I'm still up in the air about if I still want to dish out the money to turbocharge this car, and seeing how it really can't put it down I'm wanting to save my money and build a N/A 3L.
I've looked at the heavy hitters in this category and they seem to be DemonSVT, timeless420, and David Z who isn't around anymore. David had the benefit of getting ahold of one of the SVT touring car's heads and cams and was putting down almost 250whp. I'm ruling him out since he "cheated." Timeless420 was making 237 but he also had 11.5:1 compression. Is there any way you can put down 250whp w/ out custom cams or high compression pistons?
Demon, I'm not even going to bother asking what you're making but do you got any tips or can you assure me it's possible?
This is the plan:
-01+ 3L block, knife-edged crank, lightened flywheel, fully balanced assembly, rev to 7500RPM
-Tumble port heads; Clean-up work, rounded bowls, port even w/ valve seat, angled roof, worked (more than primary) secondary port for max high RPM power, radius injector towards secondary port, trim valve guides. Chamber work; unshrouded valves (how much on that?), cleanup and polish. Exhaust port; cleanup and polish, roof work, slightly angled floor, port even w/ valve seat.
-SVT camshafts
-EH manifold; widened inlet mouth, 34.5mm primary, 37mm secondary
-LIM; primary inlet 34.5, secondary 37mm w/ custom butterfly
-65mm TB
-Stock MAF
-24lb injectors (widespray pattern)
-custom accordian tube
-GMK CF SRI w/ heat shield, cold air supply form hood duct and front fascia
-K&N filter
-MSDS headers port matched and wrapped
-custom 2" SS y-pipe, wrapped
-2.5" highflow cat w/ 2.5" pipe back to a 2" split w/ strait through mufflers
-XCAL2 for tuning, a hell of alot of tuning
-Magnacore competition wires
-Plugs(need recommendation)
-large guage grounds and batterleads
-UD pullies
Thats all I can think of right now.
Can I get my goal or close? If need be or I could get more power I was going to do pistons but at like 11:1 or 10.8:1 because I'm running on 93 octane and I think you can make more power on that by being able to pull more timing where the higher compression would hold you back. I also have a gas station that has E10 available that would be a boost in octane but not many have that available yet.
