that's F'in sweet dude! congrats on the successful swap. Now about that 5s... I'm definately in the market for one and I know yours would have been well cared for. Obviously someone else has dibs on the cams, and that's ok. All I'd really need is the block, head, oil pan, and possibly the headers that you had if you still had them PM me if you'd be willing to sell it to me.

just a quick update.
I installed some tworus brass shifter cable bushings, painted my intake pipe, and replaced the stock turbo to IC coupler with a silicone one. I also had a water bypass hose leak and just about pop on me, it's the hose directly from the main lower water line to the water neck (about 3-4 inches long and elbowed). The 185 hose was too small in diameter so I ended up getting a similar/stronger hose from an auto parts store. It sucked replacing it in but now it's back to 100% The solid shifter bushings are good and bad. The shifting is much more precise but feels a bit notchy. It reminded me of going from a stock shifter to a short shifter. Also getting into 5th and reverse isn't as easy as before. I'm still up in the air about keeping them or just putting brand new ones in (my old ones were worn). other than that, no real problems, just driving it and having fun with it. next week I'm gonna change the oil and plugs before the winter. -------------------- |

yea dustin, get rid of them, what i learned recently.......... Notchy gear shifts = blown tranny (e-153 lsd)(7thgen short shift)
I had the real TRD short shift on my old gt2 and that was great, but still notchy at high rpms.....2nd would notch, and 3rd just wouldn't go in sometimes and it would cost me a whole second in the 1/4 mile. |

went to the dyno today, I thought Jim was coming up here so we could all go but that didn't happen for some reason. Either way he went in Jersey and I went near me.
my results 19.04psi = 329.62hp & 288.64ft tq then I turned the boost up a bit and went to this 22.35psi = 335hp & 306.72ft tq and then with the motor a little warm from the runs I started to knock a bit and decided to shut it down 22.5psi = 330.12hp & 307.91ft tq FYI I never run my car above 17/18psi on the street, I turned up the boost on the dyno just to see what it can do. In a few weeks I will install WI so runing that much boost will be safer with no knock. Ba-Zing. -------------------- |

it looks like youre running out of fuel. art, he had the sniffer in the tailpipe, but had the cutout open, so disregard that a/f chart. great work d! ::edit:: dustin, i hosted the charts on 6gc, with RPM instead of speed, and with the a/f removed, just to avoid confusion. also a few notes about runs 14 and 18.. you can clearly see the car knock @ ~3600rpm, this is why running this much boost, on pump gas, without WI can get dangerous. especially with a ceramic turbine '20b. in run 18, you can see the factory ECU at work. the run is VERY choppy compared to the earlier runs, due to the stock ecu still recovering from the earlier knock event in run 14. run 18 is also a 4th gear run the earlier runs were in 3rd gear. with the boost log, you can also see how much better the wastegate holds on jims runs VS these, its quite inconsistant, where jims boost log is perfect all the way to redline. -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)

Great numbers Dustin, please send me the run files when you get a chance. I would like to pick through them. Thanks. You should make an adapter for your tip so you can block off the muffler so you can install the WB into the exhaust cutout, at keast this way you can log AF.
You can see the advantages of WI between my run and Dustins run. Dustin did not make any more power by throwing another 3psi, where mine contentiously made more power as I turned up the boost. I cant wait to go back to the dyno it was a great experience, and I wouldn't have changed ANYTHING about the way it went down. I got the car all setup the way I wanted, under my conditions, my time, met some great people, a VERY knowledgeable dyno operator/tuner and had a great time doing it. Dustin, If you have the will power to do it, it only took me a few hours total to add the helper spring and I am very pleased how it turned out. It helped me through out the entire Boost range. Even 16psi was dead flat, I highly recommended it. --------------------

thanks guys.
Yeah I was a little drunk last night and I've been fighting the flu but a night of drinking at Manny's made me feel much better The helper spring is a good idea if I plan on running 19+psi often but I'm not, I'm content with the way it is. There are a few things I should of done better like letting the car/IC cool down a bit more between runs or stepping the boost up little by little for a good comparison of power with psi. Overall I'm wicked happy with the results and I now know I should get WI asap to avoid knock. I know I could of made more than the 335 to the wheels but it was getting dangerous without WI. -------------------- |

That is pretty consistent results, proving what the STOCK GEN3 is capable of, and not some one time random fluke.
I hope more people will realize the real potential and power that the STOCK GEN3 actaully makes. Its simple, if you are starting fresh and want to swap. Dont bother with the GEN2, you will be highly disappointed. When for the same amount of money you can swap to a GEN3 and make GOBS more power. For those that dont know, and this is first post they read, heres a quick overview. A STOCK GEN2 with intake, exhaust, FCD, ~15psi and WI can make about 240whp. A STOCK GEN3 with intake, exhaust makes 320+whp @ ~18psi. GEN3 FTW You guys are putting 6GCs on the map! Nice workk. X10000000 Erik, I HOPE IT CONTINUES!!!!!!!!!!!! --------------------
