Reply to "Turbo Owners"

My car is very easy to drive. I also want to go down in A/R. I get boost starting at 2000 and have full boost at 3000 (10 psi). I want full boost by 2500 or even 2000 rpm. Just dont want to get to restrictive. Currently I dont have wastegates. I just use a home made blow off valve to regulate boost. This winter I am adding intercoolers and Wastegates along with the new turbo housings and a custom intake. It is time to play with my car again.

In town driving is really good. I have a progressive throttle linkage I rigged up to make it less sensative. I can drive it like any NA car. Then if I stomp it the boost ramps up and it pulls like a train. The boost comes on slow enough I dont really have traction problems, yet. We will see when it is modified. On the track it runs well. If you keep it above 4000 rpm then you have almost instant boost like a blower car.

My setup is a 375 cid with a Hydraulic Crower Cleveland Turbo cam (older grind). I have a wild custom roller but got tired of changing the bronze gear. The turbos are Turbonetics with 0.96 O trim turbiines and H trim compressors. My headers are a mini header style.
