Thread: Guess my output and win $50.

Thanks jagy. I'm very happy with the way things turned out and thanks for being a part of it.

Thanks man. I hope to run into your VE-powered beast some day. I love me a black classic. =]

I can only hope others can learn from my example.

Thanks Se-Rican. I knew I had something special when the first failed pull gave me such promising results.

Yah, I don't make as much power as a lot of people, but I'm happy with it and I did it with less. Thanks man. Cheers!

Thanks buddy. You've got some very impressive builds under your belt. I can only hope to make the power you do some day. =]

I'll be posting up the turbo install pics ASAP. Don't you worry. As for the Dynojet numbers... I'd rather not speculate. =]

I never knew they made that little stock on a Mustang dyno. Odd. Thanks for the info.

The local SRT-4 and Cobalt SS guys weren't too impressed with my measly 11 psi if you know what I mean.
Apparently word around town is that I'm spraying now.

I am extremely happy. The power has finally come. A lot of things have fallen together with the car lately and it's terrific. I accomplished with the car what I set out to accomplish and now I'm looking forward to years and year of enjoying it. I can truly say I planned on finishing the car, and for the most part it's finished. I'm taking a big break from car work and such for a long while and won't be doing much if anything to the Sentra unless I have to. It is a good feeling.

You were so close man. You have no idea how hard it was to keep you in the dark that whole time.

Sorry dude. Maybe you can thumb wrestle him for it.

I'd like to think I can tune blood from a stone, but I can't. It took a lot more than good tuning to make this happen. You'll see.

I'll do what I can. I wouldn't expect any miracles though.

There's tons more just like that coming, I promise!

It certainly helps a lot. I'm pretty sure the attention to detail with the plumbing helped just as much.

Thank you kind sir.

While the stand-alone will take knock input from the stock sensor, and it is hooked up, right now I don't have it configured. I never really got the time. I know it's a really slack attitude.

For the past bunch of builds I've used my ears to listen for knock. Once you've heard what it sounds like inside the cabin on the road and outside the car at the dyno you can spot it easily. I don't want to get into an argument over this as that's happened before. It's not the best way, but it's what I've done. *shrug*

Funny thing about the EGTs. I have an EGT sensor and the stand-alone will log it. But, the ECU seems to be finding a grounding path through the EGT probe that likes to reset the ECU at idle and WOT. I had to unplug the EGT sensor to get the car to run properly after installing everything. I didn't log EGTs during the dyno sessions even though I wished I could. =(

No problem. Ask away.

That's now tuners are born. =]

I know what you mean. Cars seem to attract a lot of boneheads and wannabes.

Thanks TeKKiE!

Can't please them all. :o

Thanks Justasentra. I'll have those updates churning out soon enough. Let me know what you think once I've posted them.

Oh I knew it'd been done. I'm afraid of ruining the transmission and taxing the turbo well past it's limits, but give me 15 or 18 psi and I'll show you something you've never seen before from a T28. =]

Thanks for the congratulations Brent. Maybe we'll go blue in the face before some of them catch on. I hope not.

Ha! I see why you were asking me if I was sure, and that I was crazy

coach has decided to donate the money to the forum. He's such a nice guy. Time for a group hug!

Congrats,those are excellent #s for the amount of boost. Hurry and update your build thread, so we can see where the voodoo comes from.

Congrats Ben, very very impressive for a t28 at only 11psi on stock cams, i couldnt imagine with s4's although it would change everything with your tune cuz im sure your right at the max on everything to make that kind of power.

Congrats again very very impressive work but again what could have i expected.

Caravan down to SC for tuning?

I had 303, then made the edit to 307 before you but me on the first post

Crime doesn't pay I guess. =[

Like I said, tuning I think is half of it. The components that went into it are the other half. Just wait until you see the pipes on this thing.

It wouldn't be the first time people have traveled to tune with Dan and I.

^Wow.



^STANDALONE FTW.




^Guess not
