new/old turbo SHO

[92sho16]

Now that the car is running and driving i figured i would share a post about the car. The setup is basically toolman's from his red 90 with a few changes. The car has

Engine
3.2 Engine with 9.1 forged pistons( i believe, tim can correct me here)
Turbonetics 62-1 Turbocharger with .81 exhaust housing
Front mount intercooler
Tial 50mm BOV and 38mm WG
Ceramic Coated hot pipes (from the group buy)
Ceramic Coated Manifolds
Magnaflow Stainless exhaust
SHOnut Hi-flow FPR
255 lph HP fuel pump
48 lb Accel (new disc style)
90mm lightning MAF
Tweecer
PLX WB
AEM Truboost
Remote Oil filter

Drivetrain
CM3 Clutch
Quaife
Jose SHOrt Shifter

Chassis
Gen 3 sf
Brembo Cobra r brakes (found them cheap on ebay)
Tokico Struts and Intrax Springs
Ingalls Rear tublar control arms
17x8 TD PR1.2s (street)
17x9 TD PR1.2s (track)


Now all thats left to do is tune. The car doesnt like to idle in gear its lopey but not at low rpm. The car also runs lean at no throttle cruising at speed it runs well at wot probably a little to rich. I plan to do some datalogging today but im not 100% on what im doing so ill be needing some help, ill post the tune and some datalogs for anybody that can help.

Where is the 90mm MAF mounted; don't see it in the photo; wouldn't it have to be close to the intake to get accurate readings ?

I'm betting on it being in the fender.

Sure enough photobucket site show's the MAF just under the headlight behind where the bumper skin goes.

Its a draw through setup but it is as close to the turbo inlet as possible.

These cars remind me of the Multimatic Motorsports cars from the 90's, they raced these highly modded cars in the CTCC (Canadian Touring Car Championships)

Its the high flow model from sho nut, so it splits the fuel rails and the fuel that returns to the tank doesnt pass through the rail.

SHONut's high flow FPR kit. Dual feeds, one to each rail, feeds the rails dead-head, the return is at the FPR, not the rails themselves. Looks like the fuel supply manifold is a bit different than the pics on Josh's site. Maybe he rolled his own.


Nice build, very well executed.
