Tony\'s 12a Turbo on the dyno

not sure what his username is on here, I just pulled his gorgeous gsl 12a-turbo off the dyno.

Setup is megasquirt for fuel, and that wierd distributor + msd on the leading, rebuilt stock turbo with a 2nd gen compressor wheel. he can tell you the rest of the details when he catches this thread

and the only pic i can find of his car, while we were doing the ms install:

thanks, it was a tedious experience due to the lack of concrete information regarding the engine, but we got it sorted out.

very nice.. what was the boost level and fuel used? I have most of the setup for a turbo 12A.. header, turbo (3.0L supra). front cover with oil drain, downpipe (3"), FMIC... what I don't have is an external wastegate and a BOV... if you do some digging in my progress thread for my old car, you'll find pics of the setup.. I'm going 13B now though.

What does it cost you to complete the project?

From Hotrocket85 on 15.03.2006, 20:12:

It was...$$ Priceless. Honestly the engine install alone and getting it running (dyno days) was around $3k. This of coarse was over two summers. The phrase "Its not what you know , it's who you know" really came into play. Totally worth it.

hahah, I know all about that... who you know makes a HUGE differance... I have a few people I know who know a lot, and have stuff I needwhich they sell for a reasonable price.. I wish I had gotten my 12A streetport on the dyno.. I figure it would have been about 160-170 HP at 8000 with the webers and exhaust.. about 140-150 in a daily driver form (one which you can hear after you drive)
