Thanx. This is my first Turbo charged car! I need some time to get used to it! Any ways, Today I got a chance to start the car and take it for a run! The car started fine and run well for 5 to 10 min, after that it slowly started to run richer and richer!! can this be a vacum leak?

I will but in 3 weeks, first I need to install my new clutch and the water alcohol injection kit. This is joey325i old car. He had it he dynod 310rwhp with a slipping clutch untuned at 13psi, with no detonation.

[farzad97m3]

Plz help me out! I shotting for 500whp with this set up, But I will be happy with 450whp aslo . Right now I am running 3" piping from IC to TB and 2" from turbo to IC, is that good enough or should I upgrade to 2'' from turbo to IC?

[CeeP]

500 whp?
might want a different turbo.

I thought the garrett t60-1 turbo supports up to 600hp, correct me if I am wrong! I am planning to upgrade to a sc61 0.63, but that will be next summer!

It shouldnt be a problem getting your car to 400 rwhp. ICS did a 406 run with just a hg gasket and arp studs. Stock 2.5 motor.

agreed ... get to the dyno .. lets see where u are ... and then we can figure out how to get you where you wanna be. good luck!

[farzad97m3]

The car is running, But I failed the emission! It idles to high and can get it registered !! Could the high Idlel be caused by a vacum leak in the piping?

One more thing, I have a HKS air fuel contorller, does`t need to be conected all the time?

Shuasha: Have you dynoed your car since the gt35 upgrade? What power do you make/predict with the altered tt stg 2 setup?

[EuroBeem]

Looking forward to the results
