Stage 1 Cal from www.fwdperformance.com
2.5" Exhaust, no muffler www.fwdperformance.com
Grainger Valve
Dual Supercoupe Intercooler mounted up front
6-puck ceramic clutch from www.turbosunleashed.com


Car ran a 13.78 @ 98.8 on slicks and 12 PSI boost, online HP calculators say right around 240 WHP. Should be right around 250 WHP on 15PSI once I figure out why its not holding that.

 

awesome

thanks,
- Dave

 

i'll be drinking alcohol

 

T3/T4 50trim
3" exhaust
+20 injectors
12psi
... Just a tad slower than a Stage 2 SRT4

Next up:
Modded cal
+40 injectors
17psi
... Target: 330whp

Then I throw on a front mount and crank the boost to 20psi. After all is said and done I'm looking for close to 400whp.

Supporting hardware:
Wideband UEGO
Adjustable fuel pressure regulator
Walbro
3 bar MAP
Boost controller

 

i was looking to go for the full 3" exhaust, 3 bar map, +40%'s, stage 4 cal (20 psi), t3/t4 50 trim

- Dave

can stock T3 internals handle that ???

 

The internals will handle it and then some.... I was running 25 psi for 4 years and 421 hp and it did just fine...

 

awesome, thats good to know !!!

thanks for the info,
- Dave

 

I'm following the Wallace plan for power, Just have to wait for him to park in a dark spot:thumb: Seriously though, I'm thinking A lonewolf stage 2 port with stage 1 cams A trim-cal with 72# injectors & a beautiful holset waiting to break things

 

Think traction as well, all the power makes a nice smoke show, but gotta get it to the ground...

WORD! Extra power is useless unless it can be put to the ground, SOOOOO.... First thing I'd personally go with are all mounts supplied by PolyBushings (available at FWD-Performance also).

 

Hell I'm traction less now on the street with filled bushings with the stock setup. But a least with more power you can pedal it in to the 12's:laugh:

 

Or just put slicks on it I had never driven a car with slicks and I was able to pull off a 1.93 60' my second pass.

 

awesome,

any1 else runnin mods on a T3 ???

let me know,
- Dave

 

Fill or replace mounts to eliminate wheel hop, exhaust, IC, ECU + injectors, turbo, and slicks

 

welded head w/ three angle valve job; full turbo back 3in exaust w/ cat and magnaflo muffler; stage 1 ECU; +20's; RFL BOV.

Next mods include front and side air bags (ya right) LOL ... front and side engine mounts from Polybushings, rear sway bar, rear adj koin's and a phanthom grip lsd

Then hopefully a new turbo (I'd like an s-70) FMIC; bigger injectors and bigger fuel pump. also probably will need a reflash of the ECU

 

i think i found the mods i want for my car ...

heres the setup (that i want)

full 3" exhaust
t3/t4 hybrid (50 trim)
+40's
255 fuel pump
3 bar map
stage 4 cal (FWDP)(20 psi)
k&n drop in
udp

and other supporting stuff ...

Not a problem. I will be for sale her in the next few months. I will let ya know.

 

ya pm me first before you post it on here to give me a chance of getting it. I just lost the one that was in the FS section by 5 hrs the guys said. I am on hear every day so you will not have to wait long for a responce.

 

There was one in the f/s for a month before it sold, you should have grabbed it. Everything I've read about the s70 did not sound that promising over the stock TIII snail

If your looking for a no hassle replacment and a little more power. If you can get one for a good price, its worth it. Now, if you have to pay full price for one. Save your money and go with a hybrid.

 

I have had my Spirit R/T running for a while now since I got the car put back together after sitting a few years. I did some mods to it, but mostly to fix problems the car had already had before I bought it. Had broken motor mounts, bad trans, extremely clogged exhaust system, a broken rocker, bad lifters etc etc..it's running pretty good now that I have fixed most of the major problems but I am still working out some bugs with the setup. Here is the mod list:

Manifolds: LWP ported exhaust manifold thermal coated in/out. Stock intake.

Exhaust: 3" FWDP cat-back kit, 3" downpipe, no cat, Dynomax Ultraflo muffler.

Fuel: Walbro 255 ltr/hr in-tank pump, LWP fuel rail, Accufab AFPR, Russel inline filter, 3/8" aluminum hard lines and 6AN braided S/S flex sections. Modified sender for 3/8" in/out of tank. Also MP +20 injectors yet to be installed.

Other: Tial 50mm BOV, KN drop-in air filter, FWDP underdrive pulley, McMaster-Carr vacuum distribution block, grainger valve boost controller, Autometer A/F and vac/boost gauges in Lotek A-pillar pod, OTC 4000E scanner, 16" GTC lace wheels and Kumho 225/50/16 tires, FWDP braided S/S brake line kit, Polybushings.com motor/trans mounts, Magnecor spark plug wires, NGK BR9ES spark plugs, FWDP aluminum valley cover, powder coated black valve covers and intake manifold. OK I'll shut up now

You might want to add a big IC to that list. The stock IC is a big restricktion at that boost level. Check out my car domain page for IC mounting options. I did not do the work, but It will give you and idea of what you can do. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2258018 Also you may want to search on this board about udp. I think some have had problems with them. Personally I would spend my money on something else. Just my opinion, but opinions are like ...holes everybody has one.
