This happened today

Not everything today but disassembled my 74 shorty & basically new DR stage 3 heads. Already have a 75 crank. Just getting everything ready to ship to Ray, hopefully this week if I can find a crate. Put together a valve spring & retainer just because lol. Trying to at least get the long block assembled before the new year.

A bit of pre-trackday preparation; new brake rotors & fluid plus a service.

If anyone is curious how my spool is:

2/3 throttle and goes 0 to 20 PSI from 3400 to 4200 in .6 seconds. That's with the boost only set at 17, still tuning the boost control. This is in 2nd gear.

I've seen 12 PSI at like 2300 RPM.

It comes on about like nitrous, decent power, then bam out of nowhere hauling. Its a lot of fun. Probably keep it at 20 PSI this winter and dial everything in a little bit better. The car really likes about 11.6 to 12.2 AFR. It struggles to ignite a full throttle load at < 11.2:1 or so.

That boost curve looks like the RS's boost... but you make way more power

Must be a total f'ing blast to drive your car, the near insta-spool is fun!

It is a lot of fun, just better have it pointed where you want to go when boost really hits. I doubt its really making all that much power right now, but its fun.

You need a ride in my car

Different feeling than your tq monster though. My roads are curvy backroads, hilariously fun when 700+awhp unleashes all at once when converter and turbo both get into action at 7500rpm. Before that....10:1 NA 2.0l...lol. And yes, better be pointed straight!

Today I finally finished rebuilding the front steering rack. Tomorrow to bolt it all in and start on the new wideband.

Pulled subframes and suspension off my old shell over the weekend, should be taking delivery on my blue 95 VR4 shell this coming weekend.
