Who has a Quaife gear box? From where, and how much? Don't see it on FM's site anymore.

 

I don't know if this is what your looking for but here ya go:

I have a boost farm as well teehee

 

Yeah, found it, thanks though. Big bucks eh. I'll stick with my T5 plan then.

I didn't know FailF. was running the quaife set. Niice!

 

I highly doubt even a 6sp will hold up very long with 600+ or whatever he will make.
My buddy blew 6th going wot on the freeway at only 500ish

 

But the torsen can hold that power then?! That'd be good to know.

 

Highly doubt it. Last we've discussed em the general opinion was they start snapping past 300

 

No quaife or 949 in there yet. That was just a second gear pull so the real comparison will be in my 1:1 gear. It's still raining and snowing and slushing here.

 

949 what? Diff or clutch?

 

Twin disk clutch

 

35 psi + snow = you's gunna crash

 

No quaife. Just a 6 speed. And now a mazdaspeed tranny. I think I will put in a tranny cooler.

949 clutch twin ceramic going in next weekend with the loving hand of soviet

 

How are you able to push so much boost on pump? Everyone is telling me even with a built motor I probably will have a hard time breaking 300 whp.... seems like with a good flowing head and forged bottom I could push more than that.

 

Faeflora has a turbo the size of a girls basketball.

 

Bigger turbo, not working as hard...less heat.

 

I've seen 300rwhp be made at 15psi and a stock motor...

 

I heard the same rumor, and something about a crazy exhaust.

 

nothing crazy; just know what you're doing.

 

Everyone is dumber than rocks.


This Shirley can't apply to me.

 

BTW I did see some knock last night over 32psi. No surprises there. Gotta spray my meth.

Regarding tuning, I'm going to follow the Evo crowd. They have done a huge shitton of R&D on making power out of a four cylinder. That recipe means more boost, very little timing at high boost, very conservative AFR. Going to target 11:1 gas AFR over 15psi. Will ramp up to 10pct meth at 15psi and up to 20pct meth at 40psi. That will drag the gauge AFR down to 10:1 @ 15psi and 9:1 @ 40psi. That will cost a lot of power and potentially cause spark wet out but it would theoretically be very safe since I would be at 11:1 on pump if the meth system fails. We will have to see if it works. If not, I'll target 10.5:1 gauge AFR with meth, use the WI fuel trim table to take out fuel, and rely on the aquamist failsafes.

Opinions?
