  1. This might not be the right place for this but...... Can anyone help me find the section about finding the correct ignition timing be on a 1955 Bel Air Chevrolet with a 327 cubic inch engine and a 4 barrel carburetor?

     

    That's a bullshit question.

  2. ^^^ I tried it & did work. Send it back & they checked it out, it fine. Reinstalled it again & still didn't work. Thru it in a box of used parts & been running my DeatschWerks Fuel Pump - DW65c at 100% duty cycle for over a year/40K miles, with no issues.

     

    Maybe you have better luck.

     

    Thanks for responding. What exactly didn't work? Supposedly, it regulates pump duty based on necessity. And would you recommend I just drop the 450 in as is and run that?

  3. I've skimmed through this thread and find it fascinating. Currently running a AVO 245lph fuel pump on E85. 50# turbo at 24psi is leaning me out with 1100cc injectors. My IDC gets up to 111%. My upgrade I have purchased is move to a Walbro 450 along with a Fuelpro pump controller. Check it out HERE

     

    Anybody here run one of those?

     

    First I'm going to install the pump controller and see if just that makes a difference. Next, I'll drop the pump in. I will report back my findings.

  4. I almost wish I wasn't self-tuned so I could work with you and take advantage of these amazing deals. Following these threads trying to pick up on some scraps of info, it's obvious you are not only knowledgeable, but quick and attentive to your customers. You'd be my first choice for an etune. Keep up the good work.
  5. not true. title should really be Turbo Upgrade and/or Dyno Tuned thread. always good to see different dyno tunes for various, even stage 1/2 setups

     

    While I don't disagree, the original post does not mention anything about posting stock turbo numbers.

     

    On the suggestion of several members, and to help our non-searching brothers, welcome to a hopefully condensed Turbo Upgrade Thread.

     

    Please Post the following:

     

    Year and Transmission

    Turbo (Please include details such as exhaust housing size, etc)

    Supporting Performance Mods

     

    Please include dyno charts and/or timeslips if you have them.

     

    *EDIT* Please keep this ON TOPIC. OT will be deleted and removed.

     

    Perhaps there should be a stock turbo dyno tuned thread however even this thread is redundant since there is now a whole section dedicated to performance and dyno numbers.

     

    Rather than argue since I think you're an okay guy, I'll just post my road dyno tuned results in case folks haven't been following along in my other thread.

     

    2005 LGT

    Stock 5MT

    AVO 450 BB turbo

    E85 self tuned with Cobb AP

    I need to upgrade my intake and fuel pump since those are both maxed as they currently sit, but I think this has 450whp in it. Does the bottom end and transmission have the durability, though? That's the question.

  6. Your APv1 will not block romraider from reading data reported in your ECU. Furthermore, if you have an APv1, you can just use that cable to datalog, you just need to purchase a serial to usb adapter and run the proper driver for your OS. Nevertheless, if you've already got the Vag-com cable, make sure that romraider is reading to the correct COM port on your laptop.
  7. I forgot I made that stupid west african scammer post. :lol: Yeah, that should have been deleted. What's funny is that late in the thread, just like shadowimg, I made a serious post with a valid inquiry and that got deleted.

     

    Nevertheless, new vendors with new products dodging certain questions justifies a precautionary consumer.

  8. Yeah, you guys are a bunch of gangstas, yo. :rolleyes:

     

    I agree with this. You have his address, so reach out to the Municipal Police Dept and file the report. Would give them something to work, especially if everyone who got scammed filed a report. On aggregate, could result in felony theft.

     

    This is where you should turn your focus.

  9. They blocked it at my office.

     

    Apparently the IT department doesn't have a sense of humor...

     

    ^^ Work at a Wal-mart office? :lol:

     

    I've got to play this next time I'm at walmart!

     

    So which box do you get to mark yourself off with? :confused::p

  10. Well.....I spent my $2.00 and gave it a shot, but a catted DP and Perrin mid and y pipes with stock mufflers and hogzaust just doesn't do it for me. I got too addicted to the Prodrives that I'd rather travel through winter with no noise at all. I think this mod is best served on a completely stock exhaust. It was a fun experiment but time to quiet it down.
  11. My Prodrive mufflers with Perrin mids, Invidia catted DP. First is revs, second is a driveby in the snow with high revs. When the roads clear, look for higher speed drivebys. I'll post them here.

  12. How do you know? I'm curious

     

    Okay, I'll tell you.

     

    My wife works for an insurance company as a temp at times and she overheard an adjuster on the phone with someone who had just been rear-ended. The person on the other end was complaining that their exhaust was compromised. He was talking loud enough for my wife to hear his gripe; "I just hogzausted my car, too!" :lol:

     

    The adjuster later asked my wife what hogzaust was and she knew! :lol: What are the chances? :eek:

     

    I figured anybody who hogzausts their car is a member and is lurking here somewhere since its pretty exclusive to our cars (so far). ;)
