Can you please list the minimum engine upgrades to safely run? I already have a 1350 with piston/rods/spring upgrades. Would I need any bottom end upgrades?
To be able to run safely with a 1350 turbo that's the big question ?
I took a different approach to try bullet proofing time will tell .
Assuming you have compression ratio 12 and not for turbo application imo your asking for big trouble. Transmission will need 2nd gear upgraded also.
Clutch is another problem.
People don't realize including myself when the 1350 was being pieced together how much motor it really is with the turbo.
Working on ironing out some issues with the high egts i had and won't know for awhile if going in right direction or not.
10.5 compression 8.5lbs boost roasted one slipper clutch spinning rear tire @ 65 mph just twisting throttle in just over 100 miles. Second slipper put red Barnett springs in then toasted turbo.
I'm sure there will be more weak links coming.
I had a new slipper with red springs also and so far it has been a charm, with and without spray, I would highly recommend it for anyone trying the 150ish and above HP game and likes to twist the throttle. Haven't tested it on the track yet so let's see if it holds hard launches well Lane have you dynoe'd your Frankenstein yet? How much was it making before the turbine was raped?
brutal why u have your shift lite set for 8250 if u dont change gears for ages after it glows red , ,i think if u want faster change in the torque zone not after it been and gone ,im not a racer just what seems normal to me
Lane this thing is going to be just a wicked beast once you get it ironed out! At less it wasn't like my dyno run where I snapped the butterfly shaft on it! Are you hoping to have it all buttoned up this winter again?

I was aiming to call you about your shaft and just never got around to it. You were pretty lucky thats all that happened.
All i'm doin this winter is workin on the breathing part. I'm not tearing motor down just to take a look. Leakdown test was really good for only 200 miles on build so I guess time will tell if ceramics did its job or not.
bwahahahah trask has nothing to say for 5 pages,someone mentions something about a price and all trask can add to this conversation is PM SENT ,gee thanks for helpn out with thoughts and inovations ,lmao
Perhaps they are seeing all the other activity going on with forum members installing bigger turbos, SC units, Prochargers, etc. and need to put it out there ? :deal:
We have thought about it and we would we just have to have the demand for it. If we had 10 or so orders for it we would do it. That covers cost for tooling and set up time.
I think this is a must for me if I put the blower on a 1402. Even though I'm waiting for some results on the blower before I pull the trigger on that, you can consider me in if you have 9 and need a 10th.
