Hey guys I have just purchased a 2 1/4 crossover, and 2.5 uppipe, billet adj fuel regulator fro ATR. I currently have a 2.5 downpipe 3inch single shot ATR exhaust, 8mm spiral core wires CR43TS plugs, Type F fluid and filter on the tranny, and heavy duty springs 5inch tach, boost gauge, fuel air gauge.

Now the questions

How much boost should these stock turbos push out mine only reads 10psi

What other mods do I need to get this thing haulin. besides 307 fuel pump and 36 injectors
 
I would get an adjustable wastegate so you can dail in as much boost as you want. Also an aftermarket chip and knock gauge. My turbo can handle about 16-17psi of boost without knock on pump gas. With race gas maybe more. I can't wait until they incorporate the Garrett ball bearing turbo for my setup.:) Only another 30 to 60 days.:D
 
thanks turbojitsu, where did you get all of your frame braces and body mounts thanks
 
I have run as high as 23 psi of boost on 110 octane. I was beating the stock 87's that day at the track.
 
I got all the braces and missing body bushings from Postons but Kirbans sells them and if I'm correct I think HRparts&Stuff sells them but I'm sure there are other places as well.

23psi on 110 octane thats what I need.:D There are a few places around here that sell 104 I wonder what boost I can get on that?
 
Check with the local stock car racers. They would know where you can get your hands on some high octane fuel. I get mine from a oil dealer. And its only 3.65 a gallon.
 
3.65 a gallon:eek: maybe its better I can't get my hands on it because I'd be broke;)

Matto you should also do work on the suspension like box the lower control arms and put in airbags they make a world of diffrence in stopping wheel hop.
 
thanks

I will take all of your adive into consideration, I just purchased an adj wastegate and cannot wait to turn it up, I am a welder so I will box my control arms and order some air bags as well. Im going to order my bushings and braces from kirban so thanks for the tips Matt
 
Thats cheap dude, I have seen it sell for 5.00 and more at the track.
But I think the next slick thing is going to propane injection. Very cheap and available anywhere. I sold my alky injection before no one wants one when they find out how well propane works.
