Code Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Are you going to run e85? That's an awful lot of injector for a vf52 "Striving to better, oft we mar what's well." - Bill Shakespeare - car modder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blake23 Posted February 16, 2014 Author Share Posted February 16, 2014 270-280 haha what do you have a similar setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gex Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Pretty similar to my setup. I ran 300/308 on a dyno jet with a 38mm waste gate, 650 injectors, full turbo back , upgraded tmic, etc... Either way it will be a fun setup I love my external waste gate. It scares the children. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike07LGT Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Depends on what dyno you are being tuned on... some read lower than others. Good luck with your tune because its not the numbers that matter its the quality of the tune 03 WRB WRX (RIP) 04 JBP STI (sold) 07 DGM Legacy GT (RIP) 12 OBP STI (DD) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhino6303 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I'm at 295/315 (dyno dynamics) on a setup similar without the fmic, ewg and injectors. -spearco tmic -vf52 -dw65 -kstech 73mm intake -grimmspeed ebcs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PutnamCO Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Looks like fun, I ran a VF52 on E85 a few years ago and really liked it. If you haven't upgraded your TMIC, talk to BarManBean and at least reinforce it- http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/bulletproof-tmic-mod-lgt-08-wrx-158870.html My stock TMIC lasted only a couple hundred miles after upgrading to the VF52.

I would be amazed if your stock clutch lets you see anything even close to 300whp.

lee07 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Start shopping for a clutch and flywheel. My stock clutch went after a couple thousand miles. Dynapac, yes you will see 300. Mustang dyno, no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serx7 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Regardless of the #s, if the tune is well done you'll be pretty happy I think. My 05 OBXT turned peak 303 whp / 339 wtq on Procom Racing's Mustang AWD-500-SE dyno last summer, 93 oct pump gas. Main upgrades: VF52 DW65 pump DW740 injectors IPR TMIC GS EBCS TGV deletes GS PnP/coated collectors Invidia catless UP Cobb catted DP Nameless resonated mid/Y w/ stock mufflers Stock clutch holding fine but it's a SpecB 6MT...

rhino6303 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 I'm still stock clutch on my 5mt with 125k miles and no signs of slippage; I'm actually very surprised, as I didn't think it would last this long (10k since the VF-52 upgrade).

That's VERY good to hear..seeing how this small build crushed my tax money..hopefully it will be well worth it! On another note I did stop by Andrewtech today to see how everything was going..the turbo/up pipe/wastegate and intercooler are on, injectors are going in right now. also got a nice teaser pic. The suspense is killing me.. thanks for all your input guys I really appreciate it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blake23 Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 Made 290/306 until clutch started slipping. But wow what a difference..feels like an entirely new car and sounds like one too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thisheregirafFe Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 nice work! did you do everything at once? if so that's gotta be a HUGE difference. i'm basically the same setup as you: 52/ebcs/850cc/65c/turboback - also just put on ELH yesterday and retuned to 290/318 on EFI's mustang dyno. absolutely LOVING the added torque and wider power band from the headers. have you done any suspension work? the car is going to beg for it after going so far beyond stock numbers. i can put anything i want down here?!
