TDC Tuning Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 well autos are hard here because its not an exact match on the tach the #'s look all weird for reference a TMIC/up/dp/cbe/prodrive sol tune here makes like 240 whp and after the Tq converter spike 270ish 280 tq (which is kinda off too) Boons car on pump gas made 32o ftlbs and 290 whp (his Tq converter flash dosent afect his as much down low) on race gas mixed in to 93 im guessin 97 98 octane 345 ftlbs and 305 whp mind you my dyno reads about 10% lower than average as well and these autos load up real weird as well like the stall @5K that just loads the shit out of the car all in all he pulls 4.86+ V on his maf hits 24 psi tapering to 22 on racegas and the car hauls funkin azz @ least its fixed and running right, i wont point fingers as to why it was messed up in the first place but it wasnt a tune or anything I installed for reference a MT FMIC 20G made 310 whp here 22psi taper 19 with a stock cat back same car made 340 on a dynojet 12 hours later another MT FMIC 20G lgt on STOCK fuel made 290ish TBE exhaust another MT TMIC 18G made 290 whp w stock catback and just a pump another MT FMIC 18G made 320 whp TBE pump and injectors typical stage 2 car makes like 240-250, headers and tmic - 260ish (all stock CBE) my car made 270 headers dp tgv tmic and inlet hose itsnot about apeak # as we all know ill post a chart of boon over stage 2 its pretty impressive wow thats alot of typing TDC Tunings LGT Forum Cobb, Perrin, APS, Invidia, Megan racing and MORE!!

wukindada Posted July 22, 2006 Author Share Posted July 22, 2006 Jon...... I have a opportunity to get a GT3076RLE that has less than 1k on it for a VERY good price. I know for a fact the turbo has never seen over 15psi. Will it fit my setup? Biggest question is......will it add much over what I already have? Toyota 6EATS .........SUCK!!!!!!

KTM 525 Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 Not sure if it can be found on the LGT but on the Camaro finding and grounding the trq converter lockup wire works wonders. I had the pleasure of being friends with a GM mechanic he did the research and found wich wire off the ECU bridal controlled the lockup function. While on the dyno a simple grounding strap would force the ECU to lock the converter up at will. I have little doubt the capability to do this on the LGT would end the woes you guys are having.

SnowMan451 Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 I'm glad to hear it was something simple like the coilpacks and I agree +4.86V is def moving some air. Heres to the ruturn trip being just as uneventful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
