Re: Turbo VP V6 wagon.
looks nice as, what can you tell me about the engine tune? iv had no end to problems running on 6psi with a gt35/40 and with my new motor last thign i want to go doing is break it, a ruff tune or something would be great to just even run it in on, compared to what its got on it now

Re: Turbo VP V6 wagon.
what tune you running now cracker the stock base 2bar$5D off jc's it normally goes ok straight as it is for a start.just make sure you have a 2bar not 1 or 3 as that doesnt help things at all i just cleared up issues with one guy who got sold a 3bar instead of a 2 and it hit the wall at 3-5psi and would die out if you kept the gas on new 2bar and its going hard as
If Its Got Gas Or Ass Count Me In.if it cant be fixed with a hammer you have an electrical problem

Re: Turbo VP V6 wagon.
Its been over 2 years since I've updated this. Well I still have the car, I've gone back to auto to try and get more consistant times. It have a 3k dominator stall transgo Shift kit,Corvette servo and bigger boost valve. Its running on kalmaker sp3 and at the moment I'm working on getting the boost controlled by the ecu. Well its working just need to get it setup a bit better. Before converting to auto I ran a 13.04 @ 109mph.

Re: Turbo VP V6 wagon.
holy massive picture man, ive shrunk it a bit for you and to make it easier for others to view.
nice manifold, it reminds me of the one my mate just made for a turbo buick v6 escort project except weve got twin turbos and the throttles are mounted almost like yours but one points the other way to get a symetrical look.

Re: Turbo VP V6 wagon.
Went drag racing on Friday night. Finally got her into the 12s.
I did 4 runs at 12.7 and one was a 12.8.
Happy as with it.
