52400, Damn 15psi feels good.
Posted by Kirby, Jul-21-03 01:26 PM
Well, Corbin and I did some tuning on saturday. The car is at 15psi and as soon as I kill this oil leak I'm going for 18 daily. The car is fast as nuts, and the 2.2L makes it realy torque-e. I don't have any 2.0L 15psi cars to compare to, but damn this thing pulls. It's been so long since I drove my car in boost, I can't really give a good description of the difference. But I have had a permagrin that tells me it's worth it. I will try to get to a dyno in Aug,(hopefully at that crossroads thing) And will be going to the track as well just as soon as I get the oil fixed, and can afford it. The 8 injector setup works great.

And here are some pics of the install:


Kirby and Mike Jury examining the fine american craftsmanship


I have no idea what Jeremy Sturm is doing here (perhaps I don't want to know)


My Talon and Jeremy's Avenger (installing fuel pressure gauge in Avenger)


Determining the exact weight of the old tranny


The old 2.0 on its way out


Kirby confirming that the engine has indeed been removed


Stripping donor parts of the 2.0 to place on the 2.2 (in blue)


About 30 minutes from when we left Kirby with two half built engines and a pile of parts

Whats up man

Just wanted to let you know tha I dynoed my car at the DSM Shootout
Although the numbers are NOT spectacular, I think that the car did decent COMPLETELY untuned. Running CRAZY LEAN ( 18:1 ) at 14 psi. Need to disable my stock FPR and finally tune with the SFMU

Max hp 236.2
Max Trq 272.5
@ 14 psi

A/F and cam tuning will be the main goal for now!!!

Car still pulls strong as HELL at 14 psi
