i put on the SBR exhaust manifold already. before results was 15.089@89mph completely stock. im automatic also btw....ill post after results in a few weeks.
Power brake in the auto and you can still get a mean launch. Build about 5-6 pounds at the line.
Good luck with it.
I put on his PLX wideband yesterday, the 255 today, the injectors, turbo and frontmount are going on ths weekend progressively
so the mod list to date is-
EGT
Boost
Wideband
SBR ported manifold
Hybrid connection 02 housing
BIg ass downpipe (oh yeah devin i need to talk to you about that, your flexpipe is messed up)
RSR catback
255lph fuel pump
GM MAFS
Dejon tool blowthrough pipes
Injen intake
MAFT for tuning
this weekend
50 trim!!!! This thing is guaranteed 12s
5-6 pounds? um im getting 15-17ish on my stock turbo, im sure the 50 trim wont make that huge of a difference. whats up with the downpipe?
Looks like that's going to be funIs that the cast SBR manifold or one of their tubular ones? I want to get the cast one from them, just wondering how you like it?
its not tubular, but hte ports are HUGE on it. great flow and you can get it with ext or internal wastegate setup. Its a really goodp iece.
what he said....and grant give me a call later, u said something about wanting to see my turbo. i just called you and you didnt answer.
iw as wondering the site you ordered it off of, i cant remember and my computer is down at home
I see you took my advice. Let me know when you wanna get it tuned.
well the 50 trim is in,
injectors is in
the FMIC is gonna be on tomorrow hopefully
gotta pick up some, AT fluid, oil, etc
FP Red Turbo?
Anyone ran it or know anyone who is running? I'm curious as to what kind of number it actually produces since it's a hybrid.

grant...give me a call at some point tonight...tomorrow i guess, but tonight is better. i decided AGAINST stenciling the front mount, at least for now. keep a tab of how much i owe you. i also need to know if u can finish tomorrow or no....
if everything goes to plan, yes it will be done tomorrow, ill be there around 9-930 in the morning to start but it shoudl be fine, i gotta run to autozone in the morning on the way and grab some oil, your tranny fluid, a small section of hose, the intake filter, 3 inline hose connectors, and some hose clamps and as long as i dont have shit like your radiator not fitting, broken bolts nad other stuff, it should be done
so we're taking out my intake? damn....try and find a connector, if not then i guess i have no other choice..please leave a voicemail tomorrow also saying if u finished or not(i may or may not answer, as you know ill be in school).
yeha, ill do my best, i gotta check it out, if i can it will be better, but if not you always can find a buyer for more than you paid for it
Thousands of dsm people have used fp reds and even more have used greens.Originally Posted by StarOfOrion
Anyway post more pics of the progress!
i took two pics yesterday(camera phone quality)---wasn't going to post these, but you requested.
and might i say, this car has some of the worst rusted bolts i haev ever seen in my life, the bottom mounting point for the FMIC bolt is broken off, so i have a drill it out and put a bigger sheetmetal screw in to hold it. Not to mention EVERY bolt holding hte bumper on except the 5 center bolts broke
the 4 on the sides, and like 5 underneath
the radiator doesnt fit becuase of the wastegate, i had to cut off a large amoudn of plastic on teh left fan shroud and one of the cross supports, wil have to cut some of the blades off as well, the compressor BARELY fits by the block, the inlet on the 50 trim is 3" in diameter, its huge, and i made a huge mess doing it all. but it was fun, and my first 50 trim, but really easy once i got into it, minus all the shit setting me back
and cutting the lines w/ tranny fluid
How much was the turbo?
It's gonna be FUN!!!
Good luck.
lol yeah that too, forgot it uses tranny fluid. i had to do it because the top mounting bracket was soo rusted i couldnt get it off, i could just mount an external tranny cooler (just use an oil cooler )in front of your frount mount, itd be cool
i think it was like 855 and 150 or somethign for hte instal kit
Ahhh the 155 2g install kit.
Any mods gonna get done to the tranny? Valves or anything?
shift kit very soon, eventually a 4k stall Torqe converter
^^maybe torque converter, definitely shift kit. im still not sold on torque converter. will somebody please explain to me in detail how it works...and how it will effect my daily driving? the way i think of it is like a stall converter, and my car wont launch untill a preset rpms are hit.
You might wanna switch to slimline fans with that setup. That's how I do the install on them for that setup and larger. You still wanting to tune it, or you have something else planned?
lol, the let fans are not gonna work for a lil while, i had to hack it to get it to fit, but the radiator is in, everything works, runs, MAFS check engine light, but the GM MAFs works, no lumpy idle and wideband says its good. SO far it hits like 10 psi
but ive only been aroudn base
It depends on where devin wants to go to tune it
id like to get it tuned asap....also depending on the price of a shift kit, id like to go ahead and get that. 10psi on this feels ABOUT like 20psi on the other, maybe pulls a little harder, and definitely alot more turbo lag. something needs to be done about the launch, cant build up hardly any boost at all. i didnt try putting my boost higher because u told me not to, so...get back to me.
throw it top high it goes to 17 i think
Yeah the launch sucks, the shift kit would deff help, but it deff feels alot stronger adn when i lean it out just a bit to the 11.5 AFR range, it will be nice
i CAN put it on high? when can we tune it with MAFT/wideband? and uh..do you have a solution to the launch? is the tq converter the only thing you know of, if it is please explain it to me...
I would get a SAFC in additon to the maft setup. You'll be able to do get a MUCH better tune when you use both together. It's very difficult to get a good tune with just the maft, so nearly all the dsm's owners I tune for opt for the safc to piggyback with the maft. You're gonna need a stall+ with new valvebody to get get the most out of that tranny. AT.dsm.org will have more of the info you're looking for. There are some people that have had a lot of success with modifying the automatic dsm tranny, so check it out.
the translab shift kit is the valve body upgrade
and the torque converter ist he other thing. When you egtt he TQ conv you will have a HUGE difference in a launch.
but for now the MAFT will work for you, and get you close enough
answer my question though grant....CAN I RUN my car with my boost controller on 'high' ?
Do you have the maft setup to tune rpm load points? If not all it does is tune globally. It might get you "safe" but it wont get you close. With a 50trim setup, on that car, you need to tune to get that thing to spool up. Anyway, I guess you have it all under control, good luck with it.
yeah it wont spool worth a damn, im hoping the tune will help it out. grant im dying to turn up the boost on this, if you think it is okay to put it on 14/15 (maybe just for a few pulls) call and leave a voice mail please.
