Holy Sh1t balls that's BIG!! Even .89 is too big for anything but drag racing lol. .64 is just about perfect for a 2.0L engine.

Yep, the 21cm was massive but the good ol' beta had full spool at 5k with 15psi so I imagine I'll be in the 2500 - 3000 range with the new housing.



Now I'll have to get the tune tweaked but that's fine. Plan is to run stock timing on e85 which I'm sure it'll handle fine. I'm debating if I want to keep it at 15psi or bump it up to 20psi.

Transmission and related stuff....







Self filled tranny mounts















Push clutch conversion parts



















ACT 6 puck sprung disk and custom MAXX pressure plate. Should be good to 500hp























Figured the trans and brackets could use a little bit of cleaning up















Still more to come!

That's the opposite of the color of the transmission on the floor in my garage right now. Beautiful.

Time for more pictures!

Bosch 1000cc EV6 saturated injectors

















Aeromotive A1000 FPR











DSM 6an fuel rail fitting



















I have a 6an line coming from the rail to the FPR and then a 4an running back to the stock return line on the driver side of the bay. I know the return line will become a bottleneck at some point especially since I'm running e85.

I did the Beta II head swap years ago with a mild port and polish and just recently installed some cam regrinds from Colt Cams. I had to run lash caps since the lash adjusters are mechanical versus the hydraulic in the Beta I head.









Crower .035" lash caps. Things were expensive due to the odd stem size diameter.











Cam specs













The cams themselves had a turn around time of two weeks which wasn't bad considering I sent them off to Canada.

Nice job!! Happen to have a compressor map for that turbo? 15-20psi on that biggie may flow way more than stock timing can handle....even on E85.

SpoolinShark

I did some digging around and it looks like the H1C I have will flow 50 lb/min in the 21-28psi range. The maps for this turbo seem to vary a lot (numerous versions of the H1C) so I'm taking a lucky guess on the range it flows the most but that seems common among other versions of Holsets.



I did get the 12cm housing on and it makes a tremendous difference in spool time and throttle response. My friend and I did some more tuning last night and the tib was spiking 18psi around 4k if not earlier. I'm pretty confident that I'm in the 300-350hp range though. I need to get my 8psi wastegate spring and manual boost controller installed so I can keep the boost from creeping like it has been.



As for now I need to focus on getting the power to the ground since 2nd and 3rd gear just like to spin. It wouldn't hurt to get a lsd and some super sticky tires. Anyone have any other suggestions?



I still have more pics to post up and hope to get some up tomorrow.

Man your beating the piss out of that poor stock beta block at that PSI. E85 is definitely saving your bacon!!



So your EWG has a 15psi spring in it and your spiking to 18psi at 4k rpm? Either its not really a 15psi spring or you've got some flow restrictions in your exhaust system. That turbo might need a 3" Turbine back exhaust to keep backpressure to a minimum. What size EWG is it? Does it feed back into the DP or just vent to atm?

SpoolinShark

It's actually a 14psi Tial spring and I know it's the right one because I installed it. As for the exhaust, it's a 2.5" open dump so there shouldn't be much restriction at all. The wg is a 38mm and it's vented to the atmosphere for now.



I received my 8psi spring and mbc so hope to get them on tonight. When we were doing the tuning the other night my friend said the FIC was picking up 33psi at peak so I'll let you do the math. I'm running a vacuum manifold and the FIC and boost gauge are both fed off that so the readings should be similar.



Main reason I went with e85 is because it's cheap, less chance of knock and lower egts!
