Hey guys!

I know I should be taking pictures and updating my "PIA Project" thread (I swear I'll get to it...), but I thought this deserved a thread of it's own, and since it's not really part of the same project, here you go.

Today my Magnus Motorsports Drag Version arrived, along with my Street Version warranty repair (For Sale!)... I had the Drag Version built with the optional provisions for a secondary fuel rail to feed an additional 4 injectors. Also, I decided to go with the q45 TB options.

So anyways, here's some comparison photo's of the two manifolds:

Looks like I'm gonna need a fuel system upgrade!

I still need to pick up a TB, and I'm planning on running a new IC setup with appropriately sized piping, but it's gonna be a little while before all that happens. For now the plan is to run my current PTE 1000's as secondaries, which will come on as load increases, and a set of FIC 650's as primaries, which will make for great drivability, and a combined flow of 1650cc's (duh).

I know that I can run larger capacity Bluemax injectors with great drivability, but I thought I'd give 8 a shot, especially since I already had them all. I'm planning on running the FJO injector driver, which is sold in compoundable units that control 4 injectors each, instead of AEM's 10. Don't get me wrong, the AEM injector driver is great, but since the FJO is $150-175 and the AEM is $350-400, I decided it's worth sacrifing that ability (it's a 4 cyl after all...).

Pic 2, holy Jesus. :headbang: That thing looks tits!

hehe, yeah, the plenum on the street version is significantly bigger than on the stock manifold, and the runners are way shorter. The drag version plenum is around twice as big as the street version, plus I had it flanged for a q45 TB which I believe is about 95mm, over the stock 60mm turbo TB.

Remind me what kinda power this thing is making/going to make?

Well, no one likes a bench racer, but here's the facts: I ran 12.7 @ 106 on my old turbo (BR20G around 44-46lb/min) @ 23psi on 91 octane. I'm now running a much larger turbo (pte6262 should be well over 70lb/min) with the intention of running 9-10k rpm and 35+psi on e85.

I'm dreaming up a number in the 650+ whp range (corrected), but that's just speculation at this point.

:shrug:

Hell yeah, anything making 600+ whp means good times! :headbang:

hell yes!! that intake is SICK!

Thanks guys, it should be fun once I get the car back on the road!

Now back to the press for another gazillion hours of suspension/drivetrain work!

 

[Bigeasy]

Daaaaaayyyyuuuuuuummmmmmmm!!!!!!

 

[pullinboost]

When do you plan on having this thing out and about???

 

[92stroker]

Well, right now it pulls hard on 20psi from the 6262 on pump gas, and I was DDing it before I put it up to do the suspension work. So, realistically, it will be on the road once I'm done rebuilding the driveshaft and front suspension, which I already have all the parts for, just don't have much time. Once it's back on the road, I'll start putting together the parts to do the 8 injector setup and install the new mani which will include sumping the stock tank, an-10 lines and fittings, and building a new one piece intercooler pipe with an integrated PWR 6" x 8" barrel. So my entire intake plumbing will have one coupler at the TB and one coupler at the compressor outlet, and should be VERY short.

So basically I need about 2k worth of fuel system and IC components before I'll install the manifold. I'll be on the street again in another month or so, hopefully, and the new manifold/tb/ic system should be ready before the 2010 drag racing season starts up.

that sounds like a bad ass setup

Thanks! Hopefully all goes as planned, there's still a lot of work to do...

Good luck with the build man
