Re: Black Mamba Gen V Xp P&P Heads Build in progress!!!!

Thanks, I didn't replace the Rack, just the pump, but I have done Racks on other cars, bleeding the air out has to be done or there is a chance of burning the pump out.

I'll make sure to do that thanks man

Re: Black Mamba Gen V Xp P&P Heads Build in progress!!!!

decided against NIC cam?

Yeah ima keep my XP Cam if someone buys it I'll get a XPZ or a IS3 go all out!! I'm really curious what numbers you put down with the NIC cam tho I just don't know any info on it that's why I'm on the fence with using one

I feel ya stretch the Fauk out of that 2.8 pulley with timing.. 330whp is a good start why no Gen V? Is your Gen 3 Ported?

Re: Black Mamba Gen V Xp P&P Heads Build in progress!!!!

yeah its ported, i have to open up the inlet for the N* tho

and everyone thinks a gen v is a 5 carat diamond. not worth the money

Re: Black Mamba Gen V Xp P&P Heads Build in progress!!!!

no intercooler. just e85

after this im gonna chill on it for a while, next big mod after that, probably heads/n2o
 
Re: Black Mamba Gen V Xp P&P Heads Build in progress!!!!

Is e85 equivalent to a intercoolered vehicle? And heads are a must for those numbers you want.. I was thinking of spray as well

Re: Black Mamba Gen V Xp P&P Heads Build in progress!!!!

intercooler is gonna be more efficient. colder air equals more power
