Exactly what got me started on the topic. Even more is the fact that a 198 and 2.2 share the same stroke, as does a 225 and 2.5, and with the right overbore they would all have the same bore as well.

This is part of the reason that I don't think 300 hp is unreasonable. If a 2.5 at 15 psi can make an easy 200 hp, than a 225 with 1.5 more cylinders should be able to make 300. Now, it may not be easy to make it as drivable or docile as the 2.5, but that can be worked on.

What makes the 2.2/2.5 so driveable and docile?

This pic shows the channels. The website reference by Rust collector doesn't talk about the proccess to do this, but at least the picture shows what I am talking about.

Thanks for finding it Rust collector.

There isn't anything special about the 2.2/2.5. I was meaning that with EFI and factory tuning it makes the car run very well both in and out of boost. With a carb and turbo on a slant 6, it will require a bit of work to make it docile and driveable when out of boost. Not saying it can't be done, just that it wont be a drop on. Most cars run well one place or the other, the well tuned motors run well in both.

Oh, ok

I can´t find the good pics now

Just remember to get boost from above the venturis, to seal the throttleshafts...

If the carb isn´t too worn, I don´t think you need it, for normal boost levels

that is a really cool link to the modification of the holley for boost.

2 thumbs up


unfortunately not an option for my turbo dakota though. after talking to the guy in Wisconsin pushing raw fuel out the throttle shafts at 18 psi and a couple calls to weber tech lines. I was told i can run 10psi all day long and anythig over 15 and i internally damage the webers. I handicapped my fuel system. to eliminate the temptaion of trying more.

My aeromotive pump only puts out 18 to 20 psi. with a static pressure of 4 psi for the webers and 15 psi of boost =maximum needed pressure of 19 psi. I dont have enough fuel to go over 14 or 15 psi. a designed limitation to stop me from blowing it to shreds.

I went looking to the unconventional. decided to go with a higher base compression from standard turbo motors of 8.1 or 8.2 I am running 9.5 . This produces other problems to contend with 1) heat and lots of it. 2) min octane requirements. I have done alot of leg work in this area and I am installiong a snow performance boost cooler. Going to spray a 50/50 mix of methanol and water into the charge air. lowers combustion temps dramatically. slows flame propagation across face of piston to give a more thorough burn and increases octane of fuel allowing more aggressive timing yeah and more boost which i can not use. I have been told it can raise 93 pump gas into the area of 120. online computers say at 9.5 base compression and 15 psi i need to run 116 octane fuel. If everything works as i have been told i should be able to get away with pump gas!!!!!! yip yip yipppeeee

her is a link http://www.snowperformance.net/products.asp?id=1

i am loking at the stage 2 set up. It takes a diect boost feed multiple trigger/engagement points. adjustable pressure and like nos multiple jet sizing to finish your tunability.

hoping this is the cure to my problems of higher base compressionand not bieng able to affford cam 2 in a daily driver.

ps.
after i limited myself i ran across the guy from rotaryshack that says he can alter a weber to handle 25 psi.

oh well if i cant get enough power at 15 psi then i can always buy another pump later on but I still think its going to be a blast to drive the way I have it set up now.


i am dak153ci [dakota 153 cubic inches] on aol instant messenger if you guys use that service. im me sometime.

i also use chris at T/U. hes a good guy. that bieng said have you ever considered shelling out the cash for one of the ballistic concepts gt series dual ballbearing turbos he sells????? hes got me hooked on the idea and i think the dart is where i am going to try one. just a thought.
