cockerstar Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 Running meth+water injection? How much boost? Looks really clean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letitsnow Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 So where do you hide the injectors? Everybody knows blowthrough doesn't work. I like it, not many blowthrough L28's, especially with a holley carb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
280zex Posted September 28, 2009 Author Share Posted September 28, 2009 no meth, no water, no innercooler, no hidden injectors. 8psi boost for now. still have a small leak on the oil feed line and a minor exhaust leak. heres a short video!!

h4nsm0l3m4n Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Awesome setup! Next step, fuel injection via GM TBI Throttle Body + Megasquirt and intercooler? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeleriousZ Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 I heart pudding. Setup looks great man! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boardkid280z Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 That looks and sounds awesome. Very nice and clean setup. Do you just have a cone filter on the turbo inlet? I can't see any other ducting to the compressor inlet. If so, do you have any plans to run that inlet from a colder air source? like up in front of the radiator? The inlet air temperature could be reduced a lot by doing that it seems. I like it, especially if it works well. No need to get complicated with meth, water, temp sensors, hobbes switches, TBI etc. What size exhaust do you have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
280zex Posted October 1, 2009 Author Share Posted October 1, 2009 Cone filter comming in mail with some other goodies. Picked up an oil cooler today. I used the local tuner shops thermal gun and checked out the incomming oil line temps. 235 deg!! damn hot!! I am going to run an innercooler but don't have one yet. Still looking at some others pix here to see what works out best. Probibly go under the oil pan then out the passenger side core support to the cooler then to my carb hat. then I can goto 10psi boost. Still runs a bit too rich at cruze 10 afr. WOT is right on 11.5 afr all the way through 5th. Man I love on ramps!! Turbo makes a hellova noise too. no hiding that one!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozconnection Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 Great stuff! Love the old skool look with the Holley etc. Just curious, what made you decide to use a 4 barrel Holley? I wish you luck with one of those. I say that because I have enough trouble tuning one on a N/A engine. What kind of ignition? Do you have some kind of boost retard? Anyway, looks great!! Well done mate. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
