Hopefully I'll get the motor tomorrow or monday, then I'll update ya'll with a bunch of pictures of the headers and disassembly process.
The thing that really tempts me to keep the twins is that since they are sequentially controlled, power from the little turbo (really small T2) starts to kick in at 1800 rpm! I've seen dyno sheets of this motor putting out 280 pound feet of torque at only 3300 rpm with only a piggy-back ECU, intake, and exhaust!
I'll be using a fully programable sequential Haltech EMS. This gives me the ability to adjust boost,air/fuel ratios, timing, idle speed, launch control ect, at any rpm at any time with my laptop. Meaning if the motor runs lean at 6250 rpm and rich at 6900, I can adjust the air/fuel ratio at the seperate rpm's to get the perfect 14.7 pressure, and also beyond that, I can set the timing to retard even more and more with more boost at higher rpm's... so basically, yeah everything is adjustable. Motec does the same thing for $2000 more, Do I want the name? Or do I want to finish the car before i'm thirty :shrug: ?
The bet is still on with some friends and family that i can't get the car done by July 15th 2006... so Russell has no life and no money to spend on his girlfriend for the next 10 months
. I even cut down on the booze to get this car done :haveadrin !
