i cant remember what turbos you'll be running?

with the 9:1 pistons, the lower compression should make the tuning a bit easier than on 10:1 pistons.

J-Groove · 10-15-2006, 09:14 PM

I;m just using the stock 9b TD04 turbos. The power out of them with the lack of traction with FWD should be good. At least for a while.

Engine managment will be a 1st gen TT ECU, electronics are; defi boost and EGT, greddy EBC, AEM wideband, and will borrow my friends OBD1 datalogger for tuning after the engine is broken in.

For fuel using stock TT injectors with new o rings and bushings teamed with a walbro fuel pump.

How are you liking the SC..what am I saying. How could you not like it.

I've been trying to talk my Dad into supercharging his '01 Z06. Everytime I get him talked into it I need to head back home, I can never get him to buy it while I'm visiting. haha

Unfortunetly no, it was one thing to take a project that is maybe 3 days long and make a video, it is a whole other to turn this all into a video.

The original video would have turned a 3 day TT conversion project into something around a month, I just can't do it and expect to finish my car this year while taking 20 credits this semester.
