Hey guys im new to GNs. Ive loved them for years. I just switched over from drag racing diesels so gas motors are new to me (keep that in mind when i ask questions)
My car; 87 GN. Fresh built motor to stock specs with mild cam (dont know specs, bought at auction). 60lbs injectors with TT5.7 Chip. Fuel reg. Looks like the fuel pump is hot wired. Turbonectics T60 Series with a garret .89 AR comp wheel looks like a 60 or 62. Down pipe with exhaust. 40 mm wastegate on DP Front monted intercooler with flexlite dual fans. Trans has shift kit and upgraded stock convertor. Rear end has girdle, trailing arms, air bags and racing shocks. Stock tires/wheels
So my questions are;
1. The car doesnt feel that fast for the mods it has. (Could be because im used to the 1400lb of tq my diesel had)
2. Takes forever and a day to spool, 2nd gear it chirps the tires and the turbo is lit
3. Seems to vapor lock alot (230 degrees)
4. Very rough idle likes to stall
5. What are my next steps to make the car faster for street/strip
Thanks in advance and glad to be part of this forum.
