RB20DET_Z Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 After months of work Ive finished the first major round of work on my 71' 240. The new mods include: Port/Polished/Decked head Tomei HG ARP harware GReddy timing belt Aeromotive FPR Precision Turbo 525cc injectors Holset HY35 turbo Turbonetics wastegate with screamer pipe Custom 3in downpipe Custom intercooler piping New raditor and fans New gauges I also prettied up the engine bay a little bit, still waiting to do a wire tuck and a deep cleaning. The car was tuned at Rage Tek in Davie, Florida. Nemo is a wiz with the Electromotive ECU. Due to a failing crank position sensor bracket the car occasionally wants to stall at idle and starts to break up badly past about 6500rpm when at WOT. Still with thoes issues the car made 225whp and 203tq at 6500rpm pushing only 10psi. Im having a new bracket machined out of billet aluminum and the car will go back in for more tuning at ~20+psi and this time all the way to 8k/rpm. With the numbers Ive got so far Im thinking my original goal of close to 400whp and 350+tq is deifinitly attainable. We managed to get it to pull to about 7200 once or twice and it kept making power. Is anyone else running a similar setup? If so what kind of numbers are you seeing? Im excitied to see what this car can really do. With only 225 to the wheels and not revving to redline the car is already very quick. Im anxious to see what another 150whp feels like. Ill post links to a few short videos later. The car sounds amazing. Thanks for reading, and drive safe everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
