getting her turbo ready

1LOUDGT · September 27th, 2011, 07:28 AM

You need to find a tuner who is up to date with SCT. Try getting in touch with SCT they are in Lake Mary FL. They most likely will be able to direct you to a tuner in your area.

U will need atleast 42lb injectors
U should buy the aeromotive intank 340lph pump
Quarter horse with binary editor for ur management and tuning
Aeromotive adjustable fuel pressure regulator
Leave the stock cam im making plenty of power and rediculous amounts of torque with the stock cam
1 or 2 stages colder spark plugs

EscortSportage · September 27th, 2011, 09:13 AM

O u will need an innovate motorsports wideband, a boost guage
Which ever maf u choose (hopefully a blow through) matched to the injectors
A nice clutch with ample bite
Wider,sticker tires

my god this quarterhorse thing looks awesome. this may sound dumb, but can i use this in place of a dyno tune? like self tuning? whats involved?

fogged306 · September 28th, 2011, 07:29 AM

Yes you can, it's what I tune my car with. Just don't think it'll be cake to tune your car with and expect a lot of learning, and you'll love it. Check out EECTuning.org

VM0824 · September 28th, 2011, 07:32 AM

I had actually found that site last night it has ALOT of info on it. I'm just wondering how much its gonna be for these wide band sensors. Do they just replace my current o2 sensors?

EscortSportage · September 30th, 2011, 07:57 PM

I love qh! And be is 80 bucks to license. Its awesome

HMERacing · September 30th, 2011, 09:10 PM

May be worth it to change valve springs if you are running stock heads.

VM0824 · September 30th, 2011, 09:13 PM

what would be benefits of this? pros cons. what pressure springs? im totally ignorant on the subject other than you need stronger springs to stop valve float at crazy rpms

EscortSportage · September 30th, 2011, 10:51 PM

The wideband does not replace ur current o2 sensors, im running the two that go into the ecu and then the wideband under neath the car

fogged306 · October 1st, 2011, 10:45 AM

I paid 150 for my LC-1 wideband. Like ^ said, you add it to the system and do not touch your stock o2's. There's a few ways of doing it but if you don't have EGR hooked up anymore, you can actually turn that wire into an input on the QH and run your wideband to it. You just have to set up the wideband correctly enable the EGR as an AFR function in the QH and you will have wideband readings on your datalog screen.

VM0824 · October 1st, 2011, 12:04 PM

Ok so do I need to add a new o2 bung just for the sensor? I don't know where to put it? or which bank?

fogged306 · October 1st, 2011, 03:11 PM

Doesn't matter the bank, and yes you need to weld in a new bung. The header collector is the ideal spot. Supposed to keep it parallel with the ground like your stock o2's are. So opposite a stock one in the same pipe is ideal. I have mine just past my collector in one of my mid-pipes and it works ok, but I'll be changing that to the collector in the near future to guarantee it's in the most accurate spot I can get it.

VM0824 · October 1st, 2011, 03:21 PM

ok 1 more question. when i put the turbo kit in, where do i put the 2 stock o2 sensors?, before the turbo where theres 2 different pipes? or after the turbo with only 1 pipe?

EscortSportage · October 1st, 2011, 09:27 PM

2 factory o2 will be about a foot after the turbo, the wideband is gonna be under the car

VM0824 · October 2nd, 2011, 01:32 PM

under the car?

EscortSportage · October 2nd, 2011, 05:21 PM

Omg ok ur turbo sits behind the passenger headlight, about one foot behind the turbo on ur down piPe, right before the firewall is going to be your two factory o2 sensors that talk to the ecu.

Then ur down pipe bends down towards the ground and to the back, this is where ur gonna put ur wideband under the car in the downpipe
