Thanks :) The reason it backfires is it has very little exhaust and what it does have gets pretty hot and ignites unburnt fuel with fresh oxygen as the pressure drops.
It sprays methanol on top of E85. At 22psi with a bunch of timing out it doesnt detonate. We have extensive experience with non intercooled high power cars and trucks on various types of alcohol.
Methanol injection not only adds octane to the already high octane of the Ethanol, it absorbs latent heat in the air charge, chemically intercooling it. Dont worry we know what we are doing.
She is really built for the sand. Did take it to the strip once on the 67s and Justin could nto control it with the amount of suspension travel. Ran one low 10 at 70mph getting on off the gas a ton trying to keep it straight.
@dewhwut True. The truck isnt the easiest to strap and keep from spinning. On our dyno (English Racing, this was ETS) there are no issues and the power is the same. Converter is the main loss in the combo. Spinning on the dyno is usually always LESS with a dynojet.
There arent any negatives to the intercooler other than weight. Since this is built for sand drags, the weight we can save is worthwhile. More or less you got it, its because we can.
@randombk82894 It was holding at 20 lbs and he would actually have to switch to 1 very large turbo to get over 1300 hp worth of air fed into the engine like a GT4718. The added power from a turbo does not stack on top of the engine's naturally aspirated power. If the single turbo can only provide 500 hp and the motor itself puts out around 500, the peak is still around 500 and not 1000. It can only provide as much power as the amount of air it was intended to supply. Hope that helps clarify.
DSMlink is the choice for non-AEM cars. Our 1G drag car only uses the AEM and not a TCU. Check the caps in the TCU as they go bad as well, just like the stock computer will.
It's debatable at the air inlet temps you see on a twin 42R setup. The compressed air isnt anywhere near as hot as you'd think. It cant go less than ambient anyway, so spraying methanol that can drop air temp below ambient is a better way to go.
Few things. The amount of hp per pound is huge on a motor of this size. So it really could be out of flow by 30psi. Also the torque converter is a little lose for this kind of power. Was flashing close to 7k on our 1200hp pull. So we are losing quite a bit of hp though the converter and dont want to hurt the motor if it is really making over 1500hp at the crank and we cant see that on the dyno due to the Converter sucking so much hp. They are going to send it off and get it tightened up more.
Been thru this one a few times. It was minor and it was fixed, it was definitely not as bad as it looked. A plug from where we had had a meth jet backed out is all it was.
@youngron707 They are instant to about 2-3psi, then they have to be spun with engine rpm to make boost. Lag is all relative to turbo size versus engine size. You get the engine big enough and/or the turbos small enough its pretty instant.
@youngron707 This doesnt have any lag. Had to go to larger turbos because it spooled too fast on the last setup. It has a very loose torque converter which flashes. Properly engineered turbo systems on the right fuel and right amount of displacement dont lag. Lag is kind of an outdated concept to be truthful.
@dany080 ...Thnks pawns17 haha....it leans to the side because the torque of the motor lifts the truck...sitting in the truck looking from the back the motor torques to the right under power there for it twist the truck
@intercooler2 not that much since the only outside work was the machine work to the block...still not cheap to build but it helps when you can do all the fab work yourself;)...headers, piping, 4 links, all the fab work and tuning ect ect really cuts the cost down for a build
@mojoro Thats amazing man, im currently in the process of planning out a twin turbo Ls1 build, and I am actually thinking less boost and no intercooler now after seeing how quickly you got those turbos spinning. Is there a massive increase in intake temp though?
Very cool shit! Pushing the envelope....What it's all about. Bad ass monstrosity! I've just finished my lift so im moving on to different things....like spining my 42 semi tires...check me

That truck has so much Torque, the whole car is leaning right !! It's amazing ! OMG what a beast

@jav837
Methanol not water, but timing is the way you keep motors together. Less timing as the boost goes up and good fuel as well.
@ponytricks thats one HEALTHY th400. i know who to call when i get my project close to complettion
damn beast! 0:56 looks like it blew a weld on the charge pipe.

I love the particle board walls!
This is what all trucks should be making

All I can say is.... I WANT ONE. NOW. my God that is amazing!

Damn, that's one helluva truck.
Good job on the video! Need to head out there some day.........
Damn this thing is bad ass, is it still running today!? Would be cool to get a status report!
holy fuck this is the craziest chevy ive ever seen and i build a lot of them and see other ppls but this takes the cake for sure
Sweet christ that thing sounds sick when it makes boost.....nice work gentleman!!
i love it, twin turbo straight through a carburator. alot of mad ricers out there watchin this just hatin.

if those straps break you are goin for a hell of a ride
@hicktown26 I agree... it has the two best things a video can have: A big motor, turbos, and turbos :P
DSMlink is the choice for non-AEM cars. Our 1G drag car only uses the AEM and not a TCU. Check the caps in the TCU as they go bad as well, just like the stock computer will.
this is the baddest truck period love it need it
holy shit that truck is a fucking beast! wouldnt mind seeing it run
The whistles go WOO WOO!!!
@Powerstrokin2007
The backfire is the ethanol in the system
igniting. The EGTs are pretty low and the
exhaust stays pretty normal, 1000-1100*.
It's debatable at the air inlet temps you see on a twin 42R setup. The compressed air isnt anywhere near as hot as you'd think. It cant go less than ambient anyway, so spraying methanol that can drop air temp below ambient is a better way to go.
Actually that was the meth line blowing loose. The fabricator is one of the best in WA, no such thing as a crappy weld.
That wideband was showing a scary high a/f near the end.
i watched this truck drag race it is a beast!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And after 59.5 pulls.....1210hp. Congrats bro
THAT is a bonafied Badass!!
I love it!
Not sure why it showed the 13.4 part throttle possibly, but during the pulls it was 11.5-12:1

@CRAZCHEVBOY
No, we ran it this weekend at DuneFest actually. Ran a 4.5@80mph with a fairly fluffy track.
When that breaks... and it will break... its going to be spectacular
intercoolers are good but our goal was only 1200whp and to keep the reliability there it has a conservative tune
@youngron707

no at 0:47 on the black pipe leading towards the turbo closer to the camera, there is a hole in the pipe.
holy fuck look at that tork twist the whole truck with no prob
SWEET BABY JESUS! That thing is awesome......
DAMN!!! 7500RPM! that thing is nuts!
the sparks are from a small nail that was in the tire we noticed it after like the 12th pull
@dany080 ...Thnks pawns17 haha....it leans to the side because the torque of the motor lifts the truck...sitting in the truck looking from the back the motor torques to the right under power there for it twist the truck
I would love to see this thing run the 1/4 mile, just once.
0:55 huge leak.
Change the title, it's a lie. That thing is an all out race car, with the body of a truck! Haha.
Love it, that thing's insane.
@intercooler2 not that much since the only outside work was the machine work to the block...still not cheap to build but it helps when you can do all the fab work yourself;)...headers, piping, 4 links, all the fab work and tuning ect ect really cuts the cost down for a build
man, no intercooler, boy that would be hitting boost in like no time, thats fucking sweet as hey, i bet the turbo lag is minimal!
My God! That is freaking awesome, great job!
you tell me where you are n ill come n buy that truck!! props to the builder. hopefully no engine damage done .
يلعــــــــــن امممم العزم ياشيــخ
هههههههههههههههههههههههه
على بالهم خبل مربطينة بحبااال ....
@Duckyistrippin
We north of Eugene by 2 hours or so. Not sure on the name, but we have seen some really nice buggies at Coos and Winchester.
E85 reads higher than normal fuel. It's due to the stoichometric air fuel ratio difference.
Carburator + Turbos? First time I see that. Very impressive and powerfull although I'll let somebody else buy it.
Nope it is a Holley 850 built by CSU. I wouldnt say money isnt a problem, its all about spending it in the right places.
Fucking music to my ears!!!! Nasty Nasty truck!!!!
22psi on kill, 14-15 when running normal boost levels and driving around the dunes.
The sparks was a nail or rock in the tire. Still for sale. Story I hear is they'll let it go for a little less if the buyer is serious
i would say that the power gain from an intercooler would be more worth it then the weight saved from not having one.
what the FUCK!!!??? :) THATS MASSIVE AND MUCH RESPECT!!! I WANT THAT SHIT!
chuck norris when he is sneezing.
yeah a nail in the dyno tire
wow, you have no issues with temps with no intercooler. i know u using e85, awesome fuel, didnt know it woked that well tho. nice build!!!
damn u guys beating the hell out of it
I want to see him drive down the road and scare every person he drives by
@crazedcountryboy ....it has super scoops...look at the other videos of the truck, these tires are just to dyno it
It was a nail in the tires...they are just dyno tires.
dude my speakers arent even on that much and my ears feel like i was there.
We need Lift, We need Lift! *stomp throttle*
1:43 = OMFG!!!!!!!!!
Its a perfect grocery getter!
corn fed baby!!!!. nice soundin truck
this truck is now FOR SALE as of dec/1/09
just contact the maker of this video !
Everthink of building a awd street Killer maybe an old Blazer! I'd do it up to look like a 2wd sleeper the E.T's would be Increadible.
i love how every other comment is "you got a boost leak at :57 you should check that out" dude who gives a shit it rips even with a "boost leak"
need some new tires for the dyno hahaha sparks and all :). I didnt think even with that much CI those turbos would be so responsive...thats insane
@ponytricks
NP205 transfer case is commonly referred to as a "205" only.
that thing freakin screams!
the sparks are from the steel belts in the tires showing.
you know your shit !! great job !!
sir you owe me new speakers
@moonerdizzle never mind, stupid post. i was too distracted by the sexy boost sounds.
@StefSyros it has a methanol kit on it
e-85 is ethanol '' flex fuel'' 15%gas85%ethanol the truck would still benefit from a intercooler but cooling becomes an issue out in the dunes
look at that shit torque to the right
Dodge/Ford guys who want to make some SERIOUS power.
Damn man its a lot boost man nice truck..
Yes had tiny boostleak nothin to worry about there ! Price is 20k turn key
nice truck! looks like you have a vacum leak in the weld on the drivers side turbo intake tubing.
@mojoro Thats amazing man, im currently in the process of planning out a twin turbo Ls1 build, and I am actually thinking less boost and no intercooler now after seeing how quickly you got those turbos spinning.
Is there a massive increase in intake temp though?
@chriszelaya
chris, it runs a max of about 22.
@TheBonaparte666 100 yard sand drags baby
@HXTonner
Even though its dual Garrett GT4202s it still almost spools too fast thanks to the 540.
"So much torque, the chassis twisted..."
i am a ford nut. but honestly that is so scary, its cool!
Very cool shit! Pushing the envelope....What it's all about. Bad ass monstrosity! I've just finished my lift so im moving on to different things....like spining my 42 semi tires...check me
