with the radix . engine is built now so it would be different than yours and no 1/4 mile on new engine yet have to wait for snow to clear and there are no awd dynos anywhere near me
-
i really like my afr 225 made a huge difference on my stock engine , i couldnt beat a lightning then i switched cam and heads and was able to rip him a new one
-
i had my radix installed at 7500 and my trans blew at 36000 went to smaller pulley and heads and cam then engine went at 53000 but if u were to leave it as a stock radix i would think you should have no problem getting 80000 out of it if you dont drive like a mad man like me
-
thanks . i am going down to talk to the shop that does my work next week . i read thu the posts but may have missed it what are you using for a throttle body ?
-
cool thanks . guess i will need to spend even more money to make it work
but oh it should be worth it -
does it come with bigger injectors ?
what kind of boost can i expect with my 403 ?
does it have a bigger throttle body or is one on the way ?
is there a core return on my current 112 ?
-
i read that post but it didnt have the details i was lookin for , guess its still to new
-
has any one heard any hp numbers for the new radix ? and how it will be sold ? (bigger injectors that kinda thing ) also heard rumours of a 105mm throttle body from magna that will bolt up to our drive by wire

lined up with a 2005 ford diesel qc with a built motor and a twin turbo set up runnin 55lbs of boost i got him by a half truck out of the hole then he started to pull and at about 80 he passed me i stayed at his rear bumber until 110 when i blew by him
. i am only at 6psi i need to get that 2.75 pully for more boost -
from what i have read in car mags the T/A in smokey and the bandit had a "700hp nascar motor " not sure if they are just passing on rumours or if its true but that car hauled ass in the movie
-
yeah it should be . but knowing that it should be able to do it and wont is frustrateing and the motor seems fine no complaints in the computer its just the blower very odd
-
gee thanks mom . i didnt relize i would offend people by talkin about speed , its not like i weave in and out of traffic at 140mph . there happens to be a secluded section of divided highway where i live so we go there to do top speed runs . but i am not here to deffend what i do or appologize for it . i am just lookin for some help with a problem that seems to be unique to me
. cant we all just get along 
-
oh and on a dyno there is no wind resitance so i doubt you would pull that on the highway . takes a lot more power to do it in the real world
-
i called magnason and they said it must be belt slipage . that doesnt sount right to me cause it only happens at that one point . they said the bypass valve cant dump boost like a blow off valve
no one seems to have an answer to this problem or they just dont want to be resposible for me flyin down the highway at 150+mph in a truck -
actually i would like to pull 6000rpm in 4th , 4500rpm is just where it stops right now
-
i tried sliding the bypass valve back on its mounts this didnt do anything . should i try another spring ? someone said that 4400rpm in 4th was 140mph or so, this is the only time this happens and no one seems to know why
. has anyone with a radix pulled over 5000rpm in 4th gear ? there has to be an answer to this -
well i talked with westers he says its not a computer problem . bothe lyndon and davenport suggested that my by pass was opening under the high load at that speed . it does have some adjustment so i will try that tonight if not maybe a different spring . am i the only radix to go this fast ? i am only makin about 7.5 lbs of boost there are people on here that are running more than that with a radix .
-
hmm have to fix that then
-
thats what i thought but why would it be there GM has no reason to put it there and my truck is still pulling hard when it happens . hopfully westers has an answer cause that srt 10 needs a beating
-
cause i can
. but i have never heard of anyone else hitting a secondary limiter and our trucks dont even have 4th gear wot until you program them guess i will call westers see if he knows -
i have 4th gear wot on my truck but when i hit about 4500rpm i loose all boost and i cant hear the blower whine . any ideas what this could be or even happend to anyone else . it was happening before i rebuilt the engine
-
is it the complete kit or just the intake and blower ?
Vibration at higher speeds
in General SS
Posted
the vibration in mine got really bad so i took it to my dealer (we have a good relationship so they dont give me trouble about mods and speed ) and they changed the front diff side bearings and it was smooth for a while but 20000 later its back only at high speed tho .
