Forced Induction Finished Builds

Mogoul · 02-14-2016, 01:52 PM

So finally made the jump to FI so I thought I’d take this opportunity to post up my build!

2014 Base w/Sport - Pearl White
Kit Used: AAM Comp. Twin Turbo
Current HP/Torque: 513whp/430tq @ 8lbs Boost
Fuel: 91 Octane
Miles since kit install: About 400 – cross country road trip in the very near future though…
Other Upgrades:
AAM Comp. R-Line Oil Cooler w/Thermostatic Sandwich Plate
Competition Stage 3 Segmented Ceramic Clutch
Heavy Duty Slave Cylinder
2x Tanabe Revel VSL Gauges -1 for AFR, 1 for Oil Temp
CSF Triple Pass Radiator
EcuTek Tuning w/Boost Control and Advanced Traction Control Options
AAM Y-Pipe 2.5” pipe w/ 3” flanges, Meisterschaft Rear and Mid SS Exhaust
Swift Spec-R Springs
Z-Speed Aluminum Undershroud

Near Future: Wavetrac LSD, Bushings (not sure if I'm going to do Whiteline or SPL Solids), Finned Diff cover (again still tossing up between the Nismo and Z1) and Koni Sport Yellow Shocks.

Mogoul · 02-14-2016, 02:03 PM

And here's the dyno..

V1H · 02-14-2016, 04:31 PM

Congrats Mogul, that's one sweet build and an awesome HP at just 8psi. Tells me how good the AAM kit is, as well as, EcuTek. Can't wait to get mine installed this spring!
Though I'll have full 3" instead of 2.5".
What cats do u run, if any?

Mogoul · 02-14-2016, 08:44 PM

The AAM kit is a beast man. I won't really be able to take full advantage of it until I get the LSD In. Still working out all the kinks with the tune right now, so more to follow with how the EcuTek is going. So far so good tho. Very user friendly for the most part.

Exhaust is almost full 3 inches; only the Y-Pipe is 2.5. I had the Meisterschaft rear and mid with the stock Y's. Forgot to order the Meisterschaft Y so when it came time in the TT build to put the exhaust all back together AAM ended up having to weld 3x 3" flanges onto one of their Y-pipes and mate onto the 3"down pipes and the Meisterschaft mids.

As to cats.... I'd like to assert my 5th amendment right against self incrimination

LOL.. i see.
Well, I opted for their 3" HFCs (400 cell ceramic) to play it safe with the road law here in U.K. Either way, Im sure it'll be making more power than I can handle. You've already obliterated my target of 600 bhp crank, and Im thinking of having a low-boost setting at 500 bhp for daily usability... no?

PS: have you got a pair of fitting turbo blankets for our EFR T25 IWG? Boost Resource seem to be the only makers.
Thx

Mogoul · 02-15-2016, 02:48 PM

Didn't bother with turbo blankets; for the time being anyway. Maybe at a later date. And if you want to get to 600bhp but stay under 10 pounds of boost then you're going to need a good tune/tuner to go wth the kit. I would recommend EcuTek. A lot more dear but the added functionality I think makes up for it.

Also I would highly recommend doing the LSD at or before the TT. Yes I got great numbers first time around but I can't use it because the stock VLSD is not designed to handle that much power. I wheel spin all the way into 4th. Just ordered the Wavetrac LSD this morning from Vivid as well as the whiteline bushings, Z1 diff cover (for added oil capacity) and OEM bearing/seal kit. So I'll be doing that install here in the next couple weeks when the parts get in.

Jayhovah · 02-15-2016, 03:59 PM

I forgot to add myself to this list... I finished up my kit installation at the beginning of January. I believe it to be the first DIY installation of the Gamma V3.

Car: 2013 Sport
Kit: Gamma V3 TT kit (Garrett GT2860)
Dyno: 520whp/412ft-lb
Boost: Don't currently know, no gauge
Fuel: Walbor 255lph pump, Denso 650cc injectors
Miles since install: about 3k
Related mods: Ecutek RaceROM, Z1 full face clutch/flywheel, ZSpeed HD CSC, Invidia Gemini Cat-Back exhaust, noname test pipes, GTR Spark plugs.
Tuner: JTRAN

Build Thread

Stock clutch was slipping when this dyno took place (see the torque dip).

V1H · 02-15-2016, 04:24 PM

Yes, my tuner is gonna use EcuTek over UpRev.
What exactly happens to the stock VLSD at this power? Does the power break the lock and one starts spinning one rear wheel. Will it break the stock unit or is it just annoying? Thx.

( Click to show/hide )

Mines at AAM right now ...
A few more things to be done before Dyno Day.
Looking to hit numbers similar to yours.
Went with the Flex Fuel upgrade and EcuTek Tune
Let me know how yours performs and if you plan to race it !!!

clkio · 02-26-2016, 09:13 AM

Z&I you will love it, the car is something else now. Focus on ALL the fueling upgrades (rails, lines, pumps). I ran the car low on fuel and drove it little hard to make sure its holding up and no fuel cuts or nothing. I had so much fuel cuts in with the supercharger and hence why I spent the money on the fueling requirements of the build. We dont have E85 where I am at, but I will tune for it in the summer, hoping some gas stations will run it soon around here (got the flex fuel upgrades as well).

yep ... it's a full build.
CJmotorsports fuel rails [already had them bought], AAM's new twin fuel pumps, and the lines as well to handle the E85.
Also went with the 1300 ID injectors.
[Not too many E85 stations around here either, but hopefully that will change. Will have to run 93 most of the time].
Did you get the Traction Control with the EcuTekTune?

clkio · 02-26-2016, 09:49 AM

Yes I did, without it would have been disaster hahah. I mean 305 tires spin at 65 miles an hour lol. That's why I am thinking 345 in the rears this summer.
