Thread: The Turbo DE+T Build Continues

Thanks, that grill is still primered and has not yet been painted. I have to paint one of the fenders and will hit the outside of the grill with the Aztec and keep the inside black and then clear it.

Hey that is exactly the kind of project I want my car to be. How did you feel it fixing the wires and changing the spark plugs gap? If you go to the Dyno I really would like to know the results.

Congratz BTW... Nice Looking Bay

The bay will get some cleaning, reorganizing and painting the IC piping. There was noticable difference in the plug wires as I must of been just running off of 2 cylinders and I felt it missing when it spooled up and smelled tons of fuel.

I did a leak down test and found 2 leaks. One at my couple and one vacuum line by the throttle body elbow that I forgot about. Fixed those and now my idle is steady at 800 rpm.

I will be putting in my manual boost controller and turn up the boost a bit and check my a/f and then hit the dyno for some real tuning and a/f mapping.

Nice! Keep it that way!

in for updates

The update- I have tuned the car to my best ability using the wideband. I will have to hit a dyno to get my real readings for a better tune. I am boosting at 14 psi now and will keep it here for a bit. Car pulls real hard and I lose traction too quick. LSD might be in order for me down the road.

Wow! 14 psi! As far as I know that's a little too much for a DE+T.

I hope you hit the Dyno anytime soon to see the results

14psi is too much if u dont have the fuel to back it up... that level of boost is fine on a DE+T

You should move the throttle cable behind the engine. Cleans it up a little.
