, showed what looked like a bad MAF. Odd. Got home to find this-

Got lucky it did not have a meeting with my compressor wheel!!
