Title: At a Crossroads, need Advice
Post by: Inspiribomb on August 26, 2007, 12:08:47 PM
I have about come to the point with modifying the Tbird where I've exhausted pretty much all the "bolt-ons" and I am getting into some more extensive mods.  I am rapidly approaching the limit of my computer and injectors, so I need to decide if I want to go with a standalone computer, bigger injectors, big-@$$ turbo, etc, or if I can be happy being just "fairly quick."

Ultimately, I'd like to be able to run mid-13's consistently (I ran 14.33 on the IHI with a day full of problems and hot weather).  I believe I can accomplish this with a T3 .60/.63 with the stock computer/injectors.  But at the same time, I want the car to be reliable and not have to constantly worry about it.  Please offer some advice, thanks!

+1 Ether.  T3 is the way to go.  Also: just adjusting the fuel pressure can give you as much as 10 hp at the rear wheels.  And open up the exhaust, big time.

just make sure the wastegate actuator arm isn't set to 14psi and you'll be able to run the boost needed.  lol.
