My Turbo Build AKA T76Coupe -- Teksid, Billet 76, Lethal Return, Custom kit, E85
- Thread starter blown302stng
- Start date
Car has undergone some changes in the last month and a half
There is a chance I might have to sell the car come Spring and figured it would be easier to sell with low compression and a t56 back in it
Quick Update
Low compression shortblock(8.8:1)
Ported Cobra Heads and Comp Turbo Cams
Precision DBB Billet Wheel 76
ID 1000 Injectors/465 lph Pumps
T56 Magnum
Boost Leash Gear Based Boost Controller
Black Saleen Wheels
Took it to Kurgan a couple weeks ago and struggled getting boost controller to work...still made 815rwhp on 16psi took it to the track the next day and made a couple passes but struggled getting it to leave good...Still went 10.22@136 letting out at 1100' with a 1.69 60'
The car always has felt a lil laggy and even more so now with 3.31 gears, 28" tall and 2.66 first gear so afte"r researching I believe the crossover pipe is to large(3") so next step is to build a 2.25 crossover which should help out alot...Materials should be here next week and I will the thread updated

Selling it? Why?
the only possible reason I would have to sell is depending on how big of a down payment we have to make on a new house...
What did the noise in the motor end up being?
Front Main bearing was the only thing that should some wear
So couple small updates to the car....
To help with spool we rebuilt the crossover pipe, when we originally built the kit we didn't know any better and used 3" pipe. The car has always been a little laggy so we built a new one using 2 1/4" pipe. I also redid part of the downpipe to give me more tie rod end clearance.
Also recently sold the Saleen wheels and bought back my front 17" alumastars and bought a set of Champion Beadlock wheels for the rears...Hope to have the car back on the ground by the weekend to get some better pictures

Wow those are some sick looking wheels man. Can't wait to see some pics with those on the car.
Can't wait to see how they look installed!
Havent got a chance to get any good pictures of the new wheels but here is a few from the other night before it got dark
Those rears look mean as hell dude.
Thanks, I wanted something that no one else had done yet and I think they give a good balance of black and silver to match the fronts
Look great!!!
That looks pretty sick! Need more pics!
Still want more pics!
