Is a bigger turbo going to help in a hill climb? I'm sure a 20G or something might be good, but what about a 50 trim? Or a 30R? In hill climbs you want good mid range in addition to top end, right? You aren't really up high revving for very long, right? I'm just trying to understand the whole hill climb thing.
That show there looked pretty good. Man I hate it in Chambersburg, I want to move back to Pittsburgh!!!

Well here is the thing. the variation in courses is problem. Courses like Giants and Jefferson you could use something like a 30 or 35r. there are plenty of straights were you need the power up top. Now on some of the other hill. There are alot of lower speed turns to deal with. I'm talking 2nd gear turns. So I really need to have a turbo that dosn't take very long to spool. Really to do it right i would need two turbo's for different hills. But what would be a good comprimise? Evo Green? that or a TME turbo. If your wondering what hillclimbs are like you should come out to Polish mtn and watch and or volenteer. They really are like a short tarmac rally stage. Lots of freaking steep turns. I think the end at Giants is like 22 degree incline. Which is dam steep.

to geoff (owner of full-race) and he believes it will spool damn near the stocker
but make alot more power. This is however not cheap and will be alot more
involved then just a turbo upgraded. It is a option! Full-race is building 3 cars
with this kit with turbo's ranging from from 3071 for road course to 4094 for
drag. Should be interesting.

added a link for the kit....it's sexy!

LOL. Yup, your right i think. Altho i'm sure as heck going to blow the thing before i do that. I am going to own this car for a long time so i'll have a chance eventually to build the "perfect setup".
So i'll try and make the meet on sat. Im not sure yet but we'll see.

I threw down 270 whp and 265 lb-ft on CBRD's mustang dyno. Seems low, but I guess you figure at least 10% loss vs a dynojet. (300 on a dynojet) Chad said with my mods, that's right where I should be. And I might add, that I'm now boosting a safer 21 psi and running a much safer knock free map than big Al's 23+psi "toon." So I guess I'm happy with the number. I'm happy with the car, most importantly, and the service these guys provided. I've never been to a shop that would discount your final price for taking too long... Nothing but class. And my MBC decided to take a **** on the dyno (of all times to break). No problem, Chad fixed it with a new one! Great review, thanks again Chad and Mark!
My mods were: HKS catback, HKS downpipe, Works Hi Flow cat (the power killer!!!), GSC S1 cams, HKS intake, Hallman MBC, and a Winebro Fuel pump. Stock everything else.
The end result looks like I may have to stop being a tree hugger and ****can the cat!
I never really truly realized how you guys with the IX's make sick power with so little. It's like having aftermarket cams, stock.
CBRD is having some dyno days for only like $55 dollars for 4 pulls. Boost and Wideband. That's a steal! Or also a Jester tuning day for those interested in his tune. I don't really think Jester would do much more than Chad would though...
