UPDATE!!! New Jet Hot Engine Parts!

UPDATE!!! Depressing Dyno Graph!

UPDATE!!! New Pics as of 9-6-04! Me and Russel with the Yellow Lancer took some pics of our cars to update our cardomain sites.

Current Additions: More Strobes, Neons, Autoglow LED underbody kit with Remote and 10 function whats-a-ma-jigger, 61" wing and system enclosure.

The system:

This setup was designed and fabricated by myself. All of the tubing that you see is 1 1/2 cold rolled steel (roll bar tubing) the amp floats above the setup and all of the wires run through the tubing to give a supa clean look. The subs are wired backwards, the amp was painted black and all of the "sony" and such lables were removed. It was finally painted Glasurit single stage purple. The best part is all of the tubing/amp rack is welded and one single piece,this makes for an interesting installation and removal.

I took a trip down to Exotic Motorsports in Chocranville PA, it is about 7,000 miles from my house in Wilkes-Barre (OK maybe not 7,000 more like 2.5 hrs but you try drivin in uncomfortable racing seats and 4 blown struts). There was a “meet”, a bunch of DSMs and some SRT-4s. After watching 19 people dyno it was my turn I paid my $40 and this is how it turned out:

Yes I drove 2.5 hours to put down a depressing 241.58whp and 247.48wtq. My air:fuel Ratio was 14:1... can any one say 2.0L DOHC turbo paperweight? Well luckily it didn't blow but it woulda had I done say a 4th gear pull rather than a 3rd. See my engine was knocking like a hyperactive teenager on a deaf-man's door. When the engine knocks it pulls timing so that the end result is the output power of a John Deere garden tractor. This is the engine's way of saying "hey stupid gimme some frigging gas". On a 2G 4G63 the optimal air:fuel ratio is in the vacinity of 10:1. With a ratio of 14:1 I was getting a whopping 13-14 degrees advance. Once I finally got home I decided to tear up the streets in an effort to get my damn timing back.. I did, I am running a lot richer now and am seeing around 19-20 degrees of timing at 6500 RPMs. Timing is power and 5 degrees advance has proven to yield in the vacinity of 30-40whp, So I believe that with the boost turned down to a safe 19 psi and my timing squared away an estimate of around 280 - 290 at the wheels is viable.

I am proud to say that I did or was involved in doing all of the work on this car, from the engine upgrades to the paint I had a hand in it. This is what I built. It's not for everyone but I like it and that is what matters to me. As I said before somethings I couldn't do all by myself, these things were only accomplished with the help of some of my friends and I would like to thank them here: Russell - for help changing the timing belt, the clutch and ur handy dandy mechanical knowledge and your support Thanks - Tom - for the shop to do the work in, the help with the engine upgrades mostly the exhaust and intercooler piping Thanks - Mike - for the sick ass paint job thanks - Coventry Restorations - for allowing me to use any equipment and getting me out of many pinches Thanks - Chris - for guiding me in the right direction when I decided to do performance upgrades and for answering just about every question that I bothered you with Thanks - For my sponsors; Slow Boy Racing, Street Imports and Chaser Aerodynamics, Thanks, Dad - for bein there every time I needed a hand and to get me out of a hole that I just dug myself Thanks - To my friends and family - for being there supporting me and my hobby Thanks - To my Car Club - LOW ROLLIN CREATIONS - We have the most kick ass members!.
