89 coupe project
yes its solid roller. and its blowthru. there are alot of people to help me with the boost contolling and 7531 that have delt with it before that i know. and its carbureted, not really much to tune, but kevin at CSU is always a phone call away. the initial tuning with probably be done by sam@coastal. just to double check everything and give it a safe baseline.

cant wait until parts actually start connecting. 99% of everything is here, just is everywhere. when i get the car back the project is going to really start rolling. im getting the heads back maybe tomorrow. ill get some pics of those done and put together. got alot of nice stuff to put on those...hit the wallet like a feather of course
Who did your carb? You do know that blow-thru's don't work right? Nice stuff!

oh blowthrus dont work? better change all of my plans then. whew im glad someone told me it doest work before i finished this project. lol
thanks! i try. i called you A LONG time ago and talked to you about the blow-thru and powerglide on the street. at the time i had the d-1 procharger. but i got WAY too good of a deal on these turbos to pass up.
Cool, that's going to make sick power! We ended up sending our carb (csu) to Brent Davis over on tf and was the best money spent on our car. Kevin is great for a track car but, Brent's set up with the pump is the best for the street.

and what benefits did you get from it?
i hope it all works out well together.
To give you an idea, with the csu carb we had 72/87 jets to get a 12.0 a/f and driving on the street it had a lean spot just before the boost came in. Sometimes it would pop in the hat cause it was so lean. Kevin's brpv's use the boost to open.
Brents carb set-up uses the same carb but he makes his own brpv's and they open from a small air pump/rshared_pm switch. He also goes through the metering blocks better and they flow enough fuel to fix the lean spot. With the metering blocks working better and the brpv's opening with the pump our car was able to run 68/68 jets and 10.5 a/f. You have no idea how much better the car drives with the less jet, nice and clean.
With Kevin's carb if you put it up on the trans brake it would go way lean then rich (as soon as the boost came in) With Brent's it came up clean and we would set the brpv's to open just after you let go of the brake.
Brent charges 900 for the pump, rshared_pm switch, his brpv's and all the work. He also will help along the way and if you change your combo he will step up the carb for free.
