you cant bore over or stroke the 4.0s there already maxed pretty much
you can just forged it, heads and cams and get more boost or nitrous

I had heard there was a stroker from Morana Racing, but OK.

what stroker?
they have a supposed 4.4 for the 3.8s not the sohc 4.0s

[itschristorres8]

nvm i just saw the stroker kit
i'd have to look more into it, i was told the block couldnot be bored over anymroe
also thats probably something that should be discussed in a different thread

[Averlus]

It is. I wasn't really intending to have my query last for more than two posts. This is Brandon's thread.

[itschristorres8]

ah so yesterday obdnanr came. we put the NEW maf unit he got for it. then we hooked up his fpdm
and WOW was that a pain in the ass. after finally thinking we had it all hooked up we didnt. pumps wouldnt turn on, no fuel pressure and car wouldnt start. so finally at oh idk about 4am in the morning i spliced one of the wires that i looked over. had brandon start that car and she fired up. i just had to adjust the tune.

he left and we got done at 5am in the morning! yes im not kidding
he made it to vmp only to see problems
1 fuel pump was working
that was fixed
thing was only going to 9psi
then idk what happend with that
then they had belt issues at 4500 rpms the belt was flying off the tensioner

so i guess they couldnt go to far after that. last pull was 10psi at 4500 rpms
so theres still plenty pull to finish up like about 1500rpms!
and 8psi missing

surprisingly his torque his higher then his hp numbers by about 30rwhp

i wont say the numbers i'll let him do the honors
there decent/nice for the situation 10psi 4500rpms...=/ sucks not sure whats his plans from here on out

So what did the 9psi 4500 graph look like?

[itschristorres8]

idk i've yet to see the graph
and i just remembered he'll probably not be on til july 10th
his numbers were/are
343rwhp and 373 rwtq at 4500 rpms with 9-10psi

base 5500rpms he made 280rwhp last time with 9psi
gained 63 OBVIOUS rwhp at just 4500 rpms. centri blowers make more power through out higher rpms just like a turbo prettymuch. so theres still a lot left in it. sucks we wont know when it'll happen though

[plove71387]

nice, it does suck to have them problems.

Hmm....

343/373 @ 10psi up to 4500rpms...
Could be interesting with a full 6k pull.

Hey chris get on aim. Anyway I forget what pumps is he using again, and what pulley did he go in to vmp with?

[itschristorres8]

twin gt40s dual fpdm(pita)
we were going to put the 3in pulley but we were way to tired to run into any other problems possibly plus it was 430am

[94v6blkndred]

sucks with the problems but those are still good numbers! cant wait to see a full pull

[itschristorres8]

yeah, i have no idea really what it would make on 10psi full pull he said he compared it to a 15psi P1 4.2L motor the justin tuned
if so that car made 409rwhp!!
i dont know if it would hit 409rwhp on just 10psi but if so then shit who ever built that motor did a good job =P

lol no then i'd assume 409rwhp - est 240rwhp(motor)= 169rwhp/10psi= about 17rwhp per psi which is insane on a s/c
higher boost means higher temps so assume 15rwhpx8psi=120rwhp+409=529rwhp estimated
if he makes and his blower is identical as Justin says to the other guys with less boost!

this is per estimate numbers. he might make 409rwhp at 6000rpms but with 11-12psi
which would still net damm close to 500rwhp or 500rwhp+

once again this is just estimated comparing

it would be fuckin sweet if all his problems got fixed and he made exactly 529rwhp like i said though lol

[poindexter18]

Hold on a sec I gotta get my jaw off the ground.

LoL.

With all the problems those numbers are still impressive for a 4.2 at only 4500.

Now throw a turbo in there and twin charge the bitch! MWAHAHAHA.

j/k

And make less power....!

[Averlus]

Less power from a turbo? How is that possible?

[poindexter18]

It was a joke, ssstang. Rofl.

=P

[obdnanr]

video maybe tonight, fuck super chargers, fuck them, fuck dual fpdm, fuck this god damn monsoon bullshit that just about killed me a few minutes ago on i 20, couldnt see a fucking foot in front of me.

and most of all fuck the stupid ass tensioner that the belt just flys the fuck off of

but a big thanks to justin and chris

YouTube - fuck superchargers

YouTube - fuck superchargers

[itschristorres8]

lmao
problems are bound to happen with the belt on a s/c
especially hitting 18psi or attempting it
8rib that hoe
get a tensioner with grooves then call re-tune

[obdnanr]

you see how that fucking peice of shit just FLYS the fuck off?! WTF PROCHARGER WHAT THE FUCK!?


yeaaah, ill just drive from washington state to go visit justin again
