It's been a while, but it's time to make some changes to the setup of our swapped car. Remember that with a SMT6 piggyback and some other work, the stock CT26 made 249 HP and about 260 TQ to the wheels in Summer of 06. Over the winter I noticed that the CT26 will actually put out 18-20 PSI and HOLD IT TO REDLINE with good enough air.
So here's what I'm thinking (and it will all happen relatively soon): AEM EMS for complete tunability w/GM IAT and 3 Bar MAP (AEM or GM). Water/Alky Injection full time, boost referenced and tuned accordingly. AFM Delete in favor of a better intake tract. I figure by cooling the intake charge via the Methanol, the boost should hold on a little longer. I'm curious to see how much farther I can push the Ct26.......... There's a dyno shop here in IL about 15 minutes from me that is reasonably priced that I will be frequenting. Thoughts? I'm sticking with the stock injectors for now as the meth injection will be partially like an added fuel also as well as a cooling tool. -------------------- |

I'm with Art on the CT20b now that I know it's a simple bolt-on (except Dr. Tweak did some kind of wastegate bracket that I don't know if it'll work on a 20b) instead of new manifold and everything. We'll see though, as my primary goal right now is to get the AEM in and on with a water/alky injection put on there.
I apologize to everyone about the misleading nature of my first posts. The AEM is coming as an intended stepping stone for future mods (motor, head work, cams, turbo) since I haven't said that before. Oh yeah......my KS isn't blown. I found a tear in a wire from the GM KS conversion. Don't know how it got there, but all is well now. This post has been edited by Fastbird: May 16, 2007 - 6:48 PM -------------------- |
