This is a great dyno comparison, so thanks for providing. Area under the curve is pretty impressive on the GTM kit. Will be interested to see comparison results when you are fully tuned out. And congrats on making great power.

Who said anything about GTM v. your shop? The more turbo options the better for our car, especially with how little support this platform has gotten so far.
You even had Sam from GTM in on this, no one is saying anything negative. I was just supplying some information that I have seeing as I was standing next to the dyno when that GTM TT run was done.

O&G · 11-08-2011, 10:05 PM

I did the fuel system install and Sam was nice enough to send me the TT manual which helped a ton, I also did the radiator/condenser, thermostat, gauges, transmission mount, re-wired the transmission wires away from heat sources, spark plugs, oil pan spacer and pulled together a few loose ends while Johnny welded it up. Took us about 4 days to get her running. It was nice having a hand in the build and also great to have resources like Johnny, this forum, etc... I was happy when she started right up! These Comp turbos with the oil-less system have a break in period of about 500 miles because the center cartridge is packed full of some crazy grease/lube that is broken up from the coolant running through the turbo. I can actually hear the turbo spool down for a long time once the car is turned off, sounds like a plane shutting down...lol. I am @ 524 miles w/ this kit.

I'd love to be able to do that too.. most shops don't let you on their work areas for insurance purposes

O&G · 11-08-2011, 10:44 PM

Well I'm kinda part of the fam in a way. I've known them for many years and it was a joint venture..... if you will. JTran really does treat their customers well, anyone who has ever dealt w/ them will vouch for that. It's a 3 person operation, gota give it to them for the projects that come out of that shop. Family style business, good stuff. Well respected in the industry and through-out our area. Lots of subies, evos and anything turbo basically.

car8oy281 · 11-08-2011, 10:56 PM

thanks so Much Justin! thanks for entrusting us with your two past projects. Justin's old 350 ran like a champ. broke the kdws loose in fourth gear on the highway easy! Justin's is part of the family! he's been riding for us forever seems like now. ill see u tomorrow at the shop.....should be starting the old 350 up tomorrow and break in on the Dyno. as Justin said, its a three person operation. we are about to expand into bikes, our second passion in life LOL. regardless we keep up with our customers and go out of the way to try and make everyone happy. we are picking up our customers gtr in the morning from his house to get ready for the next track day event! the feroda pads don't last too long! gonna be throwing on some pagid yellows and trying those out.

can't wait to see this.... for those who don't know, I sold my old 350 to some teen from Florida who didn't know how to use a boost controller...needless to say he blew the motor and drove it into a ditch, now it has a new owner from South Dakota and it's hilarious because the car is back here at JTranns. I now have my new 370 w/ my old 350 in the same shop (they cuddle)....I'll be there 2mar to see her start up....fresh new engine, yummmy...Should make great power on the Mustang. Greddy w/ CJM ftw all day long.

roplusbee · 11-10-2011, 01:27 PM

The part about the cuddling mad me chuckle. So how goes the tune?

O&G · 11-10-2011, 03:53 PM

Car runs great, tune is spot on, driveability is great, still waiting on dumb greddy boost sensor. It's amazing how much the A/C fan cools down the water temp, just throwing that out there....lol. Sitting @ wastegate boost 6-7 psi still. I need new tires so bad and havn't had time, been a busy week. I'll post dyno charts when I up the boost to 10 - 10.50 psi. I'll have some driving footage and real pics done tomorrow with my old Z...... got a photographer friend.

roplusbee · 11-10-2011, 04:01 PM
