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. -------------------- |

Are you using a factory/un-upgraded CT-26? If so, the stockers blow hot air after 15-16 psi. With that being said, it will be pointless running 18-20 psi, you'll actually be losing power because that boost isn't efficient for the turbo.

I suggest you stick to forwarding spam emails to collect on Microsoft's offer to pay big dollars from their internal study. -------------------- QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback] i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this. |
