3800 Made some changes

[imported_Ron Vogel]

Finally got it up and running this afternoon. No more black on the SC, and I repainted a few things, and cleaned some others. Ported some stuff better...and oooh, looky what's under the SC now?

I see a new IC. Have you scanned yet? That IC looks real nice

Is that the much talked about new WBS IC?
One of those PnP'd blowers would look good under my hood

 

[M@]

2.6?

 

[imported_Ron Vogel]

No not yet. I got about a 10 min drive in, so I'm not dropping pulley sizes until it's deemed safe. I'm leaving the 2.8 on there now until the car's dialed in. I put my Lucas 38# injectors back in, so the whole tune's getting redone from scratch. I'd like to have the 2.6 on there tomorrow though.

Looking good Ron.

 

[imported_PaceCarBoozer]

Looks good Ron, why does your blower look so shiny? Is it paint or did you polish the outside too?

 

[Royalgtp]

I used paint remover and a wire wheel on it. The snout I had to paint. Got almost all the black and the original powdercoat off it...but then I ran out of paint remover and paitience...so I painted it silver. I'm hoping the SC case will dull down a bit...it's too shiney for me.

Well, I did the VE and MAF tunes so far. Bear in mind I have 5 year old 100 octance race gas in my tank right now (don't ask) so the new core may not be performing as well as it should.

However; things look real good.

To do the VE tune, you need to disconnect the MAF and turn off PE mode. I was going WOT like this hitting 18-19degrees of timing at 14.7 AFR, and seeing no KR.

I got up to corners plugged in the new VE table, then headed back home to scan the MAF changes. Now the MAF is hooked up, I re-enabled PE mode, but set it to 12.1 AFR over the 11.53 AFR I was running with the ILGPC IC. Same timing, I started getting some KR blips here and there, and got 2 degrees of burst KR punching the throttle at 50ish.

I'm going to knock down the AFR to 11.9, and raise the timing to about 20 degrees. Once the race gas in the car is out, I'll get some fresh 93 in it and put the 2.6" pulley on.

that's not big deal, I've done a VE tune and I've gone WOT to hit the higher portions of the table and I didn't see any kr either and this is with no intercooler.
the majority the the guys on the dhp board don't have any kr when they do WOT runs with PE disabled.
and you did a VE tune that fast? it usually takes a couple weeks to get the VE table completely dialed in so all of your cells are locking within 1.0 +/- ?
I know maf can be done in a couple hours.

Wow, I didnt notice at first, but look at that swiss cheese TB bracket.

weight saving..


ron i didnt recieve my maff connector from ed morad yet.. ill let you know once i do.

Looks great Ron, but why not the 36 angle sandwich? Or is it..hard to tell?

How long did the polish job take you?

Mike

 

[Mike K]

Ron's running the "36 angle" sandwich.

 

[GTPquickRB]

um....whats the 36 angle sandwich?? now im hungry

 

[Mike K]

I was comparing the machine time into our intercooler with the machine time into our competition's stating that each one of our plates had 36 angles while the competition's only had 13.

You tool! h34r: :lolsign:

 

[imported_GraFFix]

I just noticed this...how do you have your coil packs mounted? looks like it would be a PITA to change plugs with it in the way. but I kinda like them there also...Did you do that because of your blower belt tensioner thingy?

Anyways looks clean...nice work.

 

[Mike K]

Ron has a vacuum pump installed that would interfere with the stock coil pack location.

 

[imported_GraFFix]

Ahh I remember reading about that too, just cant see it thats all...Thanks!
