I think you can do this with a tech2... though you'd need to know someone at a GM dealership willing to do it. I don't know, it's been a while since I messed with the GM security systems. -
Yeah you can do it with hptuners. The software is definitely a good investment, I would recommend it.Leave a comment:

Apparently you can do it with HP Tuners, which is what I am going to be trying. I'm a few weeks out on trying that, but I will have the software this week hopefully.
I bought the pro version because it has data logging for 1h30min built in to it so I won't need my laptop at the track if I want some data. Also the pro version allows support of extra gauges and sensors, as well as wide band O2 for tuning.Leave a comment:

Nice, 3.23 will be a nice diff. I'm still running the stock 2.93 and haven't decided if i should go 3.23 or 3.43.Leave a comment:

i just want a car to play around with. The biggest goal of the car was to do 100% of the work myself.
so far I have done everything, the only thing i wont be able to do is turn off the VATS. Im not counting that because it is nearly impossible for me to do itLast edited by blusylver; 04-17-2014, 01:06 PM.Leave a comment:

So exactly what kind of racing are you doing with it?Leave a comment:

I plan is to put a built 3.23 lsd rear end in it.
luckily I work for a for a CNC manufacture and I have an entire show room full of machines at my disposal. Before I started here I was a certified welder for 12 years. im so glad that fabing up mounts isn't an issueLast edited by blusylver; 04-16-2014, 05:21 PM.Leave a comment:

I want to cut that out and mount the intercooler vertically

this show that there is plenty of room

Im using that radiator for a mock up. I see no reason why this wont work. I will have to make new mounts for the valance and the radiator. ill also have to have a custom radiator made with the in/outlets on the top, that actually will be a good thing.
I have so much room now.
I have a crap valance that I can experiment with before I start cutting up my IS valance.Leave a comment:

I can attest to this. In order to use that extra power you'll have to put a lot of work into the back end. My bone stock 5.3L is a serious handful in the e30.Leave a comment:

Gatebil style rear mount radiator. Problem solved. Then you can stuff more cooler core in too.Leave a comment:

why not? Because when my E46 M3 was totaled I couldn't decied if I wanted to get a built v8 or a FI E30. I started off with the intention to do a turbo S52. But one night I found a great motor at an unbelievable price. a few weeks later I ran into a friend who was selling his procharger set up, so I made a half ass serious offer and he took it. so now I fully built procharged ls6 with.
car is just to have fun in. I have 2 pcms and I can go NA to FI in about 15 min topsLast edited by blusylver; 04-16-2014, 05:16 PM.Leave a comment:

Why put the blower? An NA LS is more than an E30 can handle to begin with. With the added torque from the blower you'll probably rip the car in half. Is this for a drift car?Leave a comment:

I was bored at work today and posted this. ill be looking and measuring everything to night. i know that my ls1 water pump has about 3/4 of an inch before it touches the radiator. the crank pulley has alot more room than that, so MAYBE the procharger pulley will fit.
ill post pics tonight or tomorrowLeave a comment:

I've toyed with the idea of lengthening the very front of my car by a few inches to fit a supercharger pulley up in there... but it would just be way too much work. I think if I go FI I'll be doing a remote mount turbo or something.
Some race shop on here posted a few videos of their car a little while ago. I believe it was a N/A LS2/3. They ran a rear-mount radiator for whatever reason, you might want to look into doing that. They were beating on it pretty hard on the track and they didn't complain about the temps at all... I think.Leave a comment:
