Thumper Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 Yesterday the car started up. The last few days I finally got it running fairly well. Right now the boost is at 14psi spike then 13psi by redline. A/F ratio is 12.0-13.0 Timing is 28 degrees on a 83' ecu. I am going to retard the timing back to factory 24 degrees and turn up the boost after I do some more break in miles and tuning. Just wanted to say thanks to Olie (for coming over and helping me do the fun work on the fuel cell), On3go (for letting me use his lm-1 to help tune), and 73turbo240z (for letting me borrow a few parts and letting me tinker in his driveway). The car feels great and just wants to run to 6k every time. Can't wait intill I up the boost put my 3" exhaust on and new rear-end. My current specs are: 83' l28et Stock efi with afm 22 teeth tightened FPR at 40 psi 28 degrees MSD 6al with Blaster 2 Coil Magnecore Spark Plug wires Bpr6es-11 (Soon to be Bpr7es-11) 1g Bov recirculated 370cc SVO injectors JSK Fuel Rail Summit 16 gallon fuel cell Walbro 255 fuel pump 3/8" feed line with 5/16" return Custom 2.5" downpipe Crush bent 2.5" exhaust with crappy muffler (soon to be 3" mandrel and a straight through muffler) Volvo 960 intercooler 240sx 60mm throttle body Ported exhaust manifold, turbo, and intake manifold 280zx 5-spd tranny Stock flywheel with unknown but very good clutch 3.9 r200 diff (soon to be 3.545 or 3.36) 225/60 r15 Bfgoodrich Geforce Sports and lots of suspension and brake work Now to the pics. Thanks to Jeremy (73turbo240z) First pic is my Z and mike (on3go), well... being mike. Second pic is me standing beside my beautiful beast. And now pics of her.

slownrusty Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 Awesome pics...and congrats..car looks plain mean!I am surprised that you are running that kind of boost with stock electronics..I guess you are getting the fuel you need with the SVOs. Tell Mike we are starting a fund-raiser to buy him: and also looks like he still needs to see the Chiropractor for the funky-ness in his arms....LOL Yasin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
