Stock turbo 4.1 build question

[phillyvader]

Anyone see anything wrong with running a stock turbo on a 4.1 street motor?? Here is whats done, hyper pistons, 204/214 flat tappet, 30lb injectors, hot wired walbro pump, pocket ported and intake matched heads, 100lb springs,rjc plate, ported stock turbo and throttle body. Thanks

other than the fact its going to spool like crazy, nope no problems.

I would say that with only 30lb injectors, you need to run a stock turbo as you will be out of fuel otherwise!

Thanks A.J. .. I thought so too ..Im hoping to eventually see a high 11 with my set up once its all tweaked. I had the trans done and i have a 2600 stall as well. Im trying to do all this and keep everything looking very stock I want my car to be like the small guy at a bar....but with a black belt ... Kinda like Patric Swazy in Road House..but prettier .lol

Your prob right...I do have an adjustable fpr.. so i can turn it up some if need be...Iam considering going bigger on the injectors but i wanna see how it runs like this 1st... I think they are good up to like 430 hp..its not a race car so i wont be taking it to the track ev weekend...I just want to spank some challenger srt/8s and vette's around here .

I would get some 42lbers just so you don't have to worry

I have a stock turbo on a 4.1. It spools before you hit the gas. I call it gas pedal lag. Its huge fun. 12.8s at BONE stock boost levels. Thats with a non adjustable stock wastegate actuator. I thought having a 3000 stall converter would be a problem but surprisingly its not. The converter is there for when I put on the 45a. Me thinks you'll like it.

That really makes me want to build a 4.1

Thanks thats the kinda feed back i wanna hear. That sounds evil i like it What injectors are u running if u dont mind me asking?

 

[Nasty Wendy]

60lbers.

 

[phillyvader]

60lbers.

Wow...and they are working good with a stock turbo?

 

[turbobob924]

hmm I never even considered a stock turbo on my 4.1

Eric Marshall bka 'TurboTweak' burned my chip. The 60lbers drive/idle like stockers. Of course this engine won't always have a stock turbo so the injectors were chosen to give room to grow.

Actually I put the stocker on there just to drive for a 'break in' period.
