After long months of heavy work schedules we finally got some time to get the motor going. It has a pretty stout thump for a turbo motor. The Q16 fuel has a nice aroma coming out the exhaust.
The goal here was to fire the motor up on the "old" bank to bank ECU. We wanted to make sure there was no leaks and the motor ran smooth. Now we can swap ECU's to the sequential unit which requires harness mods.
In the comming weeks we will install the boost pipes, intercooler, intercooler chiller tank, boost controller. I hope the images turn out right I'm learning the photobucket thing

What size turbo do you have? Is the turbo going to change your RPM range, bet it does. Looking good! Thanks for keeping us posted. Tom

Tom, it is a turbonetics 78mm BB. I'm not real sure if it will change the rpm range that much. Our nitrous motor made all the in the 5000-6600 rpm range. We kept the turbo kind of mid size to make it spool easy. It would have be cool to put a 88mm on there. We think you are reaching the outer limits of the durabilty of the comobnation. We decided to limit our combonation 1000-1100hp because that is where the fuel pump, intercooler and some other componets are rated to. Heck, 8.60-8.80s @ 150mph in a 70yr old truck is fast enough for me

Mighty6,
I did not mean any harm on posting my downpipe if that's what you mean by picking on your engine.
Your 3 " downpipe will work just fine, if you later think the downpipe is holding back power,you can always whip one up in a couple hrs,you guys do great work!!!!!!!!!
I would love to get my damm engine running,I just do not have any time. Wife works a different shift than mine,kids are too young to be left alone while I work in the garage..
So, most of my life is watching the kids , working ,typing on the comp,living my life vicariously through your guys rides,then going to sleep. Yes ,my life sucks as far as getting anything going/done on my car & motorcycle projects.
Plus my wifes has depression & that makes it hard on all of the family.
So, Mighty6 ,,,,,,,,,,not meaning any harm. MBHD

A couple of things we are working on right now. The AMS 1000 boost controller will be used with co2 to controll the waste gate. You can ramp boost in and out depending track conditions or wheel spin. The air/water intercooler chill tank with a bilg pump installed.

This is the old school boost controller I have
Those work well on motorcycles. My brother has one on his bike. Can you ramp in boost?
Yes, you can,it has a lot of features.
Here is one installed in a street car from a local shop NRE. 2.30 seconds into video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ad8g9IfWxKI
Adjust for poor track conditions,etc. The MSBC-1 has the following features: *Six stage programmable boost control. *Useful for street or drag applications. *0-60 psi target boost range for each stage(1 psi increment) *Up to 18 different Ramp settings to control how fast boost is allowed to build. *Launch stage for drag racing. *Shift input for automatic stage selection for drag racing. *Front panel stage selection by driver. *Actual boost readout during boost control. *2 Analog data recorder outputs-Actual, and target level. *2 solenoid drive outputs-One for an increase boost output and the other for decrease boost output. *Can be used with single or dual port wastegates. *Uses electronic pressure sensor to monitor and control boost. *Will force wastegate to produce preset target boost level even with air density, load, or mechanical variations. *Can be used with manifold pressure only or external pressure source for control.

Mighty6 is fresh off the chassis dyno. I made some pretty decent numbers ...... 
I want to let MBHD sweet a little bit

717 rwhp @ 6200 rpm 813 rwtq 5000 rpm at 19 psi. The turbine housing a/r is too small .96 and would not let the motor make power past 6200 rpms. We have a 1.15 a/r housing on order that should make 50-100 more hp. An 88mm T6 combo would make more all out power but the responce is unreal with this combo.
It makes 70 more hp, 200 more tq. It is a beast compared to the nitrous motor.
My understanding is that our heads are the same.
Douglas has the first EFI turbo setup.

Do you run a pressure gauge on the exhaust( before turbo)?
Those are some fantastic #'s!! This combo will be way easier on the engine and on your pocket book over time. Holy snikees that is alot of power. Tom

45 PSI, that is alot of backed up exhaust. I see why you are going to the bigger housing. I'd love to see your dyno sheet.
What rpm range is the pull and I noticed from the video, the rpm's rise very fast. How many RPM per second is the dyno set for?
Are you going to be able to hold it down at the track? It will be fun. Tom
