    12.38 et @ 110 mph in a 3800 Turbo Fiero

    We ran in the tens FWD with that same cam more than a year ago. Designed by Cam Motion, it's clearly an excellent turbo grind. Scott

    Aftermarket PCM

    Some people claim that dynoing in second gear will make the dyno record higher numbers because the engine can rev faster. Others claim that dynoing in third gear artificially inflates the numbers. Both theories have proven to be false on every car we've tested. The dyno automatically measures...

    Aftermarket PCM

    The best PCM we offer for your mod level is the INTENSE Standard PCM. We charge $99 to 'tune-up' your PCM and take it to the next level. We use and distribute the HP Tuners VCM Suite. In our opinion, it is unmatched in terms of value and ease of use. Their customer service is excellent...

    what to do first

    Darth is exactly right. Adjusting the boost bypass valve, or changing it's internal spring pressure will have no effect on how fast boost ramps up on these engines. Full boost is nearly instantaneous with our roots-type blowers. Scott

    3800 parts on a 3.8L

    Close. Actually, the only interchangeable components are the connecting rod bolts. Hope this helps. Scott

    Turbo GTP Hits 669.5 Crank Horsepower!

    Once we richened the mixture up, the head gasket issues disappeared completely, up to 20 pounds of boost. We haven't been past that number yet but will in 2004. Yes. According to our calculations, these injectors would have been done somewhere around 684 horsepower. But we're still running...

    Turbo GTP Hits 669.5 Crank Horsepower!

    All our mods are listed on the website at www.INTENSE-Racing.com. Just click on 'Our Turbo Project' on the left hand side. Please see above. We blew countless head gaskets early in the year. This was resolved by running ARP head studs, our MLS gaskets and richening up the air/fuel...

    Turbo GTP Hits 669.5 Crank Horsepower!

    Boost was solid at 22.0 psi all the way to 7,200 RPM. We ran it ultra rich just to play things safe. The wideband showed 11.3:1 for most of the run. Wheel horsepower was over 400 from 5,100 RPM all the way to 7,200 RPM. Peak wheel horsepower was 535.6 at 6,200 RPM. Peak crank...

    turbocharged 3800

    Actually, this was a budget project. I think we've spent somewhere around $20,000 on it INCLUDING THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE CAR. One thing that is huge though is the horsepower. Check this out: http://www.clubgp.com/newforum/fb.asp?m=1143688&key=&language=single Scott and Big Jeff

    Odd question.

    Right. Nothing is interchangeable except the connecting rod bolts. Scott
