My old 300hp 4g93 needs some lovin!

lsaklr.jpg Woo hoo, car going Sweeeeet. Put some timing back into it tonight and holy crap! Definitely time for a E85 tune.
Have a go at the plates I photochopped onto the old girl. A good way to piss off the bowtie boys I recon.
Pity plates are so dear in NSW.

LS1 is the 5.7 in the VT to VY.
LS2 is the 6.0 that they put in the VE.
Now they put LS3 in the VF series 2. It is 6.2L. and the LSA is a supercharged version of that I believe.
All of which are no match for a lil ol 1.8L 980kg lancer.
 
TBH I feel 140kw is the ideal power level for these cars.
Quite fast, good turbo response, driveable, reliable and traction is still ok.
 
I agree with the 140 setup. any more they are good in a straight line but start to loose on everything else. But I must say the rush is intoxicating.
What the Falcodore bogans don't realize is weight is their biggest enemy. they think they can overpower it.
Mind you, there a few xr6 turbos getting around I don't want to mess with.
 
New injectors and E85 tune on Monday,
Yew. Cant wait.
Should max out the fuel pump and turbo at about 360, 380 hp atw!
Coilovers and brakes and half cage (thanks to Mightycarmods boys) coming real soon.E85_yew.jpg
 
I would have the same grin throwing that kind of power into it with corn juice! Well done man, can't wait to see the results! Are you coming down to world time attack? I'd love to sticky beak the car while I'm in the state!
 
YEAH BABY!!!

Pretty stoked with that.
The 3 numbers are the boost settings.
242 is your normal street driving
307 is for when you need to get past the bloke that spent $20k on his Falcodore.
322 is for well making tyre smoke at 100ks an hour.
Tuner thought it would get more. Fuel pump run out of puff and the turbo isnt far behind.
