P-body 24v updates

[Reaper1]

The ones I have experience with are exactly those! Very nice parts indeed.

As for a rear sway bar...DEFINATLY!! That's one this I still have to do, but I WILL do it! After doing it the TD way last time with results that were good in some ways and bad in others, I think I'll do it the correct way this time. I KNOW it works and makes a huge difference though!

The stock panhard bars suck, almost every one I see is tweaked. The aftermarket one looks good, I might have to get one of those instead of boxing mine in.

[Reaper1]

I can honestly say that even with my hard driving(at times...not all the time) that I've really never had an issue with the stock panhard bar...and I've spun these cars out, done psudo rally with them, all kinds of crap! I can see where the stock one isn't that great, and I DO want to replace it, but I'm just sharing my personal experience(up to this point! LOL).

finally got to work on the car some. didnt have the room i needed or the hoist and jacks to really tear into the car tonight, but i at least got the motor mostly de-wired and the wires labeled. i should also be able to clean up the wire install when i put the motor back. i also pulled the #6 plug for curiosity's sake and it looked clean. Black, but clean. the car has barely been run at all since i shut it down at the track.

Not bad. Whats your plans? You gonna drop the pan and inspect or are you goingnto tear it down to a short block and inspect throughly?
Are there plans for a motor rebuild?

[Shadow24V]

inspection on a motor stand. depending on damage, ill either salvage this motor or get another used one and save this one for parts.

for a buildup? M90 supercharger with P&P heads, RPW cams and springs and adj. cam gears. im hoping i can run the motor up to about 8000-9000 rpms with this setup and make at least 300whp (on less than 10lbs boost)

Hey Shadow,
Glad to see you're back to important tasks. I was afraid we were gonna have to send a phys. trainer to get this show on the road.
You know those of us born in the last century don't have a lot of time to waste.

Awww big plans. Why not build the bottom end and new pistons to support the supercharger more efficiently and not have reoccurences of this episode of engine issues because of track abuse and the added power?

[Ondonti]

Power had nothing to do with his failure. It was one of those 10 cent part takes down the space shuttle situations.

[Shadow24V]

thats pretty much the size of it, and it sucked lol

[thedon809]

You will probably make around 300 whp on 10 lbs of boost. There is a 95 sebring with a 3.0 swap making almost 400 whp and like 430 ft lbs of torque running 16 lbs of boost. Thats with the POS a604 that comes with the sebring/avenger. It has this kit on it Ripp Tuners Package - Supercharger SUPERCHARGER TUNER STAGE PACKAGE from MimoUSA.com

[Reaper1]

I didn't find a customer's rides, or shop car section off of that site...you got another link?

[Shadow24V]

ive heard of RIPP, they are big over on club3g.com i wouldnt go with one of their kits for a few reasons, i dont like centrifugal superchargers, its made to work with the OEM eclipse ECU and the kit has had a good bit of issues. id rather make my own kit with the roots than spend a stupid amount of cash on a kit ill have to mod anyways.

there are some people putting down good power with the RIPP kits, but its not for me

LOL, that might sound a bit sharper when the children of the 21st Century are old enough to have drivers licenses.
