My LSx Coupe Build

[VaderTT]

What map sensor did you get? and I didn't read back, but are you tuning with hptuners?
What is the map sensor setup you would need? I'm currently compiling parts for my turbo lsx truck build, just a little confused as to which route I want to take on tuning.
Map tune and be done or blow through maf and upgrade later if I want to go faster.

I had that same brand wastegate and sold it, I guess I'll be buying another one .

ya, i bought 2 of the emusa 38mm w/g's, probably going to buy one of his 50mm bov's too since people seem to like them. the wastegates look like they are made very nice (and the packaging is real nice).

He would have flipped, he loves to ride in my car and says it's a race car, lol, yours really is. You looked busy tuning it or something and I didn't want to bother you, next time I'll say hi.

never too busy! my laptop decided to go on the fritz that night so i was trying to get all the tweaks done before it died (not that it mattered since the car seemed to be incapable of going any faster). wish i could have gotten a run in after the temps really started dropping, last run i made was around 8:30, not sure when they shut down for the night but another 10 degrees cooler might have gotten me that 6.9x...arghh.. oh well, it's been a good run, car now has over 1600 miles on it since may and countless runs (i found like 10 slips under my seat the other day and thats just what has fallen under there!) and she has driven me to/from the track every time. can't wait to get this turbo setup up and running for next season, now that i've got all of the bugs worked out of her seems only natural to add some more!

that is awesome, should have come by and i'd have taken him for a ride around the pits or something!

How did the car show go?

the car show was...ehhh, it was okay, it's a small church car show so nothing to write home about, nobody seemed to know what an lsx was so i spent a lot of time having to explain what is special about the car, kinda kills any novelty! it was for a good cause and mysticcobrakiller came out so we shot the breeze for most of the time. his car is super clean.

Should be awesome man, looking forward to seeing you at the track. We had our 5 year old with us at the track on Sat and he recognized your car from the last cruise and when we talked to you, he was rooting for you!

Another idea is you can run the turbo straight to the intake without an
intercooler if you run e85

Nice runs at the cruise!
How did the car show go?

decided to just run meth and pump gas...don't live close enough to an e85 pump and don't want to mess with storing it and having to find it when i'm out and about.

were you at the cruise? i know your car is under the knife but didn't know if you came out with the hpp guys or not. should have came by and said hi if you were around.

looks good in the vids can't wait to see what it will do with some boost

ya, need some boost and an anti roll bar! might have got some air under the fronts if it weren't for the terrible roll to the passenger side! car did 1.5 60's every run. matter of fact the car had pretty much identical runs every pass, same 60', et, mph, etc. i thought it was strange cause the first pass out showed to be very rich (like 11.8:1) so i took a bunch of fuel out, next run was better but still about 6-8% rich, took more fuel out and got it pretty much dead on @ 12.8:1, never picked up any et or mph though. you'd think leaning it out a full point would have been worth something!
