20600, Stage 3 HRC-15 psi.
Posted by turbosrule, Apr-26-02 03:01 PM
Ok I have the internals build-up
I have #42 injectors,S-afc on the way..
What else will I need to see 15 psi.

of corse I have FMIC and boostcontroller.
with the S-afc will I still need the blackbox for the map sensor that comes with stage 2???

If I was you I would get some sort of timing control. Like the Crane Ignition that I have with the boost retard, also a clutch if you are still running the stock one. Other than that, I think thats it....

15psi w/ just injectors as internals? I dunno about that guys. I had injectors, SAFC, boost controller and a FMIC but I blew probably when it spiked to 10.5psi twice. Im only pushing 4psi now and waiting for boost controller. I wouldn't go above 8psi unless your compression is really good and u got the $ to back up a REAL rebuild like pistons/rods etc in case something happens. I just dont want you to go through same crap I did bro. Good luck and no getting greedy.

well, you need to get rid of those crappy hahn rubber elbows on the ic piping now, cause they definately wont handle 15psi, have elbows welded on your piping, or get expensive silicone elbows reinforced for like 50 bukcs a piece from thermalflex. Also, if you want to spool faster, you might get hahn's 3'' downpipe instead of that smaller one, and a 3'' exhaust if you dont already have one. This isnt a must, i ran more boost on smaller piping, but when i redid the exhaust, i noticed a BIG change in spoolup and it had better mannors in the city.

Will the HRC 3" downpipe work with our set-up(by that I mean our 420A's). I need a bigger downpipe, I can't run that stock shit with my 3" exhaust! Will I need to modify that or what?

last time I talked to HRC they didn't have one for our cars yet. This may have changed because that was like two months ago. If someone knows that they do for sure have them let me know. I want one bad.

Hey turbosrule i'm running 15psi right now with 42lbs ford injectors, safc, and corbin's safc boost mod (get it if you dont have it already, its awesome).

I already have blown connections off my intake piping (i have the hrc fmic like you do), and lack traction like there is no tomorrow.

Gimme a howler sometime and i can talk to you about the stuff i had to deal with.

The spoolup time and behavior DOES change i.e. low boost behavior and boost spike can be a hassle with my stock exhaust and the standard hrc downpipe, but when it hits, it HITS.
