1988 Daytona Shelby 11 sec full body build thread * picture heavy *

[2POINT5TURBO]

Should have gone a little longer and walked around to the driver side and showed the vac @ idle. What's your vac, like 17-18"? I know the Charger is 16", but the 2.5's are going to produce a little more.

On a cold day like this morning for instance, starting the car letting it come to operating temp for 7 min I had about 15 vac. but once driving it will hover between 17-19 vac. I am so impressed with this motor, I'll take another video today after I put the power steering belt on.

doing some very mild tuning on the car and seeing that 21 psi, knowing that the car cant be street driven on that amount of boost is just insane. Literally you need drag radials to have any sort of traction, thanks for helping me tune the car and giving me amazing pointers yesterday!. I swear sometimes I have to have you there to slow me down and bring me back to reality when it comes to the car and I know this car is going to blow people's minds I hope everyone is a patient as I have come to be with seeing the results.


PS. Shadow is a human Data logger!

Is it going to have an intercooled crank case breather system like on the Pressure Ratio Kings car??

Thanks
Randy

Anymore info on this setup by chance?

Same as the Charger, but running one 3/4" ID hose instead of the hose stepping larger like the Charger does to the breather box. If you look closely at Nick's video you can see the two fittings on the front of the V/C and the hose going to the catch-can.

Simple as that, just vented to atmosphere.

1st:


2nd, love how you can hear the lightweight recipricating weight going on in just the way the motor sounds.

Anther video with the vac gauge



a few 15 psi short pulls half throttle I can't go over 5,500 rpm the tires just let loose and that F4 cam just kicks in. Never thought I would see this 2.5 make power into the 6,000's !!

Decided to take the car to the speed way for a lap did a few short third gear pulls enjoy.

Nice! Love how fast the boost wants to go to 20

As as far as I know this is right off the waste gate so this is the laziest possible boost available, hopefully the avcr boost controller will make a world of difference in 1rst and 2cond gear as there is no traction at all lol

It's Hilarious that the stock boost gauge is still in there! Just for the passengers and audience to gawk at! lol

You are correct. the turbo is seeing Full boost signal to the W/G right now, so this is the laziest lowest boost possible. Through the 4" dump full spool 20+psi is about 4000rpm running Fat to keep it safe till we dial in the tune.

Although Nick is keeping it to 15psi on pump 91 because we were seeing some knock @ 21psi. That's why the part throttle PUZZY footing around..............Right Nick?!
