Right now it has no exhaust, a boost leak because I gotta cap off a hole in the intake pipeing, and no wideband. So I took it for a short drive, and at idle/below 3k rpm it was really sputtering and it would stall occationally (I would guess because the O2 sensor is ziptied in the engine compartment?) but it sounds badass. But I have a couple qs

1) For the vortec, I take the line from the pressure regulator on the rail (by the firewall), plug it into the outside plug on the fpr, then run a line from the center plug on the fpr to where the origional line was?

well ill ask more qs as I think of them =)

 

Have fun blowing your **** up.

 

nono! thats just till I get the exhaust welded up, all I did was drive it (very lightly) a mile to my autolab. Ill have a full exhaust/LC-1 on there this week. I dident ghetto rig my stuff if thats what your thinking lol.

 

What are you using for timing control?

 

bipes, with a o2 clamp. The setup is as follows

T3 garett off a merc (rebuilt)

begi mani

a combo of stripes and begi intercooler pipes

18x12x3 intercooler

bipes acu / o2 clamp

full 2.5 inch exhaust (when I get it on)

set at 5 to 6 psi

 

Vortec FPR? Bipes/O2/FPR is a nice setup for those boost levels. Lots of ****** retards running around this forum recently, pounding 7-10psi into their motors with no timing control/no wideband/no fuel control. Get that LC-1 installed, make sure it's tuned right, and have fun.

 

yeah, vortec fpr. Am I right with the routeing of the fuel lines as stated above? And yah, I am makeing sure I do this right, I spent like 8 months getting all the stuff together.

 

WTF are you trying to say save.

 

It's a cryptic message for your mom, Magna.

 

timing control can be done with retarding the cas but you will lose low end torque...right now im running 7 deg. base timing @ 8lbs with addition of a vortec 8:1 fmu and 190hp walbro...its running fine no knock and afrs go rich as it i take the rpms higher!!!---10.9-11.0 roughly @ 5.5k+...

 

Another question, what kind of AFRs should I aim for under boost? between 11 and 12?

 

12-1 or so no more than 12.7
