TIII/GLHS Update #2

[glhs441]

After the new T3/T4 57 trim/stageIII blew up,we pieced a stock turbo togather from 3 junk turbos we had around the garage.
Went to the track last night and ran 12.559@110.39,8.10@86.63 1/8th,
1.797-60' also ran a best 60' of 1.724.
All this with a stock turbo and 15-16 lbs boost,turbo would spike to 20 and settle in at 15-16 lbs.

Great runs!!! What happened with the hybrid turbo? Are you going to put another hybrid on the car? If you do I smell 11's fairly easily!!!

I think with a few tweeks I can get it to run 11s with the stock turbo,(it is a TI/TII turbo which has a smaller compressor wheel than the TIII turbo).

Here is the plan for the next trip to the track:

Take my weed sprayer with ice water to cool the intercooler between rounds.

Put the fan on a toggle switch for cooling between rounds.

Install extra injector set to come on at 16psi.

3 lbs moore boost.

Install puke can,blows a little oil out the pcv at high rpm.

.63 A/R turbine housing if I can find one for a ford.

How cool would it be to run in the 11s with a basicly stock TIII with a big intercooler and no NOS.

That would be awesome, but tough to do. The puny compressor wheel will only move so much air and that's it. And with the engine really wanting alot more air than the turbo can provide in the higher rpm's, efficiency takes a nose dive as boost levels are increased. That turbo will have alot easier time making high torque in the midrange, than horsepower in the upper R's.

Thats why I was shifting it at 6200-6500.
