My turbo...

[Ohio Tom (DdK)]

Hey all. I finally got some smaller size photos of my car to post.

[Ohio Tom (DdK)]

and another

[Ohio Tom (DdK)]

2 more

[Ohio Tom (DdK)]

1904cc. 110 cam, 40 x 35.5 mild ported heads.
T-3 turbo with 40mm side draft Dellorto.
Been together for 4yrs now.

Sportsbug seats re-done custom fabrics.

I love the engine (car is nice as well  ). Exactly the size I was looking at lately: 1904, and also lately I have again started looking at Turbo's. It might not be true cal-look, but oh does it look mean.

My plan would be to build that 1904 now(I wnated the slight bump to a trusty 1776, but with the added value of a small stroker) and add the Turbo later on. So could you elaborate on your set-up?

[bugkeeper]

Nice engine, do you have any performance figures or 1/4 mls time? What boost are you running?

I am running something similar, 1914cc, 40 x 35.5, 8:1, mild cam, piston coolers, T3 and a Holley 350 and a Mallory ignition with map sensor.

I have no performance figures yet, the images were taken last season and the engine was a slightly modified (dual valve spring) stock 1585cc engine. It delivered 121 HP with only 5 PSI of boost.

[bugkeeper]

Thank you Peter, I wonder why you like that dash layout... 

[Ohio Tom (DdK)]

Nice Car Dom. Very similar theme... Well done..


My motor is a 1904cc
Scat 74mm volksracer crank (I got new real cheap).
Scat I-beam rods.
Straight cut cam gears
90.5mm mahle p/c's.
Mofoco 042 heads (got them super cheap too). Mild p/p job with exh guides cut back. 3 angle valve job.
W-110 cam with stock rockers on solid shafts.
T-3 turbo on Matt Davis header.
Side draft 40mm Dell with many turbo mods.
boost-ref Holley regulator with Carter 14psi fuel pump.

The car has run a best of 12.23 @ 112mph on 16psi.
it is very consistent. I have run 12.20's with it every summer for the last 4yrs.
I take it to the track once a summer to lay down a # and get my "100mph club" sticker.

It made 193RWHP on a chassis dyno. 230ftlbs of torque.

I have the means to build a bigger motor for the car, but I am afraid to change anything. I'm kind of wating for something to fail, but it just keeps running strong.

The only issue I seem to have is with my old "RAYJAY" wastegate.

Time to upgrade to a TAL.

It sure does catch people off guard...

The motor is super rugged. I have done nothing  but drive it and hammer on it for several years now.  and all I have to do is change oil and plugs.
you can see that the dist cap is getting faded from being outside so much.
Ask anyone who knows me. I drive this car ALOT.

Tom, at what RPM did you get those 193 hp? Impressive times. What Ignition setting are you running? Fixed and locked dizzy? Isn't a w110 too much cam?
Cheers Dom

[Ohio Tom (DdK)]

The peak hp was around 4,500rpm. Peak tq was around 3,500rpm.
It pulls easliy to 6,000rpm.
it all depends on how much boost I run. The more I run, the higher it seems to pull.

Mallory HyFire box. Locked dist 32deg with 8deg of retard on boost.
Blue coild feeding a Unilite dist. No ingintion issues at all.
Rev limit to 6,000rpm for street driving and 6,600rpm for track use.

SCHÖN, SCHÖN, SCHÖN

Hey Tom was meinsch.. e 12er Zyt söt dinne ligge, i muess eifach no 40 kg abspäcke! 

[Ohio Tom (DdK)]

I'm sorry. I didn't quite get that??

[WCB Hitler's Hot Rod]

Huh?

[vwcab]

Hey Tom was meinsch.. e 12er Zyt söt dinne ligge, i muess eifach no 40 kg abspäcke! 

He says that 12's should be possible, and in that case he has to lose some weight(+/- 40kg). 
@ Dominique,correct me if I'm wrong.

[TOM / EINHEIT 11]

He, höran dr uf mit dem schwizer dutch do! 

Lets get back on track..

[bugkeeper]

Hey Rune that's no schwizer dutch... that is schwiezer dütsch or schwiezer deutsch, dutch is something else 

Peter's translation is perfect, I don't know why I keep writing English to you guys, Rune I hear you are half Austrian 

Yes get back on track, can't wait... and Tom I lost 7 kg so far but now my weight wont budge... I guess I will have to crank up the boost level... changing the waste gate setting is far easier than loosing weight.

I am seriously trying to get rid of my midriff, if my doctor would no what motivates me after all that time he would send me to a metal institution… 

Cheers Dom
