BlackPearl's V2 Build: The Steed and the 69 sxe

[Da Infammus 1]

So A/c is working. There was a relay in the tec3 harness that had one connector unplugged. Plugged it in and all was well. I found a rear seat cushion, so interior is complete minus A-pillars. I'll be ordering those soon. My new hood is also going to be painted after the New year.

I'll also be selling my id1000's pretty soon. I'm going to upgrade to the id1700's. The 1000's just aren't enough above 5500 rpm.

Who tunes your car? Kinda surprised the 1k aren't enough. Must be pushing some serious fuel.

They aren't enough. No surprise especially on ethanol.

IMHO they're only good till 700-750whp on ethanol with pretty high DC%

[BlackPearlZ]

I tune myself. But yeah when I made 760 that was 100% DC, and a 11.3 afr. I calculated 800whp limit with 50psi base pressure and 30psi of boost.

Interesting, good to know for future reference. Might have to make a trip to WPB soon to see my cousin, maybe JuCo and I can see this car run lol.

Let me know when you're coming!

Put some id1700x injectors in. These are small body injectors therefore fitment was a little different due to the plugs being lower. It required detaching the injector plugs from the harness cover. There are little rubber grommets, that you remove, and gives about an inch of wire slack needed to reach the plugs.

My id1000's with pnp adapters will be up for sale shortly. About 1000 miles on them.

Any good place to buy the 1700x? The least i found was 1500$!!!

[BlackPearlZ]

I can get them for you for $1375 shipped

Are you aware about the MAP fiasco last week?

I am not. I'm not a direct dealer of theirs, just have the hookup.

I don't get it

I don't get it

Internet price < MAP

Paul called him on it. (He sets the MAP after all!)

FB banned him.

[wazzu70]

So who is the guy associated with that was selling the injectors below MAP? I assume MAP is Manufacturers Advertised Pricing/MSRP? At first I thought you mean MAP as in https://www.maperformance.com/

What psi was that at?

[BlackPearlZ]

25ish with a boost leak. That fitting on the back of the manifold keeps popping out slightly. Never had a problem with it until the last 3 times I drove the car.

That sounds real good. Nice and smooth too.

[1SLWM3]

Sounds nasty! Love how hard it looks like it's pulling too.

[BlackPearlZ]

Thanks guys, when that turkey neck isn't half popped out it's a lot better. Usually 3rd gear is sideways.

I'm gonna order a diff here soon. Was leaning towards a 2.93, but I saw the ICS guy swearing by the 2.79. My plan is a half mile event at the end of March.

I'm starting to lean towards using the Winters Quick change on my next project. The diff on my 330i was over $5k....which could have easily paid for a Winters conversion, and given me a host of easily changeable gear ratio options.

[someguy2800]

A quick change would be going backwards in the strength department. I think the gear noise would drive me nuts.

That seems interesting

188.
