Ronnie have you ever had you tune tweaked ?
IIRC Travis put down that with a stock turbo. Don't get me wrong that's some good number but I think you can get a little more out of it.

 

well i dynoed on a hot day and dyno had no cooling fan and no i havent had the tunes tweaked gotta email jody about that i like the tuned as i can hold 40 psi wot with 1250 degrees

 

also on that same day hooked to a sled for the first time and pulled 243 foot got 11th outta 42

 

I think you could knock on the door of 400hp

 

Hey Ronnie! Missed you at RRE, what happened?

 

Thanks for sharing those numbers Ronnie. That kinda verifies where I thought I was at for hp and torque with mine as its pretty much the same as yours. I figured I was close to 400 and 750, I'd like to get on a dyno someday too. Have you put any head studs in yours?

 

Iv definitely looked into head studs. Swamps has a set of studs that's supposedly the best out there and theyre the same price as ARP. Pushrods and springs shouldn't be a huge hole in my pocket either so Ill look into it. All this will definitly keep with my "reliability" theme.

 

Push rods are around 120 bucks. Springs are around 100

 

That's chump change compared to a $2600 rebuild kit, $1500 chip and injectors, and $1200 turbo lol

 

How about bellowed up-pipes? Are they worth the trouble?

 

The S366 kit has bellowed uppipes in it if you go that way.

 

Might as well go s366 cause by the time you'd buy a d66 and bellowed uppipes you could buy the s366 kit and have a few bucks left for beer

 

Or in my case, Dr Pepper lol

 

Hey guys, I have 2 near identical threads going on here so I started a build thread! We can continue this conversation over there. And I want to send a huge thanks to everyone who has responded!
