Cody what do you think the car can handle with your upgrades

 

Well JDMKID35 maxed out his injectors at 22psi, 1000cc Precisions and GT35R turbo. He hit 572whp(I think anyway). The GT1 manifold setup is quite a bit more efficient so power will be quite a bit higher at 22psi. I wont run this thing much over 500whp as I would like to have a Mobile car this winter(so I can move it in, out of the shop at-will).
The goal for this build is a crazy-fast road course car Building the cage as soon as I pinch enough pennies to purchase a hydraulic attachment for my bender.

 

excellent what are your feelings on porting the head to gain some more power. im shooting for the 500 mark as well like I told u in the pm"s looks like your going for the autoX car im going for the Drag race car.... ill buy ya a beer in the winners circle :0)

 

Im sure porting helps; but dollar/hp doesnt make a lick of sense to me. Id rather turn up the boost a little more. Hell, a ported head is the same cost as a sleeved block! Which would you rather have?

 

well the head im gettin done for free by Vinny Ten hes one of my good friends and ports like a mofo. than turn the boost up and see how she reacts. yes the block is like 1500 bucks but what about the rest :0)

 

How soon is the expected completion date?

 

I hope soon!!

 

That has to be one of the nicest looking setups I have ever seen Truely a work of art........I have been looking for a nice F.I Setup for almos a year now...I have fought with the supercharger idea and the turbo idea and thats why I am stll undecided...I don`t know what I want...But everytime I see love-Fab come out with something new it makes turbo-Kits alot more apealing- I have a few questions on the new design


How much HP & TQ are you expecting? Is there a goal in mind?

How much will the new kit cost....

At what RPM do you see max boost?

What will be mx boost?

How does it/Will it compare to the other setups on the market (Full-Race mainly I see your kit is priced about the same as thiers) and even the earlier Love-Fab kits.....


P.S. The only reason I am asking these question is to help myself decide what is in my best interest...... not to put down your craftsmanship because I personaly think every kit you have made not only looks good but seems to do well.....Thanks JOhn

 

Well, I rove the car for the first time today; in snow and salt; the sacrafices I make!
I saw 7psi by 4000rpm, then I got out of the throttle because my CEL kicked on(overheating). Car is cooling down now for another round of coolant bleeding(I HATE this part!). I guessed closely on the new basemap, AFR's were in the high 11s the whole time
It pulled good and sounded like a jet-liner
The GT4088R kit wasnt really designed to be a production "kit". We have kits jigged to accept up to a GT35R which will easily make 600whp, which covers about 99% of the customer base. The GT4088R kit will easily add $1000 to the price as we will have to move off-jigs to build the kit on our spare S2000.

Did it feel like it pulls much harder than your old setup with the GT35R or is it comparable?

Remember though, you will probably have to add another 2 psi to gain back what you lost from the compression drop. Unless your new setup is that much better.
