Hey Tom J, got my new turbo.

[boostingbuick]

Ok Tom, my new turbo has arrived from Turbonectics. Its a 72mm bb s-trim. So I guess we will see how far a 4.1 go before broke. I will post some pics later.

 

[tom j]

Is this a competition to see who breaks first or who goes the fastest

 

[boostingbuick]

I have more weight than you, so I guess its a race to see who breaks first. I can't wait to see what it will do. It looks so tiny though. So where did you mount that waste gate?

 

[tom j]

Your Heads and cam combo are far better than mine so I guess were even there. I think I'm going mount it on the crossover so I don't have cut into the headers or my dp if return into the exhaust

 

[boostingbuick]

True, but I have a/c and will not be able to get a big DP to fit past the box and headers.

 

[tom j]

Just put a fender dump in and shut the ac off

 

[boostingbuick]

Oh come on, its a street car. I need to keep my icecream cone from dripping when I cruising around.

I see you are having trouble selling your turbo as so am I.
I guess people just don't want to go fast 128mph with out really turning up the wick

 

[boostingbuick]

Oh well. I can just sit on it for the price that I am giving it away at. Most people don't realize how fast 128 is on 93. I know that turbo will go 9's on some good gas. I took a friend for a ride and stood on it, he told me he had tunnel vision. Best response I ever got, besides HOLY S---!!!!

I see you guys are running 4.1s, are they production blocks, and are they more powerful than the 3.8?

 

[boostingbuick]

Hey Tom, when are we going to get our own section?


1chance. Yes they are production units and have been the topic of contraversity for years. I have a 109 block in the corner they I hope to never use. So far me and Tom have gone in the tens with no issue. So if your plans are to stay in the mid to high tens then this is the way to go. So much lower end and can spool big turbo's with little lag.

Hey Tom, when are we going to get our own section?


What would be the title?

I would like to get my hands on this block

4.1 section of coarse!


You aint kidding about that block. I should of just told him I would trade a 109 block so he can put the correct c.i. engine in it. Some people just get lucky. Funny, that's what they keep telling us.
